I have no problem with battling for a position. I have no problem trying to beat somebody out. It's a sport, competition, so I'm used to it.
Gymnastics is the greatest sport in the world, and one of the hardest, but we have to watch out for domineering male figures who try to belittle and scream at young girls.
When you've won a gold medal and you're at the top of your sport, everyone's trying to beat you. I find that incredibly motivating.
I look at athletes in all sports and try to picture what kind of football player they'd be, what position they'd play and so on.
A lot of these angles are really about trying to mimic broadcast sports angles in order to anchor the scene, to sort of normalize it before it becomes abstracted.
I try and find fun activities like mountain biking, hiking, or water sports for a workout rather than pushing weight in the gym.
Bruce Lee was an artist and, like him, I try to go beyond the fundamentals of my sport. I want the public to see a knockout in the making.
You achieve long-term success step by step. Try to achieve your goals one at a time, like you do target practice.
We have been so trying to convince them from the very beginning of our organization, but with no success.
I try to persuade people to act in ways that are not only in their own interest, but in the interest of society at large.
I could never be a country person, sitting around trees trying to write a song. I would rather be in the middle of society, whether it's growing or crumbling.
We're trying to run a 21st century society and economy with 19th century Darwinian, competitive, crude ideas.
I got into acting my junior year of high school. We got a new hot drama teacher and I was like 'Alright, I'll try drama.'
I love being outdoors and try to work out outside when I can. I spent most of my childhood outdoors.
I love getting consumer reports. I think it's one of my favourite things, studying what people have to say about the product and then trying to make it better.
When I talk to other young people, I try to be as straightforward as possible. I'm a kid. I love getting outdoors. You should get outside, too!
I am happy to keep working on books because I'm always reading, and I'm always trying to fall in love.
I try to just make music that I love, and if I believe in it that's all that matters.
I'm going to continue to try to strike a balance, because I really, really do love doing stand-up, and I don't see why it should affect the acting.
So much of movie acting is in the lighting. And in loving your characters. I try to know them, and with that intimacy comes love. And now, I love Voldemort.
I love going into a dive where they have no idea who I am or haven't heard my music and try to win them over.
