— Imogen Heap
Prince turned experimental music into pop music. 'When Doves Cry,' the whole 'Purple Rain' soundtrack - he was inspired by the Cocteau Twins and new wave pop and brought it into R&B when he first started, and then it became this cool, next-level, kind of hard-to-digest music. Which is what I felt 'House of Balloons' was.
— The Weeknd
You think aerobics is not a cool sport? I think you are wrong. It requires amazing discipline - flexibility, fitness, knowledge. And you have to do it with a big smile on your face.

— Magnus Scheving

Reggae, oh man. It's the ultimate music. The positivity. The musicality. The whole cultural expressionism of it. The danceability. Just the cool factor. The melody factor.

— Lupe Fiasco

I feel that we, as Indians, have a knack for loving a stereotypical, sobbing, sympathy-seeking personality. I feel that we need to promote quirky, cool and youthful talent. We have to stop propagating the sob-story angle of celebs, where they try to be larger-than-life. That is very outdated. It is so boring that it puts you to sleep.
— Kangana Ranaut

— Selena

— Adlai E. Stevenson

— Michael Caine
Being uncool is being pretty much the coolest you can be.

— Colin Angle
I had my bad-boy moment in my teens. I'll never do that again. It wasn't pleasant, and I learned my lesson. It was sexy and mysterious, and it's like, 'Look how cool they are,' but it's just not worth it. He was lying to me and accusing me of cheating - but then I realized he was the one cheating.
— Jessica Biel

You don't have to necessarily be in a band, all you've gotta have are a couple of buds who play too. They don't have to be guitarists either; jamming with a bassist or a drummer is cool.
— Dimebag Darrell

— Eric Stoltz
With 'The Social Network,' I got into it at first because frankly I thought there was a cool courtroom drama to be had with the intellectual properties. And then what further drew me in was that the most extraordinary social networking device ever created was created by the world's most antisocial person. I liked that story.
— Aaron Sorkin
But this is Miami, you can't come to Miami and not show any skin. You gotta show something. If you're all covered up in this heat, you're gonna make me pass out out just to look at you. It's sweaty in Miami-but the diamonds will keep me cool.
— Lil' Kim

— Riz Ahmed

— Frances Farmer

— Lady Gaga
I try to explain to people that you get the roles that are right when they're right. If you have a nerd character but you're kind of a cool guy, you're probably not going to get the nerd part. The nerd is going to get the nerd part. You know, someone like me.
— Ed Helms
You have to be the best of whatever you are, but successful, cool actresses come in all shapes and sizes.

— Tom Hardy
I think working with Johnny Depp was very intimidating. It was my fault though. I mean he's a total cool nice, nice guy, but I was just so, I don't know, overpowered by his presence. Like he's a very mystic person. He's older so I never really warmed up around him. I was so stiff.
— Franka Potente

— Drew Barrymore
If you meet a girl, you meet a girl. It's normal, so if you exchange numbers, whatevs, it's cool.
— Zayn Malik
Violence is a very ugly thing. Violence is often so casual on film, and made to look so cool and so sexy, but violence is a repulsive, repugnant act that human beings inflict on each other. It shouldn't seem to be cool and sexy, ever really.
— James Purefoy
'Aladdin' was probably my favorite Disney animation when I was a kid. The animation was great and Robin Williams was unbelievable as the Genie.

— Zachary Levi
As far as friendships go, things change even without the fame. People start moving on. I have a few friends that are married and are starting to have kids and I'm like, 'Oh my goodness gracious - that's so insane.' I also have friends who are just doing their own thing, which is cool.
— Jordin Sparks
I think it's interesting to have a cool character not look so cool, you know?
— Norman Reedus

— Kurt Busiek
Perfect heroes are cool, but no one can really empathize or identify with them.

