And my dad wanted me to play the trumpet because that's what he liked. His idol was Louis Armstrong. My dad thought my teeth came together in a way that was perfect for playing the trumpet.
Jackson Browne

I liked math - that was my favorite subject - and I was very interested in astronomy and in physical science.
Sally Ride

They decided to establish a museum of modern art where works by contemporary artists would be shown. Mother was viewed as a very progressive person, and not everybody liked the paintings she bought.
David Rockefeller

I never cared for fashion much, amusing little seams and witty little pleats: it was the girls I liked.
David Bailey

I liked being in the spotlight.
Scott Caan

I also found child's play - stuff that was not considered serious, but goofy - was the stuff I liked to do, so I still do it as an adult.
Matt Groening

I've banged my head quite a bit. I liked Iron Maiden, Ozzy, AC/DC. And of course, Ratt and Poison.
Cameron Diaz

So I had to be careful. I recognized the responsibility that, whether I liked it or not, I had to accept whatever the obligation was. That was to behave in a manner, to carry myself in such a professional way, as if there ever is a reflection, it's a positive one.
Sidney Poitier

I'm not so funny. Gilda was funny. I'm funny on camera sometimes. In life, once in a while. Once in a while. But she was funny. She spent more time worrying about being liked than anything else.
Gene Wilder

I liked being a minor because you can't get into trouble. Now I just have to try and behave myself.
Avril Lavigne

I've heard my share of Van Halen. I never liked rock.
Brad Paisley

I wasn't the kind of person that liked waiting for autographs or following them, I just liked to go to the shows, study their records, driving many, many hours to different states to go to concerts.
Lenny Kravitz

I mean, I think I liked every band I ever played in because each band was different, each band had a different concept, and each band leader was different... different personalities and musical tastes.
Buddy Rich

I never liked the name Eldred. Since nobody knew me in New York, I just changed to my middle name.
Gregory Peck

I don't like overdubs, never liked them.
Lou Reed

I was sad that Corpse Bride was so short. I would've liked to have had her around for way longer. She doesn't actually have that many scenes.
Helena Bonham Carter

I loved fairy tales when I was a kid. Grimm. The grimmer the better. I loved gruesome gothic tales and, in that respect, I liked Bible stories, because to me they were very gothic.
Amy Tan

I really liked the Seattle movement.
Axl Rose

I often talked to Bing Crosby, and while I liked him, I never understood why he was so popular. To me his voice was just a gimmick.
Hedy Lamarr

I always thought marketing in general was an interesting kind of thing. I always liked commercials and billboards.
Carrot Top
