I think it is easier for thinner people to build on a frame once you get lean muscle. I get bored lifting weights at the gym, and it isn't enough as your body becomes stiff. So I train in different ways such as core training, cardio with weights, playing sports such as tennis, cycling, swimming and running 10 km once a week.

Arjun Rampal

Congress needs to toughen the laws protecting elections and make clear that anyone interfering with democracy will pay a stiff price.

Adam Cohen

I've played dinner theaters. I'm a working stiff.

Adam West

If two scientists are giving their papers at a symposium, and one of them is just naturally better at talking to the public or talking to a group of people, that scientist is liable to get more attention - in fact, I'm told that they do get more attention - than the one who's a little more stiff about it. Well, that's not good for science.

Alan Alda

I grew up in southern Africa but was born in England, so my family was afflicted with the stiff upper lip of the British. When coupled with the violence we saw as children, that can be a fatal combination. Fortunately, I have an outlet for trauma in my writing.

Alexandra Fuller

I was putting on a stiff upper lip and trying to fulfill the obligations I thought were demanded of me, taking over my father's role of taking care of my mother... and having to be the recipient of her confessions and emotions but of a delusional nature.

Allen Ginsberg

The photograph of the Queen sitting stiffly across the table from Glasgow resident Susan McCarron is so natural and expressive that it looks utterly fake. It looks like an artist's portrait, complete with symbolism, humour and poignancy. No wonder the palace and the press have interpreted it in such different ways.

Amanda Foreman

I think that the stiff competition for places is a positive thing.

Andre Schurrle

As an older lineman, if you start to sit around, you get stiff. You get tired. Things start to set in.

Andrew Whitworth

I only make storyboards for action scenes. Once you make a storyboard, you don't film; it can be a stiff move.

Anton Corbijn

Arjun Rampal

I studied in Britain and spent great moments of my life there as a student living in Belsize Park. I admire the British trait of the stiff upper lip in the face of adversity. My wife studied in Britain, too, and both of us have many friends there.

Asif Ali Zardari

I like jeans, but I think in 100 years it's going to be crazy when we look back at the fact that everyone, every day for about 60 years straight, wore stiff blue pants as their default. Why?

B. J. Novak

I'm not one to complain about illness. I suppose I have a bit of a stiff upper lip. I just tend to get on with things.

Ben Fogle

Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened.

Billy Graham

Often you see people on the red carpet with tight up-dos, but that makes me feel stiff.

Blake Lively

Just as actors are afraid of child audiences because they're so honest, I would be scared stiff of going before the big folks.

Bob Keeshan

Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind.

Bruce Lee

When I was living in Los Angeles, I always booked a moisturizing milk-and-honey massage the day before flying to Spain. It was heaven - I never got dry plane skin or felt stiff from sitting in one position.

Carolina Herrera

I've always been slightly self-conscious as an actor, and I guess that sometimes reads as pomposity. Starting when I was 30, I somehow gave off an impression at an audition that had them mentally put me in a three-piece suit or put an attache case in my hand. If there was a stiff-guy part, the director would brighten up when I came in.

Charles Kimbrough

Where I went to school, Eton College, we had to wear dark trousers, a tailcoat, and a stiff, starched collar every day, and that was fine with me: Part of the reason I wanted to go there was because I've always loved dressing up.
