I enjoy spending time at home or going out for a quiet meal in a restaurant.
Jamie Redknapp

I had been plunged into a different world. I found myself spending half my time answering weird questions on book tours in the Midwest. People would stand up and explain to me the situation in their office and ask me whether they should resign or not.
Kazuo Ishiguro

I had friends but I was spending a great deal of my time alone and for me that was vital because there's an awful lot you learn about yourself when you're alone.
Kate Bush

I hate the industry even more now, no bands get nurtured anymore. Labels only spend money promoting acts they know will be Top Ten. I find it offensive spending $2 million on a video.
Siouxsie Sioux

I have learned so much from working with other poets, travelling and reading with them, spending days discussing poems in progress. There is the sense that we are all, as writers, part of something which is more powerful than any of us.
Helen Dunmore

I have serious concerns about whether it's prudent to give any foreign country substantial leverage over the U.S. economy. Instead of spending $80 billion on important programs here at home, we're sending this money overseas just to pay interest on our debt.
Tim Johnson

I haven't reported my missing credit card to the police because whoever stole it is spending less than my wife.
Ilie Nastase

I just broke up with my boyfriend, and I've been spending more time alone than I'd like.
Lucinda Williams

I like spending time at home. In Paris, people drop by and have a bite to eat, or they drop by and watch Friends on TV. I take my dog to the office there, and I walk to work sometimes.
Marc Jacobs

I never minded George Steinbrenner spending obscene amounts of money to put the best product on the field.
Jay Mohr

I never went to a John Wayne movie to find a philosophy to live by or to absorb a profound message. I went for the simple pleasure of spending a couple of hours seeing the bad guys lose.
Mike Royko

I prefer surveying for a week to spending a week in fashionable society even of the best class.
Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards

I really feel kind of guilty spending 80 million dollars. People are starving in the world.
Penelope Spheeris

I spent 20 years of my life building up Queen, and now I'm spending years of my life trying to get away from it.
Brian May

I studied for my degree in London and consequently ended up spending five years away from Cornwall. I deliberately moved away from the coast to experience a different way of life.
John Dyer

I then remained in Berlin until Dec. 1938, spending my time between pictures at my villa on the Riviera.
Pola Negri

I think Bush has capitulated on affirmative action and government spending. Apart from that, he's OK, I guess. About the same as Howard Dean.
Peter Brimelow

I think it's the broadest source of dissatisfaction amongst Republicans, out-of-control spending.
Pat Toomey

I think that songwriting changed when groups started spending more time in the studio.
Ray Davies

I want to increase our spending on research and development by 25%. That's something the U.S. does very well. That dynamism alongside a welfare state in the European community - that's the synthesis I want to achieve.
Jose Luis Rodr’guez Zapatero
