The military is a very cool world to write about. I went down to Ft. Benning, Ga., for military training, and I learned a lot about soldiers and officers and why they joined up and what their life has been like. - David Baldacci I really, really love Hilary Clinton. I think she's very cool. She's out there and she's involved. - Sandra Bernhard I like men who are very cool but who are also so brilliant that they are almost insane. Sean Penn, Gary Oldman, Bob Dylan, Tom Waits - men who would be flipping burgers if they hadn't found an outlet for their brilliant mind-sets. - Jolene Blalock I noticed that this defense attorney is a very, very intelligent man, and he's very cool and he's very knowledgeable, and I think that personally I'd like to have an attorney like him. - Tommy Bond You know, the people who do indie film and decide who gets those little budgets? They're mean, man. They're cold and very cool-oriented. - Louis C K I love my mother ...

My problem was that I was blond. There were no heroes with blond hair. Robert Taylor and Henry Fonda, they all had dark hair. The only one I found was Van Johnson, who wasn't too cool. He was a nice, homely American boy. So I created my own image. It worked. - Michael Caine Hedge was enthralled by her symmetry, yet the word was too cool and dry. She was beautiful. - Sean Delauder My relationship with my mom is so amazing. We never got to have that stage that people go through, like when you're 13 and you think you're too cool for your parents. When you're embarrassed by them and stuff. We never went through that because I was constantly working and she constantly had to be there. - Hilary Duff In The Woods, P11 -- She was wearing combat trousers and a wine-colored woollen sweater with sleeves that came down past her wrists, and clunky runners, and I put this down as affectation: Look, I'm too cool for your conventions. The spark of animosity this ignited increas...

Is there anything else you need from me' Ranger asked. Not right now.' There will come a time,' Ranger said. 'Let me know when.' And he disconnected. I opened the freezer and stuck my head in to cool off. If there'd been any more innuendo in that conversation, I could have fried an egg on my forehead. - Janet Evanovich Oh, so it was a lifesaving kiss." "Well, if you want to put it that way..." Arrogant jackass. "Do me a favor: next time you think my life needs saving, just let me die. I'd really prefer it." He laughed. She shook her head. "I'm going to the front with the boys. Don't follow me. You and your paramedic kisses need time to cool off. - Ilona Andrews We have got to cool down. You're driving me crazy." I bit my lip as I stared up at him mischievously. "I thought that was the whole point." He shook his head and groaned. "You really want me to get shot, don't you?" "Not at...

I just had to stay cool. Zen. No punching in the face. Punching would not be Zen. - Ilona Andrews I'll be back as quick as I can," I said awkwardly. "Sure." "Stay cool." "Don't worry, I'm not going to punch anybody." I trotted to my car. As I slipped behind the wheel I heard the little girl ask Arnie loudly, "Why is your face all messy like that, mister? - Stephen King Collin Singleton could no more stay cool than a blue whale could stay skinny or Bangladesh could stay rich - John Green I don't smoke, although it looks fantastic in films. But I light matches on those thinking blank nights when I crawl my route out onto the roof of the garage and the sky while my parents sleep innocent and the lonely cars move sparse on the faraway streets, when the pillow won't stay cool and the blankets bother my body no matter how I move or lie still. I just sit with my legs dangling and light matches and watch them flicker away. - Dani...

It's great that people are basically spending their two weeks of vacation to come out and be with us in some weird part of the world. And I think we owe it to them to take 'em to some cool places. - Jeff Ament I put on the Hank Williams and the Patsy Cline and the Rosemary Clooney on vinyl - I'm not trying to be some cool indie-rock person, I just love the way it sounds - and throw on a T-shirt and jeans. In Texas, we practically come out of the womb in jeans. - Kelly Clarkson the room had grown smothery. He wanted to be out in some cool and bitter breeze, miles above the cities, and to live serene and detached back in the corners of his mind - F Scott Fitzgerald I'm not that into reading. If I'm gonna read, I'm gonna read some cool sci-fi book or something, not some stupid self-help book. - Jon Heder Style is innate to who I am. My father gave me a picture the other day. I must have been about seven, and I had on wing-tip shoes and some cool pants. I thoug...

The band feels loose in all the right ways, and it's just so cool looking out and seeing all of these people that I haven't seen in a while. - Trey Anastasio Ohmigod! This place is so cool!" This was Tracy, who was sashaying into the warehouse looking around like she just hit the candy garden with chocolate stream at Willy Wonka's. Her eyes caught site of Elvira who was in the kitchen. "Hey girl! What's up?" "Job satisfaction, beanpole, what's up with you," Elvira replied on a huge smile thus taking the sting out of her nickname for Tracy (I hoped). If Cam was yin to Tracy's yang, Elvira was yang to all of our yins. - Kristen Ashley Yeah, fucknuts, its you. You're me. To get into this place, You're gonna have to kill me. Which is not gonna happen 'cause I'm not so cool with dying. What is gonna happen is that i'm gonna kick your ass and kill you dead. - P C Cast You always look so cool, like no matter what happens,...

