My family and our neighbors and friends thought of Africa and its Africans as extensions of the stereotyped characters that we saw in movies and on television in films such as 'Tarzan' and in programs such as 'Ramar of the Jungle' and 'Sheena, Queen of the Jungle.'
I help my friends out when they need it. I'm extremely generous.
As I got into high school and after puberty, I was a little more inward. I was a real extrovert when I was little, but I don't know, I just got quieter... With my friends, I was still an extrovert.
I had had an extroverted personality with a lot of friends, but when I lost the weight and grew so tall, I withdrew within myself.
Facebook is inherently viral. There are lots of sites that include a contact importer, and for lots of them it doesn't really make sense. For Facebook it fits so well. It wasn't until a few years in that we started building some tools that made it easier to import friends to the site. That was a huge thing that spiked growth.
You can't socialise without being faceless idiots. More people have Facebook friends than actual friends these days.
You got nothing to lose. You don't lose when you lose fake friends.
Fake friends believe in rumors. Real friends believe in you.
I always say a lot of fake friends are the ones I can't get into a fight with, because if I get into a fight with them, it's over.
I think it's better to have less friends than to have fake friends.
The only sensible ends of literature are, first, the pleasurable toil of writing; second, the gratification of one's family and friends; and lastly, the solid cash.
The last thing family and friends want is for you to spend money on them that you don't have or that you can't really spare.
I am like a kid. I tell my family and friends I'm like a kid.
It says on the back of the Nyquil box, 'May cause drowsiness.' It should say, 'Don't make any plans, OK? Kiss your family and friends good-bye.'
I'd like to get back to my family and friends - believe it or not, I do have some real friends.
When you talk to family and friends, they can't tell you anything from an impartial point of view because they have a vested interest in you.
One of my really good friends in New York is a musician and looks just like Lindsay Buckingham. We always fancied ourselves the nice Fleetwood Mac.
Most of my friends are women - I quite fancied being a woman in a way.
When I was four years old, some friends of my family took me to see 'Fantasia' and I was totally blown away. From that minute on I wanted to be an animator.
I grew up in Minnesota and everyone is so nice there. It is like Fargo. Everyone's so chipper and you make friends just grocery shopping. We kill each other with kindness.
