Within
Screen
Wisdom comes from within. Knowledge is acquired and can sometimes put a screen on your wisdom.
- A. R. Rahman
Father
Instance
When I travel with my kids abroad, I am not myself, but I'm more a father who wants to protect them. Sometimes, I am even aggressive about certain things and get surprised seeing myself like that: for instance, when people want to take pictures of them. I am fine if they want to take my pictures, but they are not public property.
- A. R. Rahman
Stress
Gig
As an actor, we're unemployed a lot, so I'm familiar with the stress of trying to get a gig, and sometimes you take shows that you don't really want to do to keep the money coming in.
- Aaron Douglas
Song
Middle
Sometimes in the middle of the night, I wake up with a song in my head, and I have to finish it so I can fall back asleep.
- Aaron Neville
Feet
I See
Whenever I see a tree that is climbable, it must be climbed. Sometimes when I'm on a run, I'll just run up a tree, jump on a branch and swing off. My favorite tree, in Saratoga, gets me a good 75 feet up.
- Aaron Patzer
Couple
Movie
I can't remember my dreams more than a couple of seconds after I wake up. It's frustrating because sometimes I dream that I'm watching a really good movie.
- Aaron Sorkin
Voice
Needed
Singing for stage, if you don't hear yourself, that's when you push, and that's when you can hurt your voice sometimes. So if I can hear myself in my ear, it really helps me to find that balance of how loud I needed to be singing.
- Aaron Tveit
Doing
Both Sides
The great joy of doing 'The Daily Show' for me is that I get to sit on the fence between cultures. I am commenting on the absurdity of both sides as an outsider and insider. Sometimes I'm playing the brown guy, and sometimes I'm not, but the best stuff I do always goes back to being a brown kid in a white world.
- Aasif Mandvi
Doing
Carpentry
I spend a lot of time doing carpentry. Sometimes there is nothing that gives me the contentment that sawing a piece of wood does.
- Abbas Kiarostami
Feel
Russians
The European girls, like the Russians, tend to stick together, but there's never any rivalry. Sometimes there's a little bit of tension with the older girls because they might feel a little threatened by the younger models, but it's not between personalities.
- Abbey Lee Kershaw
Grow
More
Sometimes when you fail, it allows you the opportunity to grow more motivation and get more intense about your training.
- Abby Wambach
Plate
Shake
Well, sometimes if I go out to dinner with my family, people will come up to me and put their hand across my plate for me to shake, sometimes when I have a bite of food in my mouth. I find this a bit disturbing.
- Abdul Qadeer Khan
Doing
Think
Don't assume that the answers are out there in the form of somebody else already doing something. Sometimes they are. But you have to think beyond that.
- Abigail Johnson
Work
Albums
I've recorded 25 or 30 albums. I know that sometimes when you work with producers who are kinda dictators, it doesn't help you make a better record.
- Ace Frehley
Rest
Very
Antidepressants are very good, but it's a clinical cosh, really. Sometimes you have to be knocked out, just to stop; when you're in that state all you want to do is just sleep, and rest your body and your brain.
- Adam Ant
About
Entire
What's so amazing about 'All in the Family' is sometimes an entire act was one camera shot. It was all about characters.

Best
Habits
Sometimes, it's best to let the kids take control - and it's never too early to instill positive eating habits or self-confidence in the kitchen.
- Adam Mansbach
Too Much
Idea
A lot of shorts spend too much time setting up the idea; sometimes they meander.
- Adam McKay
Ahead
Here
Sometimes I know a joke I'm going to yell out ahead of time, but most of the time it's stream of conscious. You never really know it until you've got everyone dressed up, the set is built, all the extras are here.
- Adam McKay
Kind
Away
You know, sometimes I get moments of inspiration when I'm writing something and then the task seems so daunting that it just kind of scares me away.
- Adam Pascal
Still
Making
Sometimes I still go round the house making weird noises and stuff, so in that aspect, I haven't grown up!
- Adam Peaty
Play
I Think
I play golf, but sometimes it's so un-relaxing, I have to play tennis to wind down. Now that I think about it, this process is sort of like when I go out for sushi and have to get a slice of pizza afterward.
- Adam Ross
Guilty
Feel
Sometimes you can't prioritise family and you feel guilty.
- Adam Sandler
I Think
About
I think people sometimes confuse 'catchy' with something that should automatically be a hit in today's world. I mean, obviously we write a lot of stuff that's catchy, that sticks in your head. But that doesn't necessarily mean that middle-school kids are going to want to listen to a song about a lawyer or a Subaru or whatever.
- Adam Schlesinger
Song
Internal
A song sometimes ends up with its own internal logic.
- Adam Schlesinger
People
Seemingly
Sometimes people's behavior is seemingly unexplainable.
- Adam Scott
Love
Soul
Sometimes with pop music, you have to see it to love it. With soul music, it's sparse. There's nothing that's pretentious or planned. It's just so gutsy.
- Adele
Alone
Although
Journalists do not live by words alone, although sometimes they have to eat them.

