~By David Cronenberg ~

~By Brock Yates ~

~By Kate Clinton ~

~By Peter Steele ~
I think my recognizability ebbs and flows. I don't lead a particularly celebrity lifestyle or anything like that.

I've not been very visible in the last year or so and as a result hardly anyone stops me in the street.
~By James McAvoy ~
Well, that's the secret of commerciality, a simple style and you stick with it.
~By Les Baxter ~

~By Denise Richards ~

~By Maria Bartiromo ~
Adam Levine and I remade the Rolling Stones' classic Wild Horses, and it is right up my alley, that whole style. It has a style of its own but still stays very true to the classic arrangement, and I love it.
~By Alicia Keys ~

~By Sasha Cohen ~
Movement should be a counter, whether in action scenes or dialogue or whatever. It counters where your eye is going. This style thing, for me it's all fitted to the action, to the script, to the characters.
~By Samuel Fuller ~
Somebody said to me this morning, 'To what do you attribute your longevity?' I don't know. I mean, I couldn't have planned my life out better. By all accounts I should be dead! The abuse I put my body through: the drugs, the alcohol, the lifestyle I've lived the last 30 years!
~By Ozzy Osbourne ~

~By Lou Gramm ~
A full, rich drawing style is a drawback.
~By Bill Griffith ~
I'm living my life, not buying a lifestyle.
~By Barbara Kruger ~
It was a very bizarre experience for me, to get the songs together, go in there, and try to deliver them as I would perhaps in a live setting. But I realized that I couldn't take on that coffeehouse style that I came from and go in there and burn it up.
~By Jason Mraz ~
