M. J. Rose

I have a feeling he felt Jon Voight had run away with the film, which he didn’t, though he was brilliant in it, in a much less easy part. I just don’t know what had got into him, but something had.

Jolene Blalock

The house was big enough for my brother and me to have firecracker wars at one end and leave Mom and Dad undisturbed at the other.

Omari Hardwick

I’m much more about the emotion that a photograph provokes out of you and less about how technically brilliant it is.

Nigel Barker

Ronald Reagan knew audiences. It was a key element of his political genius.

Rick Perlstein

When I was in high school I saw Steven Wright, a brilliant one-liner comedian, and I thought: ‘That’s what I should do; I should write one-liners.’ And I did. My first album is mostly one-liners.

Anyone can replicate a product. There are lots of brilliant minds out there that know how to code, but there’s unique DNA to a brand. You cannot have a brand without people. That is the most important asset you will ever have.

Whitney Wolfe Herd

‘Zoolander.’ Yeah, I mean, I love Ben Stiller; he’s just a brilliant guy. And I love Will Ferrell in it, too. His character, to me, is just insane, and he made such huge choices, and he’s such a weirdo!

Jane Lynch

You look at ‘Survivor’s Remorse.’ Or ‘Blackish.’ Or Issa Rae’s brilliant, funny ‘Insecure,’ which started out on YouTube but is now on HBO. And you see multifaceted representations of the African-American experience. It’s insanely exciting.

Teyonah Parris

My favorite lesbian romance of all time is the 1999 movie ‘But I’m a Cheerleader,’ starring Natasha Lyonne and Clea DuVall. RuPaul is also in it; so is the brilliant Melanie Lynskey.

Jamie Dornan

Some of the most brilliant things that someone might do could happen in three minutes because it’s something that just occurs to them. And then, there’s the example of really chipping away at something to create something great. I don’t believe that one is more reliable than the other.

Joe Perry

Ian McDiarmid

‘The Secret Agent’ remains the most brilliant novelistic study of terrorism as viewed from the blood-spattered outside. But ‘Under Western Eyes’ dares to leap inside – not only into the terrorist mind, but also into the troubled zone that divides West from East, ‘the autocracy in mystic vestments.’

Tom Reiss

There’s a fine line between what would characterize you as a troglodyte and what would characterize you as a brilliant, avant-garde, forward-thinking genius. There’s some middle ground.

Jared Harris

My mom always had a softer spot for boys, as a lot of Irish women do. If you were a girl, you’d have to sing or wear a pretty dress. But boys could just sit there and be brilliant for sitting there and being boys. It makes you that little bit more forward. Pushy. I was singing, always.

Dolores O’Riordan

Filming in London is brilliant.

Nicola Walker

R.E.M.’s ‘Automatic for the People’ – that’s probably one of my favourite records – Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ – that’s some record – Crowded House’s ‘Together Alone’ – that’s brilliant, fantastic record.

Adam Sandler in ‘Punch-Drunk Love’ is brilliant. Brilliant, brilliant.

Bennett Miller

Ronaldo is brilliant, Messi more my kind of player. He sees the game so clearly. He can score, create; he’s the complete player – the best ever, probably.

Dimitar Berbatov

The prescience of the founding fathers continues to astonish me. They were freedom fighters. They made America. They gave us this magical country. They also were slaveowners – which is confusing to their legacy. How could such brilliant men have only secured freedom for themselves, but not their wives or their slaves?

Andy Dunn

I played at the Sainte Maxime Beach Soccer Tournament, which was brilliant fun as usual.

David Ginola

Living in N.Y.C. has truly awakened me to the New York elite and their penchant for the city’s self-described brilliant public transit system. I think it sucks… just like public transit always does.

The duty of a toastmaster is to be so dull that the succeeding speakers will appear brilliant by contrast.

Clarence Budington Kelland

In our culture, good looks are so important, and today he’d head straight for a plastic surgeon, but in Cyrano’s time, the nose was who he was, and it didn’t matter that he was a brilliant poet, a brilliant swordsman, a brilliant man. His nose defined him.

Douglas Hodge

I’m not a very big fan of ‘Slumdog Millionaire.’ I think it’s visually brilliant. But I have problems with the story line. I find the storyline unconvincing.

Salman Rushdie

Frost isn’t exactly despised but not enough people have worked out what a brilliant poet he was.

Paul Muldoon

Anthony Powell taught me to write; he has such brilliant control of the mechanics of the novel.

Alan Furst

Why the fairy tale of Willie Mays making a brilliant World Series catch, and then dashing off to play stickball in the street with his teenage pals. That’s baseball. So is the husky voice of a doomed Lou Gehrig saying, ‘I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of this earth.’

Ernie Harwell

I love working in television, and I’ve been thrilled to be a part of so many wonderful shows. I worked with Lady Gaga on ‘Gossip Girl,’ and the brilliant Felicity Huffman on ‘Desperate Housewives,’ but I think my favorite TV job so far was the pilot I shot for the CW Network this year called ‘Joey Dakota.’

Erich Bergen

When I wrote ‘Noughts and Crosses’, I was halfway through it when I realised this was very like ‘Romeo and Juliet’… as long as you make it your own, and put your own spin on it, I think it’s brilliant to use other great work to find your own voice.

Malorie Blackman

I don’t really get star-struck, but I do get talent struck. If I meet somebody that I think is just wildly talented and brilliant, that’s when I start getting nervous.

Kate Bosworth

When it comes to work, I’m not competitive at all. Having Cara as my baby, I had to learn quite quickly that I couldn’t be competitive because I had a sister who meant more to me. And I knew she was going to be brilliant, so I had to become very aware of not comparing.

Poppy Delevingne

Well, for the reasons I mention above, although I am not sure the live shows were really so brilliant – but nobody could hear much so perhaps it did not matter! It was certainly a very exciting time for us all.

Peter Asher

There are certain people who have become better artists, but they’re brilliant at marketing. I think someone who’s been phenomenal like that is Madonna.

Michael Bolton

I try to do a variety of physical activities. I spin, take classes at Barry’s Boot Camp, go to the gym, use home DVD’s of ChaLEAN Extreme workouts, which I think are brilliant, and I run around after my three girls. Also, let’s be honest. The amount of laundry I do is an exercise in and of itself!

Alicia Coppola

‘What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger’ not only applies to the deeply personal subject matter of ‘To the Bone’ but to simply getting a film about people with eating disorders made. Without the brilliant Julie Lynn, Bonnie Curtis, and Karina Miller producing, there’s no way this project would be coming to fruition.

Marti Noxon

‘Mean Girls’ stands the test of time as one of the greatest comedies ever produced. I’ve seen it way too many times, and I just think it’s the most brilliant thing ever written. I love it so much.

Kate McKinnon

I was impressed by Hendrix. His attitude was brilliant. Even the way he walked was amazing.

I can’t begin to tell you what a pleasure it was to work with Vikram. He is such a brilliant actor and so hassle-free.

Abhimanyu Singh

All my kids are brilliant.

Maye Musk

David Frum, every now and again, comes up with something pretty darn brilliant.

David Brinkley was an icon of modern broadcast journalism, a brilliant writer who could say in a few words what the country needed to hear during times of crisis, tragedy and triumph.

Tom Brokaw

I used Coldplay’s mixer, Michael H. Brauer, on ‘Roadsinger’; he’s brilliant. He won a Grammy for their record.

Cat Stevens

I’m into really terrible, trashy American horror films. I think the ‘Final Destination’ ‘sinquology’, to phrase it, is brilliant! It’s un-toppable in terms of how incredible it is.

Dan Smith

Looking back, I don’t feel that I was the most brilliant mother. I was always very good at giving my children the right food, but it was one of my regrets in life that I didn’t spend more time listening to them or playing with them.

Mary Berry

To be perfectly truthful, I was not a very brilliant student, even at chemistry school.

Yves Chauvin

Building the right product requires systematically and relentlessly testing that vision to discover which elements of it are brilliant, and which are crazy.

Eric Ries

Acting is a tough, difficult job with long unsociable hours, although it can be a brilliant job, too. I don’t want to complain too much, as nurses, farmers and teachers are out working long hours.

