“I had a huge advantage when I started 50 years ago - my job was secure. I didn't have to promote myself. These days there's far more pressure to make a mark, so the temptation is to make adventure television or personality shows. I hope the more didactic approach won't be lost.” YearsShowsJobsLostTelevisionAdventureHugePersonalityApproachAdvantageYears AgoMarkPressureTemptationSecureThese DaysDidactic Author:David Attenborough
“I think once you start as an announcer, you have to decide what kind of approach you're going to have. I decided very early that I was going to be a reporter, that I would not cheer for the team. I don't denigrate people who do it. It's fine. I think you just have to fit whatever kind of personality you have, and I think my nature was to be more down the middle and that's the way I conducted the broadcasts.” PeopleThinkingWayKindTeamMiddleFinePersonalityFitApproachDecidedCheerReportersAnnouncers Author:Ernie Harwell
“On these matters of specific fact, like is the mushroom an extraterrestrial and that sort of thing, I haven't the faintest idea. The mushroom itself is such a mercurial, elusive, Zen sort of personality that I never believe a word it says. I simply entertain its notions and try and sort through them, and I found that to be the most enriching approach to it.” TryingBelieveIdeasMatterFactsFoundHavensPersonalityApproachNotionElusiveMushroomsEnrichingExtraterrestrial Author:Terence McKenna
“People tell me I'm a comedian, but I don't approach acting from that perspective. I do know that everything in life has to do with your timing and perception. You have to be comfortable with the rhythm that you're in. You can't just jump into a fast rhythm if yours is slow. You might have to pick up the pace but in your own particular way. It has to do with personality, too.” PeopleIfsKnowsWayMightActingParticularPerspectivePersonalityComfortablePerceptionApproachPicksRhythmComedianPaceTiming Author:Mike Tyson
“We've known each other [in Motorpsycho ] since 1985 or '86, are really different as personalities, and yet have actually never disagreed to any degree.

“I don't really think I have the personality. I am not very external. I don't want to dance on the table and do impressions. So I think that the way I approach it is really loving story. That's my first love - the words. The words and the story and how to create images. I guess I come at that as a director. I think that's much more in my personality to be a director, so that's kind of informed my acting.” ThinkingWayWantFirstsKindStoriesActingPersonalityDirectorsApproachTablesImpressionFirst Love Author:Jodie Foster
“People with antisocial personality disorders aren't automatically bad - they simply approach the world with a more ruthless set of lenses. The lack of empathy or very weak empathy and the ability to read other people's weak spots can be a flammable combination when you get in the way of something they want. But they aren't a different species. They're a part of our spectrum.” PeopleWorldWayWantDifferentAbilityPersonalityApproachEmpathyWeakSpeciesSpotsCombinationDisorderLensesSpectrumRuthlessAntisocialLack Of EmpathyPersonality DisordersWeak Spots Author:Eden Robinson
