Many think that elite athletes like me are taken care of. But that is not true, only a few like Sindhu are looked after well.
Physically, when you are fit, mentally you are more alert and confident.
In fact, I am a bit apprehensive about biopics on sporting personalities in our country after seeing a few films. But my biopic is not going to be the same; it's completely different.
If I lose a match, I don't get sad or feel down. But if I lose a close match, I surely have sleepless nights.
If you keep winning all the time, you may not learn a lot, but failure has a lot to teach.
I stopped playing mixed doubles and there is no result in mixed doubles. I was world number six. People who are talking about me and my performance and questioning my career and my achievements, where is the next mixed doubles pair, please show it to me. I would like to know.
Being a player, I am supposed to train and practice and only think about my game, what I have to develop and what weaknesses I have to take care of.
In doubles there was nobody before me. I have changed how people look at doubles.
I have done nothing wrong as captain of the Delhi Krrish Smashers franchisee in the IBL.
I don't expect people to understand, but as players who love the sport and have constantly been thrown a rock at by our association and now the Govt, there is only so much one can take.
Consistency is most important in international level and once you have it, you become a different player.
Unlike badminton playing major nations of the world, we never had a specialist doubles coach and so the discipline remained neglected.
I don't court controversies, but when I state facts, which are hard to digest for male-dominated authorities, they call them squabble.
I have fought back. From not being allowed to play, I have now qualified for Olympics in two events, it is satisfying. I feel proud.
Ryan Fleck
The comic book writer Kelly Sue DeConnick really uniquely tapped into Carol Danvers – not just her toughness and her power, but also her vulnerability.
Carol Thatcher
My mother was prone to calling me by her secretaries’ names and working through each of them until she got to Carol.
Willow Shields
‘Poltergeist’ terrifies me! When the little girl Carol Anne is talking to the TV, I get shivers every time.
Whitley Strieber
I put the copy of ‘A Christmas Carol’ that my grandfather had first read to me 60 years ago on my desk, and I began to write. The result, for better or for worse, is the ‘Christmas Spirits.’ I plan to read it to my grandson.
Wendi McLendon-Covey
I grew up in the age of variety shows. ‘Flip Wilson,’ ‘Carol Burnett,’ ‘Donny and Marie,’ and ‘Sonny and Cher’ – I never missed an episode. These shows had it all: singing, dancing, and sketch comedy. One minute, they’re ice-skating with pyrotechnics, the next they’re doing a scene on a gigantic set. I just couldn’t get enough.
Wendy Liebman
I think there have always been funny women, from Carol Burnett to Joan Rivers. When the audience sees a woman, they innately know she’s worked twice as hard to get there, she’s had to prove that she can be the leader, first, and then be funny on top of it. She has to emit a confidence that she’s in control.
Vicki Lawrence
Everybody just told me from the day I went into high school that I looked like Carol Burnett.
Vicki Lawrence
People would get Carol Burnett and Vicki Lawrence all mushed together in their brains, and, bless their hearts, it would come out Carol Lawrence.
Vicki Lawrence
Most of the cast and crew on ‘Mama’s Family’ have been together since the ‘Carol Burnett’ days, so we work really well together. It’s like I’m being paid to pretend I’m in show business.
Tony Hale
What would be a show that I would rescue? If I could bring anything back, it would be ‘The Carol Burnett Show’. Tim Conway is just… I just watched him so many times do stuff over and over. He’s just so amazing.
Todd Haynes
I started ‘Carol’ as I almost always do, by looking at films from the time, and they were less – they actually felt less relevant to me in terms of their bigness, although we do have some big ’50s-type moments in ‘Carol.’
Tom Shales
Making music on TV used to be as common as commercials. In the ’60s and ’70s, prime time was stuffed with variety shows headlined by such major and treasured talents as Carol Burnett, Red Skelton, the Smothers Brothers and Richard Pryor, who had a very brief comedy-variety hour on NBC that was censored literally to death.
Todd Haynes
You’ll see in ‘Carol’ a lot of shots shot through windows, glass and awnings, with interruptions between where we are and where our object is. To me, I hope that that conjures the whole act of looking as a predicament, as something that is never easy and never completely attainable.
Todd Haynes
Aspects of guilt or handwringing that one might expect in a film set in the ’50s about women who discover their love for other women – a lot of these things are not in ‘Carol.’
Todd Haynes
With ‘Carol,’ I was just really looking at and thinking about the love story as a genre, not the domestic melodrama.
Todd Haynes
‘Carol’ takes place at a time the country was crawling out of the shadows of the war years, feeling the new vulnerabilities of the Cold War and conflicts within the union.
Todd Haynes
‘Mildred’ was the first film I shot on Super 16 with Ed Lachman, and we decided to continue doing so for ‘Carol.’
Todd Haynes
I felt ‘Brokeback Mountain’ re-imbued the love story with an authentic and unquestionable series of obstacles that these men faced. I think that’s certainly true for ‘Carol’ as well.
Todd Haynes
‘Carol’ takes place in the really early ’50s, before Eisenhower has taken office. It’s based on a Patricia Highsmith novel, her second and most autobiographical book and the only one outside of the crime milieu.
Tituss Burgess
Carol Kane is just as warm as you would think she is, and she is so smart and really a living legend and has so much to offer.
