Some
Some movies I see today have the most dramatic plot points but the actors are not playing them dramatically.
- Aaron Eckhart
Feet
Sometimes
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
Reasons
Very
When I go to a library and I see the librarian at her desk reading, I'm afraid to interrupt her, even though she sits there specifically so that she may be interrupted, even though being interrupted for reasons like this by people like me is her very job.
- Aaron Swartz
Show
Been
I always focused on being an actor. I did stand-up briefly, but I also did a lot of dramatic work. But since I've been on 'The Daily Show,' people think I'm a comedian. That's not how I see myself.
- Aasif Mandvi
Cut
About
I see potential in everything. It's about opening your mind to what you can do to the garment: because they're cheap, you can cut them or stitch them, and if you stuff it up, it's fine - it's only two dollars.
- Abbey Lee Kershaw
Been
About
Honestly speaking, I don't like my films. When I watch them, I see a lot of scope for improvement, so if I were to see any of my films, like 'Dhoom,' I might say... 'It would have been better if...' or 'had it been...' and this is all about evolving.
- Abhishek Bachchan
I Think
Edward
I am incrementally a pessimist, but I see the international debate that Edward Snowden has engendered, and I think this is exactly where the discussion should be. So, I would say I'm more optimistic than pessimistic.
- Adam Savage
Enjoy
Doing
When I see myself on film it makes me smile, I mean making a good living doing what I enjoy is soo much fun. I just hope that everyone has the chance to enjoy life like I do.

Way

- Al Franken
Other

All of a sudden I'm in the major leagues and we're traveling from town to town. I see the other players dressing different every day. I've got only one suit and I keep wearing it over and over. I'm really embarrassed.
- Al Kaline
Say
Go
If I see something dubious, say on a blog or a Web site, and I don't see it anywhere else, I'll just go right to the source and check it out.

Good Ideas
I see religion as a storehouse of lots of really good ideas that a secular world should look at, raid, and learn from.
- Alain de Botton
About
Bit
I am not a foodie, thank goodness. I will eat pretty much anything. A lot of my friends are getting incredibly fussy about food and I see it as a bit of an affliction.
- Alain de Botton
Very
Some
What I see in the corporate sector is very clearly an issue of a major shortfall in the issue of, what some people call confidence, but whatever you want to call it. Clearly people are looking out in the very distant future and they are saying that it is too complex.
- Alan Greenspan
People
Come
I spend my time backstage at the Lanvin shows, and when I come out at the end, all I see are people's eyes.

My Life
Think
If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.

