Kelly Asbury
34

Gisele Bundchen
56

Aaron Patzer
62

Holly Hunter
81
The newly released movie ‘Noah’ features a retelling of the creation story that clearly depicts Darwinian evolution transforming a single-cell organism into a monkey. The movie also seems to show magic in scenes more reminiscent of the occult than of the Bible story.

One of the unique features of China is that, notwithstanding the fact that it has a population of 1.3 billion, around 92% regard themselves as Han Chinese. This is quite different from the world’s other most populous countries, such as India, the U.S. and Indonesia, which are ethnically diverse.

Jeanne Marie Laskas
87

‘Smash Bros.’ features a slew of modes as well, but we didn’t create them all under the idea that we want gamers to try every single one of them. I think it’s just fine if gamers enjoy the aspects of the game they like. It’s kind of a buffet-style approach.

Dia Mirza
93

98

Cheryl Ladd
105
Yeah, I was going to have no features on ‘Bulletproof.’ But I ended up putting Gucci Mane on it. That’s just my partner. He’s just one of my personal friends.

Christina Aguilera
108

109
In these times of stress, snark, division and despair, I still suspect that two of the most important features we possess are imagination and a capacity for goodness. Those are qualities for which we will be remembered most fondly.

Karyn Kusama
119
My concern is the really great concepts that are features, not companies. There isn’t enough advertising to support all those features, and in compression times, advertisers tend to flock to safe names and sites that have real traction.
Ross Levinsohn
120
That’s one reason I really love ‘Supergirl.’ It’s a great show for people to watch with their children – sons and daughters alike. It features strong female characters which is always something to appreciate.

Always feeling secondary and just being a voice rather than known as the song writer and artist… it’s been a challenge to even get music videos of most of the features I’m on, so I’m pleased people are starting to recognise me as an artist in my own right.
Becky Hill

