I'm quite arty. I didn't know whether to become an artist or musician but I realised I could paint with music. All my songs have colours.
Louis Armstrong is quite simply the most important person in American music. He is to 20th century music (I did not say jazz) what Einstein is to physics.
The potential success that could come with signing with a major label didn't quite outweigh how important it was for me to make my music the way I knew it needed to be made.
In music, the punctuation is absolutely strict, the bars and rests are absolutely defined. But our punctuation cannot be quite strict, because we have to relate it to the audience. In other words we are continually changing the score.
In order to deal with all the medical cost demands and other challenges in the U.S., as we look to raise that revenue, the rich will have to pay slightly more. That's quite clear.
Women apparently are quite drawn to men who have differences rather than similarities in their histocompatibility system. They pick it up by smell, and they can pick it up from kissing.
I must quit marrying men who feel inferior to me. Somewhere there must be a man who could be my husband and not feel inferior.
Some people think having large breasts makes a woman stupid. Actually, it's quite the opposite: a woman having large breasts makes men stupid.
The music led to the acting. But movies aren't something you can just will yourself into. Someone has to choose you, and you have to be quite fortunate to be chosen.
I had a certain career as an actor that I think was quite personal as well, and had a lot of integrity, but I wasn't writing my own things or directing my own movies.
Jack Twist: I wish I knew how to quit you.
The deepest failures any fiction writer is likely to have are failures of not quite comprehending the truth of the story that he or she is telling.
I'm quite a curious person. I don't mind being the one who doesn't know things, a role I often play in QI.
I wish I knew how to quit you, political jokers and pathological liars...
I think the big thing about Groupon is just people had never seen anything grow quite so fast.
I quit being afraid when my first venture failed and the sky didn't fall down.
I think that my ideas of the world are that it's random and cruel but kind of quite comical really, and therefore the humour, in a sense, springs from that.
Learned helplessness is the giving-up reaction, the quitting response that follows from the belief that whatever you do doesn't matter.
I've always felt quite singular, even as a child. That I must stay on track to keep my purpose.
I'm quite sensitive to people noticing me. There are times when I'm relaxed, then others when it does make me self-conscious.
Possibly the fact that I was physically quite feeble, a relatively short little fellow, attracted me to that idea of a very authoritative and aggressive version of Conservative politics.
