We will continue to work with agencies across the government to unleash the power of open data and to make government data more accessible and usable for entrepreneurs, companies, researchers, and citizens everywhere - innovators who can leverage these resources to benefit Americans in a rapidly growing array of exciting and powerful ways.
— Todd Park
I'll only work on TV shows that have a 'Sookie' on them! Those are the only shows that will cast me. And I've never even met a Sookie in my life. Sookie on 'Gilmore Girls' was played by Melissa McCarthy. And Sookie, played by Anna Paquin, is number one on the call sheet on 'True Blood.' Somebody should write another script with a Sookie in it.
— Todd Lowe
You never know how your work is going to be received, and to have it be not just received by the people who wanted it or knew about it or our traditional fan base, which is pretty big, but also having it spill over to everybody who plays games, and then those people telling everybody else who doesn't play games - that's what it became.
— Todd Howard
The highest-caliber dramatic work produced for TV - not just in cable but something like 'The Good Wife' at network - is consistently great.
— Todd Haynes
The way I sort of approach my work is that the historical and socioeconomic and cultural worlds that the music is exploring dictate the visual experience and the way that we approach it specifically on film.
I had temping jobs also. I liked the flexibility. There was no asking for time off; you just didn't work.
— Todd Barry
Teachers complain a lot about how tough their job is. But, you know, the day begins in most schools at nine o'clock, ends at 3.30 P.M. They have six weeks' holiday during the summer, two weeks' holiday at Easter and at Christmas. Yes, they don't just work when they're at school, but even so, compared to a lot of other jobs, it's not that tough.
— Toby Young
They sent me the script, and I was dubious at first. I said, 'Lost in Space? They're reviving that? They tried to do that with the film, and it didn't work.' And then I read the script, and I actually liked it.
— Toby Stephens
When working abroad you work pretty hard, but with time off, this is the greatest job in the world. You drive. You explore Memphis, or wherever you've landed, or go and see Dr John, or the Californian landscape. And, yes, I've had a few good meals.
— Toby Jones
We have to work hard and not dream too much, because if we dream too much, we can fall down very quickly.
— Toby Alderweireld
'Saw' has been a unique experience in that I've had the opportunity to work with some really great artists, and everyone has contributed in so many different ways, in all of the different departments of a film crew.
— Tobin Bell
Work for most people is really very social, and the actual thinking is often done in community.
— Tobias Wolff
If you go into business school and suggest firing a customer, they'll kick you out of the building. But it's so true in my experience. It allows you to identify the customers you really want to work with.
— Tobias Lutke
I think I probably had to start a company, because I don't think I can work for other people.
When you have a fruitful relationship with someone, and you've both chosen to work together, then it can spawn really good things.
— Tobias Forge
I constantly work with material that could be two years old, five years old, ten years old, as well as new things.
If you're sitting in the audience, you probably can't see the preparation and work that goes into creating a great scene or a great part, but I can assure you that a good film depends on lot of different things falling perfectly into place.
— Tobey Maguire
To me, I was always just standing on the sidelines because up until issue 50, we were just doing Spawn. I wasn't recruiting anybody because I didn't have any books for people to work on.
— Todd McFarlane
Despite all of our games, all of our success together - 'Elder Scrolls,' when we started, it was a very generic fantasy. It had its parts. We pushed it to have more of its own unique identify. We're proud of the work everyone did there.
You have to be somewhat ruthless with your work. You have to let things go. Even your favourite little part might not work in the end.
There's no better place to do a longform project than HBO. I loved the creative teams I got a chance to work with.
You can be a smarty-pants director, but that won't matter if the movie doesn't work emotionally as well as intellectually.
I will work with anyone that wants to get America back on track and make sure that the government is the servant and no longer the master.
— Todd Akin
I tried being a mechanic and I tried catering, but I realized I had even less aptitude for semi-skilled labour than for academic work.
It's a great experience as an actor to just work loads all the time. Constantly getting through material.
— Toby Regbo
I work best when a little scared, when there's so much more than the lines to think about.
I learned that I could not do enough work; it's always incomplete. When you ask a question, the answer will raise four more questions, and those four will become eight.
One of the first speaking roles I had was in a film called 'Svengali', with Peter O'Toole and Elizabeth Ashley. I was a waiter, and I had about three lines. And I was ready! I had been around people like that, and I knew they were just actors. All the work I had done, it was all there, and I felt like I knew all the mechanics.
I try to help people become the best possible editors of their own work, to help them become conscious of the things they do well, of the things they need to look at again, of the wells of material they have not even begun to dip their buckets into.
A lot of the best technologists live and work in Canada, and every once in a while, they are aggregated by a Canadian company, and then suddenly, they're not anymore. But the people are still here - they're just working for American companies to the benefit of American bottom lines.
I love to work with friends.
— Tobias Lindholm
I like the fact that my work in Ghost is famous, and people know it, and we have our crowd. But I am not as antsy about getting recognized on the street as I might have once been.
In an alternative life, I would have loved to work in film - I love film.
I'm so critical of my own work that it's difficult for me to disassociate myself and watch it as an audience.
Here is a fear for me, I never wanted to be one of those guys that was defined by a body of work 20 years old.
I liked that line in the movie 'Shakespeare in Love': 'How is this going to work out? I don't know, but it always does.'
I do know my own films don't necessarily work within that high-pressure reductive moment of the opening weekend - or all the ways that many people assess the value of movies.
Cannes is a lot of work, since it's a market festival and a serious festival, and they really work you, understandably.
I am a realist as well as an idealist, and I think that it is incumbent upon those of us in opposition to try to work within what are always arduous circumstances to stretch the limits of the possible.
— Todd Gitlin
My work on hyper instruments started with simple instruments, like the piano.
— Tod Machover
I was doing a lot of great theatre, but I just couldn't work out how to make ends meet.
Writing is not work. In fact, there's nothing better. Writing is something that if the music business went completely away tomorrow - radio stations quit existing and music quit being popular and it was old hat - I would still write songs.
— Toby Keith
A movie needs to have a must-see quality among the people you are targeting. Also, make movies at a responsible budget so that if you attract your core audience, and they show up in the first few weekends, the economics will work.
— Toby Emmerich
All I can do is do my best work, try to create the best kind of moment to moment reality that I can do. That's what I do. I'm an actor. And all the rest of it is like baseball. You hit the ball. Sometimes it goes in the hole. Sometimes it goes to the player.
In the the late seventies and early eighties, I played background roles in thirty movies... Woody Allen movies, Scorsese films, you name it. Whatever was being shot in New York, I was doing stand-in and background work because I wanted to be close to the camera; I wanted to see what was going on.
I like what I do, and a lot of these projects have really interesting material and interesting people to work with. I feel lucky.
— Tobias Menzies
Once you've made peace with the fact that you're hardly ever going to work on anything that you're actually good at, the only thing that you can do is get good very fast on everything you have to do.
I wasn't letting people in with the music writing process, and for a long time, I thought I was hard to work with.
As long as I don't go onstage completely normal and then jump into character onstage, I assume that most fans would be able to accept me as the creator. I can comment on the work the same way a director would on his movie.
There's so many things I want to do. I want to work with great filmmakers, great actors, great scripts. And there's no reason for me to do anything short of that, because I'm 24, I don't have a family, I don't need to make tons of money, and I'm not dying to get famous.