Paint
Could

- Alberto Giacometti
Every Day
Kid
The people I see every day have known me since I was a little fat kid.
- Alden Ehrenreich
Teenage
Proves
It's so cool though when I see thirty-year-old men that are coming in to watch my shows. It's like, 'You really like my music? Like a teenage girl, you relate to it?' It just proves how much people are alike.
- Alessia Cara
Overpopulation
Issue
The human overpopulation issue is the topic I see as the most vital to solve if our children and grandchildren are to have a good quality of life.
- Alexandra Paul
Woman
About
The first thing that I see in a woman are her eyes. Sorry, it sounds shallow, but eyes say a lot about a person.
- Ali Fazal
Riding
Away
When I see a room full of people pedaling away on stationary bikes, I fall into an existential spiral. It's confirmation that all we do as humans is pedal, pedal, pedal, and go nowhere. We're just specks of dust in the universe, riding 1970s stationary bicycles.
- Ali Liebegott
Love
Sentences
I've got to hear the rhythm of the sentences; I want the music of the prose. I want to see ordinary things transformed not by the circumstances in which I see them but by the language with which they're described. That's what I love when I read.
- Alice McDermott
Honor
Look
Wherever I look, I see signs of the commandment to honor one's parents and nowhere of a commandment that calls for the respect of a child.
- Alice Miller
Experience
Feel
I no longer feel attracted to the well-made novel. I want to write the story that will zero in and give you intense, but not connected, moments of experience. I guess that's the way I see life. People remake themselves bit by bit and do things they don't understand.
- Alice Munro
My Life
Very
I see what happens when one gets very attached to material things. That's just not what my life is.
- Alicia Keys
American
Fair
In the real world, I see conservatives volunteering at adoption agencies, at churches, at bake sales and the local American Legion Post while the only charity a progressive sends is a smug sermon on fair share and what fairness is.
- Allen West
Very
Rooms
I see a lot of homes that are supercool, and everything is very tasteful, but it's not warm. I'm really scared of rooms that look too serious.
- Amanda Peet
Listen
Young
I see a lot of young kids hit me on Twitter all the time, like, 'I want to be famous! Listen to my mixtape! I wish I could be like you!' But a lot comes with it. It's not easy.
- Amber Rose
Show
Very
But I didn't even see God in the show as being very spiritual, I see him or her, it, as being something that is just relevant and very important in her life.
- Amber Tamblyn
Illusion
Fascinated
I see a sense of unity in the universe. Spirituality is not limited to only one religion. One can experience it across different religions. I am fascinated by philosophy of Advaita and philosophy of unity. We have to get over the illusion that God is different from us.
- Amish Tripathi
Love
My Life
I see my upbringing as a great success story. By disciplining me, my parents inculcated self-discipline. And by restricting my choices as a child, they gave me so many choices in my life as an adult. Because of what they did then, I get to do the work I love now.
- Amy Chua
Best
Crazy Things
The best days I have are usually days where I'm out in the woods and something happens, like I see an amazing animal like a fox, or I get a glimpse of a wild pig or something that I never see. Or crazy things happen.
- Amy Ray
Childhood
Had
My childhood memories are amazing; I had freedom in every way - but I see everything from a different perspective now that I live outside.
- Ana de Armas
Sometimes
Tickets
I see sometimes how guys may make a buffoon of themselves to sell a few more tickets. They create this image, and when it's all said and done, it's like everything falls out from under them. They have no stability. I never wanted to be one of those guys.
- Andre Ward
Australia
Point
In Australia, we point out a person's weaknesses as a way of saying 'I see you and I accept you'. If you do that with Americans, they instantly take offence.
- Andrew Dominik
Sick
Want
When a friend is sick, I see the situation for what it is, not what it isn't, and I offer to help as much as she wants, not as much as I want.
- Andrew J. Bernstein
Fiction
Internal
What I see as the particularly exciting prospect for writing horror fiction as we go forward is setting stories in more internal landscapes than external ones, mapping out the mind as the home for scary things instead of the house at the end of the lane or lakeside campground or abandoned amusement park.
- Andrew Pyper
Everyone
Participate
Feminism is not only for women It's something everyone can participate in, and evolve together, as the first step in the right direction. I see feminism as a tool to achieve that balance and peace.
- Ani DiFranco
Both
Lot
I see a lot of connections between folk and punk music just because they're both subcorporate music - I mean, traditionally.
- Ani DiFranco
Myself
See
I see myself as an educator.
- Anita Hill
Always
Throat
I'm always crying. I get a lump in my throat when I see intimacy between parents and their children.
- Anna Chancellor
Myself
Explore
I see myself as not a typical theater person, but a person who uses the theater as a place to meet people and explore ideas.
- Anna Deavere Smith
I Think
Admire
When I look at women, older than I am, in their 50s, 60, 70s, 80s, and I see women that I admire, I think, 'Oh, I get it; that's how I'm going to be.' I'm not scared. I want to be that.
- Annette Bening
Own
Primal
