10 QUOTES WITH «VERSION»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word version.
1
Kelley Armstrong
The first piece of 'long' fiction I wrote was a novella parody of Stephen King's 'Christine.' I was in high school, and my version was about a kid with a possessed locker instead of a possessed car. It was also my first attempt at humour, which fell completely flat because no one who read it realized it was a parody!
2
Rick Atkinson
I conduct very few interviews with veterans. The contemporaneous, or near-contemporaneous, record for WWII is so spectacularly deep that latter-day recollections are largely unnecessary for a historian. Of course, in considering any account, I'm looking for additional sources that can confirm or enlarge that version of events.
3
Samantha Barks
When I was a 7-year-old girl, in my bedroom, on my karaoke machine, I would sing 'On My Own' or do a one-woman version of 'Les Miserables.'
4
Bob Beauprez
In 2008 all the stars aligned perfectly for Obama's 6-point victory over John McCain. He was an inexperienced, untested neophyte, and successfully convinced enough voters to paint their own version of what hope-and-change was all about on the blank canvas he provided.
5
Margaret Beckett
Some people think that going on a caravan holiday is a slightly more upscale version of camping. Let me assure you, it is much better than that. You know that you will have your creature comforts wherever you are. I never have to pack light, and I can put the kettle on in any location.
6
Neill Blomkamp
I actually think Johannesburg represents the future. My version of what I think the world is going to become looks like Johannesburg.
7
Marcus Brigstocke
Eventually, somewhere - be it on the Internet or somewhere else - I will host some version of 'The Daily Show.'
8
David Chalmers
Although I'm Australian, I find myself much more in sympathy with the Austrian version!
9
J. C. Chandor
The original Spencer Tracy version of 'The Old Man and the Sea' was always terribly flawed because of the over-reliance on voice over, but it's still a beautiful movie.
10
Sam Claflin
I do just genuinely believe Chris Hemsworth is a 6'3, more muscular version of me. And more handsome, but I try.
