We can’t just pay attention to women who look fantastic in a photograph, because there are a lot of people that have fantastic things to say that don’t look like 25-year-old white models.
We have one planet in our solar system that’s habitable, and that’s the Earth, and space travel can transform things back here for the better. First of all, by just having people go to space and look back on this fragile planet we live on. People have come back transformed and have done fantastic things.
The guys on the stunt team are really fantastic. It’s really funny, because for all the aggression they have to display on screen, they’re actually really happy, good- natured people.
All the papers contained nothing but fantastic stories about the war. However, for several months we had been accustomed to war talk. We had so often packed our service trunks that the whole thing had become tedious.
My mother was the most creative, fantastic person and would come up with great things for us to do. She’d buy art supplies and all of us would sit around painting. I was lucky.

Australians are a fantastic bunch of people but the attention can be overwhelming for someone like me.
One of the fantastic things about books, fiction or non-fiction, is the way they give you a chance to look into different lives.

I love L.A. I love America; it’s fantastic. The people are friendly, and everyone’s always smiling. The sun is always shining. My only problem is choosing what color shorts to wear.
Finally, the day came where I put stuff online for the first time ever. The Lil Dicky video got a million views the first day. It was one of the best days of my life. It was the day I learned I was who I thought I was. It was a fantastic I-told-you-so moment.
Bitcoin as an asset class is brilliant, as a means of payment, fantastic.
The Internet, as a platform, I think is really fantastic.
The idea of building a Near Eastern house in Honolulu must seem fantastic to many.
I spend a lot of time with the grandchildren. They love it when we sing together. It’s fantastic to hear them, and they really can sing. I don’t talk to them so much about ‘Abba’ and the past, but as they get older, they will become more aware.
In terms of animation, animators are actors as well. They are fantastic actors. They have to draw from how they feel emotionally about the beat of a scene that they’re working on. They work collaboratively.
I found myself doing all these action-adventure movies, and it’s been a fantastic experience, and I’ve learnt a lot.
My characters do have some fantastic taste in men.
Manchester was a fantastic place to go out in. There were 10 clubs with world-class cabaret and comedians. You’d go in and Tom Jones might be singing, or Shirley Bassey or Engelbert Humperdinck.
Mike Leigh taught me about making choices – as an actor, you choose between being honest and clever, and with Mike, it’s always about being honest. I learned how to behave on a film set from Jim Broadbent. He was a great example of someone with a fantastic career who kept his feet on the ground.
Every time you get told you get a part, it’s just wonderfully soothing and incredibly fantastic and healing. You have a bad day at school, you come home and get told you’ve got a part in something, and it’s just like, ‘Yeah, it’s all worth it’.
A friend forced me to watch ‘The Lord of the Rings,’ and even though it was a fantastic movie, I could only watch one.
I sang ‘American Pie’ a lot in my stage set. It had a knack of uniting an audience in a sing-along. It’s a clever song about American history but wrapped in a fantastic tune.
My maternal grandmother made fantastic ox tongue with velvety roasted potatoes. She cooked sweet red cabbage and lovely cauliflower with butter and bread crumbs.
I have a fantastic relationship with money. I use it to buy my freedom.
The freedom you feel when you’re actually in control of your own music is fantastic.
I shared a dressing room with Alan Shearer. I used to watch the opposition looking at him, and they’d be thinking they need to score more than one because Shearer is going to score, and he scores every game. That psychological advantage is fantastic.
It was fantastic playing Conan; it was such an experience to go out of the country and be this barbaric human savage child for a month or so. It was a blast and definitely a great experience.
Making movies is difficult and you get disorientated sometimes – even when you’re working with fantastic talent.
Dane DeHaan, certainly, is kind of the best friend I’ve made through acting, in terms of another actor. He’s fantastic.

I’m reasonably headstrong about what I believe in, and what I go for, and I’ve got fantastic people around me who give me great support and advice.

It’s fantastic that ‘Strictly’ is beating ‘The X Factor’ for many reasons – but one of the main reasons is I think it’s a fantastic piece of variety television. It is live, varied TV whereby we are really hanging ourselves out by the seam of our pants.
At the risk of sounding too cliche, I found a really fantastic church. That is what keeps me grounded.
My mother was devoted to helping people – with my father’s money! – who had great voices but didn’t have the financial means to study music. He and my mum gave away dozens of music scholarships, and my mum opened a school in town, introduced opera to children and created fantastic programmes.
Making movies is not rocket science. It’s about relationships and communication and strangers coming together to see if they can get along harmoniously, productively, and creatively. That’s a challenge. When it works, it’s fantastic and will lift you up. When it doesn’t work, it’s almost just as fascinating.
In a crazy world where he would get nominated, I’d like to see Obama run against Herman Cain. That would be fantastic. If Herman Cain became president, there’d be a certain sort of morbid curiosity for me.
We were on the island of Hawaii. I think I was there three months. It was fantastic. It is not much different than films. It depends on the television show but much of television today is as good or better than most films.
Legolas is fantastic to dress up in – of course he is – and I’ve had the best time playing him.
The 2012 Olympics is a fantastic incentive for everyone to help leave a sporting legacy and show that Britain is truly a great sporting nation.
I think that we’re in a really amazing time, where there are really a lot of really fantastic female actresses and comedians. I imagine there’s just a lot of opportunity for women to have powerful roles. Or it’s just that there’s more women writing TV. Women tend to maybe write strong women.
I love traffic. It’s fantastic. New York traffic is so relaxing.
I consider a good dinner party at our house to be where people drink and eat more than they’re meant to. My husband is a really fantastic cook. His mother is Italian and if you walk into our house, we assume you’re starving.
I think the old classic Porsches are fantastic, with those lovely curved lines, but I don’t like the modern ones at all.
Acting can be a very reactive profession. Acting is a fantastic thing, and it’s my life, but writing is also part of me too, so I did it, and in so doing, took responsibility for my own life.
There are some fantastic parts for older actors.
Musically, there’s a movement called the flatted fifth that’s really evil-sounding. It was outlawed by the Catholic Church during the Middle Ages. That movement is what gives you a real evil sound that conjures up dark, fantastic images. It’s like an audio horror movie. It personifies what a horror movie is about.
Because women are more than the people who raise our children, they are fantastic leaders in their own rights in our community, and we want to give them the same safe environment, as we would expect.
The privilege, and the challenges, of taking on Black Widow have never been lost on me. I worked on the first ‘Spiderman’ game as well as ‘Fantastic Four,’ and I had always wanted to be able to tell more of a character-driven comic book story than was possible to fit into a game narrative.
I think that George Lucas’ ‘Star Wars’ films are fantastic. What he’s done, which I admire, is he has taken all the money and profit from those films and poured it into developing digital sound and surround sound, which we are using today.
