I just felt all along that if I could get a certain amount of years in the league, have great years and still have my health when I walked away, that would be great.
Kevin Johnson

I never walked the streets of New York hoping to be a musical comedy star. For one thing, they would have thought I was too tall, because l was five feet eight and a half, and they were all little bitty things running around in the studio at that time.
Esther Williams

I only worked on Men of Honor for three weeks, but I walked away with so much. Because Bob is the kind of actor who gives you the opportunity to really go there. And we really had to go there. I mean, we were both playing drunks.
Charlize Theron

I put on the fat suit and went outside and walked around. I was really nervous about being found out, but nobody would even make eye contact with me. It really upset me.
Gwyneth Paltrow

I read and walked for miles at night along the beach, writing bad blank verse and searching endlessly for someone wonderful who would step out of the darkness and change my life. It never crossed my mind that that person could be me.
Anna Quindlen

I received the most fantastic welcome to the Broadway Theatre community. I walked on stage to tremendous applause and a long standing ovation, wondering when I was ever going to be able to say my first line!
Elaine Paige

I remember when I first walked into Mayer's cavernous office. You had to walk 50 yards to get to him, and in that time he could really study everything about you.
Esther Williams

I sort of kept my hand in writing and went to work for the Sierra Club in '52, walked the plank there in '69, founded Friends of the Earth and the League of Conservation Voters after that.
David R. Brower

I still like to keep tapes of the few minutes before the final take, things that happen before the session. Maybe it's superstitious, but I believe if I had done things differently - if I had walked around the studio or gone out - it wouldn't have turned out that way.
Ray Davies

I stopped and gazed on the little dull man who was being paid to be a teacher of teachers. I turned and walked to the door, slammed it closed with a bang, and broken glass crashed to the floor. There was uproar behind me in the class, which did not interest me at all.
Burl Ives

I think we just knew that we had a movie when Rachel walked in the room.
Ryan Gosling

I threw a lot of balls and walked a lot of batters. Not something I'm proud of, but something I learned from.
Randy Johnson

I used to dream of being normal. For me, if Kirk Douglas walked into the house, that was normal.
Jamie Lee Curtis

I walked along that slippery slope where if you fail through lack of faith, you sell your soul to the devil.
Michelle Shocked

I walked away from going to church when I was 8. I didn't set foot in another church until I was 28.
Billy Corgan

I walked away from the sport for 17 years, then started swimming again recently in a master's program.
Mark Spitz

I walked in and inherited a management group that I didn't know very well. They didn't know me, and we had a very short window to put together a credible recovery plan.
Bill Ford

I walked in thinking, 'I have ten movies under my belt and now they want me to go back to making commercials?' I said, if I do that, I want it to be funny.
Orlando Jones

I walked out of class one day and I never went back.
Burt Lancaster

I walked out of the Chinese restaurant with a fat check, a record deal, and a box of shrimp egg foo yung!
Solomon Burke