Rhys Ifans

From space, the earth appears predominantly blue; the clouds are brilliant white. Surprisingly, you don’t see much green, although Ireland looks green, and so do Scandinavia and New Zealand. The deserts are brick red and really stand out.

Helen Sharman

When you’re playing such brilliant music every day, then the last thing you ever want to do is try to write something of your own that’s crude and not as good.

Regina Spektor

The friendship of Shostakovich cast a brilliant light over my whole life and whose spiritual qualities captured my soul once and for all time.

Galina Vishnevskaya

It’s brilliant to be compared with such a player as Rio Ferdinand.

Jack Rodwell

There’s some belting hymns. Brilliant hymns. When I was an altar boy the hymns were great.

Peter Kay

Immersing myself in Shakespeare’s plays, reading them closely under the guidance of a brilliant, plain-spoken professor changed my life: It opened up the great questions; it put my petty problems into perspective. It got me out of bed in the mornings and kept me in the library late into the night.

Jhumpa Lahiri

I hope it’s always going to be a mix between theatre, film and radio. I’ve been very lucky living in London that you can do all that – in New York and L.A., there’s more of a structure for film in L.A. and theatre in New York. In London, our industry is smaller, but it produces brilliant work all in one place.

Samuel Barnett

Putting aside the growing threat from Islamic jihadist terrorism, most of America’s problems are home grown. So when I say overthrow the establishment to fix the economy, and the brilliant businessman Wilbur Ross says we need radical new approaches to government, we’re talking two sides of the same coin.

Lawrence Kudlow

I think Google’s a brilliant company, filled with brilliant people who have done brilliant things.

Jason Calacanis

I am truly obsessed with Lena Dunham. I find everything about her unique and refreshing. She is a brilliant, hilarious and honest writer who is not afraid to make her audience uncomfortable.

Spencer Kayden

If you are creative enough to select the ideal vocation, you can win, win big time. The really brilliant millionaires are those who selected a vocation that they love, one that has few competitors but generates high profits.

Thomas J. Stanley

A successful entrepreneur is one who recognizes her blind spots. You may be the world’s best engineer, but you probably have never run a 10-person sales force. You may be a brilliant marketer, but how do you structure a cap table?

Jay Samit

The World Cup needs a brilliant Brazilian team.

Alan Hansen

I’m often asked how I write books, but I don’t think my approach is suitable for everyone. If I walked into a creative writing class, all I could say to them was ‘I tend to make it up as I go along.’ I’m not sure that’s brilliant advice.

Ian Rankin

I think I have had so much blessing – I’ve had my brother, who was brilliant – I think my family came closest to making a genius when they made my brother – Bailey was just all of that. He loved me.

Maya Angelou

Maybe you’ve decided you’re not a genius, that you’re not brilliant, that you’re not prosperous, that you’re not wonderful, that you’re not lovable. Well, you know what? You’re both: you’re unlovable and you are lovable. And they both need equal time.

Debbie Ford

Artists need support, time and money to develop their ideas, and if people rip stuff off, you don’t have to be that brilliant to figure out that you’re ultimately going to affect the end product.

John Polson

I actually feel most at home when I find people who make me feel really dumb, who are brilliant at their particular things. And then I gather these people, put them in a room, and watch incredible things come out of it.

Mick Ebeling

I always thought Johnny Carson was just brilliant, and I used to watch him and all the comics that would be on the show every night – and I’d dream about it being me.

Steven Wright

You will find in me a middle aged man with a career behind me sufficiently brilliant to enable me to talk about many things interestingly; and I am not an unkindly soul, I believe.

George A. Moore

M.I.T. has a reputation for turning out Dilberts. They may be brilliant in what they do, but no one can understand what they say.

Steven Pinker

I’m obsessed with Maggie Smith – the way that she can be the most brilliant actress in every single situation and then do Harry Potter, and still make me cry while she’s casting spells with a wand?

Frankie Grande

At Moscow’s Bolshoi Ballet Academy, I studied under a brilliant and fiery teacher. This tiny, stuttering old man flew into a rage if his students’ white socks failed to reach mid-calf level. Nor could he tolerate floppy hair. We wore hairnets to class – an athletic brigade of short order cooks.

Sascha Radetsky

I actually went to an Oasis concert. I thought they were a brilliant songwriting band.

Tom Stoppard

As an actor, I felt I couldn’t compete. I wasn’t as cute as the leading man; I wasn’t as brilliant as Robin Williams.

Phil Hartman

What a thrill it was to play opposite Maurice Evans in this brilliant, dazzling musical, based on the life of two of the greatest personalities in stage history.

Dinah Sheridan

In theatre, I loved doing ‘2nd May 1997’ at the Bush. Jack Thorne is a brilliant writer, and it was really exciting and felt new and different for me.

Hugh Skinner

It’s amazing that you can listen to any song and you can always tell when there’s some substance beneath it and when there isn’t. Even if it’s poetically written and technically brilliant, I’d rather hear something that’s all over the place but has some soul to it.

Teddy Thompson

There are many brilliant actors, including our own Dilip Kumar, but Robert de Niro is something else.

Anupam Kher

‘The 24 Hour Plays’ is a quite brilliant, exhilarating event for everyone concerned.

Kevin Spacey

My songwriting process is painful. Songwriting is brilliant. It’s a load of fun – when it works. It’s really difficult as well.

James Bay

Phil Hartman was brilliant, and Dave Foley is a really funny guy. Phil Hartman was actually even funnier offstage than he was onstage because he would say nasty things. Dave Foley’s very funny, very witty guy, very quick.

Joe Rogan

I’d always try to get a C, maybe a B. Other girls would trot off a brilliant essay and go off to Oxford; I’d think: ‘Where is the justice?’ I took A-levels in English, history and theatre studies and got three Bs.

Romola Garai

Louise Frogley is a brilliant designer. I always find her wardrobe fittings really informative and creative. Together, you kick images and ideas around.

Cate Blanchett

If I look to any company as a model, it’s Apple. They’re a brilliant design company working to create a lifestyle.

Angela Ahrendts

If you come away from a show thinking of an image, that’s as good as remembering a joke. A lot of those shows, like ‘The Office,’ they are brilliant, but they’re not visually interesting.

Julian Barratt

It’s almost as if Putin is brilliant, really – he’s outfoxing Obama all the time.

Tina Brown

I’m very fortunate in that my parents are artists. My mom is a brilliant poet… She still is a great visual artist. My dad is a jazz drummer… I’ve been very fortunate in that I’ve had parents who supported and encouraged me and haven’t really questioned what I’m doing or asked me to question it.

Ari Aster

I think I was so successful, not because I was brilliant, but because I was so young. I had no fear of consequences.

Frank Abagnale

Towards the end of February 1928, I took the decision of using brilliant monochromatic illumination obtained by the aid of the commercially available mercury arcs sealed in quartz tubes.

C. V. Raman

I can only speak highly of my time at Norwich. It was brilliant for me. I loved it there, and I think the fans loved me as well. We had a great relationship.

James Maddison

I love the song ‘Picasso Baby,’ and I think the performance art piece was brilliant. I love that fact that Jay Z is continuing to raise the bar on hip hop.

Adrian Younge

I have years of saying ideas that are not listened to. Then, weeks after, of producers finding out that I was right when some other guy comes in and says it. Sometimes I just tell my idea to my editor or to some other guy with maybe gray hair to share it, and then it’s brilliant!

Patricia Riggen

Coldplay fans are the best in the world. If you like Coldplay then you’re obviously very intelligent and good looking and all-around brilliant.

Chris Martin

I’ve been lucky that I’ve performed with a lot of the classical people I’ve wanted to work with so I’d like to do something that people didn’t see coming. Like Madonna, or being Welsh – the Tom Jones thing. Or somebody suggested N-Dubz – that would be brilliant!

Katherine Jenkins

The best of American television is thought-provoking, original, brilliant, exciting – from ‘The Sopranos’ on, whether it’s ‘The Wire’ or ‘Breaking Bad’ or ‘House of Cards,’ they’re fantastic pieces of art.

Martin Freeman

I love Amy Winehouse. I’m obsessed with her, I think she’s brilliant. And Ed Sheeran is just my all-time fave.

