Neapolitans are extremely empathetic, whereas the typical northern attitude is more about not showing or sharing your feelings.
Writing about the future and the past is less a way of dramatizing change than of showing, by way of contrast, what abides.
I struggled with being in the public eye, losing my anonymity when my star rose quickly in the late 90’s. But I need the challenge of showing up and getting up there to spill my guts and connect with my loyal folks.
If someone is having a bad day, I find you can change it pretty quick by just showing that you care.
People want to do good things, they just need a prod sometimes, and what Twitter and other technologies that connect people are showing us is that if you make it a little easier for people then you will enable them to do what they want to do, to help people out, to form groups and do good.
I don’t really have an issue with showing certain parts of my body. I’d rather not, but it’s not a big deal. Growing up in Sweden, it’s natural over there.

People come up and say, ‘Thank you’ for showing a black family loving their masculine-presenting child and for undoing the myth of black people as being rabidly homophobic.

I was showing up at the studio all the time with no bag, being like, ‘I don’t want to have a backpack. I’ve had backpacks my whole life, and I’m a grown man now. I should have something better.’
What’s wrong with trying hard and showing up and being good at your job? We really need to look at ourselves and say we need to reevaluate this. We need to reevaluate that women who ask for a pay raise or ask for a promotion – it’s actually an okay thing. It’s okay to be ambitious; it’s okay to be over-prepared.
I hope the business sense that artists like Jay-Z and Nelly are showing rubs off on the young players. I want somebody to stand up and say, Look, these kids got it going on. We want to be a part of them.
Being the first female Doctor and showing children that their heroes in shows don’t always look the same is a huge honour for me.

I’m addicted to showing people what they don’t get to see, as far as the everyday lifestyle of an NBA player.
The best way to find a balance between doing your best and showing that you’re ready for more is by developing other people. As tempting as it is to hoard knowledge, don’t. Instead, make certain that there are others who know how to do important aspects of your job.
I do try to separate my personal activism – showing up at a demonstration or something – from what I write.
Vintage rock T-shirts are the best. I have about 50 or 60, most bought on eBay for a few pounds. You can always tell which ones are genuine because there’ll be lots of pictures showing you the holes.
We defeated communism in part by showing the world that a commitment to democracy and expanding economic opportunity makes people’s lives better and nations more secure, meaning our commitments overseas also makes us stronger and safer here at home.
So much research has been done showing that the woman is the most vulnerable but also the biggest strength leading to economic progress.
Some people criticise me for not being animated enough, for sitting in stands and not showing any passion. I come down, get involved in a couple of situations and all of a sudden, it’s a slightly different angle.
Showing up in the lives of children is everything.
Once your computer is pretending to be a neural net, you get it to be able to do a particular task by just showing it a whole lot of examples.
That’s the joy of getting to be an actor – getting to play all kinds of different roles and showing so many different sides of yourself.
I would say get to know somebody who isn’t exactly like you and doesn’t come from the same background as you, educate yourself and then just keep showing up. Finding ways to show up for people and your voice will come out of that relationship and out of your pursuit to seeing people who aren’t exactly like you.
The winter of 1991 found me stunned and shivering in the aftermath of an imploded love affair. Being 26, I flung myself actorishly on London and, without any intimations of my own ludicrousness, spent two years showing God what I thought of Him by letting myself go.
Our daughter was born in Chicago, and she’s already showing it. The temperature has to be approaching zero for her to wear a hat.
For a country that makes such a fuss about love on the 14th of February, America has a funny way of showing it on the other 364 days of the year.
People throw insults at you, and sometimes they hit a nerve – and it’s about not showing that, because they will pick on that. Don’t feed the trolls!
I get no satisfaction just showing myself in every corner of the world every week.

For me, the act of telling the story and showing it to somebody is almost gravy.
It used to happen in villages and towns in China that they would have – I guess you’d call them beauty contests – where all of the women of a particular village or town would be seated behind these screens or curtains with only their feet showing.
People like to say that my work is about making the invisible visible, but that’s a misunderstanding. It’s about showing what invisibility looks like.
For me, the kitchen is the most special room in the house. It’s a place for adventure – not drudgery, but discovery, sharing and showing off with friends, trying new ideas.
I enjoy just showing people other sides of me, especially everyone always sees me in my helmet and ski suit. It’s nice to just show everyone me, just me in my everyday clothes or just me in high heels or just me not in my ski gear, basically.
Movies don’t sit in the theaters for an entire summer like they did in 1982. Now you’ve got a two- or three-week shelf life so you need to have that awareness right off the bat. And in order to make a lot of people know about your movie, you need to be out there banging the drum and showing your stuff.
I just showed up at the Comedy Store. You keep showing up, and you keep showing up, and eventually, somebody notices.
I’d look at one of my stonecutters hammering away at the rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet, at the hundred and first blow it would split in two, and I knew it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before.
If a hero is a person on which you’ve made an explicit choice model yourself, mine is my father for showing me how to live a life of substance.
The effect of letting someone sue without showing harm is obvious: It makes it really easy to sue.
The world’s my oyster. But it worries me, all this showing off about being happy. Life is so precarious, and I know terrible things can happen. At the moment, everything is happy.
Baby girls, as young as 12 months old, respond more empathically to the distress of other people, showing greater concern through more sad looks, sympathetic vocalisations and comforting. This echoes what you find in adulthood: more women report frequently sharing the emotional distress of their friends.
I’m a huge advocate of showing my relationship online because love does exist, and I think it’s so important for our generation to know that love will win. No matter who you love, what you love, it will win.
One of my great goals when I first started taking photographs or showing them publicly is that people might want one for over their desk. That’s my goal.
Cirque du Soleil distinguished itself by being a circus with no animals. Before then, circus was partly about showing how man can tame other species.

In the end, a commitment to the economic health of the country will go a long way in showing voters who is focused on the real stuff.
People who have car collections – I never understood that. I always thought that was unnecessary. It’s not beautiful, it’s not creative. It’s just showing how much money you’ve got.
I shy away from showing cruelty on the page. A lot of the violence in my books actually happens off stage. The police come on to the scene after the event has occurred.
There’s enough data showing that the fitter you are, the better you eat, the more likely you are to stay healthy longer.
There’s obviously a group who enjoys what Tyler Perry is putting out there. And why fault them? And there’s a group that loves the things that Spike does. So they should enjoy that, too. Is it my taste? Maybe not, but I’m not going to fault anybody for doing what they’re doing as long as people are showing up.