Sleep
Mexico

See
Tabloids
Tabloids can be fun. I see stuff sometimes and have a good laugh.
- Adrian Grenier
Fantasy
Set
Sometimes the fantasy writers set their novels in an ancient Earth, sometimes a parallel Earth, or, quite often, they offered no explanation at all as to the temporal and geographic location.
- Adrian McKinty
Away
Other
It's hard for me to understand how poverty can be invisible to so many people, since I see it everywhere. Readers sometimes think this world is so different; on the one hand, they feel connected to the people I'm writing about, and on the other hand, they're saying their lives are a world away.
- Adrian Nicole LeBlanc
Audience
I'm sometimes a cartoonist, and there's an audience for that, and I'm sometimes an illustrator, and there's an audience for that.
- Adrian Tomine
About
Hang
I just think they're really insecure about themselves sometimes. I know all the girls, but we all work a lot and don't have time to hang out together. They're all really nice; I've never had a problem with any model.
- Adriana Lima
Going
Missed
I missed out on everything. Sometimes on the street I see teenagers hanging out and going to the movies, going to concerts, and I get so jealous.
- Adriana Lima
Bring
TV
In TV, sometimes you get lost in the fog of the scene, and when you're working with such good actors, they can bring you into the scene.
- Adriano Giannini
Think
Like
Everything that has a spare piano is 'like Satie' and everything with strings is 'filmic,' Sometimes I get annoyed when they say my stuff sounds 'like Satie'. No, it doesn't. At least, I don't think so.
- Agnes Obel
Feel
Like
Sometimes I feel like a melody doesn't have anything to do with me, but it's just something that comes, is accumulated from me playing on the piano, and then this little creature just appears.
- Agnes Obel
Myself
May
I may have aimed too high sometimes, asked too much of myself and demanded too little from those around me.
- Agnetha Faltskog
Year
Very
It's always difficult, especially the U.S. Open, the last of the Grand Slams. It's always tough because you know, the season is very long. I really played a lot this year. Sometimes it's really hard to stay focused all the time because you're really tired after the whole season.
- Agnieszka Radwanska
Play
Kind
Sometimes you can really serve well and win the match because of the serve. I have the opposite thing now, so it's kind of hard. I can just really play with my forehand and backhand.
- Agnieszka Radwanska
About
Lot
A lot of stuff written about me is rubbish. I don't know where they get it from, sometimes.
- Agyness Deyn
Year
Half
Twitter was like a poem. It was rich, real and spontaneous. It really fit my style. In a year and a half, I tweeted 60,000 tweets, over 100,000 words. I spent a minimum eight hours a day on it, sometimes 24 hours.
- Ai Weiwei
Very
Tendency
We see the tendency in the world to criticise democracy and sometimes even to say that authoritarian countries like China are more efficient. That is very short-sighted. China looks efficient only because it can sacrifice most people's rights. This is not something the west should be happy about.
- Ai Weiwei
Other
Hang
Because work takes up a lot of time, you have to choose your moments for really letting rip. I hang out with my friends and my family and I spend time with my kids when I'm not working. They don't see my being an actor as exotic. For them, it's just an everyday thing. Sometimes it's amusing to them and other times, embarrassing.
- Aidan Gillen
Use
James
It's nice to have a few names. I use a few names myself. I use a few different surnames. I call myself James sometimes. I actually use my mother's name as a professional name. But if someone calls me Mr. Murphy or Mr. Gillen, I don't like that. I don't like being called 'mister,' and I don't like being called 'sir.'
- Aidan Gillen
Like
Level
I like the level of fame that I have. You get nice tables in restaurants sometimes, but fame isn't something that I find comfortable.
- Aidan Quinn
Feel
University
I was really into films when I was younger, but I feel like a bit of a phony sometimes - I started acting because I didn't know what else to do. I filled in all these university application forms and honestly didn't want to do any of the courses.
- Aidan Turner
Fall
Very
Sometimes in life, things just fall in to my lap. I'm very blessed that way.
- Aileen Quinn
Game
I Think
I think that it's interesting how shows like 'Walking Dead' or even 'Game of Thrones,' with all its fantasy elements, have become so popular. Sometimes, though, I get a little bit annoyed because the whole nerd thing taking over and is now cool, and it wasn't cool when I was younger.
- AJ Lee
Job
Fool
Sometimes the fool who rushes in gets the job done.
- Al Bernstein
Tell
Go
Sometimes if I tell people, 'I'm afraid that I'm really a fraud,' or 'I have a lot of self-doubt,' they go, 'Oh, no, you're kidding.' I go, 'No, I'm really honest.'
- Al Franken
Some
Shake
I'm not a malicious person. When you get past the tattoos and leather, I give people a fair shake. There are periods when I've sowed some wild oats, no doubt about it. And I can party with some of the heavyweights. There are some stories about me that, yeah, where there's smoke there's fire. But sometimes the smoke is just smoke.
- Al Jourgensen
Away
Putting
What I try to do is that when I'm at home, I'm at home. We're working hard at putting away our devices and not taking calls. Sometimes, you have to, but I'll say, 'Look guys, I've got to take this call, but when I'm done, I'm all yours. I just need 20 minutes.'
- Al Roker
I Think
Other
When you've got a teenager and a pre-teen, especially a son and a daughter, and they're going at each other at the table, all you really want is just five minutes of quiet, but sometimes I have a moment during the chaos when I think, 'Yes, this is good.'
- Al Roker
Right Person
Sometimes I say to people, 'Do you think you're easy to live with?' People who are single. And the ones who say, 'Yeah, yeah, I'm pretty easy to live with; it's just a question of finding the right person,' massive alarm bell rings in my mind.
- Alain de Botton
Very
Jews
Sometimes my biography is interpreted as the upbringing of a French aristocrat. It was very, very different. We were a family of mercantile, immigrant Jews.
- Alain de Botton
Die
Sign
You will often be in despair. You will sometimes think it's the worst decision in your life. That's fine. That's not a sign your marriage has gone wrong. It's a sign that it's normal; it's on track. And many of the hopes that took you into the marriage will have to die in order for the marriage to continue.
- Alain de Botton
I Think
Gotten
When I was younger, I behaved a bit strangely sometimes - lost my temper, did silly things - but little by little, I've gotten better. As a chef, I think you need to do a lot of work on yourself and your temperament.
- Alain Ducasse
Doing
Be Nice
Sometimes doing the forbidden can be nice.