We were just sure users would love it!
— Kathryn Minshew
I don't go out drinking and stuff like that. My friends say 'Just have one drink, JD.' I say 'What's the point?' I'll go to a club and have a Red Bull, get my buzz. And the next day I feel cool. It's discipline, not just with drinking but a lot of things in life. You've just got to look at the bigger picture.
— Jermain Defoe
The world needs actual excitement and emotion more than it needs cool people.
— Amanda Palmer
I was just a big fan of tattoos always growing up, and I wanted something cool that symbolizes what I've been through in my life, and everything on my chest and my back is like a collage.
— Kevin Durant
I remember my first run-in with cops. It took me really getting to hang, well after that, with cops who were cool, and realizing, 'Okay, there are some bad ones.' I ran into some bad ones in Columbus, Ohio, but they're not all bad.
— Woody Harrelson
When you make a book or you make a movie, it is almost like hitting on somebody. It's not because you want to seduce people that you will seduce them; you can hit on somebody and it doesn't work. But when you hit on them and it works, then it's really cool.
— Marjane Satrapi
I don't need to come back to Wimbledon every year because I can't live without it. I'd be totally cool without tennis.
— Roger Federer
The world that I am coming from, hip-hop, is so regurgitated and repetitive that some people are used to that and they don't want change, they don't like change. And I get that, that's cool. Luckily for me, I'm confident in myself as an artist where I can do what I want, and as long as I'm cool with it, I'm cool with it.
— Kid Cudi
I first met my husband when I was 15. He was very cool, in a band, all that kind of thing, but he took a long time to grow up. Our paths crossed again 10 years later, and after about two weeks I knew that was it. I'm glad I met him when I did, even though I was fairly young. Because I think sometimes you can crystallise into singledom.
— Natascha McElhone
I met Bill Clinton; he's a very nice guy. Yeah, Bill Clinton's cool.
— Ed Sheeran
My dad probably gave me the best advice growing up. I think it's really just keeping your cool in situations and learning to balance everything.
— Cassie Steele
Being incarcerated is truly very serious, and it has changed my life to such an extent that breaking the cycle has become my sole focus. Jail is definitely not cool. Education is.
— Ja Rule
'Cyberspace' as a term is sort of over. It's over in the way that, after a certain time, people stopped using the suffix '-electro' to make things cool, because everything was electrical. 'Electro' was all over the early 20th century, and now it's gone. I think 'cyber' is sort of the same way.
— William Gibson
My advice to young people wanting to make music and to be in this industry is to really spend your time making music. Make so much music you have no friends. Make music. Figure out what it is you love, and... because if you're making cool art, then everything else will fall into line.
— Lorde
Growing up in a cold place, in Southern Ontario, Woolrich was a brand of choice for us because it was always warm and comfortable. The parka with the fur on it was standard fare for us.

— Douglas Kirkland
Entrepreneurship is seen as if you're in Silicon Valley or New York City and starting an app business or a social-media business, which is cool. But what we really have to focus on is people who make things, and how can we fund them, and how can we encourage people to stay in their community and make a difference in their community.
— Hamdi Ulukaya
We believe it is bad or dangerous to be carried away by our emotions. We admire the person who is cool, who acts without feeling.

— Brad Goreski
I have this obsession with really cool, old books.

