No one likes someone who's really overconfident.
What was I like? I had a high-pitched voice. Sounded a bit like a girl. Spoke with a Stoke accent, tremendously naive. Overconfident. Tremendously overconfident. And underconfident at the same time - really, really bad combination! Gets you places, though.
If you meet someone on the street that likes something that you did or likes the way you brought this character to life, that's really rewarding. That's really cool.
There is a long history of research showing that people are overconfident about their abilities. But it turns out that people in general are not overconfident about their abilities; people with a fixed mindset are overconfident.
Well, I think we tried very hard not to be overconfident, because when you get overconfident, that's when something snaps up and bites you.
It really helped to have someone whose taste I really trusted who I knew was really smart and a really good writer. Sometimes I find it hard to judge my own work so it was good to have someone who could look at it. It was like, "Oh, she likes it, then it's good."
As someone that really likes painting and visual art but also likes video and movies and also music and recording and style and clothes, it was hard to pick what to do with my life.
Pellegrini gave me back the joy of playing football. He is like Arsene Wenger: someone who likes to joke, someone who likes to talk and take an interest in your life.
I'm someone who likes to listen, who likes to watch, and who likes to learn.
The working-class is now issuing from its hiding-place to assert an Englishman's heaven-born privilege of doing as he likes, and is beginning to perplex us by marching where it likes, meeting where it likes, bawling what it likes, breaking what it likes.
I'm someone who likes new things, likes change. But I also like challenges. I was a little bit of a prisoner to my challenge each time.
I'm by nature someone that quite likes to understand how things are working, likes some sense of structure, and I've fallen into the worst possible trade for that.
I think Ancelotti really likes London and he likes the way football is played over here. That doesn't surprise me because, after Italy, if you come here, you really enjoy the culture.
A lot about this industry is about who you know. If you set a really good example for yourself, and someone likes that, then they might recommend you to someone else. It doesn't matter what job you're in, any profession, it's always the same.
You can be happy with someone who likes you despite your faults - until you meet someone who likes your faults.
I don't really see myself as a sneakerhead. I think I'm someone that likes to have a nice pair of shoes on when they're playing.
I've really missed my Reformer Pilates sessions during lockdown because I'm someone who likes to workout with a lot of toys!