Arab society features apartheid of women, apartheid of homosexuals, and apartheid of Christians, Jews, and democracy.
Yair Lapid
156
Don’t go into any store that features shopping bags that can stand on their own accord in the middle of a table. This sort of shopping bag denotes prices that will start chipping into your children’s college education fund. Avoid it.
Karen Bender
157
I wish to present myself in front of the camera, each time under the features of a different woman. I would like to live and apprehend the problems, the conflicts, the feelings and the impulses of women radically different from me.
Romy Schneider
158
‘The Levanter’ features some of the strongest action scenes to be found in Ambler – who can, in some of his fiction, stay in one place for a whole novel.
Alan Furst
159
I’m probably most inspired by good street style that features items I already own; it’s always great to see how another person wears something you have, which sort of reinvents it for you.
Leandra Medine
160
In features, we’re languid: we shoot one or two scenes over, like, three days. In TV, the pace is so different. You’re shooting ten scenes a day, going way into the future or way back into the past. It’s complete madness, and I’m just trying to keep up with this really electric pace.
Priyanka Chopra
161
Only by moving away from the comforts of your conference room to truly engage with and listen to your customers can you learn in depth about their problems, produce features to solve those problems, and learn what drives customers to recommend, approve, and purchase products.
Steve Blank
162
That’s always at the heart and soul of Disney’s features, the feeling of a family values.
Tia Carrere
163
I first wrote about Michael Jackson in the 1980s. His skin was growing paler, his features thinner, and his aura more feminine. Some called him a traitor to his race. Some fussed about his gender fluidity. I saw him as a post-modern shape-shifter. But the shifts grew more extreme and mysterious.
Margo Jefferson
164
I try to learn from both, from features and documentaries. In both cases you have to find a way to make the camera as discreet as possible, and flexible enough to be able to capture the moment when it happens. I know from documentary how to not have a preconceived idea of what the scene could be.
Michel Gondry
165
Relying on the face might be human nature – even babies prefer to look at attractive people. But, of course, judging someone based on the geometry of his features is, from a moral and legal standpoint, no better than judging him based on the color of his skin.
Paul Bloom
166
One of the most distinctive evolutionary features of human beings is our unusually long, protected childhood.
Alison Gopnik
167
Certainly jellyfish are seasonal, and owing to a complex range of environmental features there are years when they will appear in far greater numbers.
Steve Backshall
168
I ain’t here to argue about his facial features. Or here to convert atheists into believers. I’m just trying to say the way school need teachers the way Kathie Lee needed Regis that’s the way yall need Jesus.
Kanye West
169
I’m a fan of the old ‘Creature Features’ like ‘Critters,’ and ‘Gremlins’ and ‘Tremors.’ ‘Jaws’ is classic. It’s funny that I still like those films because I remember my mom would tease me about getting a pet Critter to keep under my bed.
Brooke Nevin
170
We had never before seen a place where European influence had not contributed to smooth and soften the rough features of uncultivated nature. The prospect of Rangoon, as we approached, was quite disheartening.
Adoniram Judson
171
Your fragile mind can’t have forgotten the terrifying technothriller series known ‘Scorpion’. Because it features the worst hacking scenes ever broadcast in any medium.
Annalee Newitz
172
Two things you almost always see when ‘MTV Cribs’ features a black superstar: a poster of Tony Montana and a poster of the Godfather. Montana and Michael Corleone, though fictional, are considered heroes by young black men everywhere.
Jemele Hill
173
‘Proximity’ features four legends and four rising stars who each bring their own athleticism, thoughts, and experiences in this behind-the-scenes look at modern surfing.
Taylor Steele
174
For some, a perfect body means having muscle mass and fat in proportion to one’s height. For others, it may mean more than just muscle mass and body fat. For me, it’s also about having amazing features.
Sherlyn Chopra
175
I contend that every woman has the right to feel beautiful, no matter how scrambled her features, or how indifferent her features.
Marie Dressler
176
I think it’s important to be extremely proud of one’s origins, especially when you are a foreign actress with ethnic features.
Freida Pinto
177
I’m in the entertainment business, and I make commercially entertaining animated features.
Kelly Asbury
178
I got plenty of grief for ‘Blackwater,’ because in the books, there’s this huge chain across the harbor that features prominently in the battle. And we simply weren’t able to do it with our budget and do it any justice, so we had to lose it.
Neil Marshall
179
I will give 100 per cent and play with my life in every game. That’s one of my main features as a player.
Diego Godin
180
My style is in the 21st century. If you look at the process, it goes from photography through Photoshop, where certain features are heightened, elements of the photo are diminished. There is no sense of truth when you’re looking at the painting or the photo or that moment when the photo was first taken.
Kehinde Wiley
181
There is no more reason why the features belonging to a picture should be distorted for the purpose of such imaginative suggestion than that the poet’s metaphors should spoil his words for the ordinary uses of man.
William H. Hunt
182
I’ve seen animation features just languish until the right combination of things come along to keep it alive.
Kelly Asbury
183
The best seat in the house often depends on the ballet. For instance, much of the first act of ‘The Nutcracker’ is domestic and small scale, so it’s great to sit up close. But the second act features elaborate scenery and choreography, which are better to observe from a distance.
Robert Gottlieb
184
I think it would be lovely to see some features on a disc of ‘The Rocketeer,’ with some reminiscing. I think that would be dynamite.
Billy Campbell
185
Plumage features constitute a major component of courtship signals.
Peter R. Grant
186
One of the noxious features of Obamacare was its forced march into a single, federally designed package of health benefits.
Scott Gottlieb
187
I have pretty defined features: huge brows, very small eyelids, and a chunky nose. I love them all, but they’re definitely not the easiest things to work with when it comes to makeup, so I’ve really had to practice and see what I like on myself!
James Charles
188
I sort of forgot about ‘Z Channel’ after it went off the air in 1989, but once Jason Resnick of Focus Features made the suggestion, I became obsessed all over again. I still am. I’ll probably be this way until I’m 80, babbling about ‘Z Channel.’
Alexandra Cassavetes
189
Somebody with Debbie Reynolds’ features doesn’t get cast as the Wicked Witch.
Alan Rickman
190
Reducing a product’s definition to a list of features and functions ignores the real opportunity – orchestrating technological capability to serve human needs and goals.
Alan Cooper
191
And over the course of the last six years, as I’ve directed more features and commercials, I’ve become better at articulating exactly how I want the audience to feel.
Jason Reitman
192
When I recall today my early youth, I should take the boy that I then was, with the exception of a few individual features, for a different person, were it not for the existence of the chain of memories.
Ernst Mach
193
The classics of Marxism, while fully appreciating the significance of the Darwinian theory, pointed out the errors of which Darwin was guilty. Darwin’s theory, though unquestionably materialist in its main features, is not free from some serious errors.
Trofim Lysenko
194
It’s really more convenient for people to have one app on their phone that is the go-to for that activity. We see an opportunity as we add more services and features to Robinhood to really be on that one app for all customers’ finances.
Baiju Bhatt
195
So many features at Sundance seemed to be powered more on the director’s need to be a director than any particular story.
Jill Soloway
196
My title is intended to suggest that the community of scientists is organized in a way which resembles certain features of a body politic and works according to economic principles similar to those by which the production of material goods is regulated.
Michael Polanyi
197
You want to do a few things really well because you want to come out with a product that is fully baked, even though it may be lacking in a few features or whatever, rather than the one that’s all-achieving but not doing anything too well.
Ram Shriram
198
Physics is based on the assumption that certain fundamental features of nature are constant.
Rupert Sheldrake
199
I think it’s important to accentuate your features, and a lip liner does that. There’s an instant change that makes you feel beautiful right away.
Heart Evangelista

It was a shock to people of the nineteenth century when they discovered, from observations science had made, that many features of the biological world could be ascribed to the elegant principle of natural selection.