— Dennis Crowley
In 2007, I hit 50 home runs. That was pretty cool. I never thought I'd be able to do that. At the time, I didn't even think it was that big of a deal for some reason. But now, looking back, I realize it was pretty cool.
— Prince Fielder
Living in New Zealand, it's like a different world - it is a different world. It's very, very cool.
— Luke Evans
Growing up, I didn't get the talk of 'Make sure boys take you on a date and treat you right.' So I was the girl who wasn't dating and would just text. I dated these guys who didn't have jobs, and I would always be paying. At one point, I remember looking in the mirror and thinking, 'You're too pretty and cool to be treated like this.'
— Meghan Trainor
I am the 'Cosmic Dancer' who dances his way out of the womb and into the tomb on 'Electric Warrior.' I'm not frightened to get up there and groove about in front of six million people on TV because it doesn't look cool. That's the way I would do it at home.
— Marc Bolan
I have got prostate cancer, and I have to keep monitoring that. It's no problem, it's under control and I'm very cool about it, but other people are dying from it.
— Ian Mckellen
The only other thing I can really remember wanting to do besides acting was a gas station attendant. At the time, that seemed like a great job - wash the windows, pump the gas - it looks so cool coming home with black hands. There's a natural transition, from wanting to be a gas station attendant to being an actor, right?
— Daniel Stern
The reason it has taken so long for the robotics industry to move forward is because people keep trying to make something that is cool but difficult to achieve rather than trying to find solutions to actual human problems. Technology can be extremely expensive if you don't focus.
— Colin Angle
To me, Sid Vicious is cool. Super chill.
— Tyler, The Creator
I'm cool with my body, I love my body. I wouldn't trade it for no other body.
— Marshawn Lynch
Being on a lunchbox was awesome, and being on a thermos was pretty cool, too.
— Zach Galligan
Rey is so strong. She's cool and smart and she can look after herself. Young girls can look at her and know that they can wear trousers if they want to. That they don't have to show off their bodies.
— Daisy Ridley
I've done so much travelling in the past few years, and when you travel, you realise that we do actually have a cool, clean look in Scandinavia - it's not just Denmark - which I think brings peace if you have it in your home.
— Birgitte Hjort Sorensen
Getting to share the stories in my head with other people and have them enjoy those stories, and having them come to see my characters as real. That's so cool.
— Gail Z. Martin
The really cool thing about festivals is that you're getting to play in front of a whole lot of people who have never heard of us before. That's exciting. At the same time, it's a little bit of a challenge to capture the attention of people who have already seen a lot of bands.
— Josh Dun
Technology is cool, but you've got to use it as opposed to letting it use you.

— Kangana Ranaut

— James Wan
When you're playing music through the streets of London at 2 o'clock in the morning, there's something so cool and magical about that. It takes you to a special place very quickly.
— Rachel McAdams
There's no idea or concept in comedy you could do that hasn't been attacked from some angle. But if you start leaving punchlines out so you'll look cool, I don't get that. But I don't watch standup anyway, so I don't know what they're doing.
— Ron White
I think, for the first time, people are starting to say, 'That's Sterling K. Brown,' which is cool, which is uncharted territory for your boy. It's nice to be called by your name when you're not in character.
— Sterling K. Brown
Anything I get to wear to the Met Ball is huge. I'm not a fashion girl, so it's cool to be dolled up and have those diamonds where they send armed guards with you.

My best friend was really cool, and she went to a youth theatre in Paisley, so I thought maybe that's the way to do it. I went along, and I immediately found something I was passionate about and really enjoyed.

I have to stay calm, cool, and collected.
— Canelo Alvarez
The films that have influenced me most are: 'The Hustler', 'Badlands', 'Hud', 'Tender Mercies', 'Cool Hand Luke', 'A Perfect World', and 'Laurence of Arabia'. I also really like 'Fletch'. I feel like all of these films reached an honest place in regard to the human condition while also stringing together really entertaining stories.
— Jeff Nichols
It wasn't like I wanted to be the next Marc Andreessen, but it would be cool to be in the same place.
— Jawed Karim
People expect you to be doing something cool all the time. In a normal life, that's not happening!
— Kaia Gerber
My aspiration isn't to be famous; it's to design clothes. If that gets me attention at the end of the day, cool.
— Sofia Richie
My brother's my best friend, without a doubt. Me and my big sister get along so well. She moved to East London, though, so points off, but she's wicked. And then my little sister is a little genius. She's super talented and such a great person, always been far more mature and cool than me.
— Will Poulter
When the NBA adopted their uniform that they had to wear, I thought that was very interesting. And you see the way NBA players dress: It's very cool.

I am young, and I am cool, and I want to wear cool clothes!