Millie Bobby Brown

Tony Blair is a brilliant politician. Unfortunately, his legacy is entwined with George W. Bush because of Iraq.

Noel Gallagher

The suicide bomber’s imagination leads him to believe in a brilliant act of heroism, when in fact he is simply blowing himself up pointlessly and taking other people’s lives.

Salman Rushdie

I never wanted to write. I just wrote letters home from a kibbutz in Israel to reassure my parents that I was still alive and well fed and having a great time. They thought these letters were brilliant and sent them to a newspaper. So I became a writer by accident.

Maeve Binchy

It’s a brilliant place to be. It’s rewarding. Gardens are so rewarding.

Ainsley Harriott

I think why people relate to ‘Star Wars’ is George Lucas is so brilliant at telling these stories that we relate to, but in such a fantastic environment with fantastic characters and things you want to believe in this story.

Dave Filoni

‘Powers of Persuasion: The Story of British Advertising’ by Winston Fletcher – the impression you get from reading this book, which covers post-war advertising until the present, is of a chaotic, self-serving, occasionally brilliant but ultimately shallow business.

Justin Cartwright

People wonder why first-time directors can make a brilliant picture, then suck on the second one. It’s because they’re a little terrified the first time. So they listen to all the experts around them.

James Caan

The Constitution remains brilliant in its overall design and sound with respect to the Bill of Rights and the separation of powers. But there are numerous archaic provisions that inhibit constructive change and adaptation. These constitutional bits affect the daily life of the republic and every citizen in it.

Larry J. Sabato

I don’t think any of my teachers know much about football. Pretty much every teacher I have is foreign, and UCLA’s a brilliant mix of minds from all over the world.

Josh Rosen

You don’t have to be a brilliant historian to know that in Europe, messing with countries’ borders, messing with their self-determination, their ability to choose their own futures, this is extremely dangerous, and that’s why I think it is important to stand up to Putin.

David Cameron

Sally Gardner must drive her publishers to distraction: no sooner have they worked out how to market one brilliant book than she delivers another that is just as brilliant but totally different.

Tony Bradman

Some directors were brilliant in the silent era but never felt at home in sound. It’s like a sculptor being forced to take up painting.

Kevin Brownlow

Poe had this curious kind of alchemical courage, where he took all the terrible things and terrors that happened in his life, all this shame and fear and pain, and turned them into great works of art. He was a complex, brilliant person who was just wired too tight.

John Cusack

You want to know why Barbra Streisand is so difficult? Because she’s brilliant. She’s a brilliant entertainer, she’s a brilliant lady, and she’s a wonderful human being, and the community doesn’t like it.

Jerry Lewis

What America demands in her black champions is a brilliant, powerful body and a dull, bestial mind.

Eldridge Cleaver

As brilliant an individual that Michael Jordan was, he was not successful until he got with a good team unit.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

I’m brilliant at cooking my stepmother’s scrambled egg recipe. The secret is to put eggs, butter, milk, and seasoning together in the saucepan, and to keep stirring with a wooden spoon under a low heat until the preferred consistency is reached.

Ian Mckellen

In this age, I don’t care how tactically or operationally brilliant you are: if you cannot create harmony – even vicious harmony – on the battlefield based on trust across service lines, across coalition and national lines, and across civilian/military lines, you need to go home, because your leadership is obsolete.

Jim Mattis

The ‘Daughter of the Regiment’ that I did in Boston was vintage Sarah Caldwell, which is to say it was brilliant. Before my career was over, I’m sure I sang the role of Marie at least a hundred times, often in productions that cost a fortune, but none touched hers.

Beverly Sills

My husband is the most brilliant father on the planet.

Angie Harmon

Drama school can’t make you a brilliant actor, but you can do stuff for three years – you’re not going to be fired. You should just go for it all, even the stuff you think is codswallop.

Ewan McGregor

It’s a bloody shame that all the video stores have gone, I’ll tell you. Everything’s so mechanical now. It’s all so if-you-liked-this-then-you’ll-like-this. There’s no picking something out, or finding some brilliant person to open up new worlds for you.

Alexandra Cassavetes

My father was a very special human being. He was brilliant in academics, sports and the arts. He wrote, performed and directed plays in English and Hindi/Urdu at his regiment.

Ajay Mehta

I wish I was a bit shorter, as I think shorter people have better walks. Freddie Fox, the actor, is shorter than me and has an amazing gait; and Tom Cruise has a brilliant run. I’m just gangly.

Jack Whitehall

I like the dueling club scene, where Daniel and I fight with our wands. I thought it was a brilliant scene to shoot. I think the end product looked really good.

Tom Felton

I have more faith in doing something creative for a cable station or something like Yahoo or Google or Amazon. What Netflix did with ‘House of Cards’ and David Fincher was brilliant. That is inspiring to me. I think there is more chance for creativity in animation, it just hasn’t happened there yet.

Henry Selick

Peter Capaldi is such a brilliant actor, and his Doctor is such a wacky and wonderful character, I can’t wait to see what adventures are in store for him and Bill throughout time and space.

Pearl Mackie

William Shakespeare was a brilliant writer and he only wrote the truth. So, if I don’t believe it, I have to work really hard to see what that truth is so that I do; that’s the only way I can make it believable for the audience.

Condola Rashad

I think Russell Crowe is a brilliant actor.

Rebel Wilson

There are just so many brilliant voices out there. I’m not the funniest person out there, I’m not the best interviewer. I’m not the best at anything, but I really just am a big fan of everyone. I’m really driven by trying to make sure that representation is out there.

Phoebe Robinson

Without a trace of irony I can say I have been blessed with brilliant enemies. I owe them a great debt, because they redoubled my energies and drove me in new directions.

E. O. Wilson

Whitney Wolfe Herd

Dating apps are brilliant for expanding your actual social network, which leads you to meet other people.

Joanna Coles

When you’re still, and some actors are really brilliant at that, you bring a kind of energy to you as opposed to sending the energy out. There are some actors, like Gary Cooper or Kevin Spacey, that are absolutely brilliant – Gene Hackman is another – at being and allowing the audience to just do the work.

Gabriel Byrne

It still hasn’t sunk in that I’m going to be in Coronation Street. Everything about the role is brilliant and I’m working with some great people.

Richard Fleeshman

Getting to work with Edie Falco and watching her be a quiet presence – but a very powerful presence – and so brilliant and free? That was the first person I saw where I was like, ‘I want to emulate that.’

Betty Gilpin

No one had ever educated me on mental health. I really didn’t understand why I would be feeling high on life, and everything was brilliant, and then suddenly I would be crashing into a deep hole.

Adwoa Aboah

Famous people I’ve interviewed – powerful people, brilliant people, people whom you look at and think, ‘Seriously, do you not have pores?’ – have turned to me after interviews and asked, ‘Was I okay? I hope I was okay.’

Faith Salie

I think Mike Nichols is brilliant, but I think Jerry Robbins was a genius.

Rita Moreno

Some people are instantly brilliant. The Kenneth Branaghs of this world are ready-formed actors at 23 – he has used his success in lots of different ways – but there are people out there for whom acting is: ‘Ooh, I can get on the telly and be famous.’

Harriet Walter

The best song lyrics seem to me so artful, so brilliant, so warm and humorous, with both passion and wit, that my admiration is matched only by my envy.

David Lehman

I happen to love Saint-Saens in general. I think he’s a brilliant composer and sometimes underrated in a way because people like to pass him off as fluffy and not being serious.

Joshua Bell

I love George Clooney; I think George is brilliant.

Pierce Brosnan

I’m kind of a horse whisperer; I don’t know what it is. I’m not great on a horse. I’m getting better, but I’m not brilliant. So yeah, I’ve spent a lot of time with horses. They’re great creatures; I love them. I do love riding them when I get the chance to.

Kit Harington

Wolves are afraid of humans, whereas dogs are not. Wolves hunt game, whereas dogs scavenge human leftovers or eat what their human companions put out for dinner. Wolves are not great at following human commands, whereas dogs are brilliant at it.

Annie Lowrey

They say don’t meet your heroes, but when it comes to Bowie, he truly is the most brilliant person I’ve ever met.

Johan Renck

Well, you just know, as a writer, I didn’t really write one of the five best screenplays of the year. There were lots of brilliant screenplays; I was just one of the lucky ones who got nominated.

