According to my parents, I was supposed to have been a nice, churchgoing Swiss housewife. Instead I ended up an opinionated psychiatrist, author and lecturer in the American Southwest, who communicates with spirits from a world that I believe is far ...
The hardest achievement in acting - in my opinion, anyway - is nailing a role that absolutely nobody else could have played. Pacino owned Michael Corleone... but DeNiro could have owned it as well. Who else, though, but Val Kilmer could have nailed J...
Fantasy has had some problems with being too repetitive, in my opinion. I try to read what other people are doing - and say, 'How can I add to this rather than just recycle it? How can I stand on Tolkien's shoulders rather than stand tied to his knee...
My personal opinion is that, if you're a professional writer, that you do have quotas. So every day I do try to write 800-1,200 words. I don't always achieve it, and the reality is that a lot of the words I write will end up on the cutting-room floor...
We need to lower tax rates for everybody, starting with the top corporate tax rate. We need to simplify the tax code. The ultimate answer, in my opinion, is the fair tax, which is a fair tax for everybody, because as long as we still have this messed...
I have seen purer liquors, better segars, finer tobacco, truer guns and pistols, larger dirks and bowie knives, and prettier courtesans here in San Francisco than in any other place I have ever visited; and it is my unbiased opinion that California c...
Lisbeth Salander: [when pressed for more details] He's had a long standing sexual relationship with his co-editor of the magazine. Sometimes he performs cunnilingus. Not often enough. In my opinion. Dirch Frode: Well, you were right not to include th...
Grandfather: It's my considered opinion that you're a bunch of sissies. John: You're just jealous. Norm: Leave him alone, Lennon... or I'll tell them all the truth about you. John: You wouldn't. Norm: Oh, I would, though.
Chico: They're afraid. She's afraid of me, you, him. All of us. Farmers! Their families told them we would rape them. Chris: Well we might. But in my opinion you might have given us the benefit of the doubt. But just as you please...
A native tongue, in my opinion, isn't the language spoken where you were born or the first language you learned; it's a language that makes you feel at home. It's a language that you don't command, but that commands you. And without it, you'd feel lo...
The importance of for the development of modern physical theory and especially for the mathematical fundament of the theory of relativity is overwhelming indeed; also his achievement of the system of absolute measurement in the field of electromagnet...
But if an actress asks me my opinion, I would tell her there are a million different designers who make faux fur. If you like that look, wear faux fur. If you're doing it on the red carpet, you're doing it for how it looks. Faux fur and real fur look...
I write the occasional entry for the 'Times' Theatre blog, especially when I'm in London and seeing two shows a day, but I don't tweet. I don't want to have to express my opinion in 140 characters. That's like writing haiku. You need a certain amount...
In my opinion the separation of the c- and ac-stars is the most important advancement in stellar classification since the trials by and ... To neglect the c-properties in classifying stellar spectra, I think, is nearly the same thing as if a zoologis...
Any clod can have the facts; having opinions is an art.
Stubborn and ardent clinging to one's opinion is the best proof of stupidity.
You know, an opinion can be right or wrong.
A man has a property in his opinions and the free communication of them.
Smatterers in learning are the most opinionated.
What I love is getting polarized opinions.
Opinion is ultimately determined by the feelings, and not by the intellect.
