I don't want everyone to like me, and I don't choose who likes me. You have to give them the choice, give them the option.
The reward for conformity is that everyone likes you but yourself.
Every woman likes her own way, but no woman can endure to see another woman master even over a man who does not concern her.
A massive state and federal effort, the likes of which we've never seen is going to be needed. We can do it for tsunami victims half a world away. We can do it for our own citizens.
I'm a small and normal girl, and stories like mine no one likes to tell. Fortunately so, because I wouldn't like to play myself.
Hollywood likes to label everyone so you're easier to identify.
I love watching the old movies. I love Katharine Hepburn. I just adore her and everything that she stood for. I find it interesting watching the likes of Gene Tierney and those classic movies of the '40s.
Both chronic, long-term poverty and downward mobility from the middle class are in the same category of things that America likes not to think about.
I'm the type of guy that likes to lead by example.
Usually, I'm just pleasing myself and I have very similar tastes I think to an audience, what that core audience really likes.
Every girl likes to be thought of and made to feel special.
Everybody likes a kidder, but nobody lends him money.
People see that I have my own voice, my own opinion, my own likes. The album really reflects that.
The firmest friendship is based on an identity of likes and dislikes.
If I write scripts that nobody likes, I don't think we'll be doing 'True Detective.'
My complaint, as an exile who once loved New York and who likes to return a half-dozen times a year, is not that it plays host to extremes of the human condition: There is grandeur in that, and necessity.
Success is important only to the extent that it puts one in a position to do more things one likes to do.
If we're eating industrially, if we're letting large corporations, fast food chains, cook our food, we're going to have a huge, industrialized, monoculture agriculture because big likes to buy from big. So I realized, wow, how we cook or whether we cook has a huge bearing on what kind of agriculture we're going to have.
I don't know anyone who actually likes the dark or night-time. I don't care how much they say it doesn't bother them. That's why we used to huddle in caves and light fires when the sun went down.
In a relationship where finances are shared, it's important that both people know what's going on. If one spouse likes being the family accountant, it's fine for that person to take the lead, but the other spouse shouldn't be in the dark.
I don't think I'll ever be a person who likes to work out.
My opinion, having done this now for two cycles, is I think the national media really likes me and likes what I have to say. But, at the end of the day, 'He's a Libertarian,' and that denotes some loose screws, maybe.

I work in whatever medium likes me at the moment.
I'm the kind of person who likes to create the environment and mindset - not because I do it deliberately, but because that's how I like to live - where, from catering to makeup to hair to wardrobe, electricians, camera department lighting, sound, you know, it's our movie; we're together, and we have that camaraderie and that closeness.
Actors are exposed in a way that nobody else can understand. They are subject to the likes and dislikes of people their entire life, no matter how successful they are. At the same time, in order to be liked, you have to not be yourself. So it's a very complicated human exercise - an alchemy that I have never understood.
The likes of Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Tommy Hearns were true champions. There were some incredible fights between us, and I was happy to give them all an opportunity to fight me.
Nobody who has even kicked a ball in the street likes losing.
I'd love to see the rushes but it's just not allowed because directors and also a lot of actors feel that if they see their work, and the director likes what they're doing, the actor might try to correct their mistakes.
Nobody likes to hear it, because it's dull, but the reason you win or lose is darn near always the same - pitching.
Dad likes my food, but he probably thinks it's too busy. He is a wonderful cook but only uses three ingredients. My mum rips out my articles and makes my recipes.

While President Bush likes to project an image of strength and courage, the real truth is that in the presence of his large financial contributors, he is a moral coward.
I'd read things, like people criticizing me. But no one likes to read stuff about that, and probably the main thing that was getting to me was me mum's illness.
