If you play a part that’s been done before, on stage for instance, you feel like you’re carrying a torch and staggering under the weight of it for a bit and then passing it on to somebody else. – Samuel West
I don’t need the credits for playing the blues and paying the dues. I’ve already done it. There are some other things to do here – movies and scores and voice-overs. – Taj Mahal
Some of the supporting roles that I’ve done as an actor, I took them because I knew that I would get to watch some of the leading guys in the movies, and also I’d get to work with them. – Thomas Jane
I get noticed for different things I’ve done in different areas of town. If I’m in a rock club, it’ll be Skid Row, if I’m in a mall it’s the ‘Gilmore Girls.’ – Sebastian Bach
We’ve gone further on this album, where we have a Big Band song, kind of a Sinatra-type song; we have a couple songs that have electronic music on them. We’ve got a couple rock songs, maybe a little heavier than what we’ve done. So the title ‘Jekyll & Hyde’ really covers the breadth of the record. – Zac Brown
I do most of my vocals – aside from a couple of little one-shot vocal samples. I record everything into the Saffire with an SM58 then scratch it with loads of plug-ins. I don’t do much vocoding to be honest. All my vocals are usually done with Melodyne and a ton of other plug-ins to make it sound weird. – Skrillex
The nature of the beast is that film is a director’s medium. It’s not a Tracy Letts play, it’s a John Wells film. ‘August: Osage County,’ as a play, is done. Written. On the shelf. It’ll be performed in its entirety for years. – Tracy Letts
When you’re serving at the local level, you have to build strong personal relationships to get things done. – Wendy Davis

Putting the budget ahead of the policy is the wrong way to do it. It’s too often the way it’s done in Washington. – Spencer Abraham
I don’t read reviews until after I’m done with a production, but when I do finally get to them, I’m always sort of floored by what the bad ones say. – Will Chase
The unions and the auto companies have been unable to put a deal together that fundamentally restructures the industry. It needs to get done. The only way it’s really going to get done is in bankruptcy court. They should have done it six months ago they should do it now. – Tim Pawlenty
Many things there be in the scripture, which have a carnal fulfilling, even there where they be spoken or done; and yet have another spiritual signification, to be fulfilled long after in Christ and his kingdom, and yet never known till the thing be done. – William Tyndale
I’ve been involved with Carnegie Hall for the last 13 years, and Chairman for the last six. I feel really good about what we’ve done growing our educational programs there, building a board that has made Carnegie Hall really a world-class institution. – Sanford I. Weill
I have to say that most of the deals I have done initially were badly received, and after a while, people realised that maybe I was not that wrong. – Stefano Pessina
For what the horse does under compulsion, as Simon also observes, is done without understanding; and there is no beauty in it either, any more than if one should whip and spur a dancer. – Xenophon
But the Air Force was sort of a bastard child of the Army, much like the Marines with the Navy. Everything had to be done over by the Army after it had already been done by the Air Corps, a mess. – Stuart Symington

Carter’s done a lot more good since he’s been out of the White House than when he was in it. – Walter Annenberg
I’m not interested in thinking up the name of a band and a logo and all that. Been there, done that, sold a million T-shirts. – Sebastian Bach
CGI is done after the film is done. It’s through the computer. Most of the film is not computer-generated special effects. Most of it is that creature that is in the room with you. – Sanaa Lathan