I'm just trying to work out a way to be a singer and to create cool content. I'm willing to do that as an entertainer. But I'm not willing to give up my actual self.
— Sia
I wasn't the cool kid in school, but I wasn't the lame one. I knew I wasn't cool, so I called myself lame, and that's what made me cool in front of the cool kids.
— Astro
I laugh at what I used to think was cool when I was growing up. In all seriousness, I thought having braces was cool.
— Rachel Nichols
I think the whole thing, boy band, it's a little bit of a dirty word. They say it's not a good thing to be in a boy band. We want to change that. We want to make the boy band cool. It's not just about dancing and dressing the same.
— Liam Payne
And of course I've got kids of my own now, and they love me being in the Harry Potter films. I'm now part of a phenomenon. You become incredibly cool to your kids, and you get a young fan base. So you became the cool dad at school. You're suddenly hip.
— Gary Oldman
I used to be a cool chick but I'm not anymore.
— Britney Spears
As a kid, I did want to be an old-timer, since they were the ones with the big stories and the cool clothes. I wanted to go there. Now, I guess I want to bring that with me and go back in time.
— Tom Waits
Long intros are cool because there's a little bit of anticipation, you know?
— Miranda Lambert

— Frank Ocean
It's pretty cool to see how far music can take you.
— Luke Bryan
I was the kid growing up who would play with G.I. Joes in a pink dress and then run off to play with my Barbies. It doesn't mean that I'm less girly, it just means that I have this other side of me. It's kinda cool to be a little bit of both, I think.
— Adrianne Palicki
Music's been with me from the get-go. It was always around me as a kid. Dad got me my first guitar when I was 11 and, at school, if you wanted to be cool you had to be in a band.
— Julian Lennon
I think part of picking where you live in New York is accepting who you are. Really looking at yourself and going, 'Yeah, I'm not cool enough for the West Village.'
— Tina Fey
It's very important to enjoy time alone with yourself and just existing, because existence is kind of cool.
— Angel Olsen
What's cool about Spider-Man is that it's everybody - anyone, you put on the suit, anyone believes that you're Spider-Man. That's what's charming about the character. He's anyone. He's a huge nerd that ends up being this huge superhero.
— Jake Epstein
Being cool is when you win, you don't get too happy; and when you lose, you don't get too mad.
— Ice T
I was feeling like a real misfit in middle school, but when I saw 'Wicked,' it made me feel really cool for being different... and you can carve that in stone!
— Jennifer Damiano
Photographing friends means that there's a spontaneity to the images. I have a lot of love for my friends and family, and I love taking cool pictures of them.
— Suki Waterhouse
The concept of the robot encapsulates both aspects of technology. On one hand it's cool, it's fun, it's healthy, it's sexy, it's stylish. On the other hand it's terrifying, it's alienating, it's addictive, and it's scary. That has been the subject of much science-fiction literature.
— Thomas Bangalter
It's pretty cool I'm known for FIFA. If you think of KSI, people instantly think, 'Ah, that FIFA YouTuber.' I didn't think I would be up there as the ambassador of FIFA on YouTube, but I'll take it.
— KSI
I never panic when I get a wasp at my ear. As soon as you strike out, they'll sting you. So just stay cool.
— Martin McGuinness
At a young age, it is hard to be different from the crowd. I want to encourage young girls that it is cool to be different. Young women should be pleased they have something unique and make the most of their talent.
— Bryony Shaw
There are some parts of my life that are wonderful, and it's amazing to get to go to cool events and award shows and things like that, but I think the outside perception is that your life just changes overnight and you wear Dolce and Gabanna suits and drive a Mercedes. But life's just not like that.
— Taron Egerton
Pluto is still active four and a half billion years into its history. It was expected that small planets like Pluto would cool off long ago and not still be showing geological activity. Pluto is, in fact, showing numerous examples of geological activity on a massive scale across the planet.
— Alan Stern
