To be honest, I miss the old Hollywood way of having some mystique about the star. ~ Nicole Scherzinger
Old Hollywood quotes by Nicole Scherzinger
But what I really like are old Hollywood movies. Very often I watch AMC. ~ Olivier Martinez
Old Hollywood quotes by Olivier Martinez
I love regal looks on the Oscars red carpet. I just love old-Hollywood glamour. I love hair pulled back off the face, beautiful makeup ... long sleeves are really elegant. The Oscars are not a place to be too flirty or fun or sexy. ~ Giuliana Rancic
Old Hollywood quotes by Giuliana Rancic
I like sundresses with cowboy boots, little shorts with big wedge heels and a big piece of turquoise. I also love classic, Old Hollywood romantic styles. I'm 'country girl meets city girl' circa 1930. ~ Kirsten Prout
Old Hollywood quotes by Kirsten Prout
Old Hollywood is just like a desert water in Africa. Hang around long enough and every kind of animal in the world will drift in for refreshments. ~ Will Rogers
Old Hollywood quotes by Will Rogers
I wish I was old Hollywood. ~ Darren Criss
Old Hollywood quotes by Darren Criss
I love the pictures of Old Hollywood, seeing the directors dressed in suits and ties. Even the grips would be wearing ties. But the biggest thing is when I was a kid, I couldn't wait to be an adult, and I think what happens with most guys is that no one wants to be an adult anymore. So they're dressing like kids. ~ Paul Feig
Old Hollywood quotes by Paul Feig
Of All the Gin Joints is one part cinematic history, one part old Hollywood weirdness, and one part handy basic bar guide, with a dash of romance and more than a few wry twists. Bailey and Hemingway prove themselves very entertaining cultural mixologists. ~ Sam Lipsyte
Old Hollywood quotes by Sam Lipsyte
Eventually, if your career goes higher and higher, that's just how it is, but it's a little frightening. When I was younger and I thought about being an actor, I thought of the old Hollywood style of glamour, and that was so beautiful and appealing to me. Now, if you want to be an actor, it's not the same. ~ Tinsel Korey
Old Hollywood quotes by Tinsel Korey
The factors that laid low so whooping and puissant an empire as the old Hollywood are many. I can think of a score, including the barbarian hordes of Television. But there is one that stands out for me in the post-mortem ... The factor had to do with the basis of movie-making: 'Who shall be in charge of telling the story.' ~ Ben Hecht
Old Hollywood quotes by Ben Hecht
I can live without money, but I cannot live without love. ~ Judy Garland
Old Hollywood quotes by Judy Garland
I'm kind of fixated with old Hollywood, like Marilyn Monroe. ~ Edy Ganem
Old Hollywood quotes by Edy Ganem
I look at a picture like Scarecrow and think, 'Jesus, how could they have let us make that?' I mean, if you used technology that old nowadays, it would look like old Hollywood. ~ Vilmos Zsigmond
Old Hollywood quotes by Vilmos Zsigmond
My style icons would be people like Brigitte Bardot and old Hollywood actresses who always look so stunning, cool and chic. I like classic and timeless looks. ~ Jessica Brown Findlay
Old Hollywood quotes by Jessica Brown Findlay
Sloane gave him a questioning look as Dex returned his phone to his pocket before walking over to the window and knocking on it. "What are you doing?" Sloane asked. "I'm wondering if this is bulletproof." "Why?" "Because I want to know if I can shoot my way through it before trying to jump out." He turned to the couch and pointed to it. "Do you think if I dramatically throw myself onto this like one of those old Hollywood starlets it'll have the same effect? I feel like I need to have some kind of bitch fit right now. ~ Charlie Cochet
Old Hollywood quotes by Charlie Cochet
I've always, especially through old Hollywood musicals, loved just to watch tap dancing; I adore it. I think it's fantastic. ~ Damien Chazelle
Old Hollywood quotes by Damien Chazelle
Today ... major actors and actresses develop their own projects or, at the very least, cherry-pick their roles carefully to suit not only their tastes but also whatever image they have cultivated to present to their public. Most major stars have their own production companies through which such projects are developed and even financed. While the biggest male stars of that time did in fact have their own production companies
Jimmy Stewart, Kirk Douglas, John Wayne, and Burt Lancaster, to name a few
