Text Quotes
I have a theater background, so I like finding beats, working on things and having rehearsal (Background Quotes)
We were a very politically active family. My father was one of the first lawyers in South Africa to have a black partner, so I grew up very aware of the struggle going on. Coming from that background, it really gave me chills to have my music be a part of the election of the first black American president. (Background Quotes)
I have an ethics background. It doesn’t mean you’re perfect. But I tried to set an entirely different bar for politics in D.C. that’s based on ethics and first principles and political philosophy, and not this constant bickering of, ‘Are you Right or Left?’ (Background Quotes)
Any active sportsman has to be very focused; you’ve got to be in the right frame of mind. If your energy is diverted in various directions, you do not achieve the results. I need to know when to switch on and switch off: and the rest of the things happen around that. Cricket is in the foreground, the rest is in the background. (Background Quotes)
The Band was rebelling against the rebellion. The rebellion went to a place where it became too obvious, too trendy, like you were just following the pack. So it was our choice to get off the bandwagon - no pun intended - and do things that were in our background and what was the most honest thing to do. (Background Quotes)
Horses will never be my career. It’s just a big passion of mine, and one that will always be there in the background, but football is my main passion and everyone knows that. (Background Quotes)
Having a stadium in France named after a footballer from the Ivory Coast, even if I’m proud of my France-Ivory Coast background, is a great proof of integration. (Background Quotes)
Humanity is in my heart. Do I suffer fools? No. Am I a stickler for my profession? Yes. I am a task master? Yes. My military background, football background, I’m a team player all the way, and I love winning. (Background Quotes)
I believe that this idea of story or myth or this thing that Joseph Campbell writes about is sort of an inter-connective spiritual force - like The Force in ‘Star Wars’ - where it doesn’t matter where you were raised, or what your background is, there are certain elements of story that totally appeal to you. (Background Quotes)
Hers was the kind of family that commissioned painters to immortalize its young: a background utterly alien to Strike, and one he had come to know like a dangerous foreign country. (Background Quotes)
Of course the Disney movies, you know all the soundtracks, and anything Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire were doing - Singing in the Rain was one of my favorite musicals I used to watch a lot because my mom came from a theatre background. (Background Quotes)
It’s true that there’s no such thing as free will. We can’t help what we are or what we do. It’s not our fault. Nobody’s to blame for anything. It’s all in your background ... and your glands. If you’re good, that’s no achievement of yours - you were lucky in your glands. If you’re rotten, nobody should punish you - you were unlucky, that’s all. (Background Quotes)
I’m a conservative. I believe in the idea of freedom and liberty, but more importantly, look at my voting background. I voted against bailing out Wall Street. I voted against, never voted for, a tax increase. (Background Quotes)
A good game impresses you with what you’re doing. I think that’s a fundamental difference that I as a game designer need to recede in the background. (Background Quotes)
As a child, I’d always liked cowboys and Indians stories where there were two layers - gruesome in the foreground but funny in the background. (Background Quotes)
When Bill Clinton chose Al Gore in 1992 - from the same generational, ideological, and geographical background as his - it underscored his campaign’s central argument that this was a clash between the past and the future, that ‘Don’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow’ was indeed the campaign’s anthem. (Background Quotes)
I think I’m a vocal genius, not a musical genius. I like background vocals. I consider myself a voice, not a singer. A voice is a sound, and singing is what you do with that sound. (Background Quotes)
Coming from a working-class background, where my father did manual labor, was a good grounding; I was obsessed with getting a job or getting out of the house at 15. (Background Quotes)
I had a brief theater background and loved the backstage world there’s more backstage work in television, so I saw a job advertised and applied, and got it. That was back in 1977, when getting jobs was easy. (Background Quotes)
Working on ‘Gossip Girl’ was a fantastic experience. It was my first real gig and I’m thankful for it - I got to learn a lot. I’m glad I got to explore getting comfortable in my own shoes in the background on a show like ‘Gossip Girl.’ (Background Quotes)
My mom and dad put my brother and sister through university and they were very keen for us to have an academic background just to give us a chance. (Background Quotes)
Maybe because I am from a sports background, I don’t give up easily. I am a fighter. (Background Quotes)
Religion is so much more than the God you pray to. The religion that you associate with, it’s culture, it is family, it is background. That is something that I have always grown up with. (Background Quotes)
There’s a kind of optimism specifically within Christianity about the world - about whose side God is on. Well, I didn’t have any of that in my background. I had physicality and chaos. (Background Quotes)
I went to graduate school with zero expectation. I kind of backed into it. I wanted to go back to school because I felt gaps in my literary background. I studied mostly twentieth-century English literature in college, so I thought, ‘Maybe I’ll go back for my writing.’ (Background Quotes)
I think when you’re 16, if you have good parents, they generally just fade in the background. I had great parents, and because they were great, I thought very little about them in high school. (Background Quotes)
To provide background and physical description and all the rest is of course vital to fiction, but vital only insofar as such detail is in the service of a richly imagined story, rather than in the service of good botany or good philosophy or good geography. (Background Quotes)
I have a lot of endurance and I have a good background right now in my training and it’s time to get ready. (Background Quotes)
A good short-story writer has an instinct for sketching in just enough background to ground the specific story. (Background Quotes)
I would think, to me, growing up in the south, growing up with all the gospel music, singing in the church and having that rhythm and blues - the blues background was my big inspiration. (Background Quotes)
