‘If you lived in a provincial town like Torre Annunziata, where there was nothing to do in the evening but go to the movies with your friends, the cinema was a world of fantasy. I had always been in love with it.’ – Dino De Laurentiis

‘You know, right now, they say – I don’t know who says this, but somebody told me – there’s three male roles to every female role. And I guess I’d work on evening that up. Making great roles for women. It’s just such a huge challenge.’ – Anna Faris

‘Theater is just so much more satisfying than film or television just because you deliver the whole thing from start to finish in one evening, and you can tell if people have enjoyed it or not. That’s great to do every night to go in front of a full room of people and tell the story. There’s nothing like that really.’ – Jonny Lee Miller

‘In my whole career, in fact, I can remember only two first nights when a show was at its peak on the first night. And I just wish we could devise a system where critics came not on a single evening but were given a choice of performances to attend.’ – Richard McCabe

‘On the day I started college in 1979, no woman had ever been on the United States Supreme Court or served as the Speaker of the House.

‘I come from a political family. My father was a freedom fighter. He was a prominent leader of the locality and member of the Congress party. He spent 10 years in British prisons.

‘Watching the evening news in 2011 is a strange time-travel experience. ‘The CBS Evening News,’ ‘ABC World News’ and ‘NBC Nightly News’ haven’t changed their style over the decades, still going for that old-fashioned mix of voice-of-authority pomp and feel-good fluff. The difference is that people aren’t watching.’ – Rob Sheffield

‘I’m not one of those people who wakes up and thinks, ‘Bring on the day!’ I have to have about 7 pints of coffee before I’m even remotely awake.

‘Frank Capra, Hollywood’s Horatio Alger, lights with more cinematic know-how and zeal than any other director to convince movie audiences that American life is exactly like the ‘Saturday Evening Post’ covers of Norman Rockwell. ‘It’s A Wonderful Life,’ the latest example of Capracorn, shows his art at a hysterical pitch.’ – Manny Farber

‘Touch was important. The evening of the Third of July we would go around the neighborhood and look at the fireworks others had bought, taking them out of the brown paper sack and handling them cautiously as if they were precious stones. There was envy when we saw sacks with more in them than we had.’ – Paul Engle

‘I saw my parents as model grown-ups, and their manner, their silence, informed my sense of what adulthood looked and felt like. Grown-ups behaved rationally and calmly. Grown-ups worked during the day and came home at night and sat down for drinks and passed the evening quietly.’ – Caroline Knapp

‘I never want anyone to have a bad evening because I caused it.’ – Doug Morris

‘In my childhood there was every year at my old home, Roxborough, or, as it is called in Irish, Cregroostha, a great sheep-shearing that lasted many days.

‘If you watch the evening news, Dr. Kissinger is very often brought on to sort of be the statesman of his age and to reflect dispassionately on world events.

‘I don’t see anybody categorized as a ‘fashion diva,’ except for me! And I like that. I am thought of as a diva because I wear an evening dress and I take care of my look when I go out. I go to parties regarding business, not for fun. And that’s why they call me a ‘diva.” – Donatella Versace

‘I’ve always loved my red wine, and when I’m not working I can open a bottle too many. I love to cook, so it’s one for me and one for the casserole. I would consume a bottle of wine on my own of an evening and then literally pass out.’ – Amanda Donohoe

‘I like Adele, Mika, Natacha Atlas and a beautiful old record, ‘An Evening with Belafonte/Mouskouri,’ starring Harry Belafonte and Nana Mouskouri.

‘When I’m drawing, I’m drawing with the light, being completely open and creative. I can’t draw in the evening.

I draw according to the place.’ – Christian Louboutin

At the same time, you’ve got new drivers coming in and feeling their way around the circuit.’ – Allan McNish

‘Surely, you go to the theater because you want to have a great evening in the theater.’ – Andrew Lloyd Webber

‘I’m very, very focused on my children. In fact, I’m very religious about having breakfast with them every morning, having dinner with them every evening, and spend all the weekends with them that I don’t work. So as long as I’m not traveling, I’m always with them and I go to their soccer and tennis matches.’ – Zhang Xin

‘There was a time in the 1930s when magazine writers could actually make a good living. ‘The Saturday Evening Post’ and ‘Collier’s’ both had three stories in each issue.

‘My perfect day is to work incredibly well in the morning and write something wonderful, then take the dog for a walk and go for a swim in the ladies’ ponds on Hampstead Heath or work in my allotment.

‘You’re not supposed to look perfect while you’re making babies. Making babies is the perfection.

