My grandmother tended to divide life into ‘nice’ and ‘not so nice.’ Life in America, her apartment, her grandchildren: ‘nice’; life before 1915: ‘not so nice.’ That’s all I heard. – Amy Bloom
The Phil Spector that I would meet has always been a nice, quiet, little guy who’s very serious about his work; obviously you can tell that because each and everything he’s ever done has always been charted. – Ben E. King
I mean to say, this is the book and I really loathe it and I can’t imagine what a nice Jewish boy like me ever, how I ever got into this dreadful trade. – Al Alvarez
You kind of hope as a musician that you get some recognition for what you do, and when you do, it’s nice. It’s a really good feeling. – Alex Clare
I am actually a huge supporter of the Canadian athletes, and they are all really nice people. – Ashton Eaton
Here’s an idea: How about just ‘Americans?’ That has a nice ring to it, if you ask me. Placing undue emphasis on our ‘separateness’ is a step backward. Bring back the melting pot. – Bobby Jindal
You get people coming up to you and asking about movies, especially in Chennai, which is nice. – Amy Jackson
The heptathlon world record is nice, but the decathlon is the event. I think the heptathlon is more like a practice. There is something completely different about the decathlon. – Ashton Eaton

I’m older than I was, and I’m still washed-up, and I haven’t changed my music one iota. It’s just much easier to do this when people are being nice to you. – Ben Folds

It’s nice having your work recognized but having people follow you around is kinda weird. – Alex O’Loughlin
‘Royal Beatings’ was my first story, and it was published in 1977. But I sent all my early stories to ‘The New Yorker’ in the 1950s, and then I stopped sending for a long time and sent only to magazines in Canada. ‘The New Yorker’ sent me nice notes, though – penciled, informal messages. They never signed them. They weren’t terribly encouraging. – Alice Munro
When I get high anxiety, I vomit. My mom was so stressed out. Then I found out I was staying in John Mayer’s old dorm room, and I had a nice roommate. That completely brought me down. I was completely comfortable at Berklee. – Charlie Puth
