I’m not meant to run around trees. I can’t throw my arms in the air and sing, I find that boring and irritating. Sweet romcoms are not my cup of tea. The film has to be a little twisted and quirky. – Emraan Hashmi
If I didn’t write sex scenes, all my characters would head to the kitchen and make cups of tea. – Michael Winter
The rest of my family are obsessed by ‘The X Factor:’ I’m intrigued by it, although its musical values are far away from mine, like a cup of tea with 400 lumps of sugar in it. There’s something very strange about Simon Cowell’s lips, isn’t there? – Charles Hazlewood
It would be inaccurate to say the Tea Partiers are racists. What they are, in truth, are narcissists. – Matt Taibbi
It is not an overstatement to say that Obamacare was the single most important catalyst leading to the tea party movement. – David Limbaugh
‘Johnny Tremain,’ Paul Revere’s Ride, today’s Tea Partiers – you have to tune all that out to get at the real story. – Nathaniel Philbrick
I bought a year’s production of flax from a single field owned by a Dutch producer. That’s 10,000 kilograms of flax, enough to enable industrial level production. Now, I’m weaving it into tablecloths, tea towels, and other items at the Textile Museum in Tilburg. I’m producing hundreds of grown-up products! – Christien Meindertsma
Turkey tail mushrooms have been used to treat various maladies for hundreds of years in Asia, Europe, and by indigenous peoples in North America. Records of turkey tail brewed as medicinal tea date from the early 15th century, during the Ming Dynasty in China. – Paul Stamets
An office boy in London was the lowest of the low. The office boy was the tea boy. He would be the dog’s body: It means someone who would do anything at all. I was quite prepared for that and enjoyed it. – George Carey
First of all, do I think there’s some racists in the Tea Party? Yeah. I’m an ordained United Methodist pastor; there’s some racists in the Methodist church. I don’t know if there’s a body that does not have some racists in it. – Emanuel Cleaver
The Occupy movement needs an organizing principle, and – just as the Tea Party did – it needs some actual measures of success. Choose one candidate whose agenda is squarely within that of the movement and make his or her electoral success a focal point. – Eliot Spitzer
My first-night jitters are so bad, I can’t even hold a tea cup, but once I am over that, I get really into it. – Neve McIntosh
I don’t think I’m very fashionable. I drink a fair amount of Barry’s Tea, from Cork – but might that be fashionable? I don’t know. – Ciaran Hinds
My biographer said that my parties reminded them of a vicarage tea party, with sex thrown in. – Cynthia Payne
I was fairly solitary. I didn’t like structured learning. People didn’t seem to be my cup of tea. – Dan Farmer
Let me tell you what the Tea Party stands for. It stands for the fact that we are taxed enough already. – Michele Bachmann
Part of why the Tea Party so deeply threatened the elite media is the tea party looked around and suddenly realized, there are more of us than there are of them. – Newt Gingrich
I do hold very strongly that tea is better in England. There’s something in the milk. They must have special cows. – Gail Carriger
Though rom-coms aren’t necessarily my cup of tea, I was a huge fan of ‘Notting Hill.’ – Domhnall Gleeson
I would make the tea on a Daniel Day-Lewis set just to observe how he crafts roles like he did in ‘My Left Foot.’ That was the equivalent of seeing Haley’s Comet for me. I just couldn’t understand how that was possible. – David Oyelowo
All previous populist movements were demanding things from governments, whereas the Tea Party is saying, ‘Give us less, go away.’ That’s heartening to see. – P. J. O’Rourke
Let me tell you about those convents. All that crap about extending the pinkie finger while sipping tea is a myth. Convent schools are breeding grounds for great broads and occasionally one-of-the-boys. Convent schools teach you to play against everything, which is what I’m still doing. – Elaine Stritch
Marco Rubio is interesting because he checks so many boxes when you think about what a Republican nominee needs. He brings Florida, he’s young, he’s Hispanic, the Tea Party likes him. But that said, he’s got issues, actually surprisingly, ironically, with Mexican-American voters. – Mark McKinnon
When one kicks over a tea table and smashes everything but the sugar bowl, one may as well pick that up and drop it on the bricks, don’t you think? – Margery Allingham
People are familiar with ‘the stick’ of the Tea Party… challenging incumbents, flooding the phone lines. What they’re not so much familiar with, and what I want to expand, is ‘the carrot.’ So when a Mitch McConnell, or when a Republican caucus stands firm… we have to reward them. – Niger Innis
Those who use tobacco, tea and coffee should lay these idols aside, and put their cost into the treasury of the Lord. – Ellen G. White
I know within my organization, within the grassroots of my organization of the Tea Party movement generally, there’s going to be a big drive for impeaching Obama. I don’t know if that’s the right move… We need to play our cards very carefully and beware of the mouse trap that Obama might be trying to set for us. – Niger Innis
I did B com but realised that it was not my cup of tea. I was always fascinated by animation, and after I completed my course, I wanted to go abroad and pursue it. I used to sketch a lot and was rather serious about it. But all this was until I joined films. – Emraan Hashmi
I always wanted to host a show, throw whipped-cream pies. Theater is not my cup of tea. – Doug Davidson
Radicalism is as British as tea and cakes, as much a part of our make-up as monarchy and football. It will never have its own jubilees, palaces or honours system. – Geoff Mulgan
