I think this was as good a Democratic Convention [ this was my 24th convention] as I have seen since the 1976 convention, which nominated Jimmy Carter.I just thought it was a spectacularly successful convention. I don't think Hillary Clinton's speech was spectacular, but I don't think she's a spectacular speaker.

Mark Shields

I've always told my children that Americans will tell you pretty much anything, but that convention dictates that we don't like to talk money or politics.

Susan Straight

I'm part of this show called "Shots Fired" that is premiering on FOX. It's right after the Super Bowl. It's a pretty incredible show. I'm pretty much the voice of the show, so the voice of the opening credit record and the songs in between is pretty much my voice.

B.J. The Chicago Kid

I think it's very pretty. Can it be pretty if no one thinks it's pretty? I think it's pretty. If you're the only one? That's pretty pretty. And what about the boys? Don't you want them to think you're pretty? I wouldn't want a boy to think I was pretty unless he was the kind of boy who thought I was pretty.

Jonathan Safran Foer

Well, I think it's pretty much established that I just didn't have any interest in coaching in the pros.

Bobby Knight

Once you've established yourself with hits that become part of people's lives, then they pretty much always want to see you.

Toni Tennille

I think that if you're passionate about something and you're driven and you're focused, then you can pretty much do anything that you want to do in life.

Dave Grohl

We're very much perfectionists, so when we're putting on a huge show and want to play to the best of ability, we rehearse intensely. And I have a guitar pretty much in my hand for at least five hours before doing a show. I'm just noodling and mucking around and working on some of the songs here and there.

Synyster Gates

If my eyebrows are cool, if my eyeliner is popping, if I'm moisturized, then I can pretty much wear whatever I want. I think if your hair and your face are together, I think it's pretty much polished!

Kehlani

I'm pretty much an open book. I've pretty much talked about anything I'm going through onstage. Between interviews and curious fans, I've been asked everything. And I always give answers. I don't shy away from anything.

Kevin Hart

The rules your parents teach you to live by are very different than the rules the world actually runs by. Most of the conventional wisdom is not only wrong, it's a lie told to us by people who want to control us. It doesn't help us, it helps them. Pretty much everything we're told as children (and adults, really) by the established power structures in our lives are made up fairytales us to reinforce that control: Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the tooth fairy, fat-free frozen dinners, religion, and metering lights on the highway--the list goes on

Tucker Max

If I'm doing a talk show or an interview, or pretty much anything where I can't control the context, I'm loath to do the character.

Stephen Colbert

People think of us as an information distributor because that's how they relate to the Internet. But most of the time people already have pretty well established opinions.
