For Me Quotes

I need to push myself. I’m not saying that I just want to do anything that’s shocking, but when you have that combination of a script that’s really beautiful and extremely shocking, it’s exciting for me Picture Quote #1

That’s the weirdest thing about television for me is that you’re getting feedback in the middle of the work Picture Quote #1

There are some different things I’m writing and developing, but I don’t know where they’ll go. They’re fun stuff that I would be in and are written in my voice, for me Picture Quote #1

I deliberately went to boarding school. It was my choice. My mum was abroad and I wanted to wean myself off being dependent. It was a very important time for me to be able to create my own individual, independent life; just as a way of growing up Picture Quote #1

You know, a lot of actors I think go into acting for therapy from whatever trauma has affected them as children. But for me, I think I sought out the drama. That’s why I like doing what I do Picture Quote #1

So in some ways my life, my background has been isolating and I think I’m a bit more scared as a person. I don’t walk alone or in the dark. If I go out the driver will wait for me to go into the house Picture Quote #1

For me it’s about the music, and it always has been. Maybe for some other people it’s more about money Picture Quote #1

A suffering world cries for mercy, as far as the eye can see. Lawyers around every bend in the road, lawyers in every tree Picture Quote #1

I happen to like household chores and resent them only when performing them makes it difficult for me to fulfill my professional duties Picture Quote #1

As for men, those myriad little detached ponds with their own swarming corpuscular life, what were they but a way that water has of going about beyond the reach of rivers? Picture Quote #1

It is not important for me as a writer that you leave a piece of writing of mine with either an agreement or even a resonance with what I have said. What is important is that you leave with the resonance of what you have felt and what you thought in reaction to that Picture Quote #1

I am afraid I shall have to give up my trade; I am far too inert to keep up with organic chemistry, it is becoming too much for me, though I may boast of having contributed something to its development. The modern system of formulae is to me quite repulsive Picture Quote #1

I know from experience that nobody can give me a tip or a series of tips that will make more money for me than my own judgment Picture Quote #1

The process that I want to call scientific is a process that involves the continual apprehension of meaning, the constant appraisal of significance accompanied by a running act of checking to be sure that I am doing what I want to do, and of judging correctness or incorrectness. This checking and judging and accepting, that together constitute understanding, are done by me and can be done for me by no one else. They are as private as my toothache, and without them science is dead Picture Quote #1

For men to focus on controlling women’s reproduction to solve a society’s problems seems nothing short of mad or, at best, superstitious. But men’s superstition or insanity has real and dire consequences for the women who are its object. And states, too, home in on women’s bodies, perhaps to create the illusion that men are in control of uncontrollable forces. Indeed, almost all governments try to control women’s bodies and regulate their appearance in some way Picture Quote #1

You may not remember the time you let me go first. Or the time you dropped back to tell me it wasn’t that far to go. Or the time you waited at the crossroads for me to catch up. You may not remember any of those, but I do and this is what I have to say to you: Today, no matter what it takes, we ride home together Picture Quote #1

Acting is what I love to do. I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I don’t think of it as work. It’s really fun for me Picture Quote #1

The trouble is that right now I want to put as much work into football as I can. It’s very important for me to get off to a good start. By the same token, I feel a responsibility to handle the media and those sort of things Picture Quote #1

Being a single mother was the right thing for me. But I have a tremendous amount of help from my friends. They’re in love with my kids, and my kids are in love with them Picture Quote #1

I have over a hundred clocks. I’ve got fancy clocks and clocks from all over the world that people made for me Picture Quote #1

There are so many things to be worried about, and I wanted to make a record that people could put on, and it would lift them up the way the sun did for me each day Picture Quote #1

As an actor you accept that you have to publicise what you do, but as for the whole personal life thing that people sometimes choose, no, that’s not for me Picture Quote #1

For me, I grew up in a house doing charity work for homeless people, and my parents had a lot of homeless friends. We were always taught to not discriminate and not judge Picture Quote #1

I fell in love with electronics, which for me was the terra incognita, because I had never heard such sounds. If you’d asked me 50 years ago, I would have said the future of music is only electronic, but I would have been wrong. I learnt how to produce everything I needed with live instrumentalists, so I don’t need electronics Picture Quote #1

Before my first child was born, I had nothing going on professionally really, and it’s been a very blessed period of creativity for me since he arrived. It’s very surreal. It’s almost as if the babies are out there pulling strings somewhere, deciding what kind of life they want to be born into Picture Quote #1

I think comedy does have that powerful thing that doesn’t seem too preachy because you’re also making people laugh, so it’s really kind of a good tool for messaging Picture Quote #1

For me, style is about how you feel that day and what inspires you, as well as taking chances and making mistakes. Everything has to be comfortable. If things are too tight or too constricting, I feel out of my element Picture Quote #1

I was a very determined kid. I couldn’t imagine any other life for myself. This happens to kids who are different in any way. How am I going to make a life? Who am I going to be when I grow up? Will there be a place for me in the world? Acting gave me a sense of purpose, but it also gave me a sense that I would survive, that I would find my place Picture Quote #1

For me to want to be an actor was an improbable idea. I wasn’t beautiful or pretty in any conventional way. I wasn’t an ingenue at 22. But I was always certain of it and certain of its power. I felt the power when I went to the theater at 9, 10, 12 and 14 Picture Quote #1

Some writers are curiously unmusical. I don’t get it. I don’t get them. For me, music is essential. I always have music on when I’m doing well. Writing and music are two different mediums, but musical phrases can give you sentences that you didn’t think you ever had Picture Quote #1
