And living in a metropolitan area which is ethnically diverse, our lives are very complicated, so our emotional experiences are going to be varied like that.
- Deborah HarryI don`t want to be exploited. That of course, as an actress, is a real challenge, not to be exploited. So I`m just going to keep looking for as many different types of roles as I can find in different genre movies. That`s my goal, my aim. I like doing that. I`ve had a pretty varied career so far."
- Famke Janssen"We are very, very different people and yet somehow we fed off those varied differences and instead of separating us, it has made the whole bond a lot stronger." -on his marriage to Joanne.
- Paul NewmanI just like to keep challenging myself, keep it varied. It`s a craft, and I`m constantly trying to learn and get better at it.
- Clive OwenEverybody gets typecast in movies, but you have to make wise choices. I`d say around 90 percent of movie casting is about the way you look, so you have to fight that. If producers had their way, I`d only be in action films, but I`m interested in a more varied career than that.
- Famke JanssenJohn Wayne was probably the biggest star in the world, yet he retained the qualities of a small boy. He had the enthusiasm for life that would make a high school football star envious. And through it all, Duke never changed. As a man he was exactly the boy he started out. And as a friend ... well, you just wouldn`t want a better one. In his lifetime, Duke stamped AMERICA across the face of the motion picture industry. Few other men, living or dead, have ever portrayed the fine, decent, and generous American qualities as Duke did. He portrayed on screen the values he lived off screen. Gentle - so much so, it would have surprised his critics. Loyal - once your friend, always your friend. Courageous - if you doubt it, remember his fight against cancer, or the way he faced heart surgery. And decent. Above all, Duke was a decent man. He was also far from perfect. He made his mistakes as I have made mine and you have made yours. All in all, I would say they were unintentional. Mistakes of the heart, I would say. Let me say this about the John Wayne I knew. He was an original. He was the statue of his times. All in all, I think it was the man`s integrity that speaks most of him. His principles never varied. Nor did his ideals. Nor did his faith in mankind.
- James StewartIn common with many others in the varied branches of our profession, my academic education is subnormal.
- Loretta Young(When asked if he is afraid to be type-cast as a tough guy after Alien: Resurrection (1997)): I don`t bear any label. I perform very extreme characters, but at the same time men with an enormous goodness. Take for example the Hercules from Cité des enfants perdus, La (1995), One, he is a child in an adult body; One is pure, simple and innocent. My character in "Beauty and the Beast" (1987) had an enormous generosity, far from this world; the Beast was too good to be real. It`s true that I hardly play ordinary people due to my appearance, anyway I am not a captive of any register, I don`t systematically play tough and not very bright people. I congratulate myself for my varied filmography and for being able to do all roles.
- Ron PerlmanIt`s not fair that there aren`t very many juicy or varied roles for women.
- Rosanna ArquetteThe more varied the characters, the better, as far as I`m concerned.
- Tim RothComedy is really not like any other art form in that it`s very specialized and varied in it`s content, but generic in it`s title.
- Joe RoganI asked each one of them to make out with me and their reactions varied from excitable to horrified.
- Rachel PerryI think people are aware of how varied and interesting his life was-always at the center of things-as well as aspects of his decline.
- George PlimptonMy luck at the gambling table was varied; sometimes I was fifty to a hundred dollars ahead, and at other times I had to borrow money from my fellow workmen to settle my room rent and pay for my meals.
- James Weldon JohnsonThe women I admire most in this business are Susan Sarandon, Bette Midler and Winona Ryder. Susan Sarandon because she`s, well, Susan Sarandon. Winona because she`s never compromised herself by showing her body in any of her love scenes, and Bette Midler because she has such a varied life. Her family, her marriage and her career are all priorities.
- Keiko AgenaI don`t really think of Dire Straits as a sound, you know. It. just depends on the song, and the stuff we`re doing is so varied.
- Mark Knopfler(on being typecast) If you look at the careers of people like Anthony Quinn, Cagney, even Tommy Lee Jones, they all were cast as villains. There comes a certain point in your life, in your late 30s, early 40s, when suddenly that can change. Maybe a director sees a glimpse of something else within you along the way. I played comedy in The Goonies, which showed something else was going on. Even when I played the Bond villain in Licence to Kill, there were some people who were rooting for that character ahead of the traditional hero. Now, in Profiler, I get to play Bailey Malone, and I get to show another essence of myself. Stage performances show off multi-varied aspects of an actor, film has always been something else entirely. You always have a prejudice as to what you can and can`t do, but your soul is able to come out more.
- Robert DaviBeing varied is something I do instinctively and naturally. I feel a tremendous sense of accomplishment.
- Sarah BrightmanWhenever I came across something that influenced me, I wanted to be that. So it varied from an astronaut, airhostess, army girl, to truck driver. Once, I wanted to be a nun - my mother wanted me to change schools after that...
- Preity ZintaMy first job was a musical, and I had quite an interesting and varied career in the theatre and television long before the Gold Blend ad came along. I played leads at the National Theatre and all things. The Gold Blend ad gave me a profile which meant that when I wanted to travel to Hollywood, it just gave me a foot in the door - I was a recognizable face.
- Anthony HeadMore varied than any landscape was the landscape in the sky, with islands of gold and silver, peninsulas of apricot and rose against a background of many shades of turquoise and azure.
- Cecil BeatonLegislation can neither be wise nor just which seeks the welfare of a single interest at the expense and to the injury of many and varied interests.
- Andrew JohnsonMy father had a varied ear, from Hank Williams to Ravel.
- Madeleine PeyrouxWatergate is an immensely complicated scandal with a cast of characters as varied as a Tolstoy novel.
- Bob WoodwardThe muscular, athletic type is not representative of the human race, who are varied in their physique.
- Vivienne WestwoodArt to me is an anecdote of the spirit, and the only means of making concrete the purpose of its varied quickness and stillness.
- Mark RothkoBut naturalists are now beginning to look beyond this, and to see that there must be some other principle regulating the infinitely varied forms of animal life.
- AJ NicholsonA rise of wages from this cause will, indeed, be invariably accompanied by a rise in the price of commodities; but in such cases, it will be found that labour and all commodities have not varied in regard to each other, and that the variation has been confined to money.
- Alan SkrainkaI encountered among my comrades the most varied human traits, from frankness to reserve, from goodness, uprightness and kindness, to brutality and baseness.
- Alex KippHow large and varied is the educational bill of fare set before every young gentleman in Great Britain; and to judge by the mental stamina it affords him in most cases, what a waste of good food it is!
- Alfred Lord TennysonI once knew a house rather like The Land of Smiles - an old house occupied by a varied collection of young people, mainly students. However none of these people were true models for the characters in the book, though their way of life may have been.
- Alyce P. Cornyn-SelbyThat the more authoritarian organizations survive and prevail goes generally unnoticed because people focus on the objectives of organizations, which are many and varied, rather than on their structures, which lend to be similar.
- Andre ArteroThere is a lot of opportunity for people with varied interests, ... We`ve had business owners, CEOs '” all kinds of backgrounds. These are people with a lot of talent.
- Andris PiebalgsMany have master`s and doctorate degrees, but because of their illness, they are out of the workforce, ... Now with new medications, many are capable of controlling the illness to the point of being able to function very well and contribute in varied positions that do contribute to the community and are not menial in nature.
- Andy ZweizigThe ocean plankton varied with the ocean temperature over many years. They were highly correlated.
- Art WongTime rushes towards us with its hospital tray of infinitely varied narcotics, even while it is preparing us for its inevitably fatal operation.