I do value the respect I get from my contemporaries, but to have Oasis cover my song, to have Puff Daddy cover a song, to have Goldie come along to my gigs - that's where my ego is at. To have my fellow musicians like what I do, that's very cool.
— David Bowie
I loved the world of roller derby because I thought it was such an empowering metaphor, that you get out there and do it. It's such a rocker, athletic, capable, cool exhibitionist sport; it's about this great sort of camaraderie.
— Drew Barrymore
There's something about girls together, uniting, that I just thought was cool.
— Charli XCX
I've always loved Jennifer Lopez, and I think, as an entertainer, she is a great example of a strong woman that is also very levelheaded and cool and produces her own content.
— Christina Milian
When I was a child, it was cool to be a scientist.
— Michio Kaku
I look at other people my age in this industry, other famous people my age, and they've just got famous friends. Which is cool, but I love being normal and just chilling at mine.
— Maisie Williams
A powerful person is equally cool with their flaws and things that aren't powerful about them at all.
— Omari Hardwick
What is cool today is not going to be cool tomorrow, and what wasn't cool yesterday is going to be cool tomorrow.
— Zendaya
I enjoy fashion photography and textiles, that whole aspect of it. As more of an art form, I like Proenza Schouler. Those guys are really cool because they seem to have an interesting approach to it all.
— Gia Coppola
I always say, 'If it looks good on a T-shirt, it would probably be a pretty cool title or cool song.'
— Cole Swindell
The challenge is to stay cool enough to handle the pressure in the moment so that you can succeed in the future.
— Jurgen Klopp
The softest thing I've ever heard are the wind chimes in my backyard. They are soft and cool and mellow.
— Ty Dolla Sign
I used to love to draw. I didn't want to go to art class because I felt that would be too corny when I was young, but architectural drafting was the cool thing to do because there was more precision. It taught me a lot about building and structures and doorways and frames and windowsills.
— Ice Cube
I don't mind The Boss. I think he's an honest guy. I have some of his records, not all of them. I've met a couple of the E-Street guys, and they seem really cool.
— Henry Rollins
In Israel, there's a lot to learn from anyone, because to live there you've got to deal with the truth. Things happen real fast. Your day goes from cool to catastrophic in one second. Israelis know that the cafe you're in could blow up, or the shopping mall, and they rock that.
— Henry Rollins
America was cool with Saddam Hussein when he was killing Iranians.
— Henry Rollins
I wonder what it's like to be from a state that is spread across a few islands way out in the Pacific Ocean, only added to the United States in 1959. Not only that but to be the birthplace of America's first black president? Pretty cool, I bet.
— Henry Rollins
Most Americans are very cool people.
— Henry Rollins
I get along with Australians really well. Everyone's usually really cool, and it's always a drag to leave.
— Henry Rollins
I hate painting with a broad brush, but I think the birther thing, at its root, is racist. The guy was born in Hawaii. A black guy is president. It's cool. Get over it. Just deal with it. There's nothing you could show these birther people that would shut them up.
— Henry Rollins
Imagine a 15-year-old kid saying, 'I have two moms - it's cool.' I don't fear that at all.
— Henry Rollins
I am not immune to the lure of a signed record, flier or set list. The fact that your music heroes potentially had, in their own hands, the record you now have in yours is kind of cool. When the musician has departed, it can give the thing a unique power.
— Henry Rollins
Horses and horsepower alike are about status and being cool.
— P. J. O'Rourke
I don't ever feel like the cool kid at the party, ever. It's like, 'Smile and be nice to everybody, because you were not invited to be here.'
— Taylor Swift
I think who you are in school really sticks with you. I don't ever feel like the cool kid at the party, ever. It's like, 'Smile and be nice to everybody, because you were not invited to be here.'
— Taylor Swift