Don't knock finding nemo," Xavier teased, taking the DVD from my grasp. "It's a modern classic." "Is it seriously about fish?" "Yeah, but really cool fish. - Alexandra Adornetto I just saw the movie for the first time in its entirely last night. It's really cool when you're in with an audience that's so tuned in and plugged in to what's going on. - Sasha Alexander For a long time the people at my shows were sort of the Pantera-tattoo trucker guys, really cool dudes, but I don't know what happened to them. That's the crowd that I like, the ones that don't get so offended just to be offended. - Dave Attell It is really cool to have created a movie that has turned out to become the biggest movie of the year. - Michael Bay Once he gets to the fort the colonel turns to John Wayne and says, "I did see a few Indians on the way over here." And John Wayne, with this really cool look on his face, replies, 'Don...

I've had fans come and knock on my door. I'm usually polite, but I'm usually very direct and say, 'It's not cool that you come here uninvited.' - Gary Allan The whole telling part seemed a moot point now, but how could he explain what happened? Hey, honey, I'm an alien and apparently I just doused you with some radioactive loving! Wanna catch a movie? Yeah, not cool. - Jennifer L Armentrout how could he explain what happened? 'hey, honey, i'm an alien and apparently i just doused you with some radioactive loving! wanna catch a movie?' Yeah, not cool. - Jennifer L Armentrout Bat, pigeon, ravens - I don't care about distinctions right now. Any fluttery, flappy thing is not cool with me. - P C Cast You know it might help if you'd actually told all of us about them before we run across them. Had you not shown up just now, I'd have been locked in a useless game of Whac-a-Mole, trying to kill them with a knife through the heart. I coul...

On stage, we just want to generate hysteria. We don't care about looking cool or posing. - Adrian Edmondson A lot of people are obsessed with looking cool. They feel they have to look after their image. - Adrian Edmondson

I don't wanna abandon my identity as LL Cool J, but at the same time, I had to figure out how to let people know that I'm really serious about making these movies. - Ll Cool J What is more important than the name is that people know that I really like acting, I enjoy it and I want people to know that I am serious. The name thing: I will always be L.L. Cool J. - Ll Cool J I got tired of the Ramones around the time I quit and I really got into rap. I thought it was the new punk rock. LL Cool J was my biggest idol. - Dee Dee Ramone I've never been a fan of personality-conflict burgers and identity-crisis omelets with patchouli oil. I function very well on a diet that consists of Chicken Catastrophe and Eggs Overwhelming and a tall, cool Janitor-in-a-Drum. I like to walk out of a restaurant with enough gas to open a Mobil station. - Tom Waits

... Shannon's fingers itched to smash the man in the face. Inside his head he kept telling himself, Keep cool, baby, absolutely cool. - Frederick Forsyth Keep cool; anger is not an argument. - Daniel Webster Keep cool my babies. - Conan Obrien the only way clear of the cool/crazy flipflop was obviously slow, frustrating and hard work. Love with your mouth shut, help without breaking your ass or publicizing it: keep cool, but care. He might have known, if he'd used any common sense. It didn't come as a revelation, only something he'd as soon not've admitted. - Thomas Pynchon

I'm Dylan. I'm so cool. I want to date myself, but I don't know how! You want to date me instead? You're so lucky! - Rick Riordan Leo got up and brushed himself off. "I hate that guy". He offered Jason his arm like they should go skipping together."Im Dylan. Im so cool, I want to date myself, but I cant figure out how! You want to date me instead? Youre so lucky!" "Leo" Jason said "Youre weird - Rick Riordan I'm so cool that the kids come to my bedroom and go, 'Mom! Turn the music down! - Melissa Etheridge Sometimes just when I say hello the right way, I'm like, Whoa, I'm so cool. - Robert Pattinson

I don't watch reality TV. I'm cool. - Dave Attell When certain bootleg companies started off and they would take maybe ten per cent of whatever they got and help fuel new bands, which I'm cool with, I think that's a good idea. Most of the record companies are not doing that. - David Coverdale I'm cool with failing so long as I know that there are people around me that love me unconditionally. - Dave Chappelle And then there was the young male walk. At least women swung only their hips. Young men swung everything, from the shoulders down. You have to try to occupy a lot of space. It makes you look bigger, like a tomcat fluffing his tail. The boys tried to walk big in self-defense against all those other big boys out there. I'm bad, I'm fierce, I'm cool, I'd like a pint of shandy and me mam wants me home by nine. - Terry Pratchett Did anyone ever tell you that your completely inappropriate?" "They have. And you know, I had a little talk ...