and thus exerted creative and financial control over their careers, that was not the case with female stars. But Marilyn Monroe was about to change that. ~ J. Randy Taraborrelli
Old Hollywood quotes by J. Randy Taraborrelli
I watch an awful lot of old Hollywood movies - I'll devour anything with Bette Davis or Joan Crawford. My absolute favourite is 'Sunset Boulevard' starring Gloria Swanson. ~ Amanda Donohoe
Old Hollywood quotes by Amanda Donohoe
I was a young film student around the time of the new wave in film in the 1970s; old Hollywood was naff and over. For me, as a film student, I was going to see French and Italian cinema; American cinema was 'Easy Rider' and 'Taxi Driver.' Everything was gritty. ~ Gillian Armstrong
Old Hollywood quotes by Gillian Armstrong
The old Hollywood I knew is dead. It only exists now in still photographs and a few people's memories." - Olivia de Havilland ~ Jerry Vermilye
Old Hollywood quotes by Jerry Vermilye
I look to women who epitomize old Hollywood glamour, like Rita Hayworth. ~ Jennifer Lopez
Old Hollywood quotes by Jennifer Lopez
I think a lot of African-American kids don't have fathers to teach them how to dress, so you end up being taught by pictures in magazine and movies. You see cowboys, Indians, old Hollywood films, Cary Grant. It has an effect on you. ~ Andre Benjamin
Old Hollywood quotes by Andre Benjamin
I love hats, I'm such a fan of hats. You don't wear a fascinator everywhere you go, but there are ways to incorporate old Hollywood nuances into your looks today but also edge it up. ~ Lily Collins
Old Hollywood quotes by Lily Collins
I love doing eyes - my signature look is a cat eye. I think it's so feminine, and it reminds me of old Hollywood. ~ Mallory Jansen
Old Hollywood quotes by Mallory Jansen
There are so many things I'd like to do. I'd really like to be in a period piece that takes place in old New York or old Hollywood and wear those costumes and that makeup. ~ Jenny Slate
Old Hollywood quotes by Jenny Slate
I look to the women who epitomize old Hollywood glamour, like Rita Hayworth. She had a way of making sophisticated clothes look sexy without ever seeming sleazy or cheap. ~ Jennifer Lopez
Old Hollywood quotes by Jennifer Lopez
The truth is, I'm just a rough old New Zealander who has enjoyed many challenges in his life. ~ Edmund Hillary
Old Hollywood quotes by Edmund Hillary
A twenty-year-old man so in love with his mother he gave up five years of Sabbaths just to see her sit down for a change ~ Toni Morrison
Old Hollywood quotes by Toni Morrison
Sons, they have their own plans, but a daughter or granddaughter, they will love you forever and take care of you in your old age. ~ Craig Johnson
Old Hollywood quotes by Craig Johnson
The old oaken bucket, the iron-bound bucket, The moss-covered bucket, which hung in the well. ~ Samuel Woodworth
Old Hollywood quotes by Samuel Woodworth
Today's events are reminiscent of the Old Testament story of how the Israelites demanded a king over God's objection. They believed that a king would give them peace and security. The results proved otherwise. ~ Ron Paul
Old Hollywood quotes by Ron Paul
Keeley, Burke tells me your new trainer is a natural with the horses, with Travis and with cards as well."
"And I hear he's gorgeous,too," Mo added.
"Where'd you hear that?" Keeley demanded before she could bite her tongue into two.
"Oh,the word gets around in our snug little world," Mo said grandly. "And Shelley Mason-one of your kids? Her sister Lorna's in my Worl History class, a huge, bore by the way. The class, that is, not Lorna, who's only a small bore.Anyway, she picked Shelley up last week from your place and got a load of the Irish hunk, so I heard all about it. Which is why I'm planning on coming over as soon as I can and getting a load of him myself."
"Trevor, give your sister your pork chop so the can stuff it in her mouth."
"Dad." Giggling, Mo snatched another fry. "I'm just going to look. So, Keeley, is he gorgeous? I respect your opinion more than Lorna Mason's."
"He's too old for you," Keeley said, a bit more sharply than she intended and had Mo rolling her eyes.
"Jeez.I don't want to marry him and have his children."
Travis's laugh prevented Keeley from snapping back with something foolish. "Good thing. Now that I've found someone who comes close to replacing Paddy,I don't intend to lose him to Three Acres."
"okay." Mo licked salt from her fingertip. "I'll just ogle him. ~ Nora Roberts
Old Hollywood quotes by Nora Roberts
