My father came from an intellectual and studious avenue as opposed to a brawler's avenue. So I had to go further afield and I brought all kinds of unscrupulous oiks back home - earless, toothless vagabonds - to teach me the arts of the old bagarre.
I'd like to think that the boring lady who's talking to me now is a lot sexier and more interesting than the one who's doing NPR. You know, studious and reserved, and - I bet you're a lot of fun at a party.
As much pains were taken to make me idle as were ever taken to make me studious.
After high school, I was going to move out to L.A. and try to pursue my dreams of acting. My parents said, 'That's fine. We support you, but you have to go to school,' which was fine because I'm a studious person anyway; I enjoy it.
Pop music for me was definitely escapist, but never studious.
Some are so very studious of learning what was done by the ancients that they know not how to live with the moderns.
I was very studious, too much. I would never go out at weekends. I was very serious. You should have seen me in class - I was blushing and sweating every time the teacher asked me something.
I was not a studious kid, and I struggled to find things that would command my attention and engage my ideas and energies.
I am still of opinion that only two topics can be of the least interest to a serious and studious mood - sex and the dead.
The earth was made so various, that the mind Of desultory man, studious of change, And pleased with novelty, might be indulged.
