Growing up, I had only one good pair of shoes. So on rainy school days, my mom would slip plastic bread bags over them to keep them dry. But I was never embarrassed. Because the school bus would be filled with rows and rows of young Iowans with bread bags slipped over their feet.
I've certainly always had a very high regard for Botswana and so I paint a very good picture of the country and I've never pretended to be painting an entirely realistic picture.
I have never left the Tamil film industry and have always maintained that I'm open to good projects. I have not restricted myself to any one industry.
When I'm making songs, I never call them hits. I knew 'Bandz A Make Her Dance' was a good record, but I never knew it was gonna be a hit.
I never could get into The Chambers Brothers. They make good records, but I never could get behind it.
It is generally much more shameful to lose a good reputation than never to have acquired it.
You can never take your reputation back. There really is nothing as powerful as a good reputation.
It's never a good sign when extremism becomes the norm.
A good song never gets old.
I never insisted that I was a good student.
I was a good little boy and a good student. I've never been arrested.
In school, I wasn't a very good student - I was very irresponsible and never did the studying but always liked to get the laugh.
There are some good teachers out there, but the only one who is a genius at diagnosing my swing is my mom. She took up golf late, when she was 39, but in her younger days, she was an amazing athlete. She never read an instruction book or took lessons, but she has a remarkable eye for motion.
I never pay any attention. I'm sure it's not such a good way to be, but I don't really follow market research.
I was never totally into marriage, and I wasn't a very good wife.
I haven't watched a lot of episodes of 'The Good Wife.' I never even saw the show until I signed on, and then I watched seven episodes.
I never wanted to be a celebrity writer. I wanted to be a good writer. I'm still trying to be a good writer. That's what gets me out of bed in the morning.
I never thought of myself as being handsome or good-looking or whatever. I always felt like an outsider.
I grew up on the old EC comic books before the Comics Code in North American and with all sort of good-natured fun. I never had nightmares I think because all of the old horror stuff that I was exposed to was well meaning in a certain sense.
When anybody goes to L.A. from London, there's always this slight sense of, 'What are you doing? Who do you think you are? It's never gonna happen.' It's the classic, good-natured British cynicism.
