I don't come from a comedy background or a stand-up background, but I think that sometimes there's a misconception that an actor who works primarily in comedy is a comedian. There's nothing wrong with being a comedian, but I'm absolutely not that. I can't think of anything more terrifying than doing stand-up!

Darren Boyd

I didn't come from a combat sports background where I had a real definitive background in anything to fall back onto.

Liz Carmouche

I come from more of a sculptural background so I think of the form before anything else.

Richard McGuire

Education is more than Pisa. Particularly musical education. We also need education and training for more than reasons of usefulness and marketability.

Johannes Rau

I never hear anything about education. Education - I guess it's just not sexy enough. And everybody claims to love their children and our children are the most important thing, but if that's the case, how come we never hear more about education as an election issue?

Mitch Albom

It's no easy matter to paint a background. I venture to say that the old painters had more difficulty with their grounds than with their figures. You know the story of Vandyke brought to Rubens with this recommendation: 'He already knows how to paint a background.' 'That is more than I can do!' was the reply.

William Morris Hunt

The majority of my background is multi-camera format, which is very broad and a very arch perception of reality. Whereas single camera tends to be more truthful and a little more intimate of a medium. Friends was an education in intelligent comedic banter; in intelligent vernacular. It was an education in scene study. It was an education in group dynamic. I came out of there with a masters degree in comedy.

Matt LeBlanc

I come from an extremely modest background. So now I have way more than what I'm used to.

Raftaar

Anything is possible. My background is a bad background, but a lot of people said I couldn't do it. You can do anything if you put your mind to it.

Michael Oher

We know that the gifts which men have do not come from the schools. If a man is a plain, literal, factual man, you can make a great deal more of him in his own line by education than without education, just as you can make a great deal more of a potato if you cultivate it than if you do not; but no cultivation in this world will ever make an apple out of a potato.

Henry Ward Beecher

I can't advise any of the young ones, because I don't know what their background was, but I would suggest that anyone who wants to be famous more than anything - there's a problem.

Shirley MacLaine

Some people may complicate it for you, but the formula is simple: Love God more than anything else. More than your ego. More than your money. More than your desires...More than your sleep at dawn. Love God more than anything else, and submission comes natural. Love God more than anything else, and all goodness will follow.

Yasmin Mogahed

I come from a prose background. I come from short story background, and that led me into novels.

Greg Rucka

More than anything, we must do better for our children's education.

Cory Booker

I can't advise any of the young ones, because I don't know what their background was, but I would suggest that anyone who wants to be famous more than anything - there's a real problem.

Shirley MacLaine

I definitely come from that background of the more subtle shifts, the long build... rather than the quick short-attention span dynamic.
