Boxing is like chess. You encourage your opponent to make mistakes so you can capitalise on it. People think you get in the ring and see the red mist, but it’s not about aggression. Avoiding getting knocked out is tactical. – Nicola Adams
I just tend to do things to myself that I don’t realize I’m doing. Sometimes I bite my lip so that it splits and hurts, and yet I can’t stop. And sometimes I’d play shows on the last run, I’d scratch my neck while I was singing, and I’d horrified to see these red streaks of blood after. – Fiona Apple
Writing and directing might be a red herring, and really I’m just re-examining what it is to act, to do it well and do it properly. – Damian Lewis
How, possibly, could the police have made the ‘mistake’ of charging the wrong man with the notorious Red Light Bandit crimes? That also is something that is fully revealed in the Pandora’s Box of facts I have prepared. – Caryl Chessman
Red carpets are awful. They’re like a kind of purgatory – you stand there, and there are cameras flashing everywhere. One of my first red carpets was in Cannes for ‘The Great Gatsby,’ and I’d never seen anything like it. – Elizabeth Debicki
I say, if you believe what you read in the comic strips, then you believe that mice run around with little gold buttons on their red pants and drive cars. – Mort Walker
We don’t have a prayer of defeating the Red Threat of our generation without a long boom of almost unprecedented duration. – Mitch Daniels
Like most markets, Da Jing is most alive just after dawn, when the elementary-school children in their uniforms and bright red kerchiefs set off through narrow streets, marking the start of another frenzied day of commerce. – Evan Osnos
This is the thing I’ve learned, after a lot of couch time: There are always red flags. You need to look for those red flags along the way so you don’t continue to make the same mistakes with another person. – Michelle Pfeiffer
Some people like to drive a Ford, not a Ferrari, and some people like to drink out of a red Solo cup, not out of a crystal stem. – Marsha Blackburn
The Red Sox are the local scapegoats. It’s hard enough to play baseball without being the local scapegoat too. – Michael Lewis
With the Red Sox, you have more of a literary interest in it. You know they’re going to lose; you’re just interested in how the plot is going to unfold. – D. B. Sweeney
What’s amazing is that I’m recognized all over the world through ‘Red Dwarf.’ British fans are exceptional, but the American fans are something else. Some of them fly 500 miles to stand in line for three hours, just to meet me, then when they do they collapse. It makes you feel like a rock star! – Craig Charles
Police in Washington D.C. are now using cameras to catch drivers who go through red lights. Many congressmen this week opposed the use of the red light cameras incorrectly assuming they were being used for surveillance at local brothels. – Dennis Miller
If a man sees a woman with red lipstick, he admires her, but often he won’t feel like kissing her. – Monica Bellucci
I like styling girls that don’t normally dress in vintage clothes and don’t normally wear red lipstick; I like seeing those kind of girls restyled in a retro way. – Dita Von Teese
I think that being isolated from the Hollywood world of premieres and red carpet events was probably good for me because I could ease into those at will and by my own choice. But in other aspects, when it comes to fanfare, Hawaii is nuts and in L.A. they’re all so jaded. They don’t care. – Evangeline Lilly
My plan was to land in Red Square, but there were too many people and I thought I’d cause casualties. – Mathias Rust
One thing I can take credit for, along with the rest of show business, is when the red ribbons were out, we cured AIDS. Any advancements that came towards fighting AIDS were not done by scientists or doctors – it was people with little ribbons on their lapels. – Gilbert Gottfried
On the red carpet, one tip is to suck in your cheekbones – apparently it looks better on camera. I don’t know, though; I think a nice smile is best. – David Harewood
A good margarita, a good red wine, I like expensive alcohol, but not a lot of it. I don’t like to throw up. – Denise Richards
My favorite red carpet jewelry is by Alberto Parada, who designed my Oscar jewelry, as it’s modern yet old school at the same time. – Carly Steel
I eat foods such as fish, chicken, fruit and vegetables while avoiding red meat, dairy and wheat. – Martine McCutcheon
I actually imagined ‘Thunderbolts’ as a straight-up comedy book in a lot of ways, like a very dark comedy book, whereas ‘Red Lanterns’ is more of a cosmic saga that has some jokes every once in a while. – Charles Soule
Paris will give bicyclists more rights when it installs 4,300 signs throughout the city, allowing them to barrel though red lights and turn right on red. – Elaine Sciolino
Every job I’ve had since ‘Smallville’ has wanted me to have red hair, so I have to thank ‘Smallville’ for that. But, just the fact that it was so different was appealing to me. As an actor, you want to be able to play a lot of different things. – Cassidy Freeman
