It's like painting the same blank canvas over and over and over and over and over. Once the concept is known, you don't need to see two. And that was in the back of my head, that I was really done artistically with what I had created or pastiched.
Nothing I do is done by popular demand.
Congress can grant a waiver [for General James Mattis ] and has done that once in history.
Younger people - not just older people - holding this basic underlying attitude that's suggested there that women aren't worth much, that they're property, that just about anything can be done with them.
We climbers have much to learn from the training done in conventional sports.
If somebody has done it before, that is enough reason to knock an idea off the table
Actually, bizarrely, in America, I get more appreciation from the odd, unusual stuff I've done, almost because I'm not, if you like, famous in America as I am in England.
In England, I've done a whole bunch of stuff where I just make a complete ass of myself. I've been doing it for 20 years, so I just gravitate toward it anyway. I'd rather do that than do the stuff where I'm supposed to be trying to look cool in some way. It's more interesting to me.
I remember my wife wanted me to go see 'Contagion,' and I was like, 'Oh my God, why would I want to see that movie?' I mean, I'll just have nightmares and it will freak me out. It turned out that I really enjoyed it; I thought it was very well done.
I don't blame any director for wanting to do something more commercial. That's all part of the business. I certainly have done it, as an actor.
I just don't think it's true that people can't do something else after they've done something that seems so permanent.
I'm going to f---ing bury that guy, I have done it before, and I will do it again. I'm going to f---ing kill Google.
I don't think anyone has done a [tablet] product that I see customers wanting.
It is one thing to know what should be done, it is another to do it.
In a huge way, everything that I've done in my life has helped inform my ability to communicate with actors and direct them.
I've felt pressure to produce long fiction for as long as I've been writing fiction. There's just an incredible bias in the publishing industry toward novels and away from short stories. They're seen as D.O.A. in the marketplace, which seems nuts to me, given that various collections done smashingly and deservedly well in economic terms.
What's the most outrageous thing I've ever done? Let's just say I don't think I've done it yet. The most outrageous thing is yet to come.
I know that what I have done I can do again.
I would say that the evocative qualities of music are usually put there in post-production in the reverb. It's really not much about the musicians as the engineering. It's post-production that's being done by the musician at the time.
If he'd done something to harm her, I would annihilate him.
Saving her life was the one acceptable thing I'd done since I met her. The one thing that I was not ashamed of. The one and only thing that made me glad I existed at all. I'd been fighting to keep her alive since the first moment I'd caught her scent.
I have theatre-training, I love doing theatre, I've done Broadway.
It's kind of like when you get married, you kinda go into it wanting to remember everything. And once it's done, you can't remember a single thing.
I love computers. I love writing on them. I love gadgetry. The thing is: I am a slow reader. So, if I am going to get my work done, I read, like, a newspaper and that's it. If I got into websites and the internet, I wouldn't get any work done.
My whole career, I've tried to bounce back and forth between everything, and not get typed out. I've done a pretty good job of not getting typed.