But there’s just no such thing as perfection.’ – Drew Barrymore

‘I was the person, I think, who first said the evening of September 11 that we shouldn’t hold this against the Arab community, the Muslim community. We should focus on the individuals and that groups that were involved and not participate in group blame.’ – Rudy Giuliani

”Cosmos’ wouldn’t deserve its place in primetime evening network television were it not a landscape on which compelling stories were told. People, when they watch TV in the evening, want to see stories, and science simply tells the best stories.’ – Neil deGrasse Tyson

‘Our D.V.R.s make up the schedule of the shows that we’re passionate about. You want Jon Stewart? You’ve got it. Your D.V.R. will give that to you, as opposed to making the destination and the choice to spend that evening with a network.’ – Warren Littlefield

‘I used to meditate all the time in bed. That was when I was raising my daughter, and I’d get her up and off to school, and then I would go back to bed and meditate.

‘Colorful garments – ball gowns, kimonos, evening pajamas – made from yards upon yards of iridescent silk or velvet. I own an unjustifiable number of such outfits and jump at the chance to wear them.

‘I was sent to boarding school – a grim place. The only good thing the headmaster did for us was every Sunday evening in the winter he would show us films in the chapel.

‘With glitzy add-ons, the bright, girly dress you bought for daywear becomes fancy enough for evening.’ – Brad Goreski

‘I’ve had jobs that allow me the flexibility to achieve work-life balance, to be there when one of the kids sinks a jump shot or for the parent-teacher meetings. I can move tasks around.

”Billy Elliot’ prides itself on being a family show, and it made sense to specifically cater to a family audience with an earlier evening curtain time.’ – Eric Fellner

‘Because of this high status of the object in our culture, something has to be a thing. Live efforts are almost marginal.

‘I was working at the ‘Evening Standard’ when I heard that there was a job going as deputy literary editor on the ‘New Statesman.’ I remember thinking, ‘That’s perfect.’ It was three days a week, and I had children, but I could make that work – so I applied for it and got it.’ – Claire Tomalin

‘I am a lip person. I constantly need a really good lip moisturizer with me. Mine is a Clairin’s moisture replenishing lip balm. I have two of them: I have one I keep next to my bed, so it’s the first and last thing in the morning and evening, and then 10 times a day in my purse.’ – Lindy Booth

‘Cheerfully fessing up to our failures turns crazy mind off, humility and compassion on. I learned this in a karate dojo that had a strange tradition. Everyone there loved recounting failure stories, and after an evening of smacking one another, we’d sit and have a beer while the students swapped tales of martial arts disaster.’ – Martha Beck

‘My day starts at 8 in the morning. I have meetings through the day into the evening and very often dinners and benefits at night. This is nonstop.’ – Thomas P. Campbell

‘I’ve never been one for late nights, which is why I have always preferred making films to theatre. A play takes over your life: you start to feel sick at lunchtime, and by mid-afternoon, you’re wishing for a bomb scare so the whole thing will be called off. Of course, if the evening goes well and you get the applause, then it’s wonderful.’ – Charles Dance

‘I always wanted to be a stand-up comedian, even as a kid. Me and my dad would watch ‘Evening at the Improv’ on A&E.’ – Adam DeVine

‘I’d rather be a lady of the evening than a feminist.’ – Wendy Long

‘On rare occasions, Dad used to reminisce about when he met Eisenhower and how Churchill would pop in, in the late hours of the evening or night, carrying a cigar, when he’d obviously had a good dinner.’ – Ridley Scott

‘It’s bloody annoying being shy. I’ll spend a whole evening at a party asking everyone else about themselves. I’m not being self-deprecating; it’s because I’m too shy to talk about myself. So people come away from the evening actually having learnt nothing about me.’ – Richard C. Armitage

‘My ideal meal varies, depending on the time of year. Lobster on a deck overlooking a beach at sunset is one – but all my kids have to be there, because they are all lobster-lovers. Making a bolognese sauce over pappardelle for my husband on a winter evening, because he loves my bolognese sauce and it’s his comfort food.’ – Amy Bloom

‘I cycle, I take an hour’s strenuous walk in the evening, I play tennis twice a week with a trainer, and I sail. I used to ride horses professionally – I’d ride seven or eight horses a day, so I had to be fit for that.’ – Jonathan Dimbleby

‘I wasted too much time in my twenties. I worked, but I would do theater in the evening, and during the day I would surf and do irascible things. And then, for some reason, as I got closer to my thirties, I thought, ‘Okay Joel, you’ve wasted enough time.” – Joel Edgerton

‘For almost every novel I’ve written, I’ve read the daily newspaper of the time almost as if it were my current subscription. For ‘Two Moons,’ which was set in 1877, I think I read just about every day of the ‘Washington Evening Star’ for that year. For ‘Henry and Clara,’ I read the ‘Albany Evening Journal’ of the time.’ – Thomas Mallon

”Evening Shade’ was such an eye-opening experience. I was 19 when I went on that show. I had barely had an acting class. So as Burt Reynolds continued to bring me back for the next three years, I learned so much from him and all the other legends that were on the show.’ – David A. R. White

‘I come into work late morning time and go at it until early evening, and I’m lucky that I’m at the point where I’m able to do that.’ – Nick Woodman

‘I stay away from things that I know break me out – I am weirdly allergic to mango and almonds.
