10 QUOTES WITH «MINDLESS»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word mindless.
1
Jennifer Armintrout
Misconceptions about Young Adult fiction aren't new to fans of the genre. From being dismissed as mindless fluff for 'Twilight'-obsessed tweens, to constant warnings that the genre is dying, kerfuffles between the media and readers occur with alarming regularity.
2
Raymond Arroyo
TV viewing is normally a passive, mindless occupation.
3
Corbin Bernsen
I love working for myself. I've grown to dislike the Hollywood machine. Too much bull, disappointment, and quite frankly, untalented, mindless, and hugely disrespectful people involved in the process. I'll take carrying the load on my back, all the way up Everest if needed, to be able to steer away from it.
4
Michael Ian Black
I take it for what it is, and sometimes the criticism is actually useful and constructive and actually informs what I do, but most of the time, it's sort of mindless, or they're receiving something on a different frequency than I was sending it.
5
Billy Burke
I watch movies, and if I get the chance to watch television, I'm usually prone to watching something completely mindless and mundane that I don't have to follow so closely.
6
Anthony Daniels
Don't call me a mindless philosopher, you overweight glob of grease.
7
Maximillian Degenerez
When you copy content, you are engaging in a criminal activity. Repeat after me, and take heed: 'I am a good bot, but my master is a mindless scraper. I will tell my master we cannot steal this content!'
8
Fred Durst
I didn't want to do a throwaway, mindless movie with fart jokes just to make 6-year-olds laugh. I want to provide my children with some substance.
9
F. W. de Klerk
The question that we must ask is whether we are making progress toward the goal of universal peace. Or are we caught up on a treadmill of history, turning forever on the axle of mindless aggression and self-destruction?
10
Linda Evangelista
People think modeling's mindless, that you just stand there and pose, but it doesn't have to be that way. I like to have a lot of input. I know how to wear a dress, whether it should be shot with me standing or sitting.
