My parents came to America in the late 1960s because my father studied for a Ph.D. in Indiana. My mother joined him later. We had ancestors who came over at the turn of the century. One worked in a laundry, as is typical of Chinese-American immigrants.

It's sweet that I don't have to do my laundry.

I'm pretty obsessive-compulsive, and I'm very fast. I tend to not write for a long period of time until I can't not write, and then I write first drafts in gallops. I won't eat right. I forget to do my laundry.

I try to keep Alaska fresh by doing laundry and bathing at least once a month.

Do I post pictures of my overflowing laundry basket or the dirty dishes by the sink? No, I'll probably post a pic of the finished meal looking pretty. We're all skewed in what we show.

Housework never really bothered me... what bothered me about it later was that it was expected to be your life... when you're a housewife, you are constantly interrupted. You have no space in your life. It isn't the fact that you do the laundry.

Alice Munro

Work Space Life

I try to do a variety of physical activities. I spin, take classes at Barry's Boot Camp, go to the gym, use home DVD's of ChaLEAN Extreme workouts, which I think are brilliant, and I run around after my three girls. Also, let's be honest. The amount of laundry I do is an exercise in and of itself!

I know how to separate my own laundry.

UN T Separate

Sunday is the day I do my laundry and clean. I'm always trying to get rid of stuff. Truthfully? I have a housekeeper that comes once a month, and I tend not to make things too messy for her. But I do have clothes everywhere.

I know what it's like to finish the laundry and to look in the basket five minutes later and it's full again. I know what it's like to pull all the groceries in, and see the teenagers run through, and all of a sudden, all of the groceries you just bought a few hours ago are gone.

If I don't do laundry today, I'm gonna have to buy new clothes tomorrow.

Everything's always got to be character-based. We know we can't, if we're sitting in the editing room, watch the sequence for more than 20 seconds without a character having a point of view or moving the action forward; my brain just shuts down, or I start thinking about my laundry.

I like to cook chicken adobo and do my own laundry.

Actually going to the supermarket to get my own groceries was a revelation. I'd never had to fill the fridge before, do my laundry, put petrol in my car. It was scary - but there was a kind of joy about it, too.

We are coming down from our pedestal and up from the laundry room.

I do laundry, but my bags from the last race will sit there until the very last minute that I have to do laundry again.

Marriage is about the most expensive way for the average man to get laundry done.

I'd sleep in a little, work out, do laundry, run errands, buy presents for people with birthdays coming up. I like it when I don't have to be anywhere, and anything I do is my choice.

An actress once advised me, 'Make sure you do your own laundry - it will keep you honest.'

Celeste Ng

I quite like doing laundry. I find it quite like relaxing.

Charli XCX

Feminism is an entire world view or gestalt, not just a laundry list of women's issues.

Charlotte Bunch

I lived in a little shack in Santa Monica, and I was working on 'The O.C.' and when it started airing, I took my laundry down to the laundromat like I always had, and so many people along the two blocks I walked and in the laundromat stopped me and asked me for photographs.

Chris Carmack

I was raised by very traditional Southern parents with Southern manners. You don't air your dirty laundry to people that aren't your family or your friends. Why would I ever want to portray myself as anything other than together?

Dakota Fanning

I am a great procrastinator. When the writing is going really well, the laundry piles up.

Dana Spiotta

I was doing comedy in laundry mats in 1992, literally where I would bring a little gorilla amp and a lapel mike and just start performing.

I mean, it's a bit of a double-edged sword being a celebrity and being an actor as I'm sure you know. Your public laundry is constantly aired out and I thought that maybe I could do some good.

Daniel Baldwin

The conscious mind can only pay attention to about four things at once. If you've got these nagging voices in your head telling you to remember to pick up the laundry and call so-and-so, they're competing in your brain for neural resources with the stuff you're actually trying to do, like getting your work done.

Daniel Levitin

For me, being successful meant not having to do my laundry at a laundromat and not having a second job.

Darby Stanchfield

One day, my brother had his friend over, and they were in the laundry room, and I stuck my puppet's head around the door and then started chasing them with it and made my puppet laugh very scary. It was really funny.

Darci Lynne Farmer

Vacuuming is great. I do the laundry. I love washing machines. I'm the maid in my house.

Denis Leary

I'm really good at laundry, and I have no problem cleaning the kitchen.

Denis Leary

I made a dollar a day sweeping a laundry out. Then we made a record that was number two in Los Angeles. We got so excited hearing it on the radio that Carl threw up.

Dennis Wilson

When I was 11 years old, my family had to leave East Germany and begin a new life in West Germany overnight. Until my father could get back into his original profession as a government employee, my parents operated a small laundry business in our little town. I became the laundry delivery boy.

Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Room service is nice. Ooh-la-la, a hotel. At home, it's laundry and school lunches.

Dolores O'Riordan

We should all do what, in the long run, gives us joy, even if it is only picking grapes or sorting the laundry.

E. B. White

Women basically want the same thing - a good passionate story, a great fantasy - and for our partners to do the laundry and the washing up.

E. L. James

When I lived in Boston, I had an office that I rented because I found it wonderful to go away from my house to work: It was so quiet, and I couldn't go to the refrigerator or do the laundry.

Elizabeth Berg

If there were a category in the Olympics for laundry, my mother would have been a gold-medal winner.

Elizabeth Berg

I wash my own dishes; I do my own laundry. I'm not a glamorous person at all, not at all.

Elvis Duran

Everyone knows the best time to do laundry is later.

Emily Hampshire

I'm lazy and I do procrastinate about laundry!

Emily Hampshire

If everyone is good at something different, assigning chores is easy. If your partner is great at grocery shopping and you are great at the laundry, you're set. But this isn't always - or even usually - the case.

Emily Oster

You don't realize how hard it is to live on your own. But there's no mom to do your laundry, and make you dinner and to do things for you, and you don't think about little things like buying paper towels and salt.

Emma Roberts

I grew up in New Orleans. I had just moved into my dorm at the University of New Orleans, and I was doing laundry, and my mom called me, like, 'We've got to evacuate. There's a hurricane's coming.'

Frank Ocean

An income tax form is like a laundry list - either way you lose your shirt.

Fred Allen

I watched a lot of television as a kid, and the suburbs to me - that was exotic! Like, a mom and dad who lived in the same house and had jobs and cooked breakfast at the same time every morning and did laundry in a washing machine and dryer? That was like, 'Woah! Who are they? How do you get to be like that?'

Gaby Hoffmann

Give me a laundry-list and I'll set it to music.