When I watch my kids, and I see the primal level at which the sibling relationships are formed, then I completely understand what these unresolved adult sibling problems are based on. You know, 'Mom liked you better' and, 'You got your own room and I didn't.'
- Annette Bening
See
Take
When I take a picture I take 10 percent of what I see.
- Annie Leibovitz
Myself
See
I see myself as a traveller.
- Annie Lennox
Why
Through
People who look for the first time through a microscope say, 'Now I see this, and then I see that,' and even a skilled observer can be fooled. On these observations I have spent more time than many will believe, but I have done them with joy, and I have taken no notice of those who have said, 'Why take so much trouble,' and, 'What good is it?'
- Antonie van Leeuwenhoek
Matter
Fiction
I just read the scripts that come to me, and I see the ones which I really kind of understand and connect with, whether that's a science fiction or a period piece. It doesn't really matter as long as they're original and I have something to do with the character.
- Asa Butterfield
Thinking
Certain Way
I have a certain way of thinking where I see something, and I know that I want it and I make up my mind - and that's pretty much all there is to it. It was like, This is what I want to do, and I'm going, and everything's going to work out. I'm going to be an actress. There was no way around it.
- Ashley Greene
Industry
Similar
The film industry brings people together, and so does technology. I see them as similar platforms.
- Ashton Kutcher
Celebrity
Feel
I see too many celebrity kids who can't sing. If you don't have it, give it up, because people are brutal. I never want my kids to feel like they have to live up to what I've done.
- Charles Kelley
Believe
See
The way I see it, it doesn't matter what you believe just so you're sincere.
- Charles M. Schulz
Offended
Like
I am never offended when I see the drag-queens dressed up like me.
- Cher
Play
Maybe
Every time I see a musician - it doesn't matter what age - that inspires me, there's always a secret little wish that maybe we'll play together, because that's how I learn and grow and so forth, you know. But hopefully there's a lot more.
- Chick Corea
City
Think
Every time I drive into Rio from the airport, I see the city for the first time and think how strange it is.
- Chico Buarque
See
Practical
I'm practical. I see something, and I do it.
- China Machado
Maintain
Bit
The point is that when I see a sunset or a waterfall or something, for a split second it's so great, because for a little bit I'm out of my brain, and it's got nothing to do with me. I'm not trying to figure it out, you know what I mean? And I wonder if I can somehow find a way to maintain that mind stillness.
- Chris Evans
Questions
Asking
At first, I see pictures of a story in my mind. Then creating the story comes from asking questions of myself. I guess you might call it the 'what if - what then' approach to writing and illustration.
- Chris Van Allsburg
See
Things
I'm sensitive to the things I see.
- Chris Van Allsburg
Art
Another
Painting is the most magical of mediums. The transcendence is truly amazing to me every time I go to a museum and I see how somebody figured another way to rub colored dirt on a flat surface and make space where there is no space or make you think of a life experience.
- Chuck Close
Reason
Through
I believe strongly in 'giving while living.' I see little reason to delay giving when so much good can be achieved through supporting worthwhile causes today. Besides, it's a lot more fun to give while you live than to give while you are dead.
- Chuck Feeney
Part
Before
The crew are the faces you see every morning and last at night before you go home. I spend more time with those people than I do with my friends and family, so they're forever a part of you and who you become as an actor so I hope I see them again.
- Claudia Black
Heels
Wearing
I'm amazed when I see mothers wearing high heels. If your kids run off you can't run after them.
- Claudia Schiffer
Mirror
Game
When I see myself in the videogame it's amazing how realistic I look. This is the most authentic and realistic soccer game I have ever seen. It is like I'm looking in a mirror. The attention to detail is incredible.
- Claudio Reyna
Tell
Like
When I see a story, I ask: is this something I'd like to be in? Is this something I'd like to see? And if I'd like to see it, would I like to tell it?
- Clint Eastwood
My Life
Bad
All my life, I've had these flashbacks, these dreams, nightmares, daymares, like visions, where I relive certain plays. Only the bad plays. I see them over and over, as if somebody's rewinding a tape and forcing me to watch.
- Colin Kaepernick
Like
Challenging
If I see something that's extremely challenging, I'm like, 'That seems really hard. Let's try it.' It's just my personality.
- Condola Rashad
Straight Man
Profess
Above these universal themes 'Truth Will Set U Free' is also a song composed for those who were born gay. I am a straight man so I do not profess to understand or know what a LGBT person experiences but I do recognize injustice when I see it.
- Corey Hart
Education
Country
Education to me is the most important thing that we've got going in this country. I mean, a lot of my family are teachers. I was the recipient of a great public education, and I see that's one of the first things that we're going to go, 'What are we going to raise?' The ignorant masses.
- Craig T. Nelson
Everyone
About
Someone once said about me that I talk to everyone the same, no matter what age they are. I don't see kids and adults. I see everyone the same.
- Dakota Fanning
Dancing
Miss
If I see somebody dancing really well, it can make me want to dance. Or it could be the music. But perhaps the thing I miss the most is that when you're dancing, everyday concerns vanish. It's a unique world.
