So sometimes I can really want a glass of wine but talk myself into believing that tea is as nice, and that's one thing to do to be nice to your skin. Actually, two things: you're not have the wine and you're drinking water. Also just working out. All the things you do to be healthy in your life help your skin.

Sherrilyn KenyonI don't really worry about the size of the part much any more. It's nice to have more time to work on the character, and to have big scenes to play. But if there's something playable there, and if it's interesting to do, then that's nice.
Alan AldaOne thing you can't help noticing in South America and in Latin culture, generally, is how nice people are.

And it's nice to offer up a place where people can be that experimental while offering some solid, proven comedy as well.

Because, like, you're smart and I'm stupid. Like for real. Come on y'all.
Britney SpearsI've taken people and fired them over a period of a year. I've fired them over a period of a month. I've fired them over a period of a day or a week, nice and easy, slow. The one thing that a firing always has in common is the next day they wake up and they hate Donald Trump, no matter how nice you are.

Eduardo PaolozziI have all my tricks to unplugging. Sometimes I just close my eyes and I breathe a couple of times, even if I'm in the middle of a conversation. It centers me. Dancing also helps me to unplug, so does writing music. I really enjoy going to Central Park and Upstate New York, when I really want to unplug from the city. Going to the library is great, too. There's just a nice equality about libraries, there's everyone from kids to senior citizens to students, it's a nice environment. I grab whatever book I feel attracted to and then I just sit there and read it for a little while.
KisseyTo be honest, at that point, just being so fresh to L.A., I was in the mind-set of just getting work, at all costs.

It's also nice to have somebody that I identify with.

Marianne FaithfullSome actors don't mind it. Those who are pretty. They think it's nice to be looked at because they are nice to look at. I appreciate that. I'm very happy to salute that aspiration. But I don't like the way I look so I don't like being photographed. I become defensive.
Richard GriffithsLove always looks nice. I don't really know anyone who doesn't enjoy it when they see it. Anyone who doesn't, I don't really want to know them.

Let us acknowledge all good, all delight that the worlds holds, and be content without it.

Rosario DawsonI never liked that ending either. More love streaming out the wrong way, and I don't want to be the kind that says the wrong way.

There were some nice parts, sure, all lemondrop and mellonball, laughing in silk pajamas and the grain of sugar on the toast, love love or whatever, take a number. I'm sorry it's such a lousy story.
Richard Siken