Then she did see it there - just a face, peering through the curtains, hanging in midair like a mask. A head-scarf concealed the hair and the glassy eyes stared inhumanly, but it wasn't a mask, it couldn't be. The skin had been powdered dead-white and two hectic spots of rouge centered on the cheekbones. It wasn't a mask. It was the face of a crazy old woman. Mary started to scream, and then the curtains parted further and a hand appeared, holding a butcher's knife. It was the knife that, a moment later, cut off her scream.
And her head. ~ Robert Bloch
Old Hollywood quotes by Robert Bloch
Getting fired can produce a particularly bountiful payday for a CEO. Indeed, he can 'earn' more in that single day, while cleaning out his desk, than an American worker earns in a lifetime of cleaning toilets. Forget the old maxim about nothing succeeding like success: Today, in the executive suite, the all-too-prevalent rule is that nothing succeeds like failure. ~ Warren Buffett
Old Hollywood quotes by Warren Buffett
Everything seems fine until you're about 40. Then something is definitely beginning to go wrong. And you look in the mirror with your old habit of thinking, 'While I accept that everyone grows old and dies, it's a funny thing, but I'm an exception to that rule.' ~ Martin Amis
Old Hollywood quotes by Martin Amis
If these men worshipped anything, they worshipped magic, which she supposed would be heresy back in Grey London. But then again, Christians worshipped an old man in the sky, and if Lila had to say which one seemed more real at the moment, she'd have to side with magic. ~ Victoria Schwab
Old Hollywood quotes by Victoria Schwab
Sometimes I watch the broad comedies coming out of Hollywood and I think, 'You know, sex is a big part of people's lives, but is that really the only thing men are ever concerned about?' People are more complicated than they appear in film or television. ~ Josh Radnor
Old Hollywood quotes by Josh Radnor
Ever since I arrived in America to promote "Stoker," I haven't had time to go and see it in a theater. The fact that I had to shoot twice as fast as I'm used to in Korea was the most challenging thing about my Hollywood experience. ~ Park Chan-wook
Old Hollywood quotes by Park Chan-wook
The old - like children - talk to themselves, for they have reached that hopeless wisdom of experience which knows that though one were to cry it in the streets to multitudes, or whisper it in the kiss to one's beloved, the only ears that can ever hear one's secrets are one's own! ~ Eugene O'Neill
Old Hollywood quotes by Eugene O'Neill
She opened it to the middle and pressed her face into the pages. She inhaled the scent of paper, ink and glue, and if they could make a perfume that smelled like old books, Allison would wear it every day of her life. ~ Tiffany Reisz
Old Hollywood quotes by Tiffany Reisz
The falling apart of a man's life should make more noise. It should startle passesrby with its Sturm and Drang. It ought to sound like the Parthenon crashing down. Not this ordinary, everyday kind of quiet ... He closed his eyes ... And still it was quiet, this falling apart of his life, as silent as the last beat of an old man's heart. A quiet, echoing thud, and then ... nothing. ~ Kristin Hannah
Old Hollywood quotes by Kristin Hannah
On the box he had a stack of magazines. Without seeing the covers, I knew they were pornography. Precious finds in the days before the internet. The combination of glossy pages and sperm is the smell of boyhood for men my age. You used to find them hidden in the bushes. I guess kids stole them from the shops and then were too scared to take them home. Sometimes they'd be damaged by rain or fire (masturbation and setting fire to things: the two great impulses of boyhood), the paper as brittle as an old man's skin. Meanwhile, as I found out years later, girls were reading 'romance novels' in the comfort of their bedrooms. Men, have you ever read those things? Damn. ~ James Hutchings
Old Hollywood quotes by James Hutchings
I loved old movies as a kid, so I always watched old movies. ~ Keith David
Old Hollywood quotes by Keith David
Hollywood has lost touch with their audience a long time ago. ~ John Ratzenberger
Old Hollywood quotes by John Ratzenberger
When evening fell and the grey twilight spread its dusky robe upon the waters, she stretched her arms out to the silent river that had known her sorrow and her joy. And the old river had taken her into its gentle arms, and had laid her weary head upon its bosom, and had hushed away the pain. ~ Jerome K. Jerome
