My big break was really Liz Meriwether saw me in a movie called ‘Paper Heart’ and really liked it, and then saw me in a movie called ‘Ceremony’ because she knew Max Winkler and said, ‘I want you to be in ‘No Strings Attached,’ but you gotta audition for it.’ From that it was easier for her to get me in ‘New Girl.’

Patricio Freire
Mel will always be Mad Max, and me, I will always be a Number.
Patrick McGoohan
I collect… for a long time, I collected Nike Air Max 90s, this specific shoe. And it really is nerdy, because collecting sneakers is not that nerdy, but if you don’t wear them, and you keep the box fresh, if you’re that fanatical about it, then you leap several categories into super-dork, and that’s the way I was.
Charlie Hunnam
All eyes turned to the United States after countries around the world banned the Boeing 737 Max 8 and 9 following the deadly plane crash in Ethiopia. But President Donald Trump didn’t follow suit at first, even as the pressure built.

Written by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Donald Margulies and directed by Sundance nominee James Ponsoldt, ‘The End of the Tour’ is a terrific film, among the year’s best with its two-man tarantella of wall-to-wall talk – and I watched it through my fingers as though it were Mad Max.

The four movies I can remember seeing as a kid were ‘The Elephant Man,’ ‘The Magnificent Seven,’ ‘The Good, The Bad and The Ugly’ and ‘Mad Max!’ Two of those are westerns. So the western genre is emblazoned on my memory from childhood, and those are two great movies.
Casey Affleck
I’m happy doing what I’m doing. I do think, though, there were great comic actors like Thora Hird and Max Wall who only got taken seriously when they did straight roles at the end of their careers.
Diane Morgan
I thought Charlize Theron was awesome in ‘Mad Max,’ and that was a very masculine kind of hero.

My friend had told me about ‘Stranger Things’ and how I had to watch it. I was like, ‘OK, I will!’ I binged it in, like, a day and was like, ‘Oh my gosh, Mom, you need to watch this show. Everyone needs to watch this.’ A week later, I got the breakdown for Max. A month later, I got the part.

I’m the only one in America who belongs to the ‘Cure Cancer’ party, so if you give money to cancer, like Harry Reid and Max Baucus, some of these guys really helped us raise big money for cancer, I give them big money for their reelections.
Jon Huntsman, Sr.
I think the best way to find out about something is to try to do it to the max. A lot of people take up a hobby or sport and then find an excuse not to carry on with it. Once I start something, I won’t stop until I’m as good at it as I’ll ever be.
Bruce Dickinson

Barry Bonds
I think with the whole revenue deal, everybody from top to bottom probably gets impacted by it. It’s just a different era of basketball now with contracts and money. Teams being able to max out players as much as they can, that helps a team stack their team like Golden State.
Jae Crowder
I know in my training, especially when I’m building up to a big ‘max,’ I can take as long as I want to be ready for that lift and mentally prepare for it. In the contest, some of that goes out the window. When your name is called and the bar is loaded, you’ve got to go whether you’re ready or not.

Zara Larsson
Did Mad freakin’ Max just call me irritating?

The brilliance of Max Brooks is that he always quotes authorities at the back of his books that never existed. Like a Russian professor he made up that validates a story or character.

The cliches are all true! My son Max has just turned two, and he’s literally turned into this driven young man overnight! The terrible twos are not a myth, but he’s such a laugh to be around.

Jim Root
Hugh Grant will always be associated with his scandal, and so will Max Mosley.
Ruth Rendell
When women do take on traditionally male subjects, certain male colleagues can seem affronted that a woman has dared to trespass on their subject. I could given you dozens of examples, but here’s one: Max Hastings’s review in the ‘Sunday Times’ in 2009 of Miranda Carter’s book ‘The Three Emperors’.
Amanda Foreman
So much of ‘Doomsday’ is taken from the early ‘Mad Max’ films.

I’ve pictured myself fighting a whole bunch of people. Not only the Max Holloway, but also Conor, Cejudo, Korean Zombie, even Khabib Nurmagomedov.
Alexander Volkanovski

I’d rather have a driver that was like that, that had that passion and that fire in his belly and you can channel that. The sport’s crying out for more drivers like Max Verstappen.
Christian Horner
I felt (a) it was a great role and (b) I wanted to stay in town. I wanted to stop going to these four month and five month gigs up in Toronto or Montreal or Vancouver or down in Mexico. I wanted to be around my son, Max. This came along and I was like, ‘I really want to play this guy!’
John C. McGinley
Humans recognize effort, and that’s what I do. I give max effort.

