Boxing is a metaphor for hitting back and showing you can win in life.
I’ve definitely gotten more confident about showing my natural skin – even during breakouts. I’ve actually learned that a lot of people don’t love their freckles, but I’ve learned to love mine.
Our fan base in Toronto is crazy. Every single night we sell out. The fans come there and support us and they do a great job of coming out cheering loud and showing their passion and electrifying the building.
Major labels didn’t start showing up really until they smelled money, and that’s all they’re ever going to be attracted to is money-that’s the business they’re in- making money.
I think for me, as a gay person, I can convince a lot more people to be for gay marriage by not screaming at them and berating them and embarrassing them and belittling them, but by showing them that we’re all exactly the same.
My cooking philosophy, what I try to do, is to make a cuisine where the produce and the product shines, compared to some current trends that are maybe more adding additional things, like molecular cuisine, with a lot of additives and chemicals, which are now showing that they could be bad for your health.
Directing your first film is like showing up to the field trip in seventh grade, getting on the bus, and making an announcement, ‘So today I’m driving the bus.’ And everybody’s like, ‘What?’ And you’re like, ‘I’m gonna drive the bus.’ And they’re like, ‘But you don’t know how to drive the bus.’
When I put a bicycle wheel on a stool, the fork down, there was no idea of a ‘ready-made’ or anything else. It was just a distraction. I didn’t have any special reason to do it, or any intention of showing it or describing anything.
That’s what I always wanted Man Repeller to do – to change the way people actually think. Showing young girls that there are no rules.
A lot of my girlfriends are on Snapchat, and they were being scandalous with what they were showing on there. I keep it pretty simple. I give updates and share things.
In ‘The Big Chill,’ those characters are in middle age, thinking, ‘Oh, God, I’ve turned into my parents. I’ve failed.’ And in ‘Beside Still Waters,’ we’re showing the struggles of people who actually want to be like their parents and feel they can’t live up to their heights.
Most of life is showing up. You do the best you can, which varies from day to day.
In many ways, I was a typical young guy out of college. I was at Oxford, where every night there’d be a late showing of some great film.
After my eye test, I was told I was showing symptoms of glaucoma. I realised – but only in retrospect – that pains in my eyes and the feeling of pressure that I had been experiencing must have been because of that. I’d assumed they were symptoms of migraines.
In 1893, Miss M. Roalfe Cox brought together, in a volume of the Folk-Lore Society, no less than 345 variants of ‘Cinderella’ and kindred stories showing how widespread this particular formula was throughout Europe and how substantially identical the various incidents as reproduced in each particular country.
If I’ve got any authority in Hays, Mrs. Lake isn’t going to pay this town a cent of license for showing, and if any man attempts to stop this show, then just put it down that he’s got me to fight.
Obama is thoroughly mixed up with all these things he’s got. He’s got to solve Libya. He’s got to solve Afghanistan. He’s everywhere. And this nation, I don’t know why it’s not showing the leadership and capacity to attend different issues at the same time.
I’ve never really been one of those girls who’s scared of showing a bit of flesh.
I think at one point there were three television channels showing ‘Starcraft’ tournaments in South Korea. We were so unprepared for its success.
The engagements I had with Queen Elizabeth and Prince Charles were about reaching out and showing respect to the unionist people. I also recognised that when someone like her makes acts of reconciliation as she did do at the Garden of Remembrance in Dublin, she is 100% behind the peace process.
Men spend their whole lives showing that they’re strong and silent. They fight for independence the way women struggle to connect.
The best thing America can do to put the Middle East on a path that leads to more democracy, less terrorism, human rights and economic growth is to get the hell out of there while showing an absolute crystal clear determination to defend American interests with force whenever they are threatened.
There are some persons in this world, who, unable to give better proof of being wise, take a strange delight in showing what they think they have sagaciously read in mankind by uncharitable suspicions of them.
