“The theater itself is so archaic and old fashioned, that it doesn't really matter to me whether it's on Avenue D or at the Helen Hayes Theater. What's the difference? It's still a very nostalgic form. Also, it means you're knowingly walking into a room where there's actors. I feel it's very embarrassing. Because, you know, they're right there. You always think like, they can see you, and I think it's mortifying, frankly, and I hate to sit near the front, where you feel they actually might see you. It's too ... it's too live.” ThinkingKnowsFeelsMeanStillsMatterMightFormHateActorsDifferencesRoomsFrontsWalkingI HateTheaterEmbarrassingOld FashionedAvenuesNostalgicHelen Author:Fran Lebowitz
“The issue of comparative performances can be regarded as settled to-day, both scientifically and practically. Though differences in attitudes between men and women still form a favorite topic of drawing-room conversation ... women's abilities are no longer seriously in doubt. These discussions rather seem to be a kind of rearguard action carried on after the main battle has been decided.” MenKindHas BeensStillsSeemsActionFormDifferencesAbilityRoomsAttitudeIssuesDoubtBattleConversationMen And WomenDecidedPerformancesDrawingDiscussionTopics Book:Women's Two Roles: Home and Work Source: Women's Two Roles: Home and Work
“The real test is this one: When you're alone in a room, when you're in a private place and nobody else can see you, what do you choose to do? Eat well, or eat poorly? Exercise, or watch television? Practice something, or do nothing? The best version of the truth appears to you and you alone, when nobody else can see. This is the test of discipline, and it's what makes the difference in your life. It's what regulates your own system and guides it. The individual alone comprehends it.” WellsRealIndividualDifferencesRoomsWatchesPracticeTelevisionDisciplineExerciseTestsGuidesVersionsYou Choose Author:Georges St-Pierre
“It doesn't make any difference how much money a father earns, his name is always Dad-Can-I.... Like all other children, my five have one great talent: they are gifted beggars. Not one of them ever ran into the room, looked up at me, and said, "I'm really happy that you're my father, and as a tangible token of my appreciation, here's a dollar.” ChildrenSaidFatherNamesDifferencesRoomsFiveTalentDadDollarsAppreciationRanGiftedTangibleBeggarReally HappyTokensGreat Talent Author:Bill Cosby
“Being singer is different than being an actor, where you call up sources from your own experience that you can apply to whatever Shakespeare drama you're in. But an actor is pretending to be somebody, a singer isn't. And that's the difference. Singers today have to sing songs where there's very little emotion involved. That and the fact that they have to sing hit records from years gone by doesn't leave a lot of room for any kind of intelligent creativity.” YearsKindLittlesDifferentFactsTodaySongActorsDifferencesRoomsEmotionCreativityGoneRecordsSourceInvolvedDramaIntelligentSingersPretendingYears Gone By Author:Bob Dylan
“The difference is in Hostel it's in the theatre - it's in public but it's in a private place. You have to actively make a choice to want to go see it. It's not being forced on anyone. Whereas 24 you can be flipping channels and it's right there in your living room. Anyone has access to that. But that just shows how mainstream it is and how people are seeing this stuff on YouTube. People are scared of it. This is a subject matter that everyone's talking about and everyone's thinking about, particularly in American culture.” PeopleThinkingWantMatterShowsChoicesCultureStuffDifferencesRoomsTalkingSeeingSubjectsScaredTheatreAccessMainstreamAmerican CultureYoutubeSubject MatterLiving Room Author:Eli Roth
