Probably more than anybody else, I loved Nat 'King' Cole as a performer - not only his singing but his piano playing. Whenever he had a new record come out, I'd get it and try to learn how he was playing. And he was one of the nicest people I'd ever met.

Bruce Forsyth

People said: 'You're too big to play football,' but I kept playing and it just happened that people have caught on to me and taken to me. The nicest thing I get from it is that I can be myself and people seem to like it.

One of the nicest things about taking your kids to a restaurant - Thai or Chinese for example - is having all the dishes in the middle of the table so that you can try a little bit of everything.

I have the nicest life in the world.

Alan Bean

I came to the United States to see what would happen in 2000 after working for 20 years in Australia and asked my agent to look out for the nasty roles because I'd become famous for playing the nicest man in Australia. So I wanted to play bad guys.

I was able to turn to classical music many people, who saw my programs live and on YouTube, and this is one of the nicest achievements I can have.

A lot of times we're being portrayed as thugs, but anyone who really knows us understand that we work hard, we diet hard, the commitment is full on. But alot of people don't see that. Some of the nicest and most respectful people I've ever met are in this sport. I truly believe that, and there's a lot of fighters that live by that.

Alexander Volkanovski

Work Time Respect

When I was growing up, I kept hoping that I wasn't really gay because I wanted to have children. I went through a long, tortured period, so the fact that I have been able to be true to myself and have a family has been the nicest surprise of my adulthood.

Andrew Solomon

My mother was an Earth Mother and the nicest person in the world.

Angelina Jolie

I represented women with unplanned pregnancies from age 14 to 40, and they range from living in their car to living in the nicest neighborhoods in town.

I love Harry Styles. He's one of the nicest people in the entire world.

To me, the nicest luxury would be to have a room where I could keep all my books in one place - and have space for more.

Annabelle Selldorf

I am being completely serious when I state this: Sage Northcutt might just be the nicest human being I have ever met in my life. He is sweet as can be. He doesn't have an evil bone in his body.

Ariel Helwani

I think Edmonton's Rogers Place is still the nicest arena I've ever been to.

Ariel Helwani

My mother was the nicest person in the world. I still have people coming to me to say how she was so warm, generous, and kind-hearted. She never washed her dirty linen in public. She always maintained her equations with people.

Arjun Kapoor

It turns out, the bikers and the truckers and people in dive bars are the nicest people in the world.

Ashley McBryde

I have been extremely lucky to have worked with directors and actors that have made a fabulous impact in Indian cinema and have received some of the nicest compliments ever.

Atul Kulkarni

I think I have the nicest fans in the world, and I quite like being surrounded by people if we're all feeling the same emotion in the same room.

When I was growing up, we were in a high income bracket, one of the highest. I was one of the first in high school to get a car. And I didn't have to wait for it to be a graduation present, either. We've probably got one of the nicest houses in Sacramento.

What would be the nicest thing I could say about Newt Gingrich? He may be one of the great supporters of the humanities, because you have people who don't want to study the social sciences, because it's not profitable, and now Newt, as the highest-paid historian in American history, may be an encouragement to people to study history.

Barney Frank

Science Men History

I'm the son of a vet and grew up with golden retrievers. Dogs have always loomed large in our lives but labradors have the nicest personalities: kind, loyal and caring.

Ben Fogle

Car Ya Wit

If you talk to anybody, among the first things you'll hear is, 'Steve Carell is the nicest guy in the world.' And he is. 'Steve Carell is the greatest guy to work with.' And he is. But all of that belies other aspects that are as true with him.

Bennett Miller

I like Columbus, Ohio, because it's Pleasantville for real. They have the nicest white people I have ever met, and I mean that!

Bobby Lee

The Afghans I met were some of the nicest and most honorable people I've ever encountered. There is a code called 'Pashtunwali,' so if someone invites you into their village, every last man will fight to protect your life. I was impressed by that.