Again
Sense
In the midst of the sense of tragedy or loss, sometimes laughter is not only healing, it's a way of experiencing the person that you've lost again.

Father
Handsome

- Alan Alda
Cost
Very
It's very important for us to see that science is done by people, not just brains but whole human beings, and sometimes at great cost.
- Alan Alda
Reason
Unable
Sometimes, particularly in summers in New York, I have tried to write in shorts or with no shirt on and found myself unable to do so, the reason being, I take it, that writing, even of the most impersonal sort, is for me a divestment, a striptease, even, so that if I start off undressed, I have nowhere to go.
- Alan Bennett
Play
Bush
On my radio show at night, people will sometimes - conservatives will call and say, 'You know what, I'm really sorry I cast my vote for President Bush.' And we play Brenda Lee and 'I'm Sorry' and ask them to sing along.
- Alan Colmes
Doing
About
My feeling about work is it's much more about the experience of doing it than the end product. Sometimes things that are really great and make lots of money are miserable to make, and vice versa.
- Alan Cumming
People
Very
Markets do very weird things because it reacts to how people behave, and sometimes people are a little screwy.
- Alan Greenspan
Plane
Nations
Poor laborers from all parts of Asia as well as Africa, the Americas and even Europe are transported by plane each day to wealthier nations where low-tier jobs are plentiful; sometimes the travelers board without even knowing their final destination.
- Alan Huffman
Fiction
Heroic
I suppose all fictional characters, especially in adventure or heroic fiction, at the end of the day are our dreams about ourselves. And sometimes they can be really revealing.
- Alan Moore
London
Anybody
You know, London is so sprawling, and you can sometimes forget that anybody else is on a stage anywhere else.

