Sam Shepard
American Playwright
I feel like the writers that I'm drawn to, the writers that I really cling to, are the writers who seem to be writing out of a desperate act. It's like their writing is part of a survival kit. Those are the writers that I just absolutely cherish and carry with me everywhere I go.
Quote examples
Fred Armisen
American Comedian
Everyone knows deep in their hearts that the drums are the coolest instrument, and that a band is only as good as its drummer. So I'm all for drum solos. I'm all for drummers hamming it up. I'm all for drummers standing up and kicking over the kit.
Quote examples
Phil Neville
English Athlete
To be a manager, you've got to gamble. Be brave, be bold, but be humble in everything that you do, and from the kit man to the physio to your best player to your youngest player, make sure you treat everybody the same.
Quote examples
Johanna Konta
British Athlete
I spend most of my life in sports kit, so it usually shocks people when they see me in casual clothing - let alone dressed up with make-up on. I've walked past people from my own family who don't recognise me.
Quote examples
Daniel Sturridge
English Athlete
As a footballer, you're stuck in a uniform - either in team kit or a team suit. I don't really get to show my personality in my job, so style is a chance to show people part of me they don't often see.

Bill Budge
American Businessman
On the robot kit, I can choose very boring parts or I can choose exciting and interesting parts. That is a reflection of my personality and the kinds of things I am interested in.
