I’ve always loved comic books, which is why I’ve done films like ‘Hulk’ and ‘The Punishers.’ – Gale Anne Hurd
I’ve seen other comics, with great pleasure, watching their own specials, and I don’t know how or why they do it. – Janeane Garofalo
If there is ‘right to buy’ for council tenants and housing association properties, then why shouldn’t that apply to all tenants? Some landlords are decent, very caring people, but some of them are truly appalling. – Jeremy Corbyn
I can’t see why we can’t toss in a Junior Walker or Wilson Pickett number in every once in a while. – Jose Carreras
On a shelf above my computer are five letters that spell out W-R-I-T-E. Just in case I forget why I’m there. I also have ‘Wonder Woman’ paraphernalia from when I wrote five issues of the comic, and pictures of my husband and kids. – Jodi Picoult
Why something in the public interest such as television news can be fought over, like a chain of hamburger stands, eludes me. – Jimmy Breslin
I’ve never worked as much as I would’ve wanted to, and that’s why I end up doing a lot of stage as well, because stage is a full course meal. – Holly Hunter
Why do we cling to bigotry? Because bigotry, plainly, is convenient. It is a near-effortless way to both elevate one’s stature and make a pity grab in this culture of victims that we have become. – John Ridley
I enjoy having some boundaries to work within. That’s why I generally don’t like alternate tunings and stuff like that. I like the boundaries of regular tunings. – J Mascis
For TV you also get those pre-interviews when researchers ask you what you’re going to say. The pre-interview drives me insane. If they’ve already decided the outcome, why don’t I just hand in an essay? Maybe if we talk we’ll find something out. I’d rather just have an awkward pause. – Jarvis Cocker
Darn the wheel of the world! Why must it continually turn over? Where is the reverse gear? – Jack London
I have no clue why, but maybe sometimes when there’s someone you don’t hear from, it’s the person you want to hear from the most. – Janet Jackson
When you’re accustomed to wealth, you don’t show it, right? That’s why the white kids in school could wear bummy sneakers; it’s almost like, ‘Don’t show wealth – that’s crass.’ – Jay-Z
People who are truly horrible are often the most interesting people in the room. You look at them and just say, ‘Why?’ – Ian Mckellen
If you’ve been in a film that’s seen by millions and millions and millions of people, you’re more likely to be recognized for that than for your theater performances, which were seen by considerably less people. Why would I get upset by that? – Ian Mckellen
If we could honestly promise young couples that we knew how to give them offspring with superior character, why should we assume they would decline? Common sense tells us that if scientists find ways to greatly improve human capabilities, there will no stopping the public from happily seizing them. – James D. Watson
I’ve performed in Auburn Hills, at The Palace, so I haven’t really been in downtown Detroit, but I’ve been able to be here, and I can really see, what the city was. Like, I can feel why Motown started here and how amazing it was. – Jordin Sparks
TV broadcasting is owned, in the sense that governments around the world have asserted power over the airwaves that permeate their territories, deciding who can use what bandwidth and why – and those with licenses then, with exceptions determined by regulators, decide what to broadcast. – Jonathan Zittrain
I never quite understood why Disney hadn’t made a sincere fairy tale since ‘Beauty and the Beast.’ – John Lasseter
I’m constantly tortured, and that’s why I say happiness is irrelevant. Happiness is for children and yuppies. – John Zorn
Why is it the philosopher who is expected to be easier and not some scientist who is even more inaccessible? – Jacques Derrida
An idea can be tested, whereas if you have no idea, nothing can be tested and you don’t understand anything. The molecule that you make when you are getting sunburned or when you eat a lot of food is part of the same molecule that contains an endorphin or an opiate. No one has ever had a hypothesis about why the two are together. – James D. Watson
I think you kind of need to acknowledge that the reason why sequels do well is because people that loved the first one come back. – James Wan
If you can sort out why you feel the way you do then you might be in better shape to meet your maker. – John Lydon
Once you’re a winner, you can give all sorts of reasons why you’re a winner. Of course, you could all those same reasons to explain why a show fails. – James MacArthur
I dish the dirt out and I can take it. But why should my mother and children have to take it? – Jeremy Clarkson
