If somebody asked for the first draft of something I'd written, it'd probably be pretty close to whatever got published. I get enjoyment out of writing, but I get absolutely no enjoyment out of rewriting, so I don't do much of it. The more you work on something, certainly, the better it gets. But there's also a pretty clear law of diminishing returns.

Chuck Klosterman

There's something really special for a young person to sit in an audience and discover somebody, and it's rare to do because so much of a movie's economics are based on pre-existing actors or actresses.

Craig Brewer

Every person born in this world represents something new, something that never existed before, something original and unique.

Martin Buber

When you're a working actor you see a lot of scripts all the time, but to get to do something that's really well written it's a rare privilege.

Killian Scott

Every one will be something worth while, something rare, something perfect.

Wallace D. Wattles

I pre-screen restaurants because my objective is to never have a bad meal, and I get pretty close to that.

Robert Sietsema

It's simple, you just take something and do something to it, and then do something else to it. Keep doing this, and pretty soon you've got something.

Jasper Johns

I never felt pretty. I don't feel pretty now. I'm not a pretty person. I don't like pretty. So I don't feel badly. And I think it worked out well, because I found that all the girls I know who got by on their looks, as time went on and they faded, they were nothing. And they were very disappointed. When you're somebody like myself, in order to get around and be attractive, you have to develop something, you have to learn something, you have to do something. So you become a bit more interesting.

Iris Apfel

I would much rather hear a song that's written from a fresh perspective, using ideas that have existed in rock & roll for 50 years, than something that is incredibly abrasive to my ears but is new.

Ben Gibbard

When I say 'rare,' it's my own term. It's like you're doing something with a photo that is dominant that no one has ever seen before. #Rare means that it can only be seen here. It's just a rare moment that I'm sharing with the world.

Theophilus London

I have seen 'Thor', yeah. It's fantastic. Being that close to something, it's often pretty hard to watch yourself, but the film in so many ways is so impressive that I was swept along with it like an audience member, and that's a pretty good sign.

Chris Hemsworth

In those perfect moments you find beauty you never knew existed. You find yourself and you friends all over again, you find something to fight for, something to love. Something to show the world.

Gerard Way

I think there is a natural thing that you feel when you've written something taboo because you just don't want to expose the people you're close to.

Irvine Welsh

I think our customers don't need anything. They just want something special. This is why we do collections - not just the Spring fashion show, but the pre - Fall and cruise lines too. The customers love to find something in the shop they don't see in a magazine. This is the trick about the cruise and pre-Fall collections. Nobody knows about them. When you go to the shop, you really find something you don't see anywhere else.

Stefano Gabbana

It's very common for people to recommend something to me because they're going on what I've already written, when, what really is the case, is that you want to write about something you haven't written about, in ways that you haven't done before.

Tom Stoppard

A boy admiring a pretty girl. A rare thing to be certain. But love-true love-is something else.
