10 QUOTES WITH «ATTRACTED»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word attracted.
1
Peter Ackroyd
I have always believed that the material world is governed by nonmaterial sources, so that in that sense 'English Music' is an exercise in the spiritual as well as the material. I have always been attracted to the Gothic and spiritual imagination, and I've always been interested in visionaries.
2
Amy Adams
I would say that a lot of the characters I've been attracted to are very vulnerable and they expose themselves emotionally. Not so much in 'The Fighter,' not so much in 'The Master' - I think those are different.
3
Gautam Adani
I am not attracted to those politicians who are short on vision and only want to make money. I like those who have vision.
4
Derek Bailey
I have always been attracted to the cottage industry side of this business.
5
Abu Bakr
If an ignorant person is attracted by the things of the world, that is bad. But if a learned person is thus attracted, it is worse.
6
Andrew Bird

7
Jolene Blalock
The thing I was attracted to as a little girl was Kirk, Bones and Spock, and their utter loyalty. There's nothing more powerful than that.
8
Chaz Bono
I confused gender identity with sexual orientation. Your gender identity is about who you are, how you feel, the sex that you feel yourself to be. Sexual orientation is who you're attracted to.
9
Jane Byrne
Chicago kept industry, attracted new business, became the center for convention trade and transportation.
10
Eugene Chadbourne
I started using contact microphones that you can place on common, ordinary objects, like a rake. I put a microphone on it and it picked up the tines vibrating and turned it into a horrible din. What attracted me to it was the horrible din - that's what I really liked.