I spent my entire childhood going ‘look at me, look at me, look at me,’ before realising I needed someone to look at me for more than just what I was showing off for.
I guess people don’t think that young girls or young artists have opinions, but I’m so glad that there’s artists like Lorde and Raury and Kehlani because they’re showing other people that young people can have an opinion and a voice and do really well with it. I’m glad I can be one of those people.
For me it’s like really exciting to see all my fans showing this love to me. So it’s a responsibility to me to go out there every game and try to be a good player try to show good things because my fans expect that I do something special.
I believe showing various characters is my job and I try to take as many challenges as possible in my dramas and films.
I’m really not interested in showing me or playing me. My gift as an actor, given to me, is to be able to become other people.
In the past, I was free to write in quiet and in the space wherever my desk was at. I could leave my instruments out. In the past, my writing was super private; I never liked showing my work at its earliest stages.
I would have to say I’m bored with the standard rock, guitar solos, but I’ve done it for five albums now, and this time I wanted to go in a completely different direction. I wasn’t interested in showing off any more.
Everybody sees me as this sullen and insecure little thing. Those are just the sides of me that I feel it’s necessary to show because no one else seems to be showing them.
The desire of talking of ourselves, and showing those faults we do not mind having seen, makes up a good part of our sincerity.
You don’t accomplish a lot by changing people’s opinions by shoving facts down their throat. I think you change people’s opinions by opening your heart up and showing the parallels between you and another person. That’s how people’s ideas shift.
Alfred Hitchcock had to find ways to create tension without showing it, but now with computer-generated effects you can show anything.
There’s no question that many more women artists are showing worldwide now than they were when I was a young woman, and that’s really great.
Somebody ought to tell him his ambition is showing.
Eighty percent of success is showing up.
Anyone who relishes art should love the extraordinary diversity and psychic magic of our art galleries. There’s likely more combined square footage for the showing of art on one New York block – West 24th Street between Tenth and Eleventh Avenues – than in all of Amsterdam’s or Hamburg’s galleries.
There are amazing acne treatments and creams out there, but sometimes we’re just hormonal, and there is nothing we can do about our ‘friends’ showing up out of nowhere.
The U.S. Olympic spirit award is an award that is given to an athlete who embodies the Olympic spirit in more ways than just on the playing field, in showing incredible perseverance, in overcoming obstacles, and what we wanted to do is have everybody can vote on-line.
I like silence. Aesthetically, I feel strangled by the fast cutting and a wall of sound. And I think showing black people thinking onscreen is radical.
I don’t have a problem showing my legs!
What fun is life without a bit of showing off?
I never want to pigeonhole myself or get typecast. I’m looking forward to my career and showing all of my range as an actress, and I’m looking at other mediums, too. I’m a theater actress first. And I cannot wait to return to the stage.
It has become an accepted tenet that kids will rarely listen to their parents but seldom fail to imitate them. Communicating the message has never been a good substitute for ‘showing up’ and embodying the message.
I enjoy the crafts on the show enormously, too, when we have experts in showing how to make things. You watch them thinking you’ll go home and do the things yourself, which is fun. Some I have done myself later on.
It was part of the reason I almost didn’t go public with my diagnosis – I was embarrassed. I felt, ‘Oh, I’ve always talked about exercising. And I got cancer.’ And then I realized it’s a great example of showing that cancer can hit anyone at any time.
My version of a stress dream is, really, showing up on a concert stage with a drum set and not knowing the chart.
Showing fear is like having comedic timing because I think actors have a tendency to go way over the top with it, and that sort of loses steam for what’s going on. The audience sees right through that and laughs at you, so it is something that I’m aware of.
Sometimes showing off produces results.
It’s too bad that there aren’t as many light comedies around in the movies as there were when I was making pictures like ‘The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer.’ The boys are just not writing them. Many writers are more serious now than they used to be, and that’s showing up in all phases of entertainment.
