My goal is to broaden and deepen the range of African-American characters on television, so I always try to show human beings.

Andre Braugher

A lot of what is wrong with corporate America has to do with a culture filled with antibodies trained to expel anything different. HR departments often want cookie cutter employees, which inevitably results in cookie cutter solutions.

Nolan Bushnell

I'm usually attracted to more interesting types of men. I have no desire to be with a cookie-cutter Ken doll.

Ice Cube

I didn't mind being in a school with a small African-American population. The African-American-community was very tight, and that was great. But I also wanted to interact with other types of folks.

Aisha Tyler

Often, female characters are quite one dimensional, especially in a two hour film; television gives characters room to breathe and develop.

Elizabeth Debicki

... Rembrandt is not a painter at all. He is a creator, who creates his beings, three dimensional living beings, on a two-dimensional flat surface which acts as a mute, and enforces silence on them.

I had very supportive parents that made the way for me, even at a time when there were very few women - no women, really; maybe two or three women - and very few, fewer than that, African-American women heading in this direction, so there were very few people to look up to. You just had to have faith.

Lauren Oliver

I'm from Long Island, which is a very cookie-cutter place.

Madison Beer

No human beings are one-dimensional, and if they feel one-dimensional to you, it's because you don't know them.

Dominic Monaghan

A lot of the television industry is so cookie-cutter. In general, there are so many shows that are easy and bland to watch. You can tune in at any time and know exactly where you are in the story arc because it's pretty much the same every week.

Adam Baldwin

Beyond this world there are myriad worlds, thousands of inter-dimensional planes with different types of beings going through other cycles of existence. Beyond all beings is something that is eternal.

Frederick Lenz

Even when I'm writing animation, I think of them as real people. I think of them as completely three-dimensional beings, even if it's a talking teapot. I don't think of them as one-dimensional drawn characters running around. Maybe that's why, to me, there's really no difference in writing the two - animation versus live action.

Linda Woolverton

I lost years of my life to prison because of two-dimensional and misogynist stereotypes.

Amanda Knox
