My dad was a movie star. Having that name was good and bad. People think it's a silver spoon. It's not.
Barack himself is very much a regular guy, not a silver spoon, incredibly smart, but, you know, he's a scholarship kid, made good use of the resources that were available to him, worked incredibly hard.
For some people, it's like I can't be a good actress because I grew up with a silver spoon.
It's not a good idea to match your shoes with a bag too stringently. Go for subtle similarity.
I made myself into what I thought was a big-time player, and nobody in L.A. seemed to care or believe I was any good. When I started hearing I wouldn't play in college, I would just let it simmer inside me and then be like, 'Okay. That's what you think? Okay.' The number zero was the only way I could express that.
I guess any simple idea that is really good will catch on quickly.
I really live a simple life and don't need very much to feel good and happy. Don't get me wrong; I believe you should get what you earn. Sometimes you have to fight for it.
The simple truth is that in order to become good, you have to be obsessed. You have to put in an awful lot of time and hard work and couple that with desire and unflagging perseverance.
I am not very good at expressing myself in a simple way so it can create mis-understandings and I hate that.
Today we are afraid of simple words like goodness and mercy and kindness. We don't believe in the good old words because we don't believe in good old values anymore. And that's why the world is sick.
We all like to look good. However, this basic human desire can often get in the way of our listening and our speaking. This tendency often evinces itself in two simple words: 'I know.' But if I know everything, what can I learn? Absolutely nothing.
I love dive bars, old movie theaters, live music and good food. The simplest things in life for me are the most important.
Terms like 'good' and 'bad' are extremely simplistic in what is a far more complex situation.
There is often a simplistic view that HDL is good, so that anything that raises HDL is good for you, and anything that lowers it is bad for you. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
The thing about a cartoon is, you can do whatever you want. The tightrope that we are walking on 'The Simpsons' and 'Futurama' is 'How do you continue to surprise the audience, but make them good surprises?' Not every surprise is good, but you want to continue jolting people.
If people want to simulate a godly lifestyle - great. If they don't - good luck with that.
Being booked for simulation is never good.
I love singin' in the car, it just makes me feel good.
My mother's brother is a very good singer. My grandfather took up classical singing lessons and learnt to play the harmonium.
I don't have a terrible singing voice, but I also wouldn't call it 'good.' I can carry a tune.
