Zitat des Tages über Ich bin / I Am:
I am not one who - who flamboyantly believes in throwing a lot of words around.
I am obsessed with kale. I make kale salads and kale chips, and I think it's so yummy.
I am never going to sound like Johnny Mathis.
I have been skiing since I was in school, but I'm not great. I am never going to break an Olympic record, I just want to go down the hills, on red or blue runs, but not... black.
I would be loath to speak ill of any person who I do not know deserves it, but I am afraid he is an attorney.
Well, I think in my first two novels, both the characters are pretty neurotic, which I would say that I am.
I am as confounded by dogs as I am indebted to them.
If I am to choose two words that best describes myself, they are 'self-esteem' and 'guts.' Guts helped me become a global model.
I am a mystery to myself.
I am always a little surprised when anyone sees anything I make, so being nominated for the Oscar is beyond amazing - what a tremendous honor.
My grandmother was a teacher, my sister was a teacher, my daughter was a teacher and is now a superintendent in northern California, and my son-in-law is a high school principal. I am surrounded.
I've found that I've settled into myself a little bit more in last year and started wearing things that I feel comfortable with and my own style and... I decided to just embrace the person that I am and the look I like, and what I think is pretty.
I am a big believer that eventually everything comes back to you. You get back what you give out.
My wife is very interested in fashion. I am absolutely not. I couldn't give a toss. Fashion is a perfectly valid thing to be interested in. I'm just not particularly interested in pop culture. I think I am more interested in things that have a settled permanence about them.
I am sensible of the velocity of the moments, and entering that part of my head alert to the motion of the world I am aware that life was never perfect, never absolute. This bestows contentment, even a fearlessness.
I am a bit of a bad boy. I have tattoos and I mess around. That's part of my image, so it's cool.
I live my life exactly the way I want to. Nothing stops me from going out or being anywhere that I want to be. I am doing whatever I want to do. I do not live my life according to any restrictions whatsoever!
I am about to get involved with the biggest cancer hospital in Norway. They are building a fitness center to work with patients. I will be a consultant.
I am enormously honored to be one of the spokesmen of the New Age Womens Health Campaign, so you'll be seeing me in public service announcements and public appearances supporting the campaign.
I am interested in art as a means of living a life; not as a means of making a living.
I am prepared to die, but there is no cause for which I am prepared to kill.
In the same way I am addicted to puddings - the sweeter the better - I have become addicted to the daily routines my Pilates and Gyrotonic guru, Nada, puts me through.
I am being frank about myself in this book. I tell of my first mistake on page 850.
I am not here as my party's nominee. I am unique among the 100 senators in that regard.
I'm black, I don't feel burdened by it and I don't think it's a huge responsibility. It's part of who I am. It does not define me.
I'm pleased to have outsold great writers. But I'm not insane - I realize I am a writer people buy to take on vacation.
I like cinema. I am very fond of it. But from time to time I feel like having some time on my own.
The film itself should interact with the audience. In the case of 'Queen of Katwe', people are laughing, sobbing and dancing. I am taking them on a ride... It is not like I am asking them for handouts.
I am the eldest child; it's lonely at the top.
I would love to continue in music, with writing... but I am not the kind of person who will hang around if I start to become irrelevant. If that happens, I will bow down gracefully, raise my kids, and have a garden. And I am going to let my hair go gray when I am older. I don't need to be blonde when I'm 60!
I am a simple man, though my wife says I am complicated. I'll trust her on that one.
I am and always will be a leader.
I am tired. My arm aches. My head boils. My feet are cold. But I am not aware of any weakness.
The problem to solve is, whether a single or a double government would be most advantageous; and, in considering that point, I am met by this difficulty - that I cannot see that the present form of government is a double government at all.
The first thing I think about when I wake up most mornings is the fact that I'm tired. I have been tired for decades. I am tired in the morning and I am tired while becalmed in the slough of the afternoon, and I am tired in the evening, except right when I try to go to sleep.
I think; therefore, I am the center of the universe.
