Quotes by Jamie Dornan

It's a strange environment, being hounded. The paparazzi are cretins.

Quotes by Jamie Dornan

Quotes by Jamie Dornan

Quotes by James Welch

Shortly after this I was made a member of the boys' choir, it being found that I possessed a clear, strong soprano voice. I enjoyed the singing very much.

Quotes by James Weldon Johnson

I do not see how a people that can find in its conscience any excuse whatever for slowly burning to death a human being, or for tolerating such an act, can be entrusted with the salvation of a race.

Quotes by James Weldon Johnson

The lies the government and media tell are amplifications of the lies we tell ourselves. To stop being conned, stop conning yourself.

Quotes by James Wolcott

It isn't that NPR is matriarchal but that it has dedicated itself to not being patriarchal in its outlook and presentation, stipulating from the outset that its headline voices would not resound across the fruited plains from big male bags of air sent from Mount Olympus.

Quotes by James Turrell

If you're not an optimist, forget being an artist.

Quotes by James Turrell

Generally, we use light to illuminate other things. I like the thingness, the materiality of light itself. So it feels like it's occupying the space, making a plane, being something that was there, not just passing through. Because light is just passing through. I make these spaces that seem to arrest it for our perception.

Quotes by James Turrell

I woke up one morning to an email from my friend Alex that said she'd had her bag stolen. Ordinarily, I'm quite quick on the uptake, but - maybe because of the way it was worded - I immediately replied, 'What??????' As soon as I hit send, I realised I was being scammed. But then they replied, and I thought, 'Well, why not?'

Quotes by James Veitch

Quotes by James Surowiecki

Sincerity is impossible, unless it pervade the whole being, and the pretence of it saps the very foundation of character.

Quotes by James Purefoy

Feeling better is not actually being better.

Quotes by James Norton

I'm not that interested in just being around powerful people for the sake of it.

Quotes by James P. Gorman

I have a very toxic combination of being completely determined, inflexible, controlling and being totally shy, guilty at hurting anyone's feelings, hypersensitive to other people's needs - and it's just paralysing.

Quotes by James Murphy

If being in a band was my job, then I would quit. This is not a good job. A good job is in financial management.

Quotes by James Murphy

Quotes by James Longstreet

Pickett's lines being nearer, the impact was heaviest upon them.

Quotes by James Longstreet

The process of being filmed was, I found, peculiar but not discomfiting. At 13, you are malleable, adaptable, better able to take the unusual in your stride.

Quotes by James Lovegrove

Strength instead of being the lusty child of passion, grows by grappling with and subduing them.

Quotes by James M. Barrie

Me being at Coventry, instead of a big Premier League club, probably helped me develop. You don't get put in the academy system, playing Under-18s and Under-23s.

Quotes by James Maddison

The only way you're going to improve is playing games and learning, being a regular week on week.

Quotes by James Maddison

What distinguishes the campaign finance issue from just about every other one being debated these days is that the two sides do not divide along conventional liberal/ conservative lines.

Quotes by James Harden

I've always suffered from being labelled a horror writer - just because I didn't go to university, just because I still talk in my natural voice, just because I'm not as articulate as Martin Amis.

Quotes by James Herbert

I've never had any interest at all in being a journalist or writing some sort of historically accurate autobiography.

Quotes by James Frey

After 37 years in the Navy, there were no further jobs in uniform, and it was my time to transition. But I wanted to continue to mentor and educate young people, which is, of course, a big part of being a senior officer in the military.

Quotes by James G. Stavridis

Being unprepared heightens nerves.

Quotes by James Galway

I think it is most important for a teacher to play the pieces and studies that are being played by the student.

Quotes by James Galway

The body itself is an information processor. Memory resides not just in brains but in every cell. No wonder genetics bloomed along with information theory.

Quotes by James Gleick

When I was quite young, I dreamed of being a painter.

Quotes by James Earl Jones

I think self-criticism is sort of a given when you're an actor. It's also about being curious and not being flippant. Anyone who accepts being in this noble profession is automatically self-critical.

Quotes by James Earl Jones

Speech is a very important aspect of being human. A whisper doesn't cut it.

Quotes by James Earl Jones

No real-world human being brings to the U.S. presidency the range of attributes necessary for full success in the job.

Quotes by James Fallows

When I was living in China, I learned to make things hyper-explicit because often they were being read by people whose command of English kept them from picking up what I thought were obvious signals.

Quotes by James Fallows

I've learned that I need to spell out, even in cases seemingly so blatant, that in fact I am not taking this at face value and am being 'sarcastic.'

Quotes by James Fallows

I can never tire of speaking of the bridges of Paris. By day and by night have I paused on them to gaze at their views; the word not being too comprehensive for the crowds and groupings of objects that are visible from their arches.

Quotes by James Fenimore Cooper

The Italian word 'stanza' means 'a room', and a room is a good way to conceive of a stanza. A room, generally speaking, is sufficient for its own purposes, but it does not constitute a house. A stanza has the same sense of containment, without being complete or independent.

Quotes by James Fenton

I was blown away by being able to color. Then I started to draw... bringing a blank white canvas to life was fascinating.

Quotes by James De La Vega

Being a good actor isn't easy. Being a man is even harder. I want to be both before I'm done.

Quotes by James Dean

I think it helps a lot when they tell people that Teri Hatcher likes you. If you're Teri Hatcher's boyfriend, suddenly you're hunky I guess. I've spent 40 years being average and now I'm Teri hatcher's boyfriend and here we are. I've been really fortunate.

Quotes by James Denton

My wife being a trainer helps, because when I'm at home, everything we keep at the house is pretty healthy.

Quotes by James Denton

Clearly, unless the Lord chooses to explain Himself to us, which often He does not, His motivation and purposes are beyond the reach of mortal man. What this means in practical terms is that many of our questions - especially those that begin with the word 'why' - will have to remain unanswered for the time being.

Quotes by James Dobson

We've got people, our friends and neighbors, who are losing their jobs, factories being closed. We have to get America moving again.

Quotes by James Douglas

I could give you some names of Workshop participants who are as good as many who are being published but haven't had the right editor recognize their merit or have not been adequately published.

Quotes by James E. Gunn

If we are to attract private investment, if we are to be able to make the legislature feel the moneys from taxpayers are being used properly, we must be ever vigilant of the duty to efficiently use all funds we receive.

Quotes by James E. Rogers

'Jamie' is what my mother gave me, and that takes the onus off of being big. Somebody thinks, 'Oh, Jamie - how threatening can he be?'
