Early Quotes

I was a woman writing at the early moment when small drops of worried resentment and noble rage were secretly, slowly building into the second wave of the women’s movement. I didn’t know my small-drop presence or usefulness in this accumulation Picture Quote #1

The really cool challenge of 24’ was learning on camera how to be a dramatic actress. The biggest difficulty was the industry side of things. I was very lucky that I had Joel Surnow, one of the creators of 24,’ in my corner. Early on, the Fox executives couldn’t believe that I was on the show Picture Quote #1

I wanted to look at the upper-middle-class scene since the war, and in particular my generation’s part in it. We had spent our early years as privileged members of a privileged class. How were we faring in the Age of the Common Man? How ought we to be faring? Picture Quote #1

Eudora Welty’s ‘A Curtain of Green’ had an enormous effect on me. But my early attempts to graft stories from the Deep South onto North of England provincialism were not successful. All were rejected Picture Quote #1

In the early work of Frank Lloyd Wright - and you can also see it with Mies - they make new ground by raising the ground. Frank Lloyd Wright did it so beautifully with the Robie House. The roof becomes almost a new ground Picture Quote #1

Holland was one of the first countries to adopt dance music into their culture, and we were the first ones to have really big raves. I grew up in that atmosphere in the early 1990s, and I was very interested in how dance music was made Picture Quote #1

I was a kid at the end of the 1960s and in the early 1970s, so a lot of things changed. You had pop music coming up, with David Bowie, you had new television programmes and all these things. I was fascinated Picture Quote #1

The popular songs that were written in the 1920s and 30s, 40s and early 50s were written by veterans - mostly men who’d had experience in life. How can you write a lyric if you haven’t really lived life? Picture Quote #1

In the early 70s, coming out of the 60s, it was very hippy or it was very uniform, like The Beatles all wearing the same suit. Into the 70s, it became much more about a personal style. You had the glam period, which was a lot of fun, and then you went into punk Picture Quote #1

In my final year at Bristol University, I wrote a play called ‘White Feathers.’ It was produced in the studio theatre at the students’ union in early 1999, when I was 21. It’s 100 pages long: a very traditional play, with an interval, about deserters in the First World War Picture Quote #1

In the early 2000s, people expected that anonymity on the Internet would be positive for the development of democracy in South Korea. In a Confucian culture like South Korea’s, hierarchy can block the free exchange of opinions in face-to-face situations. The web offered a way around that Picture Quote #1

In my early to mid-20s, a fear of confrontation made it difficult for me to end relationships in a mature or even quasi-sane way. Instead, I would hang on resentfully, praying that my doomed beau would end things first and spare me the displeasure. To add hindrance to hang-up, the men I chose were usually just as stoic as I was Picture Quote #1

My grandmother taught me how to read, very early, but she taught me to read just the way she taught herself how to read - she read words rather than syllables. And as a result of that, when I entered school, it took me a long time to learn how to write Picture Quote #1

I always loved strange stories like the Dr. Seuss stuff. ‘Go, Dog. Go!’ was one of my favorite stories - it still is. It’s just such a bizarre yet true book. And I did well reading and writing as a kid throughout school. I think early on that’s what made me realize what an advantage that is Picture Quote #1

Mr. Hussein began building Ghazalia in the early 1980s as a home for army officers and other members of his Baath Party. Concrete mansions with pillars and domes are common in the southern half of the district Picture Quote #1

Ever since our Surfin’ Safari’ began in the early 1960’s, the relations’hip with The Beach Boys and water has been synonymous. ‘Surfin’, ‘Catch a Wave’, and ‘Surfin’ USA’ are songs which capture the feelings of being out in the water without a care in the world, living a dream so many long to live no matter where they are from Picture Quote #1

St. Paul was making it impossible to be Jewish and Christian at the same time. What is very striking about those early churches and communities is that you could be both. Under Paul, though, you absolutely couldn’t Picture Quote #1

When I came into the mobile phone business, I was really the upstart who pretty much took the business, not quite by storm, but really made an impact on it quite early on. But it was from a position, really, of feeling that I was a last mover Picture Quote #1

I’d had an early stint in acting school, and there was something satisfying about becoming a character, about being inside another mind that you had to create out of yourself. As I moved toward a life in writing, I found many of the things I’d learned in acting school still applied Picture Quote #1

I worked in fashion, but I worked more in the sales side of fashion than in design. I was an assistant buyer for a department store back in the 70s and the early years of Saint Laurent. And I used to have a lot of private clients that I bought for Picture Quote #1

In the early eighties, there were a lot of artists involved with the music scene. All those young artists, before their careers took off, were into music. Robert Longo used to play some guitar. He had a band for a while. Basquiat had a band. I mean, people were always trying to mix music and art - in fact, I’m guilty of it myself Picture Quote #1

L.A. prides itself on newness or being the last frontier or just not liking old things and tearing them down to build new things. But Malibu history is interesting to me. My mom’s family was one of the early families in California, so there’s history going back to the 1840s or 50s Picture Quote #1

I feel like my early experiences of acting, and I think a lot of other actors’ too, are probably at camp or school plays where you get to have great range. At camp, I remember getting to play a 50-year-old man Picture Quote #1

I do miss the idea of the crew getting together to watch dailies after work. I will usually get selected dailies printed on film especially for the early part of a shoot as HD dailies really don’t tell me much photographically Picture Quote #1

Citizens of liberal welfare states become increasingly narcissistic. The great preoccupations of vast numbers of Brits, Frenchmen, Germans and other Western Europeans are how much vacation time they will have an how early they can retire and be supported by the state Picture Quote #1

We knew, very early on, that we had to be very, very clear that directors need to speak to actors and actresses and be very clear about what is expected, and find out whether they’re comfortable with that. Wardrobe has to be in place. There have to be checks Picture Quote #1

From very early on, I’ve realized that and I have a mission statement with my songs to entertain, to encourage and to challenge the Body of Christ. That’s always kind of the focus of the songs that I write for myself Picture Quote #1

Christ was on display early in my childhood. Both my mother and father were living examples of what it meant to live for Christ and have Him be the focal point of decisions, actions, thoughts and words. It was a blessing but not entirely unexpected when very young I also came to the faith Picture Quote #1

When you’re in your early 20s, a lot of characters can be one or two dimensional. You want a role to substantiate the drama, as opposed to actually analyzing the psychology of a human being. That’s what drew me to acting, particularly the contradictions in people Picture Quote #1

The trick is to start early in our careers the stress-relieving avocation that we will need later as a mind-exercising final vocation. We can quit a job, but we quit fresh involvement at our mental peril Picture Quote #1
