People still recognize me all the time on the street. The first thing they say when they stop me is, "Where have you been?" The second comment they make is always, "Oh, you`ve grown up." I`m not one of those actors who needs the media spotlight all the time to feel gratified. I`m happy to do one project a year and take the rest of the year off as long as that project is special.
- Macaulay Culkin(on the critical plaudits earned by The Last Picture Show (1971)) I`m very gratified by the reception. It`s gone beyond my wildest dreams. To have your picture compared to Citizen Kane (1941) is incredible; certainly it isn`t true, but it`s nice to have it written.
- Peter BogdanovichI feel so gratified about having finished college. I learned how to articulate myself. It gave me confidence more than anything. And also the ability to analyze the text.
- Maggie GyllenhaalWhat I always try to do in my acting is to communicate with people, to touch them, so I am especially gratified by everyone`s interest in Vertigo.
- Kim NovakThere`s a hell of a lot of horny people out there who are not being gratified in the way they should be.
- Colleen McCulloughThe Room I wrote in 1957, and I was really gratified to find that it stood up. I didn`t have to change a word.
- Harold PinterWe were especially gratified that he brought in (VCU art faculty members) to consult on what the museum needed in its expansion to make it more useful for educational purposes,
- James FarmerWe`re gratified that we`re going forward, ... I think we came to a reasonable agreement with the neighbors about their concerns. A lot of the concerns were legitimate, but some were way out there.
- Jonny MoseleyI`m extremely pleased and gratified. I worked extremely hard.
- Tom BrennanThe EU member states warmly applauded the thinking behind the Viet Nam - EU Masterplan. We are particularly gratified that you have chosen to start this new experiment with us. And we are ready to work with you to make it a success.
- Peter GordonThe selection by WesCorp to protect their servers with PatchPoint underscores the capability of the solution as well as the business benefits to WesCorp. We are gratified that our system is solving a major problem and allowing them to, in turn, provide a consistent level of service to their customers.
- Jeff PalmerPresident Clinton is enormously popular and obviously we are gratified to have the support of people who were and are close to him. Bill Clinton found a path to the White House and did it starting in New Hampshire, and we`d like to emulate that.
- Assemblyman Guy GreggRepublicans are excited about the campaign ahead and know how serious and important this election is. We`re gratified by the support we`re receiving and look forward to a debate on the biggest issues facing this country -- fixing the economy and winning the war on terror.
- Barbara OlshanskyTelling us to obey instinct is like telling us to obey "people." People say different things: so do instincts. Our instincts are at war.... Each instinct, if you listen to it, will claim to be gratified at the expense of the rest....
- C.S. Lewis