It never mattered to me that people in school didn't think that country music was cool, and they made fun of me for it - though it did matter to me that I was not wearing the clothes that everybody was wearing at that moment. But at some point, I was just like, 'I like wearing sundresses and cowboy boots.'
— Taylor Swift
When I'm 40 and nobody wants to see me in a sparkly dress anymore, I'll be like: 'Cool, I'll just go in the studio and write songs for kids.'
— Taylor Swift
If someone has a really great boyfriend or career, I think, it's cool that happens.
— Taylor Swift
One of the biggest challenges we have, folks, is making liberty and freedom cool.
— Rush Limbaugh
The advent of cellphones may, in the end, be no more relevant than the ability of laptops to change our written documents into ones using cool new fonts.
— Douglas Coupland
I would like to fly in space. Absolutely. That would be cool. I used to just do personally risky things, but now I've got kids and responsibilities, so I can't be my own test pilot. That wouldn't be a good idea. But I definitely want to fly as soon as it's a sensible thing to do.
— Elon Musk
So there's nothing more provocative than taking a genre that everybody who's cool hates - and then making it cool.
— Lady Gaga
The thing is, it's not uncool to worry about people who seem like they're going on the wrong path. There's nothing cool about being self-destructive.
— Patti Smith
It's not uncool to worry about people who seem like they're going on the wrong path. There's nothing cool about being self-destructive.
— Patti Smith
That's one of the cool things about fame. You have an affect on society and where it goes.
— Jeff Bridges
I have a cycle that is not particularly cool, but it's a cycle: trash myself to reward myself.
— Jeff Bridges
My mother and my father were very nurturing and wonderful examples of how to live your life. I really had a cool foundation.
— Jeff Bridges
I grew up not really having anything, so the idea that I can take care of my family and my friends now is a really cool bonus.
— Katy Perry
I don't like the ironic tone that our pop culture, in the world, has taken. Everything is 'ironic.' Everything is 'cool.'
— Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
You make yourself broad. You make yourself appealing. 'Hey, y'all, I'm cool with everybody.' That's my message.
— Kevin Hart
I'm not cool enough to hang out with any rock stars. Jay-Z doesn't come over to my house. I don't hang out with Ted Nugent.
— Ted Cruz
London Fashion Week isn't the most organised, but I don't mind that. It's such an exciting place - it's small and cool.
— Carine Roitfeld
When I was a kid, maybe 11, I remember saying, 'When I grow up I wanna have enough money to buy a really cool car, because I won't.'
— Joss Whedon
I am not a fan of referencing your own work when it's in a different universe than what you're doing. That, to me, is a wink at the audience, and winking isn't actually cool when you're not, like, 10.
— Joss Whedon
It's only recently women got to be action heroes on TV. Progress is slow, and often non-existent. There's plenty of cool comics with female characters... But all it takes is one Catwoman to set the cause back a decade.
— Joss Whedon
I was probably cool around the end of 2002.
— Martin Freeman
I don't like 'cool telly.'
— Martin Freeman
I'm not quite as cool as I would like to be, really.
— Ian Mckellen
My friends are people who like building cool stuff. We always have this joke about people who want to just start companies without making something valuable. There's a lot of that in Silicon Valley.
— Mark Zuckerberg
A lot of people are focused on taking over the world or doing the biggest thing and getting the most users. I think part of making a difference and doing something cool is focusing intensely.
— Mark Zuckerberg
My goal was never to make Facebook cool. I am not a cool person.
— Mark Zuckerberg
'Fast and Furious' is the only franchise that I've directed that I did not create from scratch. So it definitely was an eye-opening experience for me coming to that world. I had to be respectful of the roles that had been established by the filmmakers before me, and I was cool with that.
— James Wan
My low-budget films, more than anything, taught me that you've got to create cool, likable characters and great stories because, if you don't, it doesn't matter how cool it might look - no one is going to care about it.
— James Wan