- Damian Woetzel
Cry
Kind
I'm the kind of person that if I see someone else crying, I cry too. I take on that emotion.
- Dana Davis
Roads
Might
On the roads, it is one of those 'might is right' situations. If I see cars coming, I duck out of the way.
- Dane Bird-Smith
Bad
Bad Guy
When I watch myself, I see nothing but faults, like, 'This I need to do different, this I need to do different,' and so if there comes a point in time where I'm like, 'Man, this whole thing is just getting really stale,' I am not opposed to being the bad guy again.
- Daniel Bryan
Craft
Very
Prime Minister, I see you've already mastered the essential craft of the European politician, namely, the ability to say one thing in this chamber and a very different thing to your home electorate.
- Daniel Hannan
Numbers
Maths
When I multiply numbers together, I see two shapes. The image starts to change and evolve, and a third shape emerges. That's the answer. It's mental imagery. It's like maths without having to think.
- Daniel Tammet
My Life
About
What I'm having is this conflict in my life right now, that in New York, I see my directing friends and I see acting friends and they've all got this level of passion about either or both of those directions that I've never really found myself having.
- Danny Pintauro
Ideology
Part
Although, this is often used with negative connotations, I see ideology as an inherent part of culture.
- Dario Fo
Musicians
I Think
I think my biggest musical hero growing up was probably Ian MacKaye. He set a great example for all of us local musicians. Still, to this day, I see him as the best example of a right-on musician.
- Dave Grohl
Balloons
Guy
When I see someone interesting on the subway - the lady with her new Bible or the delivery guy holding down a dozen Mylar balloons - my mind goes in two different directions. Where are they coming from? And where are they going?
- David Ebershoff
Over
Reader
The reader becomes God, for all textual purposes. I see your eyes glazing over, so I'll hush.
- David Foster Wallace
Next
Show
Races always are good to show where you are reaching in your training as well as to keep you sharpened. Every race, in my program, I put it in a special way like a ladder, climbing up slowly and slowly to the next one. I see where my training is, and that is like a test.
- David Rudisha
About
Bill Clinton
I cannot conjure up an ounce of respect for Bill Clinton when it comes to the military. Every time I see him salute a Marine, it infuriates me. I don't think Bill Clinton cares one iota about what happens in a military unit.
- Jim Webb
See
Times
That Moorish architecture is all over the place, of course. It affects me everywhere I see it, as it does so many people. But Brand Library was a special place to me, and I know I've paid homage to it many times in my drawings.
- Jim Woodring
Geniuses
Pumped
There are geniuses, savants; I'm not one of them. I work hard, I see where popular culture's going to move, but I've gotta keep having information pumped into me. I look under every rock.
- Jimmy Iovine
See
Else
Art is interesting because there can be so many different perspectives in a piece of art. The way I see it may be completely different than the way somebody else sees it. It's interesting to hear what somebody sees in a piece of art compared to somebody else. It could be completely different, and that's interesting to me.
- Joakim Noah
Down
Give
If I see someone down, I'll try to give him a good laugh.
- Joe Cowley
Want
Give
Respect is the word I want. You have to earn it. You give, and you get it in return, that's how I see it.
- Joe Torre
Being
Atmosphere
I see the job of directing as being one of creating the right atmosphere, creating an environment where people can realize their full potential.
- Joe Wright
Hopeful
Very
I'm cynical by nature, but I am also very hopeful because I see people from the Left and the Right showing up to these tea parties. You have people, bikers, union members and guys in three-piece suits showing up to these things.
- Joe Wurzelbacher
15 Minutes
Had
I have a famous brother, and I see what his life's like. He can stay places 15 minutes, and then he's got to leave. So I've seen what it's like to be famous, and I haven't really aspired to be a huge mega-star - not that I've had that opportunity.
- Joel Murray
Mind
Orchestration
Straight-away the ideas flow in upon me, directly from God, and not only do I see distinct themes in my mind's eye, but they are clothed in the right forms, harmonies, and orchestration.
- Johannes Brahms
Him
Cox
Dr. Cox mentors the rookie doctors with a spoonful of dirt and then a cup of sugar. I see him as an archetypal descendent of two of my favorite curmudgeonly characters: Lou Grant and Louie De Palma.
- John C. McGinley
Out
Fit
If you can figure out where you fit into any particular story, you'll be okay. When you're not quite sure where you fit in, you try to be too many parts of the story. You gild the lily. I see it all the time.
- John C. McGinley
Very
Roman
To say Roman Reigns isn't connecting with an audience means you're not listening. I've watched a lot of Roman Reigns, and every single time I see him, I hear noise. He connects very well with our audience.
- John Cena
Process
Individual
The process of receiving information for me is seeing, hearing, and feeling their energy in my frame of reference. That doesn't mean I see the individual, unfortunately.
- John Edward
Myself
Words
Talking, talking. Spinning a web of words, pale walls of dreams, between myself and all I see.
- John Gardner
Artist
New
I see the new Latin artist as a pioneer, opening up doors for others to follow. And when they don't open, we crowbar our way in.
- John Leguizamo
