~Ted Nelson
~Ted Nelson
But it seemed to me that the American way of doing things was to obliterate a complete area, without really knowing exactly what was there and where they were.
~Peter Scott
~Peter Scott
But it's just that the whole country is making generally lousy films these days and has been for quite a while. That's the big problem that we all have to think about.
~Alexander Payne
~Alexander Payne
But it's much more exciting to make Die Hard. One of the reasons that I think that movie is so successful is it deals with those very important blue-collar relationship themes. But it's more visually beautiful to show things blowing up. It just gives you more on the screen.
~Penn Jillette
~Penn Jillette
But it's very difficult, I can tell you I played the Czech Open a few times and it's very difficult just to go on to a scene where the course is prepared differently when the greens are fast and he's not used to it and they're hard as a rock and he's not used to it.

But my method of the pillar, as it throws the horse yet more upon the haunches, is still more effectual to this purpose, and besides always gives him the ply to the side he goes of.

But now I wish I could back to Stockholm to make international films there.
~Lasse Hallstrom
~Lasse Hallstrom
But now it's kind of a given that a 15-year-old would have a record deal and sell a quarter of a million records. No one's expecting her to answer any deep theological questions. And I'll tell you, I was asked some deep theological questions from the git-go.

~Barney Frank
~Barney Frank
But one led to two, two led to four, four led to eight, until at the end it was about 85 a day - the doctors could not believe I was taking that much. And that was just the valium - I'm not talking about the other pills I went through.

But some things are the same. My mother still owns the house I grew up in, on what would now be called a cul de sac, but which the sign on the corner called a dead end street.
~Mink Stole

But, Tarantino has seen all of my movies. He's seen my good stuff, he's seen my bad stuff, he's seen the ones I directed, he's read my autobiography. There's an awful lot of things he knows about me, all of which I think had something to do with his casting.
