When something bothers me, I try to learn about it.
I am human, when people write bad stuff about me it bothers me, but I know that will never end.
Personally, I take it really seriously and it bothers me when I don’t play well.
With ‘Hereditary’, I wanted to make a film about what bothers me about life.
Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve worried too much. It always bothers me because sometimes you end up worrying more about the worry and you are not resolving things that are right there in front of you. I have been like that all my life, and it’s hard to change.
It bothers me that people who should know better believe a glossy magazine fantasy.
One thing that really bothers me is when a young black person speaks or leads a conversation, and afterward a white person says, ‘You’re really articulate.’
I don’t make that hard and fast distinction between political and nonpolitical writing. I write about what bothers me.
I can, and do, walk the street. No one bothers me or anything, because most people wouldn’t know who I am.
I think any criticism bothers anybody. I get my back up when I hear stuff that I think the people don’t know what they’re talking about – understanding that I can improve in a lot of different areas and the team can improve.
It bothers me that I won’t live to see the end of the century, because, when I was young, in St. Louis, I remember saying to Marilyn, my sister by adoption, that that was how long I wanted to live: seventy years.
It no longer bothers me that I may be constantly searching for father figures; by this time, I have found several and dearly enjoyed knowing them all.
The competitor to be feared is one who never bothers about you at all, but goes on making his own business better all the time.
I guess what bothers me so much about what I now see going on in both Washington and in Texas is an effort to keep people from finding out about the mistakes of lawmakers and then when they’re uncovered, an effort to fool people and pretend there was nothing wrong.
I don’t like Jay Hieron very much. He just bothers me, the way he talks, and he thinks very highly of himself.
What bothers me about red carpet, particularly Cannes, is that it’s an extremely important festival where stunning films are shown and nothing of that ever comes in papers. It’s always celebrities standing with one hand on waist, I don’t know who decided that as an attractive position.
It’s the concept of having a computer voting machine that bothers me, more so than the specific poor implementation that we have from Diebold.
I find it soothing to take something wrinkled and make it smooth. It feels anticipatory. It’s what I do before a celebration. And nobody bothers me when I’m ironing.
If I know my showboating bothers you, I’ll keep doing it. If playing with your mind is part of the arsenal, and I know it works, then I’m going to continue doing it.
What bothers me about TV is that it tends to take our minds off our minds.
It feels as though a very disproportionate number of main characters are writers, because that’s what the writer knows. Fair enough. But nothing bothers me more in a movie than an actor playing a writer, and you just know he’s not a writer. Writers recognize other writers. Ethan Hawke is too hot to be a writer.
I’ve had the interim belt before and that little interim specification bothers me.
It bothers me when I look at Israeli society, on the divisiveness in it, and to polarization. I’m not just talking about left-right… but how individuals behave towards each other.
People think I’m against critics because they are negative to my work. That’s not what bothers me. What bothers me is they didn’t see the work. I have seen critics print stuff about stuff I cut out of the film before we ran it. So don’t tell me about critics.
It bothers me when people say ‘shock comic’ or ‘gross-out’ because that was only one type of comedy I did. There was prank comedy. Man-on-the-street-reaction comedy. Visually surreal comedy. But you do something shocking, and that becomes your label.
I really appreciate artists of the 20th century, and I can see a lot of their influence on my work, but to suggest that my design only fits within an ‘ism’ kind of bothers me.
People have become less discriminating listeners, which is tragic, really. There’s a lot of emperor’s new clothes out there, whether they’re female or male solo acts. That bothers me. It’s hard to break through, and it’s like climbing Mount Everest if you actually do.
I just can’t go to the mall. It bothers me that I can’t be outside very often.
I’m a father to four kids, so it bothers me that even though our children think big naturally, our society systematically trains them out of thinking that way.
Whenever somebody hates you too much it usually means they have deeper feelings for you because nobody bothers to hate you unless they actually feel something.
I was raised with three bothers, no sisters. I’ve always been a tomboy.
I never try to get ahead of myself because there’s nothing that bothers me more than cockiness. I don’t think that’s necessary at all.
