Interested Quotes

I had a very intense relationship with my father, who was always extremely interested in what we kids were doing. I actually think the secret of many successful women is having a father who encourages them Picture Quote #1

The first ‘Saturday Night Live’ season I was heavily interested in was the one with Martin Short, Billy Crystal, and Christopher Guest. There was just something about Martin Short in particular. I really related to him and hung on his every word and mannerism, so I started impersonating all of his characters as an 8th grader Picture Quote #1

I came to America at the age of 17 as an exchange student, and a year later, I was a student at Dartmouth. I would say that the rather weak foundation of my Christianity was effectively battered at Dartmouth. I’ve had mostly a secular career. But I became intellectually interested in Christianity again in my mid-30s Picture Quote #1

I went to study English for two reasons. Principally because when I was in university, studying drama wasn’t considered an option. You couldn’t get a degree course for it. And so many plays and things that I was interested in landed themselves in a broader spectrum of literature Picture Quote #1

Climate change should not fundamentally be seen as a political or partisan issue, but it has been turned into a political football primarily by the climate deniers who have a vested interested in maintaining the status quo. That includes certain industrial interests, financial interests and political interests Picture Quote #1

African narratives in the West, they proliferate. I really don’t care anymore. I’m more interested in the stories we tell about ourselves - how, as a writer, I find that African writers have always been the curators of our humanity on this continent Picture Quote #1

I think the most useful thing you can do as a writer is to reconstruct real life with all its color, hardship, joy, and intrigue. If you’re interested in people, you honor them best, I think, by making the fullest possible picture of them. Your subjects may - and from my experience probably will - protest your portrait of them Picture Quote #1

In all my shows, I’m not interested in the iconic shots of the Capitol and the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial. I’m always interested in trying to get the culture of the place - trying to get it right Picture Quote #1

I think all artists are only interested in a couple of themes, really. I’m primarily interested in change and connection as being this restorative force. I write about them because that’s what I think about in my own life Picture Quote #1

The mental health conversation is very important to me. I have friends that struggle with various mental illnesses. I’ve struggled with depression and anxiety. I’m very interested in how we deal with that Picture Quote #1

Jazz music and, more specifically, jazz musicians, are my artistic heroes. I want to be the Thelonious Monk of acting. He had no concern for how well he was received. He played whatever he wanted whenever he wanted. He just wasn’t interested in achieving the good opinion of his audience. That’s the Holy Grail of acting; of any art form Picture Quote #1

I’m interested in taking raw human emotions and then isolating them without any narrative structure. In order to achieve this, I try to break out of the narrative conventions that you’d see in a typical feature film 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 am interested in the way advances in medicine and palliative care mean more people now have the opportunity to plan their own deaths, and also plan for those who are left behind. What does that do to the grieving process? Picture Quote #1

I like loud music. I like music that fills my ears. I’m just going to pull out my iPod and see what we got here. We’re always interested in new bands because we have a retail store in northern California. I think it’s got to be happy Picture Quote #1

I got into a conversation with EMI, and they said they were very interested in releasing the song because it was such a huge hit online. RCA and Universal were also very interested, but EMI were the best team, so I decided to sign with them. I got my deal because ‘Silly Boy’ leaked, so obviously now I’m very happy about what happened! Picture Quote #1

With the ‘Silly Boy’ track, I mean, people knew about it, but it wasn’t really like, ‘oh that’s Eva Simons.’ But when ‘Take Over Control’ came out, that’s when people started to get interested in me personally, which is great because it was something I really believed in Picture Quote #1

I know of no scholar more dedicated to bringing a thorough and accurate portrayal of America’s involvement in Vietnam than Mark Moyar. Everyone who is interested in a full picture of that oft-misunderstood war should be grateful for his effort Picture Quote #1

My sisters used to learn dance, and I used to stand behind them and dance. So my guruji suggested that I also learn, as I seemed interested. I started learning at the age of three and was always on stage for something or the other. My mother is proud of me, and clearly my artistic bent comes from her Picture Quote #1

Writing for children is my... that’s my medium, you know, and the medium is the picture book, which is a very particular kind of book. I try to give children what I would give anybody, you know. I become interested in something. I find something fascinating. It has to fascinate me, and then I want to give it to them Picture Quote #1

I don’t know where my fashion sense comes from, exactly. I’ve always been interested in, not necessarily being unique, but not necessarily sticking to the preexisting paradigm - whether it be clothes or music or whatever Picture Quote #1

I’ve embraced rock ‘n’ roll because it encompasses all the things I’m interested in: poetry, revolution, sexuality, political activism - all of these things can be found in rock ‘n’ roll. But I am also engaged in all of these things separately Picture Quote #1

I think I am the most impressed with writing styles that defy category, like Kharms or Selby, Breton or Jarry, where you become as interested in the writer as much as the writing itself. It’s all these things that make reading so appealing to me Picture Quote #1

I was not a comic book reader, but my son is. My son wasn’t really interested in reading books, which was hard for me because I love to read. It just didn’t come naturally to my boy. So we kind of found comic books because they were fascinating to him. They were great stories Picture Quote #1

I don’t like weak women and I don’t find it interesting to play them. I’m inspired by them, when I see them in dramas, like with Natalie Portman, in almost every movie she’s in. It’s awesome that chicks can really go there, and it’s beautiful to watch, but I don’t think I’m interested, in any way, shape or form, in embodying those creatures Picture Quote #1

I’m more interested in the idea of role-playing in general than the idea of role-playing in art. I like the childlike quality of making pretend or the optimistic idea of pretending something’s happening when it’s not Picture Quote #1

I do want to write about social/cultural/historical context. I’m interested in relationships, in character, but within a specific social context. Which is kind of a political thing, I admit that. But it’s what I’m interested in, and it’s how I believe human behavior is legible Picture Quote #1

I’m not a fan of religion. Religion ties people up and binds them and puts them back in chains but faith - true relationship - releases us to be all what God ever intended us to be. That’s what I’m interested in Picture Quote #1

When your characters are not white hats or black hats but something in between, you do have to be very careful about your details. So, that takes a while. I’m not interested in white hats and black hats. I don’t think that’s how people are in real life Picture Quote #1

I moved to Chicago and began attending the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. The students and teachers I met in Chicago were politically active and also passionate about the same things that I was interested in. It was a great match for me Picture Quote #1
