Maybe I'm so attracted to actors because I'm not ready for the 'settled down' thing yet.

Charles EisensteinSomething that has always attracted me to even taking on the occupation of actor is the idea that I could be lucky enough to portray different characterizations from different places in the world, whether it's speaking another language or taking on a dialect and building a history from where they were born.

Lake Bell[There] are cases where there is no dishonesty involved but where people are tricked into false results by a lack of understanding about what human beings can do to themselves in the way of being led astray by subjective effects, wishful thinking or threshold interactions.

Sometimes they have lasted for fifteen or twenty years and then they gradually die away.
Irving LangmuirMann is widely recognized as a master of irony and ambiguity, yet it's remarkable how quickly people foreclose options he carefully leaves open.

Jonah HillI have a great respect for incremental improvement, and I've done that sort of thing in my life, but I've always been attracted to the more revolutionary changes. I don't know why.

Martin J. WhitmanI think a lot of the reason people are attracted to the Keystone pipeline is because at least we're doing something. There's a fear that society will collapse if it's not acting.

Mark TwainWhen you start in the childhood period, when you begin to form a comic sense, it was the radio comedians - from the last days of radio and the first days of television. And Spike Jones.

Edgar CayceMy parents said I'd always been attracted to music from an early age. The classic story is I started singing before I talked.

The words would be all garbled, because I didn't know how to talk yet.
