Another very strong image from the first day was giving my initial press conference in the morning - going down and finding out that everything I had said the essence of what I had said was wrong.
We had news this morning of another successful atomic bomb being dropped on Nagasaki. These two heavy blows have fallen in quick succession upon the Japanese and there will be quite a little space before we intend to drop another.
I spent every night until four in the morning on my dissertation until I came to the point when I could not write another word not even the next letter. I went to bed. Eight o'clock the next morning I was up writing again.
I love such mirth as does not make friends ashamed to look upon one another next morning.
Each morning my characters greet me with misty faces willing though chilled to muster for another day's progress through the dazzling quicksand the marsh of blank paper.
What counts in Hollywood is box office. It doesn't really matter what people think of you as an actor because as long as you have been in a movie that has made money you will always get another job.
Any fool can make enough money to survive. It's another thing to keep yourself consistently entertained. It's a lot of work and a lot of fun to make a life.
And I think the more money you put in people's hands the more they will spend. And if they don't spend it they invest it. And investing it is another way of creating jobs. It puts money into mutual funds or other kinds of banks that can go out and make loans and we need to do that.
I have long been one of those tedious people who rails against the coronation of 'student-athletes.' I have heard the argument that big-time athletics bring in loads of money to universities. I don't believe the money goes anywhere other than back into the sports teams but that's another story.
I think there's only one or two films where I've had all the financial support I needed. All the rest I wish I'd had the money to shoot another ten days.
Because people have no thoughts to deal in they deal cards and try and win one another's money. Idiots!
It would be great to do another television show that was a multi-camera because the hours are so wonderful and you can be a good mom at the same time. The problem is there aren't a lot of multi-camera shows that I personally like. My aesthetic is more geared toward single-camera shows.
My mom didn't let me play video games growing up so now I do. Gaming gives me a chance to just let go blow somebody up and fight somebody from another dimension. It's all escapism.
We've all seen the mom who devotes all her time and attention to her child and is so hungry for adult interaction that as soon as she's around another adult she's not paying attention anymore.
It's about getting the kids up and fed getting one to school getting the other down for a nap going to the grocery store picking one up from school getting the other one down for another nap cooking dinner... I live my life at these two extremes. I'm either a full-time stay-at-home mom or a full-time actress.
My mom God rest her soul - she liked nicknames. In the womb she named me Skip. There was another black guy in Piedmont W.Va. and his name was Skip. They called him Big Skip and I was Little Skip.
I told my mom, 'I'm not buying another magazine until I can get past this thought of looking like the girl on the cover'. She said, "Miley, you are the girl on the cover,' and I was, like, 'I know, but I don't feel like that girl every day.' You can't always feel perfect.
Men are able to trust one another knowing the exact degree of dishonesty they are entitled to expect.
We do not want the men of another color for our brothers-in-law but we do want them for our brothers.
When women are depressed they eat or go shopping. Men invade another country. It's a whole different way of thinking.
Men are by nature merely indifferent to one another but women are by nature enemies.
Men are so necessarily mad that not to be mad would amount to another form of madness.
I never yet feared those men who set a place apart in the middle of their cities where they gather to cheat one another and swear oaths which they break.
Civilized society is perpetually menaced with disintegration through this primary hostility of men towards one another.
