I have to get three pages done every day, and there's usually a point about 150 pages in where everything falls apart, where all the plans are for naught. The book has become something else, and I have a nervous breakdown, and then I submit to what the book has become, and I keep going, and that's a terrible and then a great time.

Andrew Sean Greer

As a kid I wanted to run away from home every time I got a scolding for being naughty but I never did. Knowing now what happens to unprotected kids on the streets I'm glad I didn't.

Have all the hopes of ages come to naught? Is life no more with noble meaning fraught?

Ada Cambridge

On 'Adam Ruins Everything' we do the broadest sketch comedy possible. We do stuff where you can see it immediately and know it's a joke - characters in big silly costumes; here's Uncle Sam and he's twiddling his fingers saying, 'Oh, I'm naughty.'

Adam Conover

You Yin Where

My voice went recently, never happened before, off like a tap. I had to sit in silence for nine days, chalkboard around my neck. Like an old-school mime. Like a kid in the naughty corner. Like a Victorian mute.

Adele

To be bowed by grief is folly; Naught is gained by melancholy; Better than the pain of thinking, Is to steep the sense in drinking.

Alcaeus

Wed Thinking Think

If I'm feeling in a naughty mood, I'll steal some of Mama's Creme De La Mer. If I'm feeling in a very naughty mood, I'll steal some of Daddy's Creme De La Mer. On the whole though, I'm very low maintenance.

Amber Le Bon

Whole Who Very

As a kid, I was hyperactive and the naughty one in school. I wouldn't listen to anyone and thought I knew best. At home, I was always breaking things and annoying everyone.

I have to get three pages done every day, and there's usually a point about 150 pages in where everything falls apart, where all the plans are for naught. The book has become something else, and I have a nervous breakdown, and then I submit to what the book has become, and I keep going, and that's a terrible and then a great time.

Time Great Art

When I first started working on 'Secret Diary,' I definitely felt like I needed to shape up. The idea of being in my knickers on TV was a great incentive! Now I try to eat right, and I go to Bikram yoga three or four times a week. I have my 'naughty' days, and I indulge in pizza and cake, but so what!

Ashley Madekwe

Work Time Great

I used to get in trouble a lot in school because I would write very naughty stories and poems in class.

Ashnikko

Write Would Very

I am very, very strict with my workout regimen; not so much with my food, because I'm always working out, so I can allow myself to be a bit more naughty!

Barbara Fialho

Work Men Food

I was very, very naughty in school.

Barun Sobti

Very T School

I got into a lot of trouble. Maybe that's why my parents didn't really like me and I didn't blend in with my family. I was always the naughty one.

Benjamin Clementine

Family Wit Why

As a bookish child in Calcutta, I used to thrill to the adventures of bad girls whose pursuit of happiness swept them outside the bounds of social decency. Tess of the d'Urbervilles, Emma Bovary and Anna Karenina lived large in my imagination. The naughty girls of Hollywood films flirted and knew how to drive.

Bharati Mukherjee

Imagination Happiness Wood

I was very naughty. That's the reason I didn't go very much to the university, because I was partying with my friends more than going to the university.

Steve Coogan does something for me. He is so naughty, but I quite fancy him.

Billie Piper

Thing Thin T

I am very enthusiastic and positive about 'Bailaras' which is a maiden movie under my home production - Naughty Men Production.

Binnu Dhillon

Positive Men Home

I'm the fussiest eater on earth; my husband despairs. I like chicken and pasta, and can't resist milk chocolate. I figure if you're going to do something naughty, make it really enjoyable.

Bonnie Langford

Art You Ya

Just because I look sexy on the cover of Rolling Stone doesn't mean I'm naughty.

Britney Spears

Use Us Tone

A 'naughty pickle' is how I'd best describe myself. I think fun and laughter is the whole point of life.

Celia Imrie

Life Whole Who

Prayer is good: but when used as a substitute for obedience, it is naught but a blatant hypocrisy, a despicable Pharisaism.

Charles Studd

It was a sort of weird, troubled road into acting because I had been a bit naughty in school until I did my Highers, and then I was like, 'Oh, I think I'm going to apply myself and surprise everyone.'

