I don't know a kid who grew up in the '90s who wasn't obsessed with Disney, and I guess I never grew out of that phase, honestly. It's not just Disney: it's anything that has to do with fairytales for me. I think I just have Peter Pan Syndrome or something.
I don't worry when I go away for a while. I think there is a place for me. It may not be at the top of the heap. But that doesn't bother me, either. I think I will always be able to get work - which is the only thing I have ever really been interested in.
I'm an American first, and I think that's how most people are.
It's not the last one. Five's out, six is coming out in November, that's a single chapter, and then seven is the big horrifying one. And I think a couple after that to wrap the thing up.
It is a fine seasoning for joy to think of those we love.
With a lot of hair and make-up then I'm possibly, remotely attractive. But it's rare, I don't think I'm ugly but I'm nothing particularly special. I'm not a yoga and health girl. I don't exercise that much and I eat crap and smoke and bite my nails.
I think that all of us are 5-year-olds and we don't want to be embarrassed in the schoolyard.
I think that when you first read material or you first read a script or story and know you might be playing a part, it's important not to see yourself because it should be a challenge enough that it doesn't come easy.
I think the B-52's were a huge influence on Sleater-Kinney. The way that there'd be a really interesting guitar line that'd be really melodic and kind of simplistic, I really related to that. The sense of melody is really intense and fun. It's not just traditional song structures, but it's very melodic and draws you in, in kind of an immediate way.
I prefer to think of myself as a musician who is still learning and trying to do something every time out.
I think when people begin to tell their stories, everything changes, because not only are you legitimised in the telling of your story and are you found, literally, like you matter, you exist in the telling of your story, but when you hear your story be told, you suddenly exist in community and with others.
Life is not just one thing; life is a lot of things, and I think I've been lucky to do that.
The gift of song is just like... I think music is one of those true things in this world that is universal.
I would like to do theatre because it scares me, and I think you should do things that scare you.
Though we may have desires or bold goals, for whatever reason, most of us don't think we can achieve something beyond what we're qualified to achieve. Why, I ask, do we let reality interfere with our dreams?
I went to a Christian high school, so I went under my middle name. I don't think they would have accepted me in the school - 'This is Rebel'... so I have two middle names, Melanie Elizabeth, and I went under those. But Rebel's way cooler.
I figure I basically am a ghost. I think we all are.
When I get my heart rate up, I get good exercise and I think it's good for a lot of things, plus it's not hurting my hips right now.
I think it's a mistake if people just fall in love and think that that's the only thing you need to keep you happy. There's a lot more to being with someone than just love.
I just think, you know, when we talk about a politician, I think a person has to be themselves. Let the voters see the real you.
Every day after I wake up, I think, 'Wait... this can't be real; I'm still going to wake up.'
I think that if you start teaching about giving back and helping other people young, that will be a given for your child their whole life.
Even good characters have their dark sides, and I think it is important that women aren't seen as innately good.
Some persons have lived manly or womanly lives, and they lack but one thing - open confession of the Lord Jesus Christ. Some men think that they must come to him in a certain way - that they must be stirred by emotion or something like that.
As an entrepreneur, in many ways it's like looking into the crystal ball for what my company will hopefully go through as it starts to think about bigger challenges - scaling internationally, getting ready to go public, and all those different things.
Describing Woodstock as the 'big bang,' I think that's a great way to describe it, because the important thing about it wasn't how many people were there or that it was a lot of truly wonderful music that got played.
I think our relationship with Epic had run its natural course, and it happened to coincide with the fulfillment of our contract. We decided not to resign with them.
I think the relation between the monarchy and the press is very much a two-way street.
I think it's really important for me not to forget where I came from.
I like to think that my finest hour is still ahead of me, so I can look forward rather than look backward.
I think it's often discussed that leaving the Euro is an option for Greece. I think this is really not an option.
But I just think as a captain, everybody's different.
I've given birth to five babies and I breastfed every single one of these babies. To think that government has to go out and buy my breast pump for my babies. You wanna talk about the nanny state? I think we just got the new definition of a nanny.
Think about the way most companies currently hire. You post a job and then get blind resumes in response. This should be a social experience.
I think that the pendulum will swing back to the other side one day.
The trouble with those people is that they think all the best things are made in the cities. It is not so.
