“I find my dress sense tends to be a bit of a mixture between high fashion and unique vintage pieces with a little bit of street trends. For example, I might find a really nice, suede dinner jacket that I'd wear with a basic plain white shirt and some chinos and a pair of Nike trainers.” LittlesMightBitsWhitePiecesNiceStreetsFashionExampleLittle BitUniqueDressesDinnerShirtsPairsTrendsMixturesJacketsReally NiceTrainersVintageNikeHigh FashionWhite Shirts Author:Tinie Tempah
“I do have a little bit more confidence in - or at least familiarity with - my process. For example, when it feels like it's going badly or that I'm lost, I know I'll eventually find my way because I've been through it before.

“Until I saw my drawings replayed on the iPad, I'd never seen myself draw. Someone watching me would be concentrating on the exact moment, but I'd always be thinking a little bit ahead. That's especially so in a drawing where you are limiting yourself, a line drawing for example. When you are doing them you are very tense, because you have to reduce everything to such simple terms.” ThinkingLittlesMomentsWould BeBitsTermLinesSimpleSawsExampleLittle BitDrawsDrawingWhere You AreTenseConcentratingIpadsLimiting Yourself Author:David Hockney
“Gisele Bundchen I always admired. I think she is an example for all models. If I could have just a little bit of her career would already be a happy girl. She seems to be a determined woman, a fighter, very strong. I think she is an icon of Brazilian people. Gisele is a woman who is extremely inspiring, not only in the fashion world, she also does great things for the world.” PeopleIfsThinkingWorldLittlesDoeSeemsGirlStrongBitsCareersFashionExampleLittle BitModelsDeterminedGreat ThingsFighterIf I CouldVery StrongIconsHappy GirlFashion WorldDetermined Woman Author:Rosie Huntington-Whiteley
“Even dramatically how you position some person, the depth, the existence [in 3D] is different than a flat image even though by itself it has depth, we create the illusion of depth. For example, some of the shots I have to stay closer to the actor because it's a young actor, I like it closer for some of the shots. I watch 2D scenes next to the camera, then when I go back to my station and watch it in 3D I have to go back and reduce his acting, he has to shrink a little bit because he peeks out more.” LittlesPersonsDifferentYoungNextActorsBitsActingExistenceWatchesExamplePositionSceneLittle BitIllusionShotsCamerasDepthFlatsStationsShrinksYoung Actors Author:Ang Lee

“In a story, for example, you'll start off with a character who is a little bit of a cartoon. That's not satisfying and you start revising. And as you revise you always are making it better by being specific and by observing more closely, which actually is really the same as saying you love your characters. The close observation equals love of them.” LittlesCharacterStoriesBitsLove YouExampleLittle BitObservationSatisfyingCartoonObservingRevising Author:George Saunders
“Before the 3rd century you're having several philosophical schools still as a going concern. You have not only the Platonists and the Aristotelians but you have Scepticism, you have Stoicism, you even have a little bit of Epicureanism. And what happens after Plotinus is that everybody becomes a Neo-Platonist. So if we then go forward to the Islamic world for example, Plotinus is immensely influential, and Neo-Platonism becomes at least one major component of mainstream Islamic philosophy as well.” IfsWorldWellsLittlesStillsPhilosophyHappensSchoolBitsCenturyExampleMajorsLittle BitConcernPhilosophicalIslamicMainstreamStoicismComponentsInfluentialScepticismEpicureanism Author:Peter Adamson

“That was the thing about Prabhupada, you see. He didn't just talk about loving Krishna and getting out of this place, but he was the perfect example. He talked about always chanting, and he was always chanting. I think that that in itself was perhaps the most encouraging thing for me. It was enough to make me try harder, to be just a little bit better. He was a perfect example of everything he preached.” ThinkingTryingLittlesEnoughBitsPerfectExampleLittle BitHarderKrishnaChantingMost Encouraging Author:George Harrison
“Different presidents are different as far as their public persona vs. their persona meeting with advisers.