Old Hollywood quotes by Jerome K. Jerome
Let's not forget, a lot of people have children for selfish reasons, Jessica said. In order to have someone to play with, or to take care of them when they're old. Or because they're bored and don't have anything to do...She wanted to adore her children in a way that she had never been adored. ~ Alethea Black
Old Hollywood quotes by Alethea Black
You're behaving generously, old boy, and, you know, one needs a devil of a lot of tact to get people to forgive one one's generosity. Fortunately women are frivolous and they very quickly forget the benefits conferred upon them. Otherwise, of course, there'd be no living with them.
[The back of beyond] ~ W. Somerset Maugham
Old Hollywood quotes by W. Somerset Maugham
Mainline American Protestantism, as is often the case, plodded wearily along as if nothing had changed. Like an aging dowager, living in a decaying mansion on the edge of town, bankrupt and penniless, house decaying around her but acting as if her family still controlled the city, our theologians and church leaders continued to think and act as if we were in charge, as if the old arrangements were still valid. ~ Stanley Hauerwas
Old Hollywood quotes by Stanley Hauerwas
Have you any old grudges you would like to pay,
Any wrongs laid up from a bygone day?
-Gather them now and lay them away
When Christmas comes.
Hard thoughts are heavy to carry, my friend,
And life is short from beginning to end;
Be kind to yourself, leave nothing to mend
When Christmas comes. ~ William Haines Lytle
Old Hollywood quotes by William Haines Lytle
What makes a narcissistic mother so scary? Her absolute power and controlling influence. A narcissistic mother is your only 'friend,' at least until you're old enough to go to school. ~ Koren Zailckas
Old Hollywood quotes by Koren Zailckas
Was not Hypatia the greatest philosopher of Alexandria, and a true martyr to the old values of learning? She was torn to pieces by a mob of incensed Christians not because she was a woman, but because her learning was so profound, her skills at dialectic so extensive that she reduced all who queried her to embarrassed silence. They could not argue with her, so they murdered her. ~ Iain Pears
Old Hollywood quotes by Iain Pears
'The Hollywood Reporter' was always in. You always got great tables. You always got great seats at screenings. You always got treated well if you were at the paper. ~ Robert Osborne
Old Hollywood quotes by Robert Osborne
We'll miss all of these.
Yes ... we'll miss the days of old, ways of doing things,
when we've been able to do everything, in the future. ~ Toba Beta
Old Hollywood quotes by Toba Beta
He was said to have the body of a twenty-five year old, although no-one knew where he kept it.
The point was that everyone else had someone, even if in Nobby's case it was probably against their will. ~ Terry Pratchett
Old Hollywood quotes by Terry Pratchett
Standing on your own feet, naturally, is as tiresome and dangerous as standing your ground; and when the wild dogs begin to circle grinning round you with their dripping tongues hanging out and you know that with mock servility they like to go for your toes first, why, then, you should stand on someone else's feet, or head if necessary. It is a point of faith for me never to be Hitler; he stood his ground in his own two shoes in his own little hole almost to the end, the fool. But I may disguise myself as any other animate or inanimate object in what follows. I can be eight lame women with falsies, eight cracked chamber pots, or -- let's get right to the point -- a gladiator who is actually constructed of old clothes, brooms, and a paper plate with a face daubed on in finger-paints, not to mention two vagrants inside each shirt-sleeve and pant-leg, moving Goliath's limbs at my say-so; but as long as you believe in the gladiator, you are whipped, and the Museum people will set out on your track, and then once they catch you, don't think I won't come study your exhibit until I can convince your own sweetheart that I am you come back from the dead. For I am Big George, the eternal winner. ~ William T. Vollmann
Old Hollywood quotes by William T. Vollmann
The Democrats are going the way of Burma Shave and Crisco - products everyone loved and had in their homes. But they got old. They didn't have anything new to say about the product, and after awhile, they died. ~ Jerry Della Femina
Old Hollywood quotes by Jerry Della Femina
But we are sailors - served on the Endeavor."

