I didn’t like books where people played on a sports team and won a bunch of games, or went to summer camp and had a wonderful time. I really liked a book where a witch might cut a child’s head off or a pack of angry dogs might burst through a door and terrorize a family.
When I was a kid, I had a period in my life when I was eight or nine when I was so scared of dying that I wouldn’t go out of our house for a whole year. I refused to step out of the door because I thought something would happen. I had all these compulsive thoughts or whatever, and my head was really messed up.
We all serve a purpose. My purpose isn’t to be rejected. My purpose isn’t to think small or to be introverted. This door closed is literally pushing me to the next door.
I don’t live in this soul music bubble. I love Young Thug, Drake, Kendrick Lamar. I even heard that Kendrick was a fan of my music. Hopefully there’s a door open for us to do music together. He’s one of my favorite artists. I love Jazmine Sullivan, Lianne la Havas, Usher, Ginuwine. It goes further than classic soul.
Aunt Marion was right… Never marry a musician, and never answer the door.
On an awards-show day, I can play basketball, go in, take a shower and put on a tux – it takes me three minutes to put on a tux – and be out the door in 15 minutes.
I think I tend to try to let a woman walk through a door first, and I walk on the outside on the street. But that’s probably because I’m an ancient creature.
I live by myself. I come in the door, I can throw my stuff on the floor. I can leave the dishes.

I’m like the girl next door… I just have a bad streak.
Earning a certificate or degree, or both, after high school opens the door to countless economic opportunities.
About 25 years ago, I was in an apartment, and next door, they put on the radio, so I struck the wall with my fist, but they did not put the radio down. I took a tool and banged until I made a hole through the wall. It was like a comedy movie.
When you say a situation or a person is hopeless, you are slamming the door in the face of God.
I’ve been blessed, acne never knocked on my door. I think I look pretty darn good.
If you’re walking with your lady on the sidewalk, I still like to see a man walking street-side, to protect the lady from traffic. I grew up with that, and I hate to see something like that get lost. I still like to see that a man opens the door. I like those touches of chivalry that are fast disappearing.
That’s one thing I find about having children – it does unlock a door that separates you from other women who’ve had children.
I work very hard, but when God opens that door for you – when life opens that door for you, I should say – I think it’s important to be giving, to return the love back.
My door is open.
I have made it totally clear to the players that my door will always be open.
Democracy, obviously, is something we don’t want to give up, but it does create chaos. It means the guy next door can do what he wants, and it creates a collision of thinking. In cities, that means people build whatever they want.
I used to think that deadlines should be ignored until the product was ready: that they were a nuisance, a hurdle in front of quality, a forced measure to get something out the door for the good of the schedule, not the customer.
Listen; there’s a hell of a good universe next door: let’s go.
Every movie that I’ve had to really knock down the door for has been an enormous success for me. Not just like a financial success but a real personal success.
It doesn’t matter how successful you are in this business, it’s tough to get through the next door.
Open your refrigerator door, and you summon forth more light than the total amount enjoyed by most households in the 18th century. The world at night, for much of history, was a very dark place indeed.
The best pop music is the songs that a group of people can dance to, but you can also listen to in your bed and cry. That’s something obviously that The Beatles started and… so having that darkness there opens another door.
When the Tea Party comes to town, compromise goes out the door.
One of the things Goldman teaches you is, don’t be the first guy through the door because you’re going to get all the arrows.
Marc Jacobs is full of creative people and Louis Vuitton is again a name on the door, a name that has existed for many years but I’m a collaborator there and I bring in other people, other artists and I work with a great creative design team.
I was knocking on people’s doors. I knocked on a white couple’s door, and I told them, I says, ‘Excuse me, but I’ve been born again.’ The guy said, ‘Hon, call security. There’s a little black guy here talking about how he been born again. Call the police.’
Never speak to an invalid from behind, nor from the door, nor from any distance from him, nor when he is doing anything. The official politeness of servants in these things is so grateful to invalids, that many prefer, without knowing why, having none but servants about them.
One of the tough things about being an actor, probably the hardest thing, is getting your foot in the door, and my father handled that for me at a very early age.
I used to always sing my way into the movies and the basketball games or whatever. I’d sing for whoever’s on the door, and they’d let me in. I used to think I was Nat King Cole back in the day, you know. So I’d sing something like, ‘Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa, men have named you,’ and they’d let me in.
Basketball did not save my life. God saved my life. It’s not basketball. But God saved my life because he blessed me through basketball. He opened the door from basketball.

When I need to think of, like, a peaceful scene or something, I think of my back garden in summertime. And whenever I hear the lawnmower next door, I always think it’s really peaceful.
If you shut the door to all errors, truth will be shut out.
If you do something really well, the entire world beats a path to your door. The number three, number five, number 400 player gets nothing. It’s almost a winner take all.
Food was always a big part of my life. My grandfather was one of 14 kids, and his parents had a pasta factory, so as a kid, he and his siblings would sell pasta door to door. After he became a movie producer, he opened up De Laurentiis Food Stores – one in Los Angeles and one in New York.
Making money is not gonna change anything about what I am, except I won’t answer the door.
Charity begins at home, and justice begins next door.

I won’t admit to having a poster of Borg on my bedroom door. But I certainly found him to be someone who got me way more into tennis.
You have to think there’s a reason for everything. When a door closes another door opens.
When you have less revenue coming in the door, you have more money going out the door. You have to find ways of trimming.
As far as I’m concerned, I’m now in the business of making spiritual records and using my voice for that purpose. I’m not going to be singing songs that I made in the past. I closed the door on that incarnation of Sinead O’Connor.
The government does things like insisting that all encryption programs should have a back door. But surely no one is stupid enough to think the terrorists are going to use encryption systems with a back door. The terrorists will simply hire a programmer to come up with a secure encryption scheme.
I headed out to have a breather at the stage door, dressed in my tramp costume. I had my bowler hat between my feet and there were passers-by, and one of them turned back and said, ‘Do you need help, brother?’ And $1 fell into my hat!
To wake up in England and have the newspaper on your front door with a headline that says, ‘Ozzie’s Beach Whale of a Daughter,’ doesn’t really do much for your self-esteem at all.
