Stuff Quotes - page 75

I had - after I sang the 'Star Spangled Banner' so badly, after my tragic singing accident, after that, you know, all my stuff kind of, like, really got even more full blown and, you know, I got stage fright and, you know, I couldn't do stand-up anymore and let alone sing and all the other things. (Roseanne Barr)
I try to do women's-point-of-view comedy. The joke is, 'This is what I think; there's the truth.' I try to think of stuff that's real broad, but the more personal it is, the more universal it is. All my friends go through the same stuff. View quote
Roseanne Barr
In Hollywood there's no real material. They would send me stuff, but I hadn't even seen the director. If I don't see the director's eyes, I'm not going. I'm not even going to pack my bags. View quote
Emmanuelle Beart
I am really committed to my faith journey and I am committed to my family. My husband and I have been married for almost 30 years and we homeschool our kids. We have a different working-out-of the-box family, but we do make it work, obviously with God's grace and we are very grateful for that.” Are there any drawbacks from not living in New York or L. A.? "Sometimes it can be a little bit lonely because we are the only family that we know that is in the entertainment industry, homeschools and is faith-based [while trying] to maintain some sort of ‘regular life' so to speak in the midst of the crazy stuff. It is a little bit different I think. Sometimes we feel like we are the Lone Rangers, but this is where God has us and this is his calling for right now, for this season. We do it with joy and with integrity. View quote
Jodi Benson

Rachel Bilson
You've got to use your celebrity for good stuff, not evil. I think it's lame when people act as if they're better than everyone! View quote
Rachel Bilson
This is the research we did online for the 9/11 attacks... we gave this briefing internally at the CIA, they said, 'how'd you know all this stuff?' because at the same time one of the emails had the date... 9/11 as the attack date that was given. View quote
William Binney
I read all these books and I had the feeling that just reading things is not enough. I also wanted to create my own stuff, to create something new. View quote

Being an actor is mostly about rejection and being out of work. It was a fast lesson in all of that stuff. View quote
Rose Byrne
All that self-control stuff, I tried all that stuff from analysts. I went everywhere to these guys, every kind of anger-management, psychologist, psychiatrist. 'Get rid of my temper, get rid of my temper.' And there was only one guy who just said, 'I don't think this is related to, uh, issues. I think there has got to be something wrong.' View quote
Harvey Weinstein
The most important thing is that sometimes you have to go through hard times to get to the good stuff. (Abby Wambach)
When you make movies, I find that I never have time to go to the movies and enjoy movies like I used to, because I'm so movied out, right, I'm so filmed out that the last thing that I wanna do is with the little spare time that I have is stick in a dark room and watch more stuff on the screen. View quote
James Wan
Feminism is just about equality, really, and there's so much stuff attached to the word, when it's actually so simple. I don't know why it's always so bogged down. View quote
Mia Wasikowska
I've always been a fan of the [Rocky] films, even the fifth, that I know some people didn't care for, I've always enjoyed them. I thought they were great. It really just got into the underdog story and how if you have your mind in the right direction, and your heart is full of the right kind of stuff, you'll succeed and you'll triumph over adversity, over really anything. View quote
Milo Ventimiglia
My first film was a comedy, but after that I went always into more heavier stuff. View quote
Paul Verhoeven
I'm so thankful that all that stuff made it to the screen, because a lot of the time studio executives say that there's no time, or ask why we should feel sympathy for this bad guy. I joke that I'm the romantic lead in the movie, I just happened to pick the wrong girl. Imhotep is kind of the tragic villain, I guess, and a lot of people have come up to me and said I was hating you, but then I reach a point when I was feeling sorry for you too. It's those different facets that help explain why this film is such a success. View quote
Arnold Vosloo
Composing a score is like getting in one of those mini-submarines that take you to the bottom of the ocean. You crawl into this little bubble, seal yourself away from the outside world and dive deep into uncharted territory. Sometimes the places you explore are dark, sometimes they're light. If you have the right tools and knowledge you can explore wherever you like and have a great experience. It's a crude analogy to genre hopping, but it's accurate. I was lucky as a kid to be exposed to so much different material. I watched cartoons and read all kinds of comics as much as I buried my head in scary stuff. It makes going from talking animals one day to shape-shifters the next pretty easy. Truth is, most composers are pinballs. They can bounce around from style to style and adapt really well. View quote
Michael Wandmacher
It's our potential for good stuff I'm most interested in exploring, but that has most meaning when juxtaposed with things that can go wrong. View quote
Morris Gleitzman

I remember getting this scrapbook that this girl made, that I actually gave to my mom to hold onto because she has a 'Twilight' shrine in their house in Florida. It was just this scrapbook of me, starting with 'Twilight,' and the whole progression of me and my career throughout that, and other stuff that I had done in between. (Ashley Greene)
Obviously there will be a backlash. If you believe the hype you have to believe a backlash too. Any criticism we get, is always stuff we've already criticised ourselves. View quote
Jonny Greenwood
I suppose subconsciously I was thinking in terms of having the scale of it matching the scale of the images. Hence the sort of string quartet, jazz band and electronic stuff. View quote
Jonny Greenwood
I worry about being a fogy and just writing for orchestras. Like, really, I should be doing more electronic stuff, I feel. Laptops as part of the orchestra, and installation sound, and speakers. View quote
Jonny Greenwood
I prefer character-driven stuff. I am an actor and I come from theater and I love creating a scene and working with actors as opposed as opposed to working with CGI. But there is some fun to be had with the B-movie monster movies as well especially today because they are so self-aware, you can have a lot of fun. But I definitely prefer the more straightforward horror. View quote