"Are you, now?" the ship's master asked skeptically. "Let me see yer hands."

The master examined Hadrian's palms, looking over the various calluses and rough places while grunting occasionally. "You must have spent most of your time in the galley. You've not done any serious rope work." He examined Royce's hands and raised an eyebrow at him. "Have you ever been on a ship before? It's certain you've never handled a sheet or a capstan."

"Royce here is a - you know - " Hadrian pointed up at the ship's rigging. "The guy who goes up there."

The master shook his head and laughed. "If you two are seamen, then I'm the Prince of Percepliquis!"

"Oh, but they are, Mr. Temple," a voice declared. Wyatt exited the forecastle and came jogging toward them. A bright white shirt offset his tawny skin and black hair. "I know these men, old mates of mine. The little one is Royce Melborn, as fine a topman as they come. And the big one is, ah …"

"Hadrian." Royce spoke up.

"Right, of course. Hadrian's a fine cook - he is, Mr. Temple."

Temple pointed toward Royce. "This one's a topman? Are you joking, Wyatt?"

"No, sir, he's one of the best."

Temple looked unconvinced.

"You can have him prove it to you, sir," Hadrian offered. "You could have him race your best up the ropes."

"You mean up the shrouds," Wyatt said, correcting h ~ Michael J. Sullivan
Old Hollywood quotes by Michael J. Sullivan
Tiny drops of fresh dung littered the top of the boulders, reminding her of the old apprentice trick of telling kits they were tasty berries. ~ Erin Hunter
Old Hollywood quotes by Erin Hunter
A couple of years after I arrived in Hollywood, everything that was Latino was fashionable, and years after, my thought is that we're not fashionable anymore. We're here to stay. ~ Antonio Banderas
Old Hollywood quotes by Antonio Banderas
That old star that you been wishin' on is shining mighty bright, but it's the fire inside your heart that's gonna lead you to the light. ~ Garth Brooks
Old Hollywood quotes by Garth Brooks
It was a reminder of the old truth that for tyranny to flourish all it required was the complicity of good men. ~ Claire North
Old Hollywood quotes by Claire North
I believe in magic. I believe our destiny is not carved in stone and that one thought is the seed to a new life or a different path.
I believe in the power of the cards to illuminate what you already know and to awaken the wisdom inside of you.
I believe how we think and experience life matters and I believe in the power of the cards to shift our thoughts and therefore create more positive experiences.
I believe in the magic of the cards to inspire us to let go of old ideas and restrictions. ~ Tonya Sheridan
Old Hollywood quotes by Tonya Sheridan
Survivors are damaged to different degrees by their experiences. This does not depend on what happened physically. A Survivor who has been raped will not necessarily be more damaged than a Survivor who has been touched. The degree of damage depend on the degree of traumatic sexualization, stigmatization, betrayal and powerlessness, the child has experienced. This in turn depends on a number of factors such as:
* who the abuser was;
* how many abusers were involved;
* if the abuser was same-sex or opposite sex;
* what took place;
* what was said;
* how long the abuse went on for;
* How the child felt and how she interpreted what was happening;
* if the child was otherwise happy and supported;
* how other people reacted to the disclosure or discovery of the abuse;
* how old the child was ~ Carolyn Ainscough
Old Hollywood quotes by Carolyn Ainscough
Sex doesn't start and stop in the bedroom. Sex is happening all around you. It's a dance. The world is full of it. It starts when you decide what to wear in the morning. It's there when you exchange a look with a stranger. The way you walk, the way you talk, the places you go and the things you do. Stop thinking sex is just taking your clothes off in the bedroom and fucking like an old married couple. Good sex is a lifestyle choice, not an occasion. ~ J.D. Hawkins
Old Hollywood quotes by J.D. Hawkins