Like
Films
You know, sometimes I feel like I walk around with a target on my back with the films I make.
- Alan Rudolph
Small
Big
Just because Pluto or comets aren't as big as Jupiter doesn't mean they are not scientifically important - indeed, just the reverse is often true. Sometimes, great things come in small packages.
- Alan Stern
Minutes
I Write
I guess what people forget sometimes is that when I write songs, I write them sometimes in about 20 minutes.
- Alanis Morissette
My Life
Through
The spirituality that I experience sometimes touches on religion, in that I resonate with the thread of continuity that permeates through all religions. But in terms of it being a concretized, organized part of my life, it's not.
- Alanis Morissette
Late
Get
The pressures to get the story first, if wrong, are greater sometimes than the pressures to get the story right, if late.
- Alastair Campbell
Love
Mattress
There are a few giant companies that I love, and I love Amazon. Their customer service is impeccable: sometimes, just for the hell of it, I'll sleep on a mattress for three years and return it.
- Albert Brooks
Doing
Other
I made my living in comedy, but I'm not a silly person. I've got all these sides to me. Even in my movies that I've written myself, the characters sometimes border on great anger or nutsiness or other kinds of behavior. I'm not just doing fart jokes for two hours.
- Albert Brooks
Question
Drives
A question that sometimes drives me hazy: am I or are the others crazy?
- Albert Einstein
Nothing
Most
Sometimes one pays most for the things one gets for nothing.
- Albert Einstein
Marlon Brando
Sometimes you wanna be James Bond, and sometimes you wanna be Marlon Brando until you realize you can't be either!

Your
Queen Paola and I will never forget the ties that have grown between the people and us during the course of the years. Thank you for your confidence, tokens of sympathy and support, sometimes even with a little criticism. We always loved you.
- Albert II of Belgium
Producer
See
Sometimes there's something that a writer doesn't see or a producer doesn't see when he's looking at a shot.
- Aldis Hodge
Television
Could
I won every award you could win in television. I got paid well. And people loved '30 Rock'. And I loved '30 Rock'. I mean, sometimes you do a show that's a hit show, and you hate it.
- Alec Baldwin
Finished
Many
Sometimes a piece of music in the score isn't effective. When a score is too well finished with too many elements, sometimes it's too much.
- Alejandro Amenabar
Reading
Scripts
Sometimes reading scripts is terrible.
- Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Point Of View
As a Third World citizen, I always feel that I need to express my point of view. Sometimes the points of view of Third World countries are never expressed. We don't have that possibility, sometimes, to spread what we feel and how we see things.
- Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Long
Never
In hotels, every time I make a reservation and they never find my name, they never can pronounce it; it's so long, and sometimes they confuse.
- Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Asking
Many
I can be unbearable sometimes asking for so many takes.
- Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Happy
Saw
I was a happy man, never working. Sometimes I saw days with no money to eat. It was not so difficult.
- Alejandro Jodorowsky
Nothing
Speaking
Psychoanalysis wants to heal with words and speaking, but sometimes with speaking, you realize nothing.
- Alejandro Jodorowsky
Want
Still
Sometimes when people talk about me in fashion, I feel - I don't want to say uncomfortable, but I still don't believe that I'm in 'fashion.'
- Alessandro Michele
Research
Part
The research period of a film is the most exciting part of the process, and filming is sometimes a letdown because when you're dealing with biopic material, the real thing is always much more intricate than the story told in the film.
- Alessandro Nivola
Role
About
It's hard to consider myself one when a lot of my fans and people who are calling me a role model are people my age and sometimes older than me. I feel like they're at the same walk of life that I'm in right now, and they can probably teach me things about life, too.
- Alessia Cara
More
I Wish
Even so, sometimes I wish I did have a little bit more flair in my language.
- Alex Berenson
Like
Equipment
The stock prices of networking equipment companies like Cisco Systems and Nortel Networks sometimes seem as if they are priced for perpetual success.

Love
Works
Sometimes I'll come up with a lick that I really love, and I'll try to put the right words to it for years. Suddenly something comes to me that works just right.
- Alex Chilton
Thought
Other
I never thought of myself as being a good songwriter. There are a ton of other people that are good songwriters, but I don't think I'm in the club. What I do well is perform, sometimes sing pretty good, and accompany myself well and arrange fairly well.
- Alex Chilton
Guess
Sure
Sometimes you're not sure about a player. Sometimes you doubt. Sometimes you have to guess. Sometimes... you just know.
