I feel like my 50 years at Harvard were an interlude. I'm really a New Yorker.
A lot of women in New Zealand feel like they have to make a choice between having babies and having a career or continuing their career. So is that a decision you feel you have to make or that you feel you've already made?
I feel unfinished business with the WBO title because that was my first loss when I went to New Zealand with Joseph Parker.
I always say the new album is the best one yet. I always feel that - I really do, because it's the latest and it's the newest and it's a little bit better.
There is a big push that we all are engaged in, in wanting to have the newest in innovation - and I think that's all really great. But I also feel that human beings need to be aware of, and grounded in, history.
If there's one thing special about me, it's that I seem familiar. People feel like I live next door.
I don't feel like I have to be the nice girl.
The thing that drives people more often than not is they genuinely feel that they can make a difference. So that means there are nice people in politics.
Whenever I've been stuck on a project, it's always brought me solace to the return to books that moved me in the past. It's a nice way to get outside my own head; and it brings me back to one of the most important reasons I write at all: to bring some pleasure to readers, to make them think or feel.
I didn't feel comfortable as an executive. I felt comfortable around artists and record producers... and then I found my niche: I gotta find great producers, and I produce them.
One thing that I know and I feel Nigerians will celebrate is continuity and peace.
I think there is an element of nihilism about, but I don't think most artists feel their work is meaningless.
With a Nine Inch Nails show, I'm building on a legacy that comes with a certain set of expectations. I have to push that forward, I have to reinvent myself, I have to feel current and valid.
I sleep as much as I want. I'll sleep, like, 11 hours, unless I'm working. Sometimes I do feel like, 'This is weird; I should just get up so I can fit into the world.' Then I'm like, 'Why?' I don't have a nine-to-five job.
I wrote 'White Teeth' in the late nineties. I didn't really feel trepidatious about it. It was a different time.
I got injured just before we filmed 'Ninja Warrior,' which stopped me playing football with my mates. I haven't played football since. I'm crocked now, my back has gone and I feel like my body has packed in.
I am a tender-hearted person, and I feel everything to the ninth degree.
Nothing that you do will ever feel good if you let people convince you that you have no choice.
I wanted a name on my shirt that represented who I am, and I feel I have no connection with the Alli surname.
Whenever I work on any Yash Raj film, I feel that they believed in me, and that's why I have been able to be in films today. I had no connection with movies apart from watching them.