Patrick Marber

Barbara did the selecting and that’s probably the most brilliant thing was she put together a group of women, different backgrounds, different experiences.

Star Jones

Coldplay fans are the best in the world. If you like Coldplay then you’re obviously very intelligent and good looking and all-around brilliant.

Chris Martin

A few of Ellison’s short stories from the 1940s and 1950s were widely anthologized over the years. After a while, it became generally known that he was at work on another novel. Though he remained aware ever afterward of the authority ‘Invisible Man’ gave to him, no second novel followed his brilliant debut in 1952.

Darryl Pinckney

I’m not a writer. I think I can write short stories and poetry, but film writing, brilliant film writing, is a talent – you can’t just do it like that.

Samantha Morton

I used to watch ‘Doctor Who’ as a child with William Hartnell and Pat Troughton in the black-and-white days, so being cast is brilliant.

Bradley Walsh

The Browning love story? It is an ideal, all too rare, and yet I hardly think it strange. It would have been far stranger had the fates allowed those two brilliant passionate souls to beat themselves out in silence.

Marie Corelli

The difference between false memories and true ones is the same as for jewels: it is always the false ones that look the most real, the most brilliant.

Salvador Dali

There are so many brilliant women on television right now.

Martha Plimpton

Why shouldn’t there be more epic, brilliant female characters onscreen?

Florence Pugh

The general commanding congratulates his troops on their brilliant and successful occupation of Roanoke Island. The courage and steadiness they have shown under fire is what he expected from them, and he accepts it as a token of future victory.

Ambrose Burnside

My father has a manufacturing company in Kentucky, and he’s an electrical engineer. A brilliant man. A brilliant businessman. So he understands the business aspects of my business very well. My dad and I always communicate when I have to negotiate a deal.

Laura Bell Bundy

Working for President Nixon was the most extraordinary professional experience of my life. He was endlessly fascinating: brilliant, visionary, kind, generous, warm, funny – and yes, a good man.

Monica Crowley

I played behind Phil Thompson and Alan Hansen, and they were both brilliant centre-halves.

Bruce Grobbelaar

When I was 15, I went to see the Stranglers at Bath Pavilion. I saw Jean-Jacques Burnel take off his bass and whack a skinhead over the head with it because he gave a Nazi salute. I thought: ‘This is brilliant!’

Bill Bailey

When I turned 40, subconsciously, life was a blank sheet. Before, it was disjointed, and I was very displaced and quite mad, but it was a brilliant time. Everyone thinks I must have been unhappy.

James Nesbitt

There is so much to be celebrated about mental illness. I do believe that there is something to be said about the truly artistic, the truly brilliant, those of us who have been ‘touched by fire’ that should be celebrated, not stigmatized.

Mauro Ranallo

I haven’t been somebody who’s been smart about his money. There are a couple of actors who are quite brilliant with the way they’ve handled their money. But they’re not very good actors.

Burt Reynolds

Life stands before me like an eternal spring with new and brilliant clothes.

Carl Friedrich Gauss

Conservatives are either stupid or brilliant. Pick a narrative, leftist MSM. You can’t have it both ways.

Dana Loesch

For me, it’s life or death doing plays: there’s this perfectionist thing about me that it has to be brilliant – anything less than that is a failure.

Marianne Elliott

My favourite piece of music is actually ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’ as a whole. For me, it’s the most perfect and brilliant example of rock song writing.

John Gourley

The first time I came to London on my own, I was 15. I was absolutely oblivious to so many things. I had no expectations, no fears. I just came to do a National Youth Theatre season one summer. It was just brilliant.

Gina McKee

It’s a nonsense because, as we all know, there are brilliant 15-year-old readers and hopeless 50-year-old readers. All that categorisation is a matter of bookshop shelves rather than literary categories, I think.

Mal Peet

He has a brilliant mind until he makes it up.

Margot Asquith

It is brilliant to be able to say ‘you have never had a holiday with your wife and your kids, here you go.’ It is really lovely and heartwarming and we get to do it. It is lovely to get that opportunity. We remember them all.

Ant McPartlin

General Giap was one of the most brilliant military strategists of our era, who in Dien Bien Phu was able to place missile launchers in remote, mountainous jungles, something the yankee and European military officers considered impossible.

Fidel Castro

I think Coran Capshaw is such a brilliant entrepreneur and he always thinks about new stuff; the biggest stuff you can imagine. I know he’s working on a lot of things for me at the moment, and I think it will definitely help my career to go to the next level.

Tiesto

I think it’s always unfair, but, if you are Neymar or Messi or Suarez, people expect every week back-to-back goals or brilliant performances.

Edgar Davids

I always said I was never going to be one of those people to Instagram myself in the gym. But as soon as you get into exercise and get a taste of how brilliant it makes you feel, you want to share it!

Caroline Flack

‘Happy Death Day’ had so many things that, at the time, we were like, Oh no, no, no, no! that ended up being brilliant, so I knew it was special to me.

Jessica Rothe

Even modern English people are imperious, superior, ridden by class. All of the hypocrisy and the difficulties that are endemic in being British also make it an incredibly fertile place culturally. A brilliant place to live. Sad but true.

Pete Townshend

My work at NASA has always been about team efforts, and so it’s intrinsically about mentoring. I have been blessed with some brilliant colleagues who were able to take on huge challenges without a lot of guidance.

John C. Mather

When you’re 19 and writing plays, you think every actor is full of it. They just can’t handle your brilliant material.

Sam Shepard

I loved ‘Dexter.’ I loved the writing of ‘Dexter.’ I thought that was a brilliant show, and Michael C. Hall was just brilliant.

Margo Martindale

Meryl Streep’s brilliant, just brilliant. I’ve been fortunate to do two movies with Meryl. And for an actor to go moment to moment like she does, there’s no one better. And she dances between moments. Each take is different because she’s riding instincts, she’s riding impulses. And she trusts that.

Jeff Daniels

It’s amazing. I can’t believe how brilliant the whole thing is – my daughter, Georgia, is just wonderful.

Edward Hall

Books are something social – a writer speaking to a reader – so I think making the reading of a book the center of a social event, the meeting of a book club, is a brilliant idea.

Yann Martel

It is frequently a misfortune to have very brilliant men in charge of affairs. They expect too much of ordinary men.

Thucydides

It was Christopher’s brilliant concept that he did not want this to become like every other sitcom where you do one take, and the audience gets bored with seeing it ten times, you know, over and over again.

Stacy Keach

I really, really love music. I’m affected by it and uplifted by it, and made to laugh and cry, and almost fall in love with the person who has made me feel so brilliant and communicated so profoundly to me.

Siobhan Fahey

I think America has a brilliant future.

Harold Evans

With ‘The Expendables,’ you have such a brilliant mess of the greatest action stars of all time, so you’re in for the ride with those people.

Jason Statham

Men have made the world. And they’ve made a brilliant job of it. I love men. You know, men, you built Paris and you invented The Beatles, and, you know, and you’ve taught dogs to say ‘sausages.’ You know, I love your world. Thank you for it.

Caitlin Moran

I’ve just finished reading a book about the brilliant Margaret Rutherford. She wasn’t a beauty, but inside she was absolutely blazing and passionate about her work. She’s one of those life-affirming characters.

Sophie Thompson

My overly ambitious dream is to be a Lena Dunham – I get immense pleasure seeing her name repeated over and over in the end credits of her brilliant creation ‘Girls.’

Perdita Weeks

One of the brilliant things I realised after I’d left school is that there are so many ways you can learn. I do this best on the job.

Jameela Jamil

Kickstarter is perfect for us. It wasn’t something we heard about and just got to it. We did our research, met with the people at Kickstarter – they are brilliant, and they’re excited to work with us.

Rozonda Thomas

This confidence is not something that happens overnight. I have been working on it for a long time. I look in the mirror and do affirmations: ‘You are bold. You are brilliant. You are beautiful.’ If my lower pooch is really popping out that day, I look at it and say, ‘Pooch, you are cute!’

Ashley Graham

The Police, they were the guys that were like the gateway to the mainstream. In England, there was a very strong reggae movement that was going on. Anything that was happening in reggae happened out of England. They were brilliant. They could spot a sound that was cool, the ‘it’ sound.