I have actor friends, but they're not famous. I feel like if you're an actor or - famous, you have to overly prove that you're a normal, cool person. - Amanda Bynes I just don't want you to feel uncomfortable about this," he says. Say: "Hey. I am a very cool person. I am tough." Show him your bicep. - Lorrie Moore

Is there anything else you need from me' Ranger asked. Not right now.' There will come a time,' Ranger said. 'Let me know when.' And he disconnected. I opened the freezer and stuck my head in to cool off. If there'd been any more innuendo in that conversation, I could have fried an egg on my forehead. - Janet Evanovich Oh, so it was a lifesaving kiss." "Well, if you want to put it that way..." Arrogant jackass. "Do me a favor: next time you think my life needs saving, just let me die. I'd really prefer it." He laughed. She shook her head. "I'm going to the front with the boys. Don't follow me. You and your paramedic kisses need time to cool off. - Ilona Andrews You know how it feels right before a tornado hits? I mean when the sky's still clear, but the wind's starting to cool off and change direction. You know something's coming, but you don't always know what. That's how things feel to me right n...

The band feels loose in all the right ways, and it's just so cool looking out and seeing all of these people that I haven't seen in a while. - Trey Anastasio Once he gets to the fort the colonel turns to John Wayne and says, "I did see a few Indians on the way over here." And John Wayne, with this really cool look on his face, replies, 'Don't worry. If you were able to spot some Indians, that means there weren't any there.' I don't remember the actual lines, but it went something like that. Do you get what he means? - Haruki Murakami I like that hot air balloon.' I pointed to the ceiling where an antique looking wooden hot air balloon hung. 'Yeah, I like it too. Partly because it's cool looking, but also partly because of the irony. It weighs a ton. In this office, anything can fly. No matter what is weighing it down. Even wooden balloons. Cool, huh? - Jennifer Brown Hello. Yes. You left A's raincoat in your car Saturday? That...

I imagine how cool it would be if all small talk wasn't lies. - Jodi Picoult The sound universe is also spectacular around here. In the evenings there's a cricket orchestra with frogs providing the bass line. In the dead of night the dogs howl about how misunderstood they are. Before dawn the roosters for miles around announce how freaking cool it is to be roosters. - Elizabeth Gilbert I looked at Thalia. "You're afraid of heights." Now that we were safely down the mountain, her eyes had their usual angry look. "Don't be stupid." That explains why you freaked out on Apollo's bus. Why you didn't want to talk about it." She took a deep breath. Then she brushed the pine needles out of her hair. "If you tell anyone, I swear" No, no," I said. "That's cool. It's just... the daughter of Zeus, the Lord of the Sky, afraid of heights? - Rick Riordan Fear is a weakness. It makes a person lose her nerve and her cool. I...

Our mission for younger people is to do our best to make exercise cool, hip - the thing to do. - Bruce Jenner This advice has been given often and more compellingly elsewhere, but my specific piece of wrong procedure back then was, incredibly, to browse through the thesaurus and note words that sounded cool, hip, or likely to produce an effect, usually that of making me look good, without then taking the trouble to go and find out in the dictionary what they meant - Thomas Pynchon David Lynch and I almost made a movie together in the late '80s. We had lots of dinners and lunches. He's a very cool, hip guy. This film, let's face it, is like an homage to him, I would imagine he'd find it funny. - Martin Short

There were a lot of illegal, deadly things stored in Beckett's car, but the only thing he kept hidden was the CD he now pulled out from under the driver's seat. He slipped it in the player and turned on the power, letting the classical music sweep over him like a cool breeze. It was the soundtrack of his boys. The music that saved them. Blake's music. - Debra Anastasia There are people who come into our lives as welcome as a cool breeze in summer- and last about as long. - Richard Paul Evans There is dew on these poems in the morning, and at night a cool breeze may rise from them. In the winter they are blankets, in the summer a place to swim. I like talking to you like this. Have you moved a step closer? Soon we may be kissing. - Kabir You do not esteem good deeds?" She shifted the basket handle to both hands, just as a cool breeze blew a bonnet string across her face. "My dear Miss Keene, what would the world be without them?" He brushed the string from...

More and more, Democrats are starting to worry they that they have a more um, colorful version of Jimmy Carter on their hands. Obama acts cool as a proverbial cucumber but that awful '70s show seems frightfully close to a rerun. - Eric Alterman I walk into a room Just as cool as you please, And to a man, The fellows stand or Fall down on their knees. - Maya Angelou Norman Mailer described the desire to be cool as a decision to encourage the psychopath in oneself, to explore that domain of experience where security is boredom and therefore sickness and one exists in the present, in that enormous present which is without past or future, memory or planned intention. - Anthony Bourdain We found out the Gemini spacesuit was, well, oxygen was flowing to keep me cool as well as to breathe, and it wasn't good enough. My visor got fogged. - Gene Cernan Vince Vaughn is a genuine person, awesome guy. He'll come to a lot of my shows. It's not that often that you can meet someo...
