In fact, I don't read newspapers any longer.
Naomi Campbell, British Model (1970-  )
You're being cast for your acting ability. It's not based on the way your body functions. If you're playing a lead in a movie, it's for that character and they'll tailor it to you. In a dance company, you have to fit in a definite mold.
Neve Campbell, Canadian Actress (1973-  )
Women today are dealing with both their independence and also the fact that their lives are built around finding and satisfying the romantic models we grew up with.
Jane Campion, New Zealander Director (1954-  )
I think it goes back to the fact that the evangelical community often does not have a biblical vision of God.
Tony Campolo, American Clergyman
The modern mind is in complete disarray. Knowledge has stretched itself to the point where neither the world nor our intelligence can find any foot-hold. It is a fact that we are suffering from nihilism.
Albert Camus, French Philosopher (1913-1960)
Too many have dispensed with generosity in order to practice charity.
Albert Camus, French Philosopher (1913-1960)
To be famous, in fact, one has only to kill one's landlady.
Albert Camus, French Philosopher (1913-1960)
I think I may have become an actor to hide from myself. You can escape into a character.
John Candy, Canadian Comedian (1950-1994)
Adults find pleasure in deceiving a child. They consider it necessary, but they also enjoy it. The children very quickly figure it out and then practice deception themselves.
Elias Canetti, Swiss Author (1905-1994)
Well, I am a lot like my dad, and the character of Ted is based on my dad.
Max Cannon, American Artist
The fact of the matter is, most of our orders are not supersized. Less than five per cent are supersized - that's never mentioned. The whole issue has been supersized itself.
Jim Cantalupo, American Businessman (1943-2004)
But, as we've seen over the last several months, the people in this country are very dissatisfied with the direction that this administration is taking this country. And what we heard last night was absolutely the ignoring of that fact. It was: We're going to continue with this agenda. In fact, we're going to double down on healthcare.
Eric Cantor, American Politician (1963-  )
But the fact is, it's illegal for the Administration to spend North west taxpayers' money to develop this rate hike proposal, just so it can turn around and raise their energy rates.
Maria Cantwell, American Politician (1958-  )
One never knows whether people have principles on principle or whether for their own personal satisfaction.
Karel Capek, Czechoslovakian Writer (1890-1938)
I think being mean to people in high school is healthy. It's sort of like you're in this situation with all these other kids and sometimes you need to get your aggression out. And if you'd had people be mean to you before, it really does build character.
Lizzy Caplan, American Actress (1982-  )
I try to bring elements of my own personality to every character I've played, but I think I'm pretty similar to the character I'm playing now. The biggest departure would have to have been Freaks and Geeks Sara, who was this sort of subordinate and shy girl.
Lizzy Caplan, American Actress (1982-  )
It will be said, however, that protection tends to destroy commerce, the civilizer of mankind. Directly the reverse, however, is the fact.
Henry Charles Carey, American Economist (1793-1879)
Dusting is a good example of the futility of trying to put things right. As soon as you dust, the fact of your next dusting has already been established.
George Carlin, American Comedian (1937-2008)
To get the feel of how the slider should roll off of your index finger, use this grip and practice at half speed and roughly half the distance to the mound.
Steve Carlton, American Athlete (1944-  )
For, if a good speaker, never so eloquent, does not see into the fact, and is not speaking the truth of that - is there a more horrid kind of object in creation?
Thomas Carlyle, Scottish Philosopher (1795-1881)