Shaggy

Women are so strong and knowledgeable. You know, instead of competing with each other, I would love to complete each other. Take away that wall of competition and say, ‘Hey, let’s just all get together and help each other be brilliant.’

Marie Osmond

I don’t think you should spend that much time in the gym. Don’t sit around between sets too long. If you want to burn some calories, keep the sets tight. Give yourself 30 seconds to a minute between each set. Supersetting is brilliant.

Luke Evans

The Loden in Vancouver, where I stayed when I was filming ‘The Arrow,’ is a family-run hotel with a fantastic restaurant, great facilities, and brilliant people.

Colin Salmon

First, I started with music singing, writing songs, playing music. Later, I got into acting. I’m not a brilliant musician or a brilliant actor. But, to me, they’re still great vehicles for expression.

Murray Head

I never went to drama school. It’s a brilliant thing for the right type of person, but I threw myself in the deep end.

Callum Turner

God who is eternally complete, who directs the stars, who is the master of fates, who elevates man from his lowliness to Himself, who speaks from the cosmos to every single human soul, is the most brilliant manifestation of the goal of perfection.

Alfred Adler

Married life is absolutely brilliant.

Ronnie Wood

People who do not have funny in them are not funny when they read funny lines. Sorry. Just doesn’t work that way. Seriously, this is the biggest rule of all. You live and die with your casting decisions. Your actors are the heart and soul of the whole thing. Without brilliant actors, you will not have a brilliant film.

David Dobkin

I’ve probably got lots of heroes. One is a chap called Charles Campbell – he is a wonderful chap. We cooked together in a nightclub in Notting Hill. He told me brilliant stories of food and life and generally put me on the right track.

Fergus Henderson

Some actors are brilliant in David Mamet, but they would crash and burn in my plays and visa-versa. You either have my music in your body, or you don’t.

John Patrick Shanley

I think Anand Rai is one of the few brilliant directors we have.

R. Madhavan

If you grow up in Britain, you just do Shakespeare. If you go and work in a theater once or twice or three times in your life, you’re going to end up doing a Shakespeare, because he’s obviously such a brilliant, brilliant writer.

Timothy Dalton

I love Ray Mears. He’s brilliant. He’s so rude about me in the press, it’s outrageous!

Bear Grylls

I think what’s so brilliant about ‘Black Mirror’ is that it is a mirror into our own messed-up psyches.

Rosemarie DeWitt

The one thing that I know from the personal experiences that I’ve had with hackers and from people in tech who are brilliant at this thing, is there’s a lot of angst.

Sam Esmail

I’ve been in a New York City-based cabaret for the past seven years called The Citizens Band. It’s possibly one of the most brilliant things I’ve ever been involved with.

Karen Elson

My husband is the chef of the family; he’s a brilliant cook. Actually, it makes you quite lazy when you have somebody that’s so good at cooking under the same roof. It’s all beans or spaghetti when I’m left to run it.

Keeley Hawes

My mom was as brilliant a cook as my dad is.

Andrew Zimmern

I was in charge of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. So I had some of the most brilliant mathematical statistical minds in the country, who would put together the modern technology, if you like, of understanding the economy and tracking it and trying to influence it.

Daniel Patrick Moynihan

I love a lot of comedy actors and actresses like Kristen Wiig and Tina Fey and all those women who are really brilliant and funny.

Saoirse Ronan

Bart The Bear was fantastic to work with. Absolutely brilliant and so, so good. The things that that bear could do to order! He was one of the best actors I’ve ever worked with.

Gwendoline Christie

It’s daunting; it’s daunting doing something that you are not brilliant at in front of millions of people. But you can’t sit back and say no to opportunity. You have to throw yourself in.

Stacey Dooley

To me, diva means an extraordinary, outrageously theatrical, brilliant performer.

Roger Taylor

Why is it that I notice so many brilliant scientists using Macs for their personal computers; why does the Lawrence Livermore & Berkeley Labs buy millions of dollars worth of Macs?

Lene Hau

I think everyone should sing – it’s so good for you, as it makes you breathe deeply, and it’s good for you emotionally, too. It’s a brilliant release way of lifting the spirits.

Twiggy

Despite being such a brilliant director, Hansal Mehta is a simple and down to earth man. He is very sorted and driven by passion. So that’s a rare combination – being a good craftsman and a good human being.

Pratik Gandhi

There were movies that always made me want to be a director. You see brilliant scenes and the way the emotions were handled. I thought, I’d really like to do that.

Bruce Beresford

I’m very excited to be joining the ‘Gadget Show’ family. I’m always keen to try out new gadgets, so it’s going to be brilliant to be able to get my hands on the latest models and test them on behalf of the viewers.

Rachel Riley

But you know we couldn’t compare what we do with what the British athletes did at the Olympics. We are very proud to be British and if we have done our bit to promote Britain in a historic year for the country that’s brilliant.

Louis Tomlinson

Merlin was five years of my life. I enjoyed every year, every day. I had a brilliant time on it. But I’d be lying if I didn’t say I wanted to do more.

Colin Morgan

When you constantly revisit things, it’s hard to know if you’re freezing in time or if you’re a brilliant adult who’s working through it. I think about that in therapy, talking about the same things over and over again.

Jack Antonoff

Scott Asheton was a brilliant drummer, a natural musician.

Henry Rollins

Has Werner Herzog ever said anything that wasn’t true? What a brilliant fountain of wisdom. Everything he touches I’m just fascinated by.

Dan Gilroy

Whatever the difference between brilliant and average brains, we are all creative. And through practice and study we can enhance our skills and talents.

Jeff Hawkins

Coast is my go-to store for any awards do – it’s brilliant for occasion wear.

Kate Garraway

If they’re all so brilliant and I’m such an affirmative-action hire, how come they didn’t catch me?

Jayson Blair

I actually went to see ‘Rushmore,’ and I came late, and I missed myself. It was great, that scene. I caught that scene the other day on TV, funny enough, the first scene that you see with Jason Schwartzman and myself, where we talk about his grades. That’s a brilliant scene, and I have to say, we play it brilliantly.

Brian Cox

I’m always involved with the Aerospace Program and NASA and Goddard Space Flight Center. And if kids feel so inclined, they can log onto NASA and the Optimus Prime Spinoff Award, which we present every year to some of the brilliant young minds that are taking up into the academics of space, science, technology, math.

Peter Cullen

There was a period of time in America where the advertising world actually went to the housewives of America and had them write jingles that would appeal to them. It was actually brilliant marketing.

Julianne Moore

To portray an iconic character has been brilliant in itself, and to be able to do that on a show like ‘Once Upon a Time’ enhances that because the show puts a spin on characters and makes them very different and puts core values that are very different that aren’t in the original fairy tales a lot of people relate to.

Robbie Kay

I’ve worked with some brilliant coaches, and I’ve taken a real interest in all the methods they use and the choices they make. And I can tell you that Moyes’s sessions and the things he says in his team meetings are spot on.

Robin Van Persie

Trump has manufactured the first-ever Celebrity Immunity Bubble – rendering him incapable of offense, no matter whom he offends. It’s brilliant.

Greg Gutfeld

First lady has been a thankless position. Eleanor Roosevelt was brilliant and had strong views. She was criticized for her politics and for her appearance. Mrs. Roosevelt was attacked for being too involved in politics. Bess Truman was criticized for being uninvolved in politics.

Karen DeCrow

I love Hunch, the awesome team, my brilliant cofounders – we’re doing great work and building a great company.

Caterina Fake

It feels like Radiohead are famous, but that no one knows who we are. Which is brilliant, really.

Jonny Greenwood

I was brought up with beautiful music – Nat King Cole and Glen Miller from my dad, and my mum loved Judy Garland and Doris Day – brilliant stuff. Through my brothers and sisters I heard David Bowie and The Specials, The Carpenters, Meatloaf and The Rolling Stones.

Imelda May

I came across ‘The Song of Achilles’ by Madeline Miller in one of the most romantic ways one can find a story. I was digging through a pile of used books at my local library when my hand gravitated toward its brilliant teal and glistening gold cover.

