Whenever I get an audition to do something that is sci-fi-related, it makes me really happy because I realize that I can continue doing the work that I’m doing and continue meeting people all over the world. It does baffle my management team sometimes, though! – J. August Richards
Kant and Hegel are interesting thinkers. But I am happy to insist that they are also terrible writers. – Alain de Botton
People are easily intimidated when they decorate their home. They think it has to be one way. But there’s no one way. It’s your way, your style. At the end of the day, you have to live there. It’s your cocoon, your nest. You have to be happy in it. – Bryan Batt
Many of Bush’s defenders have praised him for keeping the country safe since Sept. 11, 2001. He deserves that praise, and I’m perfectly happy to defend most of his surveillance, interrogation and counterterrorism policies against his critics. – Bill Kristol
As I saw more and more people buying the images that were happy buyers, and people selling the images that were happy with how the market was pricing them, I started to get the sense this could be the go-to place for businesses to get the images they need. – Jon Oringer
People would say, Can we develop a sitcom around you? and I would say, Not interested. I’m very happy doing standup and writing and taking my kids to school. – Jeff Foxworthy
I never thought about how I didn’t have a cell phone or I’m in 2011. I was just so happy to be able to be a character in the 30s and there are these actresses that I really liked in the 40s, 50s and 60s in American movies that I’ve seen since I was a little girl. But you don’t really think like that when you prepare for a role. – Berenice Bejo
I’m happy being myself, which I’ve never been before. I always hid in other people, or tried to find myself through the characters, or live out their lives, but I didn’t have those things in mine. – Angelina Jolie
Some movies get rushed out right after you make them and I’m not always happy with that. – Aaron Eckhart
With every year that passes, I get further away from my target audience, and while I’ve been happy to think of myself as a father figure to these kids, I’d be a little distressed to be thought of as a grandfather figure. – Anthony Horowitz
In Hollywood, you can’t say anything bad about anybody or everyone is going to attack you. It’s like you always have to put on a happy face, be the phony baloney, and I’m so not that. I never was that; I’ll never be that. That is part of the business that I don’t like. – Chloe Sevigny
I am a late discoverer of ‘Friday Night Lights.’ I cry every episode at least once. I love to cry – happy, emotional tears. I just love it. – Andy Cohen
‘Mud’ was a depository for a little more nostalgia and just a different kind of feeling, a different kind of mood. Something that’s not so dark. Something that does actually have a happy ending and is a little more hopeful. – Jeff Nichols
The success of ‘The Shadow of the Wind’ made me very happy, but it did not change my perspective or the way I was. – Carlos Ruiz Zafon
Building walls isn’t going to work in the long run. Some people are happy with the wall in Israel, but somebody will get a weapon someday and knock it over or something. Walls aren’t the answer between countries, though. – Arlo Guthrie
Once everyone else around you starts to become incredibly comfortable – if anything, quite happy with what you are doing – then I start to settling in and trusting all those choices that I’ve made up to that point. – Josh Lucas
I learned that you should feel when writing, not like Lord Byron on a mountain top, but like child stringing beads in kindergarten, – happy, absorbed and quietly putting one bead on after another. – Brenda Ueland
We must laugh before we are happy, for fear of dying without having laughed at all. – Jean de la Bruyere
I think that in Hollywood, it’s hard because so many people do turn out crazy. I don’t need to go out every night to get attention. I’m happy with the amount that I have. – Amanda Bynes
A woman who is not ready to have a baby making it work is not a happy ending to me. It’s a personal nightmare. – Jenny Slate
I have an office full of product from brands trying to be in videos and an inbox full of songs from artists, but at the end of the day if the artist doesn’t support the brand or it doesn’t make sense for the song, then it will never work. What we do is try to pair them up so that both sides are happy. – Adam Kluger
But I think the guys are very happy to accommodate the people and that’s part of golf in general. – Bernhard Langer
Given a choice between being happy or being efficient and safe, I’ll take efficient and safe. – Bob Buckhorn
One of the questions that I hear over and over and over is, ‘What do we do with all these paintings we do on television?’ Most of these paintings are donated to PBS stations across the country. They auction them off, and they make a happy buck with ’em. – Bob Ross
The suburbs are the American dream, right? Living in a nice house, having a good job, a happy family. – Cheryl Hines
