My optimism is not based primarily on the successful march of democracy in recent times but rather is based on the experience of having lived in a fear society and studied the mechanics of tyranny that sustain such a society.
When I first moved to New York, all I did was musical theater. That’s what I studied at Carnegie Mellon University.
My first contact with game theory was a popular article in ‘Fortune Magazine’ which I read in my last high school year. I was immediately attracted to the subject matter, and when I studied mathematics, I found the fundamental book by von Neumann and Morgenstern in the library and studied it.
I was born with a serious spiritual consciousness and for many years studied different paths.
It’s been mentioned or suggested that Paradise will not be well studied, because it’s about this unimportant intellectual topic, which is religion.
I don’t think the Constitution is studied almost anywhere, including law schools. In law schools, what they study is what the court said about the Constitution. They study the opinions. They don’t study the Constitution itself.
I hate how things must be classified. How this is applied to musicians implies that they somehow contrive their products and have studied the demographics of the audience.
I haven’t studied acting formally, so my ‘university’ was watching a lot cinema.
I studied archaeology.
One day, I woke up, and I was on CBS in front of millions of people, and I’m like, ‘Oh man, I don’t know anything.’ The only thing I’d ever technically studied was filmmaking.
I studied Japanese language and culture in college and graduate school, and afterward went to work in Tokyo, where I met a young man whose father was a famous businessman and whose mother was a geisha. He and I never discussed his parentage, which was an open secret, but it fascinated me.
I think that rather than condemning Islam, Islam needs to be studied by those who are sincere.
I feel really honoured and happy to be part of the P. C. Chandra team. It’s my first jewellery endorsement, and because I have also studied jewellery design, it’s something very close to my heart, and I feel very happy being associated with the brand.
I’ve studied psychology. I’m fascinated by the human mind, and I love people.
I studied music; I studied theater. I went to school for it, so I kind of treat it in that manner, that whether or not I can hang out, I’ve always been the one to go in my room and chill.
Power is getting things done without having to demonstrate that you can bulldoze it through. I’m most effective when I’ve studied an issue, when I can make a credible argument, and then bring people along.
I’ve never studied anything formally. I was excluded from school at the age of 17, so I am an autodidact, which is a word that I have taught myself.
I went to college and studied theater; I went to a theater conservatory. I live in New York because I wanted to do plays and still do plays.
I studied at Carnegie Mellon. I went there with a bunch of really, really talented kids.
For the first ten years after I got out of graduate school, I studied success. I read every book I could get my hands on and took every training I could find, and that allowed me to become an expert in this area. I learned how to create high self-esteem and success in my own life and in the lives of others.
I don’t think I’ve had any adversity. I mean, yeah, I studied hard in school, but that’s not adversity. Everyone in the Nuba Mountains has faced incredible adversity, every single one of them. Just to finish primary school is an incredible challenge.
I never actively went out and studied the American accent. I just came over here to the States, and it was something I was able to do. Like, I never struggled with it.
The issue of civil rights was too much for the establishment to handle. One of the chapters of history that’s least studied by historians is the 300 to 500 riots in the U.S. between 1965 and 1970.
After high school in 1969, I was appointed to the Air Force Academy. In ’73, I studied for my postgraduate degree and became a USAF pilot in 1974. After my discharge in 1980, I became a commercial pilot and flew my first airline flight at Pacific Southwest Airlines in 1980.
I think of myself as a Russophile. I speak the language and studied the nation’s literature and history in college.
I went to Princeton to major in comparative literature. I never went to film school, but I studied storytelling across mediums – poems, literature, film, and journalism.
Economists who have studied the relationship between education and economic growth confirm what common sense suggests: The number of college degrees is not nearly as important as how well students develop cognitive skills, such as critical thinking and problem-solving ability.
Here’s the thing: I fell impossibly in love with the Internet from the minute I saw it in action in the early 1990s. From that moment on, I have studied it, analyzed it, reported on it, and, mostly, have not been without it as a part of my daily life since.
I think it’s always good to read local authors or relevant books. In Egypt, I studied hieroglyphics and read everything about the mummies.
I studied marine biology, even taught marine science before I got into animation, so I had an interest in that field and those animals.
I studied B.Sc electronics to be an engineer and later did masters in communication and advertising. I loved engineering for what it could accomplish to make our lives easier. But, I realised that it was not my passion.
I studied philosophy at Columbia, then dropped out to do drama at the Lee Strasberg Institute.
I’m quite strong for a girl. I studied karate growing up – I’m a brown belt – and me and my sister used to beat the crap out of each other.
The sense of acting being teamwork was a mentality that I took from school: I studied with wonderful people, and I wanted them to be proud of me.
I worked at chemistry and developing a style of play on both sides of the ball and studied success and winning.
I have studied religion, and I have concluded that there is some power. We don’t understand it.
The bubble, as investing phenomenon, has been well studied ever since the 17th-century tulip bulb frenzy. Its counterpart in bear markets is not well understood.
I’ve never studied the classics, but I’d like to. My teacher offered to show me how the Greeks were able to sculpt someone perfectly. From there, you can go off and experiment – sort of like jazz. Once you learn to play anything, you can break the form and go and do something even bigger.
I studied journalism at university, and I started a little bit of work on a woman’s magazine called Minx that was aimed at 18- to 24-year-olds.
I acted in high school and studied at the British American Drama Academy in Oxford for one summer. I minored in theater, and I was always acting growing up, but really, I was just more interested in the comedy of it all.
I actually did Shakespeare when I was at North Carolina School of the Arts. I studied with Gerald Freedman and Mary Irwin – it was fun; I enjoyed it.
I wouldn’t have any fears about coming to England because I have played against English sides in the Champions League and studied the English game.
I went to Mexico for three months after college and studied Spanish there. And I went to Cuba and studied at the University of Havana. I loved studying in other countries.
I go four- wheeling in my truck. I also like to fish, cook, do stuff around my house. I even studied fencing for awhile.
Education is a cause very close to me. What matters is encouraging my fans to focus on their education, because only an educated generation can ensure a better future. Even when I was on tour, I did my homework and studied.
When I was young, I played the piano and studied classical music and jazz. I wanted to be a concert pianist, and if I’d devoted myself to it, I could have been. But it would have been too much work and a very lonely life.
My brother Gary, who was my coach, five years my elder, studied human movements at Queensland University in Brisbane. We used to train together every day, and we’d train for so long that at the end of a session, we would physically almost collapse.
To try to be at once a Lithuanian yeshiva and a New England prep school: that was the unspoken motto of the Maimonides School of Brookline, Mass., where I studied for 12 years.
So when my film career took off, I always felt like I was trying to play catch-up because I hadn’t studied acting before. I didn’t know how to manage money or my career. When I look back, I think I was a little bit shell-shocked.
I was probably a B student in high school, but it wasn’t until I got to college that I said, ‘Oh! This is what it’s all about.’ And then I became an A student. I studied journalism in college and that’s what really kicked it into high gear for me.
Designing was always something I was interested in. I studied fashion design in high school as well as how to sew.
This is something I haven’t told many people, because it’s embarrassing. We always used to catch flies with our hands. I was the only one who could catch ’em. One-handed, two-handed. I actually studied flies. I’d watch ’em. How do you catch flies? They fly up. If I can catch that, I can catch anything.
