He then departed, to make himself still more interesting, in the midst of a heavy rain.

It's not the number of trucks parked outside that make a movie interesting but if you have more money, you have more time. More time enables you to try out other possibilities or follow an interesting lead. I don't like indulgence, but to have more possibilities is always more interesting.

Christoph Waltz

Yes. The way people behave, the paradoxes, the contradictions. All these things we have to live with and still pretend that everything is only black or white. That, I think, is the most interesting thing in human nature. The fact that we have to do one thing and pretend something else. That’s when it becomes very interesting. If you can literally speak the way you feel, then it’s not interesting anymore. It’s when you have to lie that it becomes interesting.

Vincent Cassel

Go, and make interesting mistakes, make amazing mistakes, make glorious and fantastic mistakes. Break rules. Leave the world more interesting for your being here.

Neil Gaiman

A human being is only interesting if he's in contact with himself.

Nandita Das

Who knows what critics are thinking? I know that you make more of a name for yourself, make more of an interesting review, if you're kind of mean-spirited.

Paul Rudd

I love not being in a comfortable state, anyway. That makes for much more interesting storylines and an interesting story.

Katheryn Winnick

I've always made a point of playing parts where weight has nothing to do with it, and not just weight but looks. It's about being funny and being interesting, and I think there are a lot more interesting things to play than being overweight.

Sarah Baker

If you want to make more interesting pictures, become a more interesting person.

Jay Maisel

I dare make those comparisons, but we often said 'the making of' would be as interesting if not more interesting than the film.

Brad Pitt

So many people are willing to sleepwalk through things and fall into the not human, not interesting choice. To make the really interesting choice, you have to fight.

Maggie Gyllenhaal

I think it's interesting how you can associate a creative brand with a human being and use some of the good qualities of the human being and make it like a really tangible product that a lot of people can love.
