The bad reviews get to me, believe me.
Merchandise from Wal-Mart has become as ubiquitous as the water supply. Yet, still, the company is rebuked and reviled by anyone claiming a social conscience and is lambasted by legislators as if its bad behavior places it somewhere between investment bankers and the Taliban.
People now live their lives like an open wound to be famous - they do bad things because they're rewarded for it.
L.A. is like an oil rig. It's not pretty. It's awful. The air is bad, the view is bad, the people are bad.
Nobody wakes up in the morning thinking, 'I'm a bad guy.' They think they're the right guy.
I'd feel bad if I had you come into a theater and you leave feeling ripped off.
You learn to rise above a lot of bad things that happen in your life. And you have to keep going.
I think if you're going to be a little bit innovative or risk-taking, sometimes you're going to be wrong, and it's going to look bad. I understand that.
I've actually tried to roast somebody that I don't like, and it doesn't go well. Either they're a bad sport or I'm not as funny as I could be.
Video games are bad for you? That's what they said about rock-n-roll.
With my Roman Catholic upbringing, I have a set of principles that serve me well in good times and bad.
I'm drawn to bad romances.
For Prince William, I focused more on doing a bad impression of a romantic lead than on Prince William himself.
Man, I'm 6 foot 8. I'm gonna be typecast. It's not like I'm gonna be the romantic lead, although that wouldn't be bad.
Well, I don't feel that I've played so many bad guys, and I'm rot really drawn to villains per se. I think a lot of people relate to some of my characters' inner struggles.
Bad criticism recites rote arguments. The shame of rote arguments isn't just that they're cliches, though they are, but that they tend to hide from us why a critic is actually thinking what they're thinking.
Get your butt in a chair and write. If it comes out weak or bad or clunky or ordinary, then accept that this happens to everyone. Everyone. Get it down, get it done, and fix it in the rewrite. Just like everyone from Stephen King to J. K. Rowling to Chuck Palahniuk does.
My agent had warned that, while a fine film would do my profile a world of good, a bad one wouldn't help me at all, and I suspected she was soft-pedalling the latter possibility. The effect of a truly execrable adaptation is worse than neutral. The stink rubs off.
If you wanna get out of a rut bad enough, it'll always happen. It's up to you, though. No one else is ever gonna do it for you.
I don't wish to curse anyone. I just feel bad when women, especially, try to sabotage the image of another woman.
