I don't feel the need to direct. I tried to get other people to direct Dances, but they wouldn't do it. They all thought it was too long. One director wanted to cut the Civil War sequence. Another thought the white woman was very cliched.
Kevin Costner

I just want to do everything. I don't want to sound soppy or too cliched, but that's the way it is.
Kylie Minogue

I like the feeling that I'm giving young women self-confidence. It sounds so cliched, but it can be very moving.
Shirley Manson

I really feel like the first day I went to drama school and I went up on stage, that I found my vocation. It's kind of a cliched thing to say but I really feel like it was what I was meant to do.
Diane Kruger

I think film had a terrible effect on horror fiction particularly in the 80s, with certain writers turning out stuff as slick and cliched as Hollywood movies.
Poppy Z. Brite

I was like a total cliched '80s child. I had Barbies, obviously, as well as My Little Ponies and Cabbage Patch Kids, but I used to destroy them. I used to draw all over their faces and cut off their hair.
Natalie Portman

I'm interested in what would normally be considered the worst aspects of commercial art. I think it's the tension between what seems to be so rigid and cliched and the fact that art really can't be this way.
Roy Lichtenstein

If you have ever been in a real tragic or sad situation, the words that come out are hopelessly inadequate and kind of cliched.
Erika Slezak

It would have been convenient to be gay. Just because of the grooming, the narcissism, stuff like that. But I have this kind of roaring heterosexuality. Traditional, uncomplicated heterosexuality, an almost cliched Robin Askwith thing.
Russell Brand

It's very cliched to go, 'You're not punk.' We don't care if we are, and we don't care if we aren't.
Joel Madden