We’ve always said that it doesn’t say ‘Daniel Ricciardo Racing’ or ‘Max Verstappen Racing’ – it says Red Bull Racing.
Christian Horner
I’m at the point, frankly, where I’d rather deal with a misogynist with a copy of Tucker Max’s book in his backpack over someone in sensitive emo-boy clothing, because both are misogynists, only the one with the backpack is more honest about just how scared of women he is.
Julie Klausner
I don’t particularly like babies. I don’t mind them for about four minutes. That’s my max. After that I can’t quite see what everyone’s fussing about.

Nike Air Max 95’s – I wear them almost every day. They’re super comfortable. I get a lot of gifts, so I don’t really need to shop. But if I had to choose my favourite brand, it would be Nike. Nike is the best.
Jay Park
My basic influence had probably been Peter Max.
Jean-Michel Basquiat
I have no time for real horses, so I have a plastic horse. Large size. Called Max Von Sydow. For photographs it looks real. If I do a photo shoot and it stands in the background, you think it’s a horse. A horse is a horse.
Udo Kier
I would really love to work with Max Martin.
Poppy
My brother Max is three and half years younger than me but more of a fussy eater.

Overall, I’m happy how ‘Original Sin’ has come together. It’s an amalgam of all I’ve done at Marvel, mixing the gritty, violent ‘Punisher Max’ stuff with the zany, light-hearted ‘Wolverine & The X-Men’ work.
Jason Aaron
Air Max is from when we were running the streets. It was comfortable to wear in London, whether you were going out to a club or kicking a ball in the streets. Those kinds of things stick in my mind from the young, magical, fantasy years of my life.
Skepta
I’m a max player. Don’t get mad at me because I’m telling you what’s real. One plus one is two, all day long, and it’s never gonna change. And that’s factorial.
Stephon Marbury
I’m heavy into ‘Max Payne 3’. That’s a good one. I like any of the fighting games and all of the ‘Tekken’ and ‘Street Fighter’ series.
Ne-Yo
During my military service, I performed a sketch in which I played a flea called Max. So when critics kept misspelling my name, I decided to change it and thought, ‘Ah! Max!’
Max von Sydow
Even just my basics are so effective against a guy like Max Holloway.
Alexander Volkanovski
I’ll often order a cortado and stand there quizzing the poor barista about the extraction time, how much pressure they are applying and how many grams are in it. I am that guy. It’s reprehensible to the max, but it’s how I go through my life.

Heisenberg, Max Plank and Einstein, they all agreed that science could not solve the mystery of the universe.
Harry Dean Stanton
For me, it’s always been one of my pet peeves to keep people engaged and talking, and just always being interested in what I have going on. To keep the level of creativity always turned up to the max.

My goal was always to get better roles, and in my case, performing on stage really led to great opportunities. My breakthrough came when I did Calder Willingham’s ‘End as a Man’ on stage and was spotted by Max Arnow, who’d been the casting chief for Columbia.
Robert Vaughn
If you look at my personal library, you will notice that it ranges from Henry James to Steig Larsson, from Margaret Atwood to Max Hastings. There’s Jane Austen and Tom Perrotta and volumes of letters from Civil War privates. It’s pretty eclectic.
Chris Bohjalian
Then there’s going to be another project I am involved with, in fact, I’m going back to film it next week. It’s a game for the Internet called Advance Warriors, and my character is Max, who is blind, but he has special powers. It will be a new game played on the Internet.
Jeremy Bulloch
So I told Robert from the start that if we couldn’t get Charles and Max to take part, but especially Charles, that I didn’t want to make the film. So would he call his mother and talk to Charles and see if Charles would at all be interested.
Terry Zwigoff
I like Air Max 90s; those are usually my go-to. I feel you can wear them with jeans, you can wear them with sweats, you can wear them with anything.
Sue Bird
I don’t believe in anarchy, because it will ultimately amount to the power of the bully, with weapons. Gandhi is my life’s inspiration: passive resistance. I don’t want to live in the Thunderdome with Mad Max.
John Lydon
The Max 10 will provide customers with even more flexibility in terms of airplane range and higher seat count.
Dennis Muilenburg
People are asking that question again if Max is being too tough on his equipment, but that’s complete nonsense. He can’t overdrive, he can’t break the material. We all know what it is: it’s just the equipment that isn’t good enough.
Jos Verstappen
In America, when I first came here, they were used to wearing more make-up – thicker foundation, more Max Factor, that sort of thing. But you have to know who you are and what you look like: if you know yourself a little bit, you don’t need to follow trends.
Francois Nars
This industry can take you in and spit you out. It’s overwhelming. But I keep my feet on the ground, my Air Max on the gravel.
Barry Keoghan