Brad Thor

For the most part, the first thing people I meet that aren't Mormon say is, 'I grew up with a Mormon family. They're the nicest people I know.' So when I see these statistics that it's the most hated religion, I don't know where they're getting that from.

Brandon Flowers

Everybody's got a father. Even if he's not the nicest guy in the world.

Brian Azzarello

Robert Plant is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet, never mind rock star. He's so down to earth.

Brian Setzer

The nicest part of the prize, perhaps, is the effect on my friends and family. Each of them feels proud and happy to have the relationship with me that they do. In a way, it's as though they received an award too, and I like that very much.

Bruce Beutler

Probably more than anybody else, I loved Nat 'King' Cole as a performer - not only his singing but his piano playing. Whenever he had a new record come out, I'd get it and try to learn how he was playing. And he was one of the nicest people I'd ever met.

Bruce Forsyth

Geoff Johns, beyond being incredibly talented at what he does, he is one of the nicest human beings I have ever had the pleasure of working with, so he deserves everything that he gets.

Candice Patton

I'm a character actor and I get lost in these characters, so I think it's only recently that people have begun to connect dots and go, 'Oh, that's the same person that did this, this, this, this and this!' which I take as a compliment. One time somebody called me an illusionist, and that was the nicest thing anyone has ever said.

Carrie Preston

I'm not always the nicest person to meet, because I forget very easily that I'm an actress when I'm not working.

Catherine Deneuve

Andrew Lincoln has to be the nicest, ego-less lead actor that I've ever met in my life. His energy and temperament just falls over everyone.

Chad Coleman

I pride myself on being the nicest person in the room or being the nicest person to people.

Charlamagne tha God

Larry Hagman is one of the nicest people on the planet. He is so wonderful, so loving, so giving.

Charlene Tilton

I love to write just about more than anything, but there are times I have to force myself to sit down and work. I want to play with my daughter or watch a movie with my husband or go outside on the nicest day of the year. But if writing is going to be your job, you have to treat it like a job.

Chelsea Cain

The Internet is a big place where a lot of people can voice their opinions, and my mother chooses to pick fights with random people from all over the world who don't have the nicest things to say about me.

Chris Evans

I'm sure I was insensitive. I'm probably still a jerk at times. But my priority as a freshman was to be good in basketball and play a lot. Not to be the nicest person in the world. I was one-track-minded. I still am.

Christian Laettner

The enemies of the future are always the very nicest people.

Christopher Morley

The nicest thing about coming of age is that I can do whatever I like.

Cilla Black

Brian Cox is the nicest guy, but he's so arrogant.

Danny Boyle

The people who send us fan mail written in blood say the nicest things, so it doesn't freak us out too much.

Davey Havok

Rockers are the nicest people to photograph. They have no inhibitions.

David Bailey

We get the impression through film and TV that Americans are violent gangsters with guns or upper-middle-class people in romcoms. I really liked the people. They were really warm. They could have been Brits. I mean that in the nicest possible way.

David Jason

I noticed the people who drove the nicest cars were all in the garment business.

Do Won Chang

One of the nicest satisfactions you can have is to be able to give something back to your parents when they've given so much to you.

Dwight Gooden

I just remember Freddie Prinze, Jr. being the nicest guy in the world. To the point where at first I thought, 'Hmm - there's no way anyone could be this nice.' But he really is one of the coolest dudes I've ever met.

Elden Henson

There's nothing - I've bought everything I want. I don't like yachts or anything; you know, I'm not a yacht person, and I've got pretty much the nicest plane I'd want to have.

Elon Musk

I could do with losing a few pounds off my bum, but I enjoy my social life and going out for dinner far too much to have the nicest bum in the world.

Emily Atack

Jessica Lange is a sweetheart, the nicest lady in the world. She has a Poodle named Jack.

Evan Peters

People build up a picture of Johnny Depp as being some sort of weird pirate character. In reality he's incredibly nice... one of the nicest people I've ever met.
