If you don't feel challenged, it's because you're not doing enough. Ballet should never feel comfortable. Comfortable is lazy!

Stephanie MillerIt's kind of like being a writer in the sense that you always hear other writers say, 'Well, the best way to start writing is to just start writing.' The same goes for improvisation. You want to start improvising, just start playing notes. And the more you do that, the more comfortable - or not comfortable - but I guess how you're able to adapt to situations.

Jay RockefellerI think it's just that as a creative person, in all the different things that I've done or ways that I've found to express myself, I've consistently come up against resistance in certain areas. I think that the world is not comfortable with female sexuality. It's always coming from a male point of view, and a woman is being objectified by a man - and even women are comfortable with that. But when a woman does it, ironically, women are uncomfortable with it. I think a lot of that has to do with conditioning.

Leighton MeesterWe like t'believe that everything's got an explanation...that our years on this earth make a safe kinda sense. We build ourselves up with explantions and rationalizations t'make us nice and comfortable--an' some people manage t'get through their lives without ever having to question any of it. But I think most of us have learned that...just when we least expect it...something comes droppin' down out o' the heavens...that blows all our comfortable ideas right t'pieces.

Amanda SeyfriedHave no regrets. Every relationship leads you to where you're meant to be. Learn to be comfortable with being alone. Learn to be comfortable with saying no to people; we put everybody else before ourselves. Read great literature; don't get all your information from TV.

And, as my mother always said to me, "Don't let anyone break your spirit!"

SBTRKTI think that by now, in the very beginning when I first joined the show, General Landry was like a new kid in school. I was coming into a situation I didn't really know much about, and now, after a couple of years, the character's kind of mellowed and gotten comfortable working at the command center and very comfortable with his troops.

Christina RicciHaving serious consequences to your decision-making process is something you have to be very comfortable with. It's something you learn and you practise over time, so I encourage people to find some way to challenge themselves. The other thing I share with people, which I've learned over time, is self-confidence. You have to get very comfortable with saying, "Well, every day, I'm just going to give my best. I have skill sets I've learned, I'm going to employ them, and my best is going to be good enough".
Jeremy HansenDeep down, underneath all his layers of stupidity, heโs a really good man. He may act out far too many selfish thoughts, says all the wrong things at all the wrong times, but behind closed doors heโs a best friend.

He may not be someone that you feel comfortable sitting next to at a dinner party but for me, heโs someone that I feel comfortable sharing my life with.

Sam ShoemakerTo find Margo Roth Spiegelman, you must become Margo Roth Spiegelman. And I had done many of the things she might have done: I had engineered a most unlikely prom coupling.

But I could not yet become the wounded person.

Finley Peter DunneWhat's great is that the picture is already taken before it goes public. It's in secret.

Barbara Brown TaylorI've always been quite mature because of the way my parents brought me up.

Saoirse RonanI had come to discover that "safe" was an illusion, a pretense that adults wrapped around their children- and sometimes themselves- to make the world seem comfortable.

Some of the monsters were people we knew. People we thought we could trust.

Britney SpearsSome comics get drunk before a show. I don't. When I get drunk, I don't want to stand in front of a bunch of people that I don't know. That does not sound comfortable.
