There's many law changes, policy changes I can point to. But a lot of my work has also been to name the issue that no one else named - to spotlight it, to advocate for it. That's where all advocacy begins. I've asked different questions. I've raised different issues.

Ayanna Pressley

I prefer to be out of the spotlight, to be honest. I've always been that kind of personality.

AB de Villiers

The abortion industry and their workers are under unique pressure and constantly in the spotlight because abortion is so controversial, and people on both sides are considerably passionate. This isn't a typical nine-to-five job. It's on a whole other level of intensity.

Abby Johnson

When I left Planned Parenthood, I was extremely nervous. I was immediately thrown into the media spotlight, and I had no idea what it was going to be like to be a public figure in the pro-life movement.

Abby Johnson

I grew a very early distaste for fame and glamour because I saw what the spotlight and attention can do to you as a family, so to speak.

Abhay Deol

When you have a celebrity who is willing to shine his personal spotlight on the non-profit and can also speak articulately about the mission, that's really the best of both worlds.

Adam Braun

I feel like the type of music I'm making and who I am, people expect me to do well, but not be in the main spotlight.

AJ Tracey

I've never really aspired to the spotlight; I just wanted to do music, which is kind of weird because music comes with that spotlight.

Alessia Cara

At any moment, one company stands in the spotlight of the middle ring in the stock market's never-ending circus. It may not be the biggest corporation in the world, or the most profitable, but somehow it both mirrors and leads the market's broader action.

Alex Berenson

The world awaits Beijing's hosting of the 2008 Olympics, an occasion which will bring into the global spotlight the dramatic advances China is making in enhancing the quality of life for its people.

Alexander Haig

What I do for a living puts me in the spotlight.

Ali Larter

As adults, when we attend to something in the world we are vividly conscious of that particular thing, and we shut out the surrounding world. The classic metaphor is that attention is like a spotlight, illuminating one part of the world and leaving the rest in darkness.

Alison Gopnik

I think it's huge to set a good example. Whether you like it or not, as a professional athlete you are always going to be projected out into that spotlight of judgement. People are always going to judge every single thing we do and I think it's cool to just be real with yourself.

Aljamain Sterling

Being a young woman is difficult enough, but add to that the pressures of Hollywood's spotlight, and you have a lot to navigate.

Amanda de Cadenet

I have never hid my spiritual roots. They just weren't something that came under the spotlight.

Amar'e Stoudemire

There's a blessing that you're in a spotlight, but people follow you and want to keep asking you questions - it's just overwhelming sometimes.

Amber Liu

I don't want to be in the spotlight, ever! I don't know why I got in this profession!

Ana de Armas

I love playing in the spotlight... I feel like that's motivation for everyone.

Andrew Wiggins

It's really fun to have the spotlight and feel ready for it. Not in a conceited way. But just like, 'Man, I think I'm going to give you what you need.'

Andy Grammer

I was never one to seek out the spotlight. I am kind of a private person, so I don't miss that part of show business at all.

Angela Cartwright

Visibility has an effect on those who are privileged; it brings more privilege, and on those who are marginalized, it brings more marginalization, because it also brings a spotlight onto them where they're at, in the hood or in certain places that are less tolerable.