Chloe Pirrie

Could that have been what happened to the human race - a willing perversity that set at naught all human values which had been so hardly won and structured in the light of reason for a span of more than a million years?

Clifford D. Simak

Graffiti is usually a protest - ink on walls - or has a reason for being naughty or aggressive.

Cy Twombly

I went to a school called Tring Park School for the Performing Arts. I went because initially I was very naughty, and my mom thought if I was busy, I'd be better. And I didn't really do acting until later on in the school, with an amazing teacher. I left, went traveling, came back.

Daisy Ridley

At school, I was the classroom clown - I was always being thrown out for being naughty. Before I left, a teacher called me in and suggested I became an actor.

David Harewood

I think it's great to see how they've grown up, not just as actors but as people. They're still very much the same kids that I met many years ago. They've grown up and they are funny and wicked and naughty and bright, and I think as actors their work is just getting better and better. They've blossomed.

David Heyman

I loved the idea of playing this naughty old bag, offering her own explanation. It's my idea of heaven.

Diana Rigg

I always thought of photography as a naughty thing to do - that was one of my favorite things about it, and when I first did it, I felt very perverse.

Diane Arbus

I was often very, incredibly naughty, and if I didn't come home at tea time I used to be sent to bed without any dinner. But people used to bring me things: I was better fed in bed.

Diane Cilento

Blank House was exactly a nice empty sheet where nothing was accountable because you were so naughty that you were in Blank House.

Diane Cilento

If I'm naughty, I'm grounded for two weeks or Mum takes my phone and my laptop because she knows I can't live without them. Sometimes I'll say, 'Mum, do you just want to take my laptop?' because I can still use the Internet on my phone. But now she's going to read this and see what I've been doing.

Dionne Bromfield

I am in love with girls that are bad and naughty and badass, and a little selfish, but I like to watch from a respectful distance!

Dreama Walker

People in general are used to seeing me as the naughty girl because that's what they've always cast me as.

Eartha Kitt

I try genuinely, when I'm playing a character, to not judge them and just to inhabit someone as how one sees them. That being said, you also want to make sure that you don't blur the edges of people too much because humans are naughty and complicated beings.

Eddie Redmayne

I am bad mannered, naughty, and one of those few people who lands up in controversies, but I guess that's expected of me.

Ekta Kapoor

If thou must love me, let it be for naught except for love's sake only.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Little girls as children, I think, are expected to behave better. If a boy's naughty at school, he's a little bit cheeky and mischievous. If a girl's naughty, she's trouble.

Emily Berrington

Crime is naught but misdirected energy.

Emma Goldman

A surging, seething, murmuring crowd of beings that are human only in name, for to the eye and ear they seem naught but savage creatures, animated by vile passions and by the lust of vengeance and of hate.

Emma Orczy

I get on very well with Denis Naughten, absolutely.

Enda Kenny

Naughtiness is a part of growing up. It starts when you're a toddler and never ends.

Engelbert Humperdinck

Probably spending 12 years at boarding school - comedy became a survival gene. But I think some people are funny right off the bat, as soon as they can speak or be naughty.

Eric Idle

Queen Latifah used to help me out with my kids, because while we were all out on tour - Public Enemy, Naughty By Nature, Queen Latifah, Heavy D - when Public Enemy went onstage, I didn't have anybody solid to watch my kids. So, Latifah would help me out.

Flavor Flav

Let's be naughty and save Santa the trip.

Gary Allan

I was quite naughty at school.

Gemma Arterton

I have written 30,000 words in a month - think of it - 30,000! I hope I am putting the right number of naughts: an average of a thousand words a day! For thirty days!

George A. Moore

All thought is naught but a footnote to Plato.

George Santayana

My wife, a schoolteacher, very disciplined. If you think I'm tough, trust me, and wait till you see when the children are on the naughty step. It's hilarious. So we decided that I'm going to work like a donkey and provide amazing support for the family.

Gordon Ramsay

I was a good Indian girl, but naughty in that I would often sneak out of the back door and into the garden and go off with my friends when I should have been at home cooking or cleaning.
