Look, I like gritty. I write gritty. There is a time and a place for gritty. I'll take my Batman gritty, thank you, and I will acknowledge that such a portrayal means that my 11-year-old has to wait before he sees The Dark Knight. But if Hollywood turns out a Superman movie that I can't take him to? They've done something wrong.

Greg Rucka

I definitely love when things get gritty and they get a bit dirty!

Elliot Knight

When I think about political races, and certain consultants, the word that comes to mind is dirty. Dirty, dirty, DIRTY!

Angela Alioto

They don't really focus on that history here in America. I remember growing up as a kid, history class was very washed-over. They didn't really get into the gritty bits of slavery. It's a very, very small section in the history books. It's not something they really touch on directly with American curriculums.

Aldis Hodge

Pulp Fiction is a, uh, gritty, urban satire. Pump Friction is a uh-uh, a bunch of uh, dudes and ladies having dirty sex.

Norm MacDonald

One of the main reasons I wanted to do 'Freefall' was that it's a complete contrast to what people see of me from being in the band. It's a gritty role and a gritty film.

Sarah Harding

There's two kinds of dirty - dirty and sewer-dirty. Danny Ferry is sewer-dirty and has been ever since he was at Duke.

Shaquille O'Neal

Liberals want to live downtown. All over America - in New York, San Francisco, Chicago, Georgetown - there are crowds of liberals living in the gritty, ugly, dirty neighborhoods sensible people are trying to flee.

P. J. O'Rourke

Sometimes games may not go the way you plan it, and sometimes you have to do the dirty, gritty stuff well - you have to tackle; you have to run. I learned that when I was young, and it is a good feeling to work hard for the team, to get the ball back.

Jesse Lingard

I remember, growing up as a kid, history class was very washed-over. They didn't really get into the gritty bits of slavery. It's a very, very small section in the history books. It's not something they really touch on directly with American curriculums.

Aldis Hodge

University is sheltered from the business world and they think they should not have any connection with the businesses because maybe the business is dirty or not very good.

Maurice Levy

'Dirty Jobs' is maybe the simplest show in the history of TV, with the possible exception of 'The Gong Show'. I go around the country; we've shot in every state. And we spend a day with people who do jobs that are dirty or dangerous or ridiculous or difficult.

Mike Rowe

'Bosch' itself - it has a huge fanbase already from the Michael Connelly books, so it was definitely intriguing because you know going in that there's all those people who will want to watch it, and I knew it was going to be a down-and-dirty, gritty, no-make-up part, so that was scary and yet so exciting.

Annie Wersching

One thing that's true of gritty people is they love what they do, and they keep loving what they do. So they're not just in love for a day or a week. People who are really gritty - they're still interested.

Angela Duckworth

I never did a dirty armpit. You can look dirty, but you can't be dirty.

Kate Moss

I believe that Manila can be a reflection of your state of mind. Being a city of extreme contrasts it's easy to see how it can become an intense personal experience. Manila can be chaotic and spiritual, dirty and divine, gritty and gorgeous all at once. If you don't find beauty and poetry here, you will never find it anywhere.