Taylor Jenkins Reid

I had worked with Pranay Dixit in a film, who also hails from Lucknow. I always wanted to cast him for some of my projects as I believe he is brilliant at his craft of an actor.

Abhinav Shukla

Hairpieces are brilliant for adding volume.

Alexandra Roach

If you just, pretty much, take a random 15-month-old, just sit and watch them for 10 minutes and count out how many experiments, how much thinking you see going on, and it will put the most brilliant scientist to shame.

Alison Gopnik

In a way, I think Roxy Music is high camp, in a brilliant way.

Todd Haynes

Working with Jon Hamm was super-fun because he’s a brilliant actor and he’s very kind. I would hang around sets for scenes that I wasn’t even in because I wanted to watch how he worked.

Caity Lotz

South Florida’s international connections mean there’s a different kind of innovation here. We’re able to intersect with a lot of brilliant people who are not associated with Silicon Valley.

Rony Abovitz

Sheep may not be brilliant, but they know that sheep in pen is stage number one of lamb chops.

Donald McCaig

Plays by people like Martin McDonagh and Brian Friel attract huge audiences, not because they’re Irish, but because they’re brilliant plays.

Garry Hynes

Happiness is not a brilliant climax to years of grim struggle and anxiety. It is a long succession of little decisions simply to be happy in the moment.

J. Donald Walters

And also they were absolutely brilliant in one way, you know: they knew how effective is not to punish somebody who is guilty; what Communist Party members could afford to do was mind-boggling: they could do practically anything they wanted – steal, you know, lie, whatever.

Milos Forman

One of the brilliant things about Britain is the way you’ve managed to save old things but to keep using them – that they’ve not just become museums the way they do in the United States.

Bill Bryson

I love Kathy Griffin, I think she’s brilliant, but for me, there is a line when I go OK, that’s too much.

Julie Brown

In every school, more boys wanted to be remembered as a star athlete than as a brilliant student.

James S. Coleman

The ALS ice bucket challenge was really the most brilliant publicity stunt of 2014, and it has brought worldwide awareness for a barely-known disease.

Yolanda Hadid

Lady Gaga has a very unjaded intelligence. It’s brilliant, ’cause it’s anti-snob.

Mika

Famously, there’s not really anywhere to go after nihilism. It’s not progressing toward anything, it’s a statement of outrage, however brilliant.

Alan Moore

I loved Julia Louis-Dreyfus’s show ‘The New Adventures of Old Christine.’ That made me laugh out loud. She’s like Lucille Ball. She’s brilliant.

Helen Hunt

What’s the point of doing a brilliant Hedda Gabler in my back garden if no one will ever see it?

Jennifer Ehle

I think someone like Khandi Alexander, who’s now on ‘Treme,’ is one of the most extraordinary actresses I’ve seen in years. But she’s dependent on someone brilliant like David Simon to realize that and to give her a forum. Tyler Perry’s not interested in that kind of nuance because it doesn’t sell.

Hilton Als

In TV writing, Armando Iannucci’s satire ‘The Thick of It’ is brilliant – equal parts hysterically funny, terrifyingly believable, and Oh-my-God-I-can’t-believe-he-actually-said-that – and it’s got the most satisfyingly creative insults ever.

Tana French

The thing that my father was absolutely brilliant at doing was being Bruce Lee. Nobody was able to do what he did or be like he was.

Shannon Lee

The late brilliant actions in North Carolina, Tennessee, and Arkansas divided and weakened the enemy on the Rappahannock, and the auspicious moment seems to have arrived to strike a great and mortal blow at the Rebellion, and to gain that decisive victory which is due to the country.

Ambrose Burnside

We’re great, Jo and me. We’re pals, and I guess sex has a lot to do with it. She’s also brilliant at clearing a room. So protective, so devoted. I can’t believe how much she loves me.

Ronnie Wood

The universe at large is full of questions that we still don’t know anything about, and there will be always young people, brilliant, who are going to make new discoveries.

Ahmed Zewail

Take Tom Sachs as an artist. His brain is more brilliant than anything, so of course, anything he puts out over a ten-year period is going to continue to be super relevant. But if you look at some artists, they have one good idea, but unless you know where it’s coming from, it’s not going to be lasting.

Virgil Abloh

I seem to be able to go from part to part without being recognised, which I like. When I was little, I resented it with every fibre of my being when Ma was recognised. Another way of looking at celebrity, though, is it’s being famous for being brilliant at something.

Rachael Stirling

RoboCop the first movie was fantastic. But even if there was no movie, the concept of RoboCop is brilliant, first because it lends itself to a lot of social criticism, but also because it poses a question, ‘When do you lose your humanity?’

Jose Padilha

Will Ferrell’s made a lot of brilliant movies.

Noah Baumbach

I feel like there’s a voice in my head, always, telling me every idea is brilliant, and another telling me every idea is the worst. And they argue in my head until somebody wins, until I solicit an audience to be, like, ‘Will you help me figure this out? Is this the best or the worst idea?’ And they tell me!

B. J. Novak

Ex-Fidelity mutual fund manager Peter Lynch was certainly brilliant in one respect: he knew to get out when the gettin’ was good.

Bill Gross

I don’t think I’m a brilliant writer, but I’m a good writer, and it’s just so empowering to get involved.

Maggie Gyllenhaal

I hear from people all the time and it infuriates me that ‘President Obama’s a brilliant politician.’ No he absolutely is not.

Dan Bongino

If you ask people if they enjoy crime novels, they’ll say, ‘Oh, my guilty pleasure is…’ then name a really brilliant crime writer.

Sophie Hannah

On ‘Love Actually,’ I met Hugh Grant, who is a relative: our great-grandmothers were sisters. He’d call me cousin and ruffle my hair. And it was brilliant working with David Tennant on ‘Doctor Who.’

Thomas Brodie-Sangster

It was not until I got my first job, at the University of Washington in Seattle, and began playing chess with Don Gordon, a brilliant young theorist, that I learned economic theory.

Douglass North

The most pressure I’ve ever felt to be brilliant was in drama school – those were the toughest auditions. I really wanted to prove myself.

Gustaf Skarsgard

Nic Hoult is just such a brilliant actor.

Lucy Boynton

I really love ‘Real Housewives.’ It’s like the, you know, comedy stuff that’s, like, intentionally funny. Like, I love ‘Nathan for You,’ that Comedy Central show. It’s just brilliant. My friend Bill Eichner has a show called ‘Billy on the Street’ that I write for, and even if I didn’t write for it, I’d still love it.

Julie Klausner

I’m not saying that photographers are dumber than other people, but they are the folks who walk around with brilliant white lights in nighttime riots.

John Sandford

I have had four great years at Everton. The fans have been brilliant with me from the day I signed until the day I left. I am proud that the club will always be a big part of my career.

Gareth Barry

If you look at the Qur’an with the eyes of a sound heart, you will see that its six aspects are so brilliant and transparent that no darkness, no misguidance, no doubt or suspicion, no trickery could enter it or find a fissure through which to enter and violate its purity.

Said Nursi

I think it has sullied his presidency. As brilliant a politician as Bill Clinton is, as magnetic a personality as he can be, there is one little screw loose somewhere.

Morley Safer

Lee is such a brilliant rival. I treasure the opportunities we have to play each other.

Lin Dan

What makes Johnny Depp so brilliant is you truly have no idea what kind of character he’s going to play next.

Alexa Vega

To be able to work with people who I have respected and admired, to be a part of something like the Cannes Film Festival, is surreal and brilliant.

Luke Evans

Some actors are brilliant character guys. They submerge.

Sylvester Stallone

When I came out of Stanford, I looked at my brilliant classmates, who were going into Wall Street high finance, Silicon Valley, advanced engineering, and I said to myself, ‘Jeff, go into an industry where nobody can add.’

Jeff Bewkes

Approaching my second novel was, admittedly, a bit of a struggle. But having an amazing team at Atheneum Books, especially my very patient, brilliant editor Namrata Tripathi, took a stressful situation and turned it into a really great learning experience for me.

John Corey Whaley

My parents are so amazing; they’re brilliant. We try to take one step at a time and be wise about the decisions we make and keep our values and the things that are important.

Naomi Scott

I think one of my favorite productions ever was Sondheim’s ‘Assassins’ at the Roundabout in 2004. Beyond brilliant.

