Famous Quotes & Sayings

Michael Koryta

I would say of characters I've created, the one I've felt the most connected to emotionally was Adam Austin from 'The Prophet.' I think it was the connection to the idea that one decision you make innocently enough can have very serious, drastic consequences for someone else's life.

Michael Starke

I think it means the world to Brian. Adam would be honored to pass the torch to Brian.

Joe Sakic

For me, on a personal note, it was really tough to see both Adam and Peter go. I'm really going to miss them.

Leonard Levinson

History is the short trudge from Adam to atom.

Dave Schutter

I thought out of everybody on the team, Adam had the best performance on the weekend. Over the past two weeks since we came back from break, he's been wrestling better each consecutive week. It's about consistency and improving, and he's definitely been doing that over the last couple weeks.

Mike Redwine

I think it took Adam until the second quarter to get comfortable. He may have been a little anxious and trying too hard early, but he is definitely the right guy for this program.

Doug Flutie

I was just disappointed. You know, Adam has been a big part of this team for a number of years and his game-winning kicks, Super Bowl kicks, and all that, so he will be missed by his teammates, but it's just the nature of the business. He will be forever etched in the memories of New England sports fans.

Andy Frye

Our backs are running hard and sharing the responsibility, and we're getting balls around to different players. I still think our go-to-guy is Adam Clark. He's almost healthy, and I think that's helped us, too.

Bobby Byerly

I keep telling Adam he's not our No. 9 guy, he's our second lead-off man. I'm trying to give him confidence.

Shaun Alexander

I went from not knowing who I am -- Batman or Robin? -- to a guy who was healthy enough to play. I got knocked out, but it wasn't about me. It's about us, a team. We're willing to pick up our falling brother.

Robin Lord Taylor

I live in a small apartment. There's only so much Batman memorabilia a guy can hang on to in New York City.

Jim Lee

I like having pairs of characters to play off each other. I love drawing Batman, but he's more fun with Robin. Batman charges ahead, Robin jumps off the walls. It's fun showing that contrast.

Ray Park

I'm a big Batman fan; to be honest, to be a part of any superhero movie would really fulfill all of my childhood fantasies. If I could get beaten up by Batman, and just be part of the franchise, even getting kicked through a window would be great!

Andrew Kreisberg

It's truly an honor to get to write Superman and Batman and Wonder Woman and all those great people, but when you can take something that's not well thought of and make it something that people do think highly of, that's much more gratifying, I think.

Ansel Elgort

I want to play everything. I want to be like Christian Bale: I want to be able to be Batman and then, like, his character in 'The Fighter.' That is what is so impressive about really good actors, that they can be character actors and leading men at the same time.

Lee Bermejo

'Joker' was a violent, dark, and brutal book, so I wanted to do something a little less heavy. I played around with the idea of a children's book, and that eventually became 'Noel.' And I just kept finding these parallels between things I could do with Batman and Charles Dickens' 'A Christmas Carol.'

Kevin Smith

Read the comics, which are probably far better than the film would be if I was involved. Otherwise, my version of Batman would be like him standing around talking for two weeks and not getting anything done. The Bat-A-Rang would never leave the utility belt. It would just be chatting.

David Mazouz

I've always been a huge fan of the Batman universe and Batman, since I was born really. I think the reasoning for that is because he doesn't have a superpower - he has no special ability. He's just a regular person, a regular human.

Jeff Kinney

Kids and adults have a difference of opinion when it comes to what constitutes legitimate reading. Adults often push books that they loved as children, which, ironically, were often books that their parents weren't particularly keen on.

Stephen Jones

Kid books can get cute and a-d-o-r-a-b-l-e. Garfield says cute rots the intellect. Don't forget the name of the cat! You pick up cats the wrong way and they stop being adorable...they become Scratch.

James Patterson

Kids say the No. 1 reason they don't read more is that they can't find books they like. Freedom of choice is a key to getting them motivated and excited.

Japanese Proverb

Knowledge without wisdom is a load of books on the back an ass

Spike Jonze

Kids are so fiercely opinionated, that if they love the Harry Potter books and they go see the movie, they'll be the first to say, 'That was wrong! They didn't get that right!' They're storytellers themselves. They're critics. They're going to have the critical opinion.

Marshal Cohen

Kids are not interested in taking their summer vacation to start thinking about back-to-school wardrobes, supplies and book bags.

William Rehnquist

I wrote this book for a sense of personal satisfaction. Just like taking a good photograph or painting a picture or playing a good golf game or something, it's the thing in itself that justifies it.

Charles Sims

I think it's a big victory for Rosie. Who doesn't?, ... Rosie didn't want this fight. She wouldn't have brought this lawsuit if they didn't sue her (first). She just wanted to show that the claims were unjustified.

Robert Lewis

He led one public life ... but there was a second side, a hidden side to Henry J. Lyons, a side that caused him to be brought here to this seat,

Art Hogan

(Greenspan's) a proponent of what productivity gains have brought to this new economy, ... Of all the things he says, the least hawkish is when he talks about productivity and the new economy. In terms of Wall Street's reaction, I wouldn't say we could garner anything but a positive feeling.

Charlene Tilton

JR was a 1-dimensional, evil character. JR was multi-dimensional, and Larry Hagman is probably one of the greatest actors that we have. Then, you go back and look at 'I Dream of Jeannie' - I mean, he's a comic genius, as well. So, I think they should give him an honorary Emmy Award.

Gale Anne Hurd

I also love the zombie genre, my zombie fandom going way back to 'Night of the Living Dead.' And 'The Walking Dead' is truly the ultimate representation of that sensibility in the comic book genre.

Melissa Marr

Marc Guggenheim

I actually feel like comic book movies need to be better than your average movie.

Sandra Bernhard

I don't consider myself a comic but a performer. A comic tells bad jokes.

Damon Lindelof

In television, if I write that Matthew Fox flies up around the island so he can see how big it is, we have to actually shoot that. In a comic book, you write it, somebody draws it and there it is. No budget, no actors. That frees you up to really do some outside-the-box storytelling.

Chris Wooding

I like writing comic pages, discovering the rhythm of the panels, learning how much you can and can't express. It's good to stretch myself as a writer instead of always doing prose work; I write screenplays for the same reason.

Matt Ryan

I'm constantly trying to mine the DNA of John Constantine and stay true to that character in the comic books.

I thinking of people like Phil Ramone or George Martin,

James Patterson

Kids don't read as much as you'd like them to, just in terms of seeing the world from different perspectives. I mean, that's the great thing about books, still. Here's television, here are the movies, and it's pretty limited in terms of the perspectives.

Mary Carskadon

Kids are too sleepy to learn well. They're too sleepy to be happy. And they're at great risk for such things as traffic accidents.

Jim Schmitz

Jake Wade did just such a great job throwing strikes, going right at them. He pitched six quality innings. It was just nice to see him come out like that.

Alden Ehrenreich

I would say that it's mainly about the director. It's a hard quality to find, but I always know whether I want to do something or not. The character is important to me, as is getting to work with people that I feel like I can learn from and make a great movie with.

Mark Heiderscheid

John Day does a great job in the first half to keep us in it. There's got to be six or seven opportunities they get and he comes up big on saves.

Joseph Campbell

You should never meet your heroes. Paul Newman... I was so excited about meeting him, but he turned up in shell suit bottoms, slippers, and a jumper. He was just so worn out and old, he wanted to go home.

Johnny Depp

Hunter meant a lot to me. He was another hero and someone that I got to know very well because I played him in 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.' We got very, very close,
