For the first ten years of my career, I felt suffocated. People constantly stood over me while I tried to create. And in 2009, I hit rock bottom. I couldn't find myself because I was looking to be defined by the music industry or by being number one on the Billboard charts.

India Arie

I have the same sense of discovery and exhilaration from objects of design and everyday use - I am inspired by the buildings in my city, by park greenery and dazzling store windows, by the jaunty strollers and umbrellas and billboards I walk past. Just strolling our streets, we encounter creativity every single day.

Agnes Gund

If you look at all the pictures of women in magazines, everybody's got a forehead that looks like a billboard. Completely blank.

Amy Heckerling

Rock evolved out of rebellion, so when you turn on the Billboard Awards or something like the Grammys, and there's no rock on there, that's a good sign - because that means that rock is not welcome inside of a pop format.

Ann Wilson

The biggest deal for me was that all 24 winners are placed on the Billboard CD of the Year, which went out to 500 of the biggest Music Reps in the business, from radio and press to management and booking.

Arthur Godfrey

I'd just hit the Billboard thing, and I had a good feeling. About a month ago, I received a call that said I was in the running, that I'd made the final 25. So I just wanted to place.

Arthur Godfrey

I'm just excited to see myself on billboards. I'm getting ready to be a star.

Astro

You live in the city and all the time there are signs telling you what to do and billboards trying to sell you something.

Banksy

I'm on a billboard in Times Square, but my bathroom is still dirty, and I have toothpaste on my face.

Betty Gilpin

I'm pretty much all for poetry in public places - poetry on buses, poetry on subways, on billboards, on cereal boxes.

Billy Collins

I'm visually stimulated, so I watch TV, movies, even Pinterest. A song could come from something as simple as being words splashed across a billboard or changing everyday turns of phrases.

Bonnie McKee

I'm my best billboard.

Brad Goreski

I go to the gym a lot, and I see these guys, these young actors or models there, really punishing themselves - I mean, just killing themselves. And then I'll see one of them on a billboard, with the artfully messy hair, looking as though it's just natural and easy to have a body like that.

Bronson Pinchot

Westminster's hardly a billboard for people-centred politics. Given its makeup, the term 'Commons' is pretty ironic, too.

Caroline Lucas

I always thought marketing in general was an interesting kind of thing. I always liked commercials and billboards.

Carrot Top

I've really gotten into fashion, and ever since I got into the NBA, I feel like players are walking billboards.

Chandler Parsons

I didn't realize - you think you are doing a movie but then you realize it's a Columbia Pictures movie so it's probably going to have some publicity. Then you see a billboard and it's like, 'God! I'm on a billboard!' It doesn't hit all at once, it kind of unravels itself and it's still unraveling.

Chris Evans

There seems to be such a laziness in - and I hate to use this phrase - the modern world. Everything is pumped out so quickly so that you can read it while passing by, like billboards or those flashcards before movie shows.

Chris Ware

When I was 16, at night I went to my high school and chucked rocks at the billboard sign and broke the light bulbs. That was fun.

Christopher Mintz-Plasse

I'm hoping that word-of-mouth on the film - people seeing it and liking it - that that will drive more people to the theaters, because I haven't seen the billboards or the posters or anything.

Craig McCracken

The average billboard has no more than eight words. It takes a lot of effort to make a beer, rice, or shampoo seem special in eight words.