Robert Lopez

I started out modeling at a young age and surrounded myself with different brilliant minds. I have so many people to get educated from, and I’ve been a sponge.

Kellan Lutz

Obama may be brilliant, but he’s not a leader.

Sophie B. Hawkins

When I was a kid, the FA Cup was the one: it was bigger than the European Cup, even. So to win that, for me, and my dad as well – we used to watch it together – was brilliant.

Peter Crouch

I fooled some of the most brilliant people in journalism.

Jayson Blair

Income-producing unit trusts are brilliant because if you can accept capital values will be volatile for a while, your dividend income will always be higher than what you get in the bank.

Peter Hargreaves

Greg Berlanti is in charge of a lot of superhero shows on television. He is a literal superhero. He is absolutely brilliant.

Becky Albertalli

My father, Rex, was one of the most charismatic human beings I’ve ever known, and also one of the most brilliant.

Jeannette Walls

Action comedy, if you can get it right, it is, for me, a particularly brilliant genre. It really is.

Jason Statham

Most big cities like London and Glasgow have great big rivers that are unmissable. What’s brilliant about the Water of Leith is that it’s so hidden. It’s a secret.

Antony Gormley

There are women who are just extraordinary, who are smart and brilliant, sensual women in their 70s and even 80s!

Amanda de Cadenet

When I was young, my mum was part of a brilliant puppet theatre that toured all over the world.

Arthur Darvill

Some politicians that I’ve seen have been brilliant with the public. They almost speak with the skill of an actor.

Kevin Spacey

There are plenty of brilliant people who are too stressed out to read challenging literary novels.

John Burdett

In comparison, Google is brilliant because it uses an algorithm that ranks Web pages by the number of links to them, with those links themselves valued by the number of links to their page of origin.

Michael Shermer

Adam Sandler is truly brilliant. He plays these goofy characters, but he is a brilliant fellow.

Henry Winkler

When I scored on my debut, it was a brilliant feeling.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

I was being flirted with for ‘Modern Family,’ which my wife still hasn’t let me live down, but it’s one of those things where that show is so brilliant because the casting couldn’t be any more perfect. It wouldn’t have been right for me, and I wouldn’t have been right for it.

Josh Gad

Although many of his other novels are brilliant there is a power in ‘Oliver Twist’ that I believe Dickens never managed to retrieve. It is as if he was sent to this earth with the sole purpose of writing this book.

Henning Mankell

I’m a nearly uncontrollable Geoff Dyer fan, who I think is one of the most comically brilliant writers today.

Billy Collins

I still think that, uh, the original draft from ‘The Room’ was brilliant in its own way. It made me laugh, which is – which is a good thing. It got a reaction.

Greg Sestero

I knew acting was what I wanted to do. I don’t know if I was brilliant at it, but when I was doing school plays, I loved it so much I didn’t want it to end. I feel like I’m exactly the same as when I was doing plays at school, to be honest.

James Corden

As I understand the American Founders, the most brilliant and daring idea they had was that it’s possible to create a free society that could stay free forever.

Os Guinness

It was when I was on stage that I realized that acting could be such a brilliant job.

Domhnall Gleeson

Sarah Palin is brilliant. She is a media magnet and a media magnate. She creates headlines and draws crowds wherever she goes, whether it’s 98 degrees in the desert of Arizona or below freezing in the snow of Wisconsin.

Mark McKinnon

The Kalahari is brilliant – and easy to visit.

Nigel Dennis

I love watching Jeff Bridges act. He’s brilliant.

Michael Sheen

Now that I know how to handle a bow and arrow, I find it very therapeutic. It is a brilliant way to ease your mind, so I am going to keep it up in my free time. It is a very fun skill to have.

Rose Leslie

No matter how brilliant an actor is, there’s always a point where they let you down, but that’s all part of their journey. They might be trying something they need to explore.

Amanda Hale

We are a nation of communities… a brilliant diversity spread like stars, like a thousand points of light in a broad and peaceful sky.

George H. W. Bush

When I tell people that I lost my baby weight through breastfeeding, they think I’m exaggerating. But it was brilliant for that. It is great for bonding with your baby. It is hard when no one else can feed her, but it was worth it for me. I loved it.

Imelda May

I’ll never forget seeing ‘Guys and Dolls’ over and over. I used to sit up in the coliseum watching this magnificent musical. Brilliant.

Ron Moody

Ann Wilson has an amazing voice and is a brilliant songwriter.

Paul Rodgers

He was always brilliant, but when Pep Guardiola started to use him as a ‘false’ No. 9, he got even better. It’s impossible to be more of a footballer than Messi.

Frank Rijkaard

David Lynch is a very kind and warm-hearted man. I really think he’s brilliant.

Sheryl Lee

Working with David Bowie was very interesting, but I couldn’t surrender to it. I should have let him produce a record for me, but I’m very perverse in some ways. He’s brilliant, but the entourage were rather daunting.

Marianne Faithfull

If I had been brilliant or a genius, I wouldn’t have needed to break the law just to survive.

Frank Abagnale

Gemma Arterton in ‘The Master Builder’ at the Almeida – she was absolutely brilliant. Ibsen is difficult and quite hard to follow, but she just brings the stage to life.

Luke Evans

A lot of my writer friends – some of whom are brilliant – work when the Muse calls them, for lack of a better description. You know, days of nothing, then this creative burst where they write for 36 hours straight fueled by caffeine and idealism.

G. Willow Wilson

I had a brilliant trip to Mexico with my friend Ellie during my gap year. We thought we were being really cool and going off the beaten track while all our friends went to Thailand and Australia. The first beachside bar we walked into – there were two girls from my sixth form in there.

Emily Berrington

I think Sarah Michelle Gellar has done some brilliant work as Buffy.

Julie Benz

A man must live like a great brilliant flame and burn as brightly as he can. In the end he burns out. But this is far better than a mean little flame.

Boris Yeltsin

During the Second Boer War, from 1899 to 1902, Britain was rampantly jingoistic: anyone who opposed the war was cast as a traitor. The ‘Guardian’ stood against it and ran a campaign for peace while the brilliant ‘Guardian’ reporter Emily Hobhouse exposed the concentration camps for the Boers run by the British.

Katharine Viner

Oprah is wildly successful, and she’s a brilliant businesswoman. She’s also somebody who’s overcome a ton of demons in her own life, and that’s really what shaped her. I think the same could be said for me.

Glenn Beck

Sydney in general is eclectic. You can be on that brilliant blue ocean walk in the morning and then within 20 minutes you can be in a completely vast suburban sprawl or an Italian or Asian suburb, and it’s that mix of people, it’s that melting pot of people that give it its vital personality.

Baz Luhrmann

My hope is that we can spread the word: Wonder Woman is not some unapproachable goddess. She’s funny, dangerous, intimidating, brilliant, and compassionate. In many ways, I think she’s the most human superheroine there is.

Gail Simone

I love ‘Shattered Glass.’ It’s one of my favorite movies. I think it’s just brilliant.

Steve Zahn

I think ‘Girls’ is pretty brilliant.

Zoe Lister-Jones

I’m a huge Wes Anderson fan. I literally love every single film. He hasn’t made a bad film; I’ve seen every single one. They’ve all been brilliant, from ‘Bottle Rocket’ up to ‘Moonrise Kingdom,’ they’ve all been wonderful.

Saoirse Ronan

Of course when I started, it’s not because I was such a brilliant actress. I didn’t know I was good. I thought I was really bad. I was very shy. I was 18 and dreaming of becoming an actress.

Carole Bouquet

I have been running maths clubs for children completely free. In my building in Bangalore, I conduct maths clubs for several months, and every child who attended the club was poor in mathematics and is now showing brilliant results.

Shakuntala Devi

Turing was a quite brilliant mathematician, most famous for his work on breaking the German Enigma codes. It is no exaggeration to say that, without his outstanding contribution, the history of the Second World War could have been very different.

Gordon Brown

My dad’s got a brilliant eye for scripts ‘cos he’s a literary agent. He and my agent read a load of scripts and filter them.

Daniel Radcliffe

Jim Cameron is a feisty man and a perfectionist, but also absolutely brilliant.

Kate Winslet

In Liverpool, where I live, we have a brilliant library which has been refurbished, and I like going there.

