I'm always in the car in L.A., so I see the people I work with - and, thank God, I adore the people I work with - but it's a little lonely.
— Tanya Saracho
I want to work in literature-based movies in Bengal as this is the specialty of the Bengali film industry.
— Tanushree Dutta
When I was young, I was like, ‘I want to want to work with this director and that director'. I've stopped doing that. You put yourself in a place where you get disappointed.
I only come out and interact socially and even speak only when need be for work or other social commitments.
I know I should be Wonder Woman. They need an international actress - a fresh face. They need a woman who's tall, athletic and dark-haired - and an actress who can play the part. That's me. So, I'm coming to L.A. to work hard and meet the industry. And if 'Wonder Woman' comes together, I want it.
— Tanit Phoenix
I would say that in my black readership, more of my readers tolerate the horror aspect of my work, you know. 'I don't usually read this kind of stuff, but.'
— Tananarive Due
Ireland is such a young society. The British were the ruling class up until they left about a hundred years ago, and we've been trying to work out what our class hierarchy is ever since.
— Tana French
Sometimes it's more tiring being at home with your child than it is being at work! But I thrive on variety, so if you can get a good balance in your life, then I think that's the key.
— Tamzin Outhwaite
I don't want to take anything that's coming in for the sake of work. I want to choose carefully, as I have done since leaving 'EastEnders.'
I work in Britain, where women are allowed to look their age.
— Tamsin Greig
I know women at work who don't talk about having a baby because they don't want to upset the apple cart, but unless people know what the problems are, why should they engage with it?
I'm proud of my hard work. Working hard won't always lead to the exact things we desire. There are many things I've wanted that I haven't always gotten. But, I have a great satisfaction in the blessings from my mother and father, who instilled a great work ethic in me both personally and professionally.
— Tamron Hall
I've been lucky enough to work in pop culture, especially with people right before they popped.
— Tamra Davis
Like many moms in this country, I work to provide my child the best life she can have. It's tough. It's hard to take care of a sick baby all night, wake up tired, and have to go to work when all I want to do is spend time holding her.
— Tammy Duckworth
The American Dream I believe in is one that provides anyone willing to work hard enough with the opportunity to succeed.
Veterans are my life's work. From the day my buddies saved my life in Iraq, I've woken up every single day dedicated to taking care of veterans and doing my best for veterans.
Sometimes it takes dealing with a disability - the trauma, the relearning, the months of rehabilitation therapy - to uncover our true abilities and how we can put them to work for us in ways we may have never imagined.
I'm very conscious of who I work with. Because I want to develop and nurture my writers so they can have their own shows, take on whatever is next for them.
There is no short-cut to success. Whether you want to be an engineer, a charted accountant or a fashion model you must work hard.
I know a lot of times you don't even get the opportunity to audition for people you really want to work with because there is a business angle involved.
I like films, or some films, and would be intrigued to see my work on screen.
— Tanith Lee
The cool thing about working and meeting a lot of people through your acting is that you never know who you might work with, in the future.
— Tania Raymonde
My kids are all conscious that they have to prove themselves for who they are. I'm happy for them to do anything they want as long as it's their passion and they work hard.
— Tana Ramsay
I worked as a receptionist in England for a couple of years whilst I was building up my business. I decided to take a massive pay cut from my full-time job and work as a receptionist so I could make my own business work.
— Tan France
If anything, I would say the movies I've done have been very low paid. TV work and voice-overs have been more lucrative.
In my head, that climb up the career ladder just doesn't exist. I feel I've achieved everything I set out to achieve, as far as work goes.
I was a cleaner while at university. The job wasn't bad, but I was amazed by how badly cleaners are treated - how disrespected they are by the people they work for.
I hardly ever missed school, and I always got my work in on time. I was a good student and always got top grades.
— Tamsin Egerton
I hope to work till I'm an old lady.
I can trust in Jesus. And this Gospel that we preach does work. So those who are hurting and suffering today, hang in there. The sun will shine again.
— Tammy Faye Bakker
It was the combination of hard work and a hand up that allowed me to become one of the first women to fly in combat missions and achieve my American Dream.
I was born in Bangkok in 1968 and grew up in Southeast Asia with my Thai mom and my American father, who first came to the region to fight in Vietnam and stayed to work assisting refugees.
I'm going to find solutions wherever I can. I think it's all a priority. You can't just say, 'OK, I'm going to work on this but not that.' You have to work on all of it.
Horrible things happen when you run out of other people's money, and life and work becomes a burden when there is no reward for your effort.
— Tammy Bruce
I have always wanted to work in a Bengali film.
I don't even have a management team. I have people managing my work but there are limitations when it comes to projects.
How come nobody in Bollywood has sleepless nights when a woman becomes a victim of abuse and is not able to work due to the trauma and ostracisation?
I submitted manuscripts to publishers. This was not so much a feeling that I should be published as a wish to escape the feared and hated drudgery of normal work.
I tell my students based on my experiences in Hollywood, sure, you can always move to L.A. and try to work with the system, and people do that, but chances are if you want your story in film with characters of color, you will have to make that movie yourself. Find a way to make it yourself. Not just screenwriters, but also producers.
With acting, you have to depend on somebody else to decide if you are allowed to work. You can spend weeks and months when you are not acting at all.
You know how Oprah has her moment about bread? Mine's about boots. You could wear it to a meeting at work. You could wear it to a date.You could wear it to a wedding with a suit.
We work in a business where you feel you always have to say yes because you never know when you will work again. But I found myself questioning that paranoia, which I'd grown up with ever since I started working in the theatre in my late teens.
People say never work with children and animals. I actually like working with Oliver Bell, and working with a rat really opens possibilities to you because you don't know how it's going to be. It's just a rat, so you can just react to this rat being a rat, if that makes sense.
— Tamzin Merchant
I always said there's no way I'd work in America because I'm too weird and I'm too old, but somehow it's happened.
I root for anyone who's got kids and if they want to make it work.
I understand that in some families both parents have to work, so the kids are home alone eating more processed foods. But if the kids know how to make oatmeal or eggs in the morning or pasta or a lentil soup at night - we're giving them real survival tools.
I get up every single day trying to repay a debt that I can never repay. Never. And I will work hard. Because I don't know why I was saved. I don't know.
At my core, I know that the American Dream is about the opportunity to work hard to make your future.
I said three things when I woke up in Walter Reed. 'I love you.' 'Put me to work,' and 'You stink! Go shower!'
My strength is in finding ways to make the government work for the people: finding waste, or money that is not being properly used... or finding opportunities that are out there and making them work for the community.
