Oddly Quotes

Oddly enough, Hendrix is not my favorite guitar player. There are very few guitar players I get feeling from Picture Quote #1

Reality does not easily give up meaning; it’s the biographer’s job to clobber it into submission. You’re meant not only to tame it but to extract substance, to identify cause and axiomatic effect. You subsist on the tactical omissions, the hollow words, the oddly unconnected dots Picture Quote #1

My husband and I oddly have worked together a couple of times. We did a ‘Veronica Mars’ episode together. We didn’t work together, but we were both in ‘Ghost World.’ We had a theater company in L.A., for a bunch of years. So, we’ve worked together a fair amount, and it’s always just great fun Picture Quote #1

Music is a work in progress. On a record, it gets frozen in time. And it’s oddly unnatural Picture Quote #1

Rules dieters’ find limitations oddly freeing, because the restrictions create a framework that’s easy to follow. Essentially, rules dieters don’t do well when they’re let off plan, mainly because they are usually emotionally attached to food in some way Picture Quote #1

Well, the wonderful thing about making movies, oddly enough, is that they’re sort of highly motivated graduate studies in one or another field Picture Quote #1

All human behavior, all human motivations, all man’s hopes and fears, were heavily colored and largely controlled by mankind’s tragic and oddly beautiful pattern of reproduction Picture Quote #1

Oddly enough, success over a period of time is more expensive than failure Picture Quote #1

I eat breakfast pretty much ‘round the clock - muffins in the morning, scones for lunch, cereal at night - which may be odd but is also oddly satisfying, if only because the choice is my own Picture Quote #1

With its brutal excesses and reliance on snitches and finks as informants, I don’t think it’s far off-kilter to describe the modern-day drug war as oddly similar to the Salem witch trials Picture Quote #1

I love clothes - I love shopping for clothes, I love wearing clothes, I love talking about clothes - but oddly, putting on the dress and walking around in front of people, that’s the place where I’m most uncomfortable Picture Quote #1

Reading the Bible can be like meeting someone you don’t know who, oddly, somehow seems to know you deeply. It’s uncanny Picture Quote #1

Well oddly enough, I liken the years at MGM, and I was there for about eight years, to doing stock, what we used to call repertory or stock, playing a whole bunch of different roles Picture Quote #1

When you’re scared, you’re still hanging on to life. When you’re ready to die, you let it go. A sort of emptying out occurs, a giving up on the world that seems oddly familiar even if you’ve never done it before Picture Quote #1

I stand in my own way on a daily basis. I don’t know if this is something I will ever overcome completely, and I’m oddly okay with that Picture Quote #1

Yeah I know you’re a creature of the night. Bringer of death, sucker of blood, needer of tans, so on and so forth. And oddly enough, I’m still unimpressed Picture Quote #1

What if lawmakers never spoke to their constituents? Oddly enough, that’s exactly how corporate America operates. Shareholders vote for directors, but the directors rarely, if ever, communicate with them Picture Quote #1

Oddly enough, my favorite genre is not fiction. I’m attracted by primary sources that are relevant to historical questions of interest to me, by famous old books on philosophy or theology that I want to see with my own eyes, by essays on contemporary science, by the literatures of antiquity Picture Quote #1

Oddly enough, Dame Edna is not interested in show business. Her friends in Los Angeles are mostly in the world of petroleum. She used to have some acting friends. Sadly, Joan Rivers has passed on. Larry Hagman was a close friend. A number of others Picture Quote #1

When I was 16, I had a job on the cleaning crew at a local hospital. I wore a pink uniform and cleaned bathrooms and buffed the hallway linoleum. Oddly, I don’t recall hating the job. I recall getting choked up at the end of the summer when I went to turn in my uniform and say goodbye to the ladies Picture Quote #1

Carrying a movie is both a great privilege, it’s a great opportunity, but it can be a great pressure, and sometimes that can make people behave very oddly Picture Quote #1

As a songwriter, oddly enough, my influences were people like Bob Dylan, The Velvet Underground, and Buddy Holly. Some psychedelic stuff, too Picture Quote #1

After all, film is so porous, and to my mind, so oddly occult, that I think that film itself absorbs odd energies like a living skin Picture Quote #1

I’m thinking of how unexpected and yet oddly preordained life can be. Events are upon you in an instant, unforseen and without warning, and often times marked with disappointment and tragedy, but equally often leading to a better understanding of the bittersweet truth of life Picture Quote #1

You can never know enough, never work enough, never use the infinitives and participles oddly enough, never impede the movement harshly enough, never leave the mind quickly enough Picture Quote #1

Oddly enough, I think that everybody can relate to revenge, on some level. Everyone has wanted to exact it, at some point, and everybody has tampered with the idea, even if they didn’t actually go through with it Picture Quote #1

I’m oddly not competitive. What I love about show business is there is a home for everyone Picture Quote #1

I love having a big family. I think it’s easier, oddly, in some ways, having three children as opposed to one Picture Quote #1

My thoughts are crowded with death and it draws so oddly on the sexual that I am confused to be attracted by, in effect, my own annihilation Picture Quote #1

If you don’t compromise your gift, if you write each day as well as you can, and then submit your work and not worry about it and go on to the next piece, you suddenly find oddly enough that you’re no more interested in the applause than the silence. You don’t hear either one of them. You can never listen to the naysayers. If you do you won’t survive Picture Quote #1