Shaun Evans

I was obsessed with country music when I was a kid, and it’s definitely had a huge influence on the way I write songs. I was always attracted to songs that had a brilliant pun or a clever turn of phrase, but came from a dark, bitter place. As a writer, I’ve always gravitated towards that feeling.

Teddy Thompson

My life as an author has always been about brilliant, odd people.

David Lagercrantz

Samantha Cameron

Siddhartha Mukherjee

I went to a very posh school, I had a very privileged upbringing with parents who were incredibly loving and brilliant. I’ve never tried to hide that; I’m not going to change my accent or talk in a different way.

David Cameron

I admire Tom Ades: he’s a brilliant conductor, and he gets just the right hard, brilliant sound from the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra for Russian music.

Charles Hazlewood

Beatbullying’s ‘The Big March 2012’ is such a brilliant campaign and I am very proud to be a part of it. I have been a victim of cyber bullying myself and I know firsthand just how hurtful it can be. People think that they can hide behind computers and send nasty and hurtful comments to people, and this is wrong.

Katherine Jenkins

The name Holly Fulton has become synonymous with daring, bold graphic prints which you just know if you wear you’ll have a brilliant time in.

Giles Deacon

I believe I am a brilliant and gifted guide, that I have been given a tremendous intuition.

Mel Robbins

In ‘Night At The Museum 3,’ with Ben Stiller, I was only given a couple of lines. If you are in guys’ comedies, it’s not like you are ever going to just get handed some jokes and a brilliant role.

Rebel Wilson

In an ideal world, the ‘Daily Mail’ would write about what a brilliant mother I am. But it’s not going to happen.

Lily Allen

So many amongst us live in the past rather than loving the present and building a brilliant future. Some people stay stuck for years over something they did or a failure they’ve experienced. Sad. A life is a terrible thing to waste.

Robin S. Sharma

Everybody knows that Alexander Hamilton was a founding father of the United States, a young father to be sure: only thirty at the time of the Constitutional Convention and just turned thirty-eight when he left behind his brilliant career as Secretary of the Treasury.

Edmund Morgan

A lot of people say I was brilliant. I wasn’t. I was an opportunist: a young entrepreneur who saw things and took advantage.

Frank Abagnale

I had the chance to work with Michael Jackson who was as brilliant as they come.

Tommy Mottola

I love ‘Batman.’ I love the Adam West ‘Batman.’ I love the animated ‘Batman.’ The character of Batman can encompass any interpretation, which is what makes that character so brilliant and why it’s survived so many different media.

Grant Morrison

Virtue is something you have to get good at, like playing the trombone or tolerating bores at parties. Being a virtuous human being takes practice; and those who are brilliant at being human (what Christians call the saints) are the virtuosi of the moral sphere – the Pavarottis and Maradonas of virtue.

Terry Eagleton

Te Papa Museum is brilliant.

Richard C. Armitage

Having children is the greatest thing that can happen to you as a husband and wife. They are infuriating at times when they’re little, but on the whole, they’re such a joy. I don’t think I was the most brilliant mother when they were young. I had quite a bit of help because I was working and I enjoyed my work.

Mary Berry

In the early ’90s when the American independent movie started, it held personal vision as a premium. That was brilliant timing.

Allison Anders

David Simon is a brilliant writer, brilliant at being able to take what is ordinary and make it extraordinary.

Naomi Scott

I think Keira Knightley is amazing, and I’ve heard also that she is one of the coolest, most down-to-earth, brilliant girls, and I really look up to her in that respect. She’s got it all, really, and I think she’s made interesting, bold choices in her work.

Lily James

I love children and I love family and I love that interaction. Because I had a really close relationship with my mother, I understand that deep powerful love, and it’s so beautiful. To be a mother to a child is the most brilliant gift; it’s gorgeous.

Alicia Keys

Being brilliant is no great feat if you respect nothing.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

We’re fans of stuff like Maiden, but I think we generally get it from weirder places. For me, the Eagles’ ‘Hotel California’ represents one of the most brilliant harmony approaches to music. Boston did it very well, too.

Synyster Gates

Here the Frenchman, Spaniard, and Englishman all passed, leaving each his legend; and a brilliant and more or less feudal civilization with its aristocracy and slaves has departed with the economic system upon which it rested.

Hervey Allen

I think the ‘South Park’ guys are brilliant.

Dan Savage

It’s really, really cool that we’ve been able to have these opportunities to surround ourselves with these people because they’re brilliant. Like, Dolly Parton is legendary, and she’s maybe the nicest person I’ve ever met in my entire life and, like, amazing.

Kirstin Maldonado

Stephen Frears is brilliant and has made movies that inspired me for my whole life.

Simon Helberg

I’ve got a Range Rover. It’s brilliant actually but it’s manual.

Mick Ralphs

Henry Hazlitt

Every so often in life, you encounter a brilliant idea. Usually, at least in my case, it’s somebody else’s idea.

Jean Hanff Korelitz

June Jordan, who died of cancer in 2002, was a brilliant, fierce, radical, and frequently furious poet. We were friends for thirty years. Not once in that time did she step back from what was transpiring politically and morally in the world. She spoke up, and led her students, whom she adored, to do the same.

Alice Walker

I think it’s really rare to see women on television who are brilliant, selfish, vain, fallible – and I feel like I have all those capacities in myself, so it’s good to see people in the media representing all of those things.

Kerry Bishe

With great artists like Elvis, sometimes the songs weren’t the greatest thing about him. When I tried to perform some of the songs, I noticed some of the tunes weren’t all that brilliant, but it was the performance that sold them.

Imelda May

It’s a real gift to be able to have the works of brilliant, great people to learn from and build from. It gives you so much more to draw on, and then you don’t have to be all about three-chord pop songs. I don’t really like that kind of writing.

Regina Spektor

The universe at large is full of questions that we still don’t know anything about, and there will be always young people, brilliant, who are going to make new discoveries.

Ahmed Zewail

The two things that matter the most to me: emotional resonance and rocket launchers. Party of Five, a brilliant show, and often made me cry uncontrollably, suffered ultimately from a lack of rocket launchers.

Joss Whedon

I worked in a number of high schools in New York, and I wound up at Stuyvesant High School, which is known nationally for producing brilliant scientists and mathematicians, but I had writing classes. I thought I was teaching. They thought I was teaching, but I was learning.

Frank McCourt

Ioan Gruffudd

Leon Charney

Paul Hawken

Vicki Lawrence

I think Jennifer Lawrence is a brilliant role model for young girls, not some of the models that I see on the runway.

Karen Elson

It strikes me every time I do an interview that I don’t really sit around thinking about my goals and my life and my career. I do what I love doing and I get a lot of feedback. I’m free as a bird, you know? If I do something good, it’s, ‘Wow, that was brilliant,’ and if I do something bad, it just goes away.

Lena Olin

There are over 50 brilliant scientists working at my lab, and being sensitive to their needs is among the top skill sets that scientists like me have to learn.

Ida Lupino

I can’t pick a favorite animal; I love so many! But I guess if I have to choose, I pick bees! There’s this brilliant documentary called ‘Queen of the Sun: What Are the Bees Telling Us?’ I think it’s important for people to be educated about bees – they pollinate almost all the food we eat. They are amazing!

Isabel Lucas

When we’re in the shower, when we’re thinking about our idea – boy, does it sound brilliant. But the reality is that most of our ideas are actually terrible.

Eric Ries

I loved being in the film called ‘Carnal Knowledge’ – the one with Jack Nicholson, which was very dark but a really brilliant movie. I loved being in ‘The Ritz.’ ‘The Ritz’ I think is just hilarious. I just saw it again recently and by God, it’s still funny!

Rita Moreno

Kelly, Kelly, Kelly. I love your voice man, you give me chills… Brilliant.

Randy Jackson

I’m not one of those critics that believes U.S. foreign policy is confused, or stupid, or misinformed, or well-intentioned but it goes awry. I think it’s a brilliant policy filled with many brilliant, terrible, horrible victories.

Michael Parenti

City are a great club, and I had five great years there and enjoyed every minute. The fans were brilliant with me the whole time there, and that made the decision difficult.

Elvis Stojko
