I learned how to play the drums. When we were in pre-production, when we were still in LA, I had a couple of drum lessons and then some in Toronto. I got the one beat down and that was it.

I always tell people that if I move anywhere it would be Toronto.

I've been delighted by Cannes and Toronto but I keep saying I don't know how good we're going to be received in America because that's where it's most challenging
William Hurt

The single greatest moment of my life happened in Toronto, Canada!
Randy Orton

I've always been in love with that Delta-flavored music the music that came from Mississippi and Memphis and, especially, New Orleans. When I was 14, I was in a wanna-be New Orleans band in Toronto.
Robbie Robertson

Let Toronto become Milan. Montreal will always be Rome.
Jean Drapeau

Had I been in Toronto, I would certainly have been killed in this attack. In the room where I normally sleep, the flames and the smoke and the soot is such that the gases would have killed me.
Ernst Zundel

I cannot comment on a video that I have never seen or does not exist.
Rob Ford
12.
I'm from Toronto. It's a lot more laid back. When you are thrust into different environments, there is an odd adaptation period. And then there are times when unfair, unkind, untrue things are written about you. That bothers me less now.
Mike Myers

Me and Mr. Brainwash in Toronto signing his mural at Hard Candy Fitness Opening! #artforfreedom
Madonna Ciccone

Clearly, if Confederation is to survive another 100 years, Canada must find a national esprit de corps. Cohesion cannot depend indefinitely on hating Toronto.
Eric Nicol

Toronto is hard to capture in a few strokes.
Michael Helm

I have a movie coming out called Spun, which will be at the Toronto Film Fest.
Eric Roberts

Toronto is a kind of New York operated by the Swiss.
Peter Ustinov

I got back from Toronto, where they had a severe outbreak of SARS - you know, Severe Asian Racism Syndrome.
Margaret Cho

I remember listening to Cube's music when I was like 14 years old, my friends listening to it up in Toronto.
Scott Speedman
20.
In a sense Toronto feels like home to me.
Keir Dullea
21.
I am in Toronto, shooting a movie for NBC.
Paula Abdul
22.
I'm being told it saves money to shoot in Toronto, because of tax benefits, the crews are cheaper, but what I save in the bottom line, I lose in a million other ways.
Griffin Dunne
23.
The best part was the food. There are some great Italian restaurants we go to whenever we are in Toronto, so the eating was a definite highlight.
Mary-Kate Olsen
24.
With the fans and the Toronto Maple Leafs organization, the way I've been treated here has been awesome.
Mats Sundin
26.
It would have been worse if we hadn't blocked the kick after Toronto's second touchdown.
Alex Delvecchio

Dakota Goyo
28.
I have been dealing with back problems since 1995 when I was with the Blackhawks, and I've only missed part of one season because of it. That was last season in Toronto.
Ed Belfour
29.
I worked in Toronto for two days. And by work I mean sit in a trailer for 15 hours, say two lines, and leave.
Daniel Tosh
30.
I love that Toronto is demonstrating that a big, highly diverse, multicultural city can actually work and work well, if its residents have the attitude of Torontonians.
Roger Martin
31.
I'll be vilified if I shoot a film in Toronto for New York. And rightfully so!
Spike Lee
32.
I teach students that what people say about failure in politics is mostly wrong. People always told me, 'They'll praise you on your way up and kick you on your way down.' That wasn't my experience. I can't walk down the street in Toronto without someone coming up and saying hello.
Michael Ignatieff
33.
The novel is very much alive, indeed. In Toronto at the Sixth Annual International Festival of Authors (October 1985) I listened to novelists by the dozen.
William Golding
34.
If you're going to do a movie about the Village, it's pretty nice to shoot in the village and not be in Toronto.
Robin Williams
35.
Toronto is home; nothing beats home.
Ellen Wong
36.
I didn't realize Toronto was so beautiful. Everywhere you go you see beautiful architecture.
Kevin Costner
37.
I was going to have Brian La Croix do a cameo on Degrassi. But, unfortunately, the scheduling didn't work out. When I was in Toronto, they weren't shooting. To me, that would've been a pretty crazy meta experience.
Nick Kroll
38.
Toronto is a very multicultural city, a place of immigrants, like my parents.
Melanie Fiona
39.
I've lived in Forest Hill Village, Riverdale, Summerhill, The Annex and Cabbagetown. Finding the right neighbourhood fit in Toronto is only slightly less tricky than finding the right partner to share it with.
Andy Barrie
40.
It's like so great to be in Toronto and to see everything that's in the books and everything they reference and to be able to hang out in those places and go to those bookstores and those comic book stores and those music stores, and like have that, from the books onto the screen, is so cool and I'm glad to have been part of that.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
41.
Actually, I'm frequently described as the UK's only translator of Korean literature, but even that isn't accurate - Agnita Tennant is UK-based, Janet Poole is British though lives in Toronto, Brother Anthony was born here though is now a naturalised Korean citizen. There's also Chi-young Kim and Sora Kim-Russell, who are younger and do fiction for commercial houses.
Deborah Smith

Robert Rotenberg does for Toronto what Ian Rankin does for Edinburgh.
Jeffery Deaver
43.
For me, selfishly, Toronto is my favorite city in the world. It's the greatest city and you have the whole world here.
Kristen Hager
44.
A lot of the buildings [in Toronto] around Yonge and Bloor is the architectural equivalent of Kipper Ties and 8" collar points. It's ghastly and no amount of street-level retail glitz can lift it.
William Gibson
45.
The fact that over 50 per cent of the residents of Toronto are not from Canada, that is always a good thing, creatively, and for food especially. That is easily a city's biggest strength, and it is Toronto's unique strength.
Anthony Bourdain
46.
And Toronto's own Sergio Trujillo has redone his choreography totally, showing all the comical invention that we know he's capable of.
Richard Ouzounian
47.
I love Toronto. I love it. I love Toronto. I love Canada. I can't wait to get back. Can't wait to have some Timbits.
Aisha Tyler
48.
I used to go to Maple Leafs games all the time when Nic shot To Die For here in Toronto. This is a great city. I love it here.
Tom Cruise
50.
What strikes me about Toronto is that Toronto's great misfortune was to have too much money in the late 70s and early 80s, and consequently, it built in the style of those periods, which is hideous.
William Gibson