I always say, what is cool for me with 'The Conjuring', is it's not just another scary set piece or another scary case; it's more about what I can do with the characters of Ed and Lorraine Warren.
— James Wan
There's something very cool about that indie spirit that I try to hang on to even now with the bigger films that I'm working on.
— James Wan
I grew up loving X-Men, Spider-Man and Batman. Those are obviously the key big ones, but there's always something kind of cool about Aquaman still, the idea of creating a huge world that is on our planet.
— James Wan
I won't do things for money. I can't. So I'll hold out and say, in my mind, 'There's a really cool diner down the street from my house. They make really good pancakes; I'd be happy doing that.'
— Brie Larson
The cool thing about designers is they have very specific points of view, and because my inspiration is always changing, it's easy to go, 'This feels right.' But just because I wear fancy dresses on weekends doesn't mean in my heart of hearts I'm not a jeans and T-shirt person.
— Brie Larson
I have snakes, three sharks, moray eels, piranhas, five scorpions and a bird spider. All of them are predators. They are dangerous but it's cool to have strong and powerful pets.
— Tracy Morgan
Cool is the enemy of funny. You can't be cool and be funny at the same time. Only Eddie Murphy could do that.
— Tracy Morgan
The truth is - I found myself doing these huge action-adventure movies, and um, and which are cool man. And I really love doing them. And thankfully I haven't had too much dialogue, because if I had I would have really made a mess of it. You know what I mean?
— Orlando Bloom
Elves are cool, man.
— Orlando Bloom
I wondered how they would top the Pirates and skeletons and moonlight, because that's a pretty cool concept.
— Orlando Bloom
I'm trying to mix the cool, independent stuff with the big stuff, but it's been difficult finding the right roles. It's been an interesting ride as far as my career pendulum is concerned.
— Orlando Bloom
Steve McQueen is my style hero. He's just cool, isn't he?
— Orlando Bloom
When I realized that if I was an actor, I could be any character I wanted instead of just one particular, I was like, 'Wow, that's cool.'
— Orlando Bloom
I used to ride motorbikes and drive cars like everything was a racetrack it was ridiculous. It wasn't because I thought it was cool it was just because I loved living on the edge. But I've chilled. 
— Orlando Bloom
The nerds are the ones that make the films and do loads of other really cool stuff in their life.
— Daniel Radcliffe
I've never been one of the cool people at school, but then again, I don't get the people who are cool. It's not that I don't like them, it's just that they don't interest me.
— Daniel Radcliffe
I met Elijah Wood once, I met Peter Jackson, I met Orlando Bloom, and they're all really cool.
— Daniel Radcliffe
A part of me wants to sort of try and sound cool and feed this myth that I'm some sort of glamorous lothario, but I was raised by women - my mother and her mother and my aunts - and as a result, most of my friends have always been women.
— Moby
I recently discovered Artkive, a wonderful app that allows you to archive your child's artwork and create cool gifts like photo albums, mugs, mousepads, etc. It's very easy to use, and since Arabella is such a talented artist, I'm a pro!
— Ivanka Trump
If you could drive straight down, into a tunnel bored through the crust of the planet, you'd hit this molten mess in about an hour. It's called the asthenosphere - a sluggish sea, several hundred miles thick, on which floats the Earth's cool epidermis - the so-called tectonic plates.
— Seth Shostak
Plate tectonics is not all havoc and destruction. The slow movement of continents and ocean floors recycles carbon dioxide dissolved in the oceans back into the atmosphere. Without this slow speed carbon cycle, Earth's temperatures would cool dozens of degrees below your comfort zone.
— Seth Shostak
Gwen Stefani's style and flow I just love. She is so cool to me!
— Rita Ora
I'd love to be the female Kanye. I think he's so cool and effortless.
— Rita Ora
They're very, uh, you know, I don't come from the suburbs and a jolly, Disney type of lifestyle. I come from something totally different. And they're cool and bare minimum so it's not always a money issue for me.
— Shia LaBeouf
What's cool is when you're able to give your audience imagination and you don't have to cage them in like animals.
— Shia LaBeouf
