Anyone interested in the world generally can't help being interested in young adult culture - in the music, the bands, the books, the fashions, and the way in which the young adult community develops its own language.
~By Margaret Mahy ~
Now, I'll tell you something that might interest you. Casino Royale was the first Bond book that Ian Fleming ever wrote. And he couldn't get anybody to touch it, to publish it - he couldn't do anything about it at all. Nobody wanted to know.
~By Val Guest ~

~By David Friedman ~
I'm a big fan of editing and keeping only the interesting bits in.
~By Sarah Vowell ~
Survivor has been such a hit, and out of that have come so many interesting stories from people that we don't see on the big screen. We have helped make them incredible celebrities.
~By Mary Hart ~

~By Kent McCord ~

~By Jesse Eisenberg ~

~By Gene Tunney ~
Empirical interest will be in the facts so far as they are relevant to the solution of these problems.
~By Talcott Parsons ~
I never did buy things on credit, I always paid for 'em, because I can't see much difference in paying for something and just waiting a week and pay interest on it; that looks foolish to me.
~By Howard Finster ~

~By Lester B. Pearson ~

~By Britney Spears ~
Ants are good citizens, they place group interests first.
~By Clarence Day ~
I may find something that looks interesting and then go on to alter the recipe by adding spices, things of my own. I also look for time-saving recipes, dishes that can be prepared ahead and stored.
~By Paul Lynde ~
My interest in his new toy, the Theremin, isn't very big. It simply does not fit into my way of playing music. I do not want to fiddle around with my hands in the air.
~By Klaus Schulze ~

~By Stephen Greenblatt ~
I used to be interested in Windows NT, but the more I see it, the more it looks like traditional Windows with a stabler kernel. I don't find anything technically interesting there.

~By Ruben Blades ~

I'm more influenced by my own interests than anyone else's. Writers have to entertain themselves, or they can't entertain anyone else.
~By Laurell K. Hamilton ~
Everybody gets typecast in movies, but you have to make wise choices. I'd say around 90 percent of movie casting is about the way you look, so you have to fight that. If producers had their way, I'd only be in action films, but I'm interested in a more varied career than that.
~By Famke Janssen ~

~By Tabitha Soren ~
President Bush's proposal to focus our resources on sending humans to Mars is intriguing, but it is not the most compelling reason that Americans ought to focus our interest on the Red Planet.
~By Jay Inslee ~

~By Morris West ~
In Holland and Spain and France, where so many of us come from, people aren't interested in the sex lives of their players. We don't hear these stories - even in Italy where the media is right on top of football.
~By Dennis Bergkamp ~
I get a script and it's really interesting with scripts, because you never really know. It's paper and it could be great or awful. Even scripts that are good could end up not working.
~By Amanda Bynes ~
I have absolutely zero interest in politics.
~By Jerry Hall ~
With the requests of some he complied, and has published a discourse, delivered before the Society for recovering drowned persons, which may be justly pronounced one of the most beautiful and interesting sermons in the English language.
~By John Strachan ~
That subject has lost its one time appeal to economists as our science has become more abstract, but my interest has even grown more intense as the questions raised by the sociology of science became more prominent.
~By George Stigler ~
I found that there is very little interest in Washington for true election reform. That neither the White House nor either house of the Congress seems to be as committed to guaranteeing democratic participation in this country as we seem to be in other countries.
~By DeForest Soaries ~
Popstars really draws you in. It's fascinating. It's interesting to watch people thrown together in that kind of a situation. Even if the egos weren't involved and they weren't trying to be world famous. It's the Real World, only better.
~By Scott Patterson ~
The dog is almost human in its demand for living interest, yet fatally less than human in its inability to foresee.
~By Robert Falcon Scott ~

~By Clyde Tombaugh ~
The whole schizophrenia angle interested me. When I first started working on it, I thought I would play up that angle more than I ended up doing. The religious aspect of the story was also a draw.
~By Chester Brown ~
I dare say that a majority of the American people think that having a fair hearing on an issue of importance in our relations with Mexico is extremely important to our national interest, as well as theirs.
~By William Weld ~
It may interest you to know that my breakup with Terry and this mystery did not happen concurrently in real life. That is a writer's device, which places Gabriel under even greater pressure when the mystery begins to reveal itself.
~By Armistead Maupin ~
The studios don't seem to foster good writing. They're not so interested in that, but they're more interested in what worked most recently. They're definitely very serious about making money, and that's not a wrong thing, but you don't have to make money the same way all the time.
~By Bill Murray ~
The government must do all it can to help reduce interest rates for business.
~By Pauline Hanson ~

~By George Eads ~
The more money an American accumulates, the less interesting he becomes.
~By Gore Vidal ~

~By Alva Noto ~
I believe that there are many interesting projects that are potentially possible for me other than game music, and therefore in my mind there are several things that are being contemplated.
~By Nobuo Uematsu ~
I appreciated and respected kids who asked questions. They didn't do it to get attention, but because they were interested. Kids who didn't want to look dumb seemed like scared little rabbits.
~By Henry Cole ~
The superior man makes the difficulty to be overcome his first interest; success only comes later.
~By Confucius ~
Interestingly, the best way to promote intimacy is to demand it.

~By Ryan Phillippe ~

~By Earl Blumenauer ~
Every thoughtful and kind-hearted person must regard with interest any device or plan which promises to enable at least the more intelligent, enterprising, and determined part of those who are not capitalists to cease to labor for hire.
~By Leland Stanford ~
In my experience with women that I've dated and my wife now, is you have to know what they care about. And even if you aren't a huge fan of it, you still have to have interest in it and it has to be genuine because women do it for men all the time.
~By Tim Meadows ~
Critics? How do they happen? I know how it happened to me. I would send a poem or story to a magazine and they would say this doesn't suit our needs precisely but on the other hand you sound interesting. Would you be interested in doing a review?
~By Leslie Fiedler ~
There is always drama and there will always be drama, but its the way its presented in my head that makes it so interesting. Everyone gets their time in the middle of the drama.
~By Josh Schwartz ~

~By Sol LeWitt ~
An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.
~By Benjamin Franklin ~

~By Ruth Pitter ~
