Across Central Virginia, the traditions of Thanksgiving bring us closer together with those we love. We gather with family and close friends, we share memories and laughter, and we give thanks for the profound blessing of living in the United States.
Abigail Spanberger
I have a lot of good girlfriends that I really love, but you know, most of my close friends are men.
Aisha Tyler
In the evenings, I like to go for dinners with my close friends.
Akhil Akkineni
My work is my hobby and if I am not on the sets, I am at home with a bunch of very close friends.
Akshaye Khanna
I am very proud to become a BMW Brand Ambassador. BMW is like a second family, and over the past years we not only enjoyed great times together at the track, but we have also become close friends.
Alex Zanardi
I ask my close friends to give me feedback.
Ali Fazal
I have a few close friends with whom I can practice speaking Italian, but I mostly maintain fluency through reading.
Amanda Knox
When I'm writing, I am lost in my book. Except family and close friends, I don't care about what critics, publishers or readers might think.
Amish Tripathi
Neha and I were part of a very small, tightly-knit group of close friends. Others in the group like Yuvraj Singh and Gaurav Chopra got married. That left only two of us. So we decided to get married.
Angad Bedi
Due to my serious kind of roles, people - apart from my close friends and family - did not know the real me.
Arbaaz Khan
I tend to jot down moments, lines, interactions that don't really make any sense. I try and explain these scattered notes to my close friends, and they become more and more logical. I see screenwriting as a bit like a math equation which I have to solve.
Asghar Farhadi
My close friends are not from the industry. They are those I went to Lower Kindergarten with.
Asin
I have many close friends who are religious Zionists and I think if we can be good friends, work together and serve in the army together, then there is no reason we should not be part of the same party.
Ayelet Shaked
I do yoga every day, some sport, have a meal once a day, eat some fruit, and drink one glass of wine. And once a month I gather together my close friends. But my wife and I do not like conspicuous luxury.
Bidzina Ivanishvili
I loved my 17 years with R.E.M., but I'm ready to reflect, assess and move on to a different phase of my life. The four of us will continue our close friendship, and I look forward to hearing their future efforts as the world's biggest R.E.M. fan.
Bill Berry
The gossip mill on tour is always turning. I have to be a little careful about what I tell guys who I don't consider close friends, because even though they might not spread it to other players, they'll usually tell their wives. And once the wives get it, it's gone.
Boo Weekley
I have several close friends who are insomniacs. Over the years, I've heard their stories about being up in the middle of the night, completely awake. I see them yawn at 11 A.M. and know that, regardless of what they are doing, they'd probably rather be in bed sleeping. I've always had sympathy for them, but I've never really understood it.
Brad Feld
I have very few friends. I have a handful of close friends, and I have my family, and I haven't known life to be any happier.
Brad Pitt
I'm not invited to the Vanity Fair dinner where they watch the Oscars - or even the Oscars themselves - so I sit at home and watch it with a bunch of close friends.
Brett Ratner
I enjoyed being involved in team sports and making close friendships.
Brian McBride
My father was the president of the Hearst Corporation, and my parents were close friends of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, and they all had pugs.
I'm not going to let everyone in, but when I do open up, I trust you. I let you fully in. My close friends, my family, and everyone around me can really appreciate it, and sometimes it's not the easiest to open up to people.
I had a lot of conversations with my family, my close friends, with my pastor, with God, and kind of came to a revelation that maybe I should be honest with myself about who I am and let that person - this woman who has lived inside me for my entire life - finally have an opportunity to live.
I'm close with my parents. I have a lot of acquaintances, but my very good close friends are few I can count my very good friends on one hand. And that's how I like it to be.
Over the years, I have created close friendships with many successful men, many of whom I have made a lot of money for through deals that I brought to them or business counsel that I have provided.
I've got a strong family, close friends and hobbies outside football that keep my feet on the ground.
Expats are a self-selecting group of outgoing, confident people - if you're not those things, you probably don't choose this adventure - and the lifestyle is very conducive to making fast, close friends.
I don't have any close friends that are my competitors. I think that's just the nature of being a sprinter.
I don't know anybody that is like super close friends but also competing for the same medal. That would be kinda odd.
Thankfully, I have my mom and a small group of close friends who are there for me 24/7 and whom I can trust and depend on.
I married someone whom I was close friends with first. I think that was a really good move.
The single most important factor in our long-term happiness is the relationships we have with our family and close friends.
All my close friends are normal dudes and then I will hang out with some girl who is a musician and everyone thinks that's what it's all about.
I sat in the green room at Radio City Music Hall for the 2006 NFL Draft. At my table, I was encircled by my parents, brother, agent, former coaches and close friends.
A lot of close friends and family members have got married through online dating. I don't think it would be wise for me to do it.
Growing up, I was the awkward, chubby kid. I had a few close friends, but I was the first one to be bullied.
At every stage of my career I have had interesting and cordial colleagues, some of whom are close friends.
If you ask any of my close friends, they know I always complain that I never get to play my age.
Someone who's fake is someone who acts one way around their family and their close friends, but once they get out in the public, they're this whole different person.
I wish I could go to the school where my close friends go, but I obviously can't. The good thing is, they're really good about inviting me to all the football games and all that stuff. So I end up having an adopted team spirit for a school I don't go to.
As soon as you try to describe a close friendship, it loses something.
Those who know me, my really close friends, know that I play for enjoyment and to entertain the fans.
There have been some friendships lost over this. That's the most difficult for me. I find it very uncomfortable to know that I was at one time close friends with someone, and because of jealousies and misunderstandings and so on, these friendships have dissolved.
Football is good, but family, close friends, my brothers - I have family everywhere - is the most important thing.
Diwali is chaotic in the Kapoor household, and that's an understatement. I normally throw a huge card party with all my close friends and my close knit group from the industry.
I usually only play with very close friends.
When I was young, I thought it was normal to go to sleep to the sounds of sirens. People on my block were in the biggest gang in the city. They were my close friends - they showed me the ropes, who to watch out for.
I just never have really been the kind of person that's out in public being inappropriate, I guess. I like to have fun as much as the next person but I tend to do it in private and just hang out with close friends. If I'm going to go out, I'll just do it with my really good friends.
I have a very close friendship with the skaters.
When my grandfather was a journalist for the Detroit Tigers, he dressed the part. I mention it always to our local media: sport coat, tie, very professional and a nice cap on his head. And they also developed very close friendships with the players and staff traveling.
