I've been living with myself all of my life, so I know all of me. So when I watch me, all I see is me. It's boring.
There is danger from all men. The only maxim of a free government ought to be to trust no man living with power to endanger the public liberty.
I don't get in there and create a character. It's more of a voice that I hear living inside the music.
I grew up in Manhattan. For Manhattanites, Brooklyn was the sticks, a second-rate civilization. My friends and I, we were so snobby. Living in the Bronx or Brooklyn was incredible... for me, that was like a foreign country.
I don't know if you ever say to yourself that you want to be an actress. It eventually becomes a social function - you are an actress and you make a living out of it, but at the beginning it's more a matter of how to survive, or how to exist in a certain way.
I tend not to think about living to some grand old age. Then again, I don't think about dying, either.

If you're the person living closest to the parent who's going to need help, and you take on the whole role of primary caregiver, you can be pretty sure your sibling who lives farthest away is going to call you and say, 'You don't know what you're doing.' Because they're not on the spot, and they probably feel guilty.
A lot of people in this country right now are living with multiple generations under one roof, struggling to make ends meet.
The winters are too long, and there's only one airline, so it's difficult to escape when you feel frustrated or claustrophobic. The audience for our films isn't very large, so it's difficult to support an industry. But, Iceland is beautiful. Sometimes it's hard to imagine living anywhere else.
Being a photographer is like listening to music. If you have a camera, by just living your life you're bound to find some things that are worth taking a picture of. You don't have to be an audiophile to have taste in music. It happens through osmosis.
Now, wages in the automobile industry are made up of two components, what we call base rates and the cost of living factor which is fed in by the operation of the escalator.

I moved to Kentish Town from Chelsea in 1983, partly because I had a lot of friends already living in the area and because it took an hour off the journey to my house in Suffolk. It has a villagey feel, and it's still a very mixed community, which I like.
The only people who have control over their careers are the ones you see on the covers of magazines. Everyone else is just plodding along making a living. The key is not to live over your means and overdo it.
An energy tax punishes senior citizens, it punishes rural Americans, if you use electricity it punishes you. This bill will increase your cost of living and may kill your job.
There are many more serial killers living outside the prison walls than inside.
To me, the good thing about living in L.A. is diversity in lifestyle choices, color, and religion.
Our society has changed in unforeseeable ways since Social Security was created. For example, we are living longer, healthier, and more productive lives and while this is all great news, this has also placed added pressure on America's retirement system.
I think the rock'n'roll myth of living on the edge is a pile of crap.
I'm not a doctor - so I can't describe flashbacks well - but it is like you're living it again.

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.
I don't do nostalgia. It just doesn't occur to me. I'm living in the moment, and I don't have that gene.
I believe in living life the way that you want to live it every day, and if you do that, you don't really need to have New Year's resolutions.
In the West, we look at art through life. Well, that's one way of living. In the Orient they look at life through art. They even drink their tea without sugar, for the same reason that they don't like a lot of frilly decorations on a painting. I can't stand butter on my bread for the same reason. I'm allergic to goo and rococo.
We are like ignorant shepherds living on a site where great civilizations once flourished. The shepherds play with the fragments that pop up to the surface, having no notion of the beautiful structures of which they were once a part.

Out of grad school, I worked as a tech writer for a while before going into computer coding for a living.
