Aaron Spelling
A show that no one thought had a chance has just finished its fifth year: Charmed. I think it's tougher for the younger networks, so I think they have a little more patience for the sake of the show. But who knows?
Aaron Spelling
But it's true, when you see some television, you carry it with you. It's like 90210. Tell me what young shows were being done then... We were thrilled about the ratings around the world.
Aaron Spelling
But, I don't know, the violence, I can't even talk about. We don't do a lot of violent shows. When I started in television, breaking a pencil was a violent act.
Aaron Spelling
I don't remember a drama on TV that had shown a couple could be married but still love each other very much, spend every day as if they were still on their honeymoon, be sensuous, and have fun together.
Aaron Spelling
I love my wife, she deserves anything and everything.
Aaron Spelling
I must tell you, I haven't done the drug problem that is faced by cops and people on the border. It's a hard show to do, but I think it's going to say a lot about drugs and the problems related to them. I just hope people can watch it, it's a pretty strong show.
Aaron Spelling
I think there are two ways to depict a family. One is what it's really like, and one is what the audience would like it to be. Between you and me, I think the second one is what I would prefer.
Aaron Spelling
I'll tell you what I miss most. What I would love to do, more than anything, is just anthologies. With an anthology you can tell any story and be in every division of television. We don't have any anthologies anymore, do we?
Aaron Spelling
It's been a straight strip, I must tell you, I've enjoyed it all the way. If I'm saying things to make it sound like it's hard, hard work, it's not. It's beautiful work. It's fun work. It's everything you'd ever want to do.
Aaron Spelling
It's OK to do cute little things like kissing a turtle, but you can't kiss another person because he's a different color? Give me a break. And you have to remember, I'm from Dallas, Texas.
Aaron Spelling
Now I've even gotten to running out to the fan buses that pass by our house, so I can talk to the people. I think I'm trying to gather fans, frankly. They're very, very nice people - they really understand. It's fun talking to them.
Aaron Spelling
Nowadays, people always say, how come he's doing such young shows? But they never mention The Mod Squad. I was very proud of that show. It's the first time an African-American guy kissed a white girl.
Aaron Spelling
One thing my wife says is bad about me, is that I still care too much.
Aaron Spelling
Right now I'm doing four shows at a time, trying to read four outlines every week, four scripts every week, and watching four rough cuts; it's a lot of good work. It's fun to do it, but it does wear you out.
Aaron Spelling
There are a couple of things that I'm sure people don't think are important, but I do. I don't like hair changes unless there's a reason for it. Clothing - I don't like to see an outfit worn more than one time in an hour - you can wear it again a few weeks later.
Aaron Spelling
We do 32 episodes a season and will have shot 267 episodes by the end of the ninth season... It's impossible to sell that many episodes in the foreign market.
Aaron Spelling
When we did Dynasty, it was the clothes. I think the clothes affected every woman around the world. I got so many letters, I think we made the designer a millionaire!
Aaron Spelling
You can't predict a show, that is the damndest thing, you can't predict if a show is going to work or not until it's on the air.
Aaron Spelling
You know what shows today are missing? Stars.
Aaron Spelling

Jessica Lange
Acceptance and tolerance and forgiveness, those are life-altering lessons.
Jessica Lange
Allow the diversity to exist. There is nothing wrong with it. Hell, we put up with the religious right-we can put up with transgendered human beings.
Jessica Lange
At a certain age, death becomes familiar to you-or a loss becomes familiar-the tragedies that are more commonplace in life.
Jessica Lange
Because Shakespeare's language is so expansive, we're under this misconception that it's difficult. But I discovered that it's easy because it's so brilliantly written. The words are perfect, and the language is intelligent and very emotional.
Jessica Lange
Families survive, one way or another. You have a tie, a connection that exists long after death, through many lifetimes.
Jessica Lange
For me, nothing has ever taken precedence over being a mother and having a family and a home.
Jessica Lange
I am tortured when I am away from my family, from my children. I am horribly guilt-ridden.
Jessica Lange
I had never done Shakespeare before, but I don't think you can be an actor and not do it. There were moments when I thought, I'm just not going to be able to pull this off.
Jessica Lange
I have been a waitress, and I was a damn fine waitress too, let me tell you.
Jessica Lange
I love being a mother. I loved being a daughter, a sister, a wife. I love being a woman with men. I love having given birth.
Jessica Lange
I never felt like I belonged in Minnesota when I was growing up there. That's why I was out the door as soon as I turned 18.
Jessica Lange
I worked on my voice for Sweet Dreams, but only to match my speaking voice to Patsy's actual singing voice. That was my way into that character.
Jessica Lange
I've been thinking a lot about next year, which will be the first time in 25 years that I don't have a child at home.
Jessica Lange
I've got nothing left to lose at this point. The work I've done is out there.
Jessica Lange
In families there is always the mythology. My father died when my kids were quite young still, and yet they still tell his stories. That is how a person lives on.
Jessica Lange
It comes down to something really simple: Can I visualize myself playing those scenes? If that happens, then I know that I will probably end up doing it.
Jessica Lange
It was easier to do Shakespeare than a lot of modern movie scripts that are so poorly written.
Jessica Lange
One of the things I love about acting is that it reveals a certain something about yourself, but it doesn't reveal your own personal story.
Jessica Lange
Sometimes parts just come along when it's the perfect time for you to do them.
Jessica Lange
Sometimes the odds are against you-the director doesn't know what the hell he's doing, or something falls apart in the production, or you're working with an actor who's just unbearable.
Jessica Lange

Ashley Taylor Judd
A lot of people over the years have been doing yoga and I think even more these days are expressing an interest in it. So there are a lot of manifestations of spirituality here in town.
Ashley Judd
Abstinence, being faithful and correct and consistent condom use are the only ways to successfully reach everyone when discussing HIV prevention. I believe that the abstinence message alone does not solve the AIDS epidemic.
Ashley Judd
And it blew my mind when I started to get wind of the fact that they actually liked me being around. That was humbling, because Kentucky basketball is a big deal, and I am not the biggest fan - I am just the most notorious one.
Ashley Judd
And of course there's so much music in and around our family. I had a piano during Christmas because it's obviously useful through the season. There are so many people, songwriters, who are around.
Ashley Judd
Both my husband and I give a lot of ourselves in what we do because that is our public lives; but in my private life, I have an intrinsic right to be left alone.
Ashley Judd
Everything I've done has been personally fun, important, and meaningful to me.
Ashley Judd
I can't think of anything I want and need that I don't already have but at the same time, I'm not sated.
Ashley Judd
I did a lot of hiking and I loved it.
Ashley Judd
I get lonely when I'm a Playstation widow.
Ashley Judd
I have a lot of variety within me, and the dream role, I think, is actually a compilation of parts that express different aspects of my persona and personal interests.
Ashley Judd
I have a responsibility to nurture and shepherd my talent and when I'm living the parts of my life not related to that I feel I have the right to be left alone.
Ashley Judd
I think it's easy for me to connect to some people, and I don't know if that's the same thing as falling in love whereas before, I might have said it was.
Ashley Judd
I think that being perceptive and having interests is nothing but an asset.
Ashley Judd
I think that we give the impression, to carry on your metaphor, that we go a little faster than we actually do. I'm fairly lazy so I'm always interested in slowing down.
Ashley Judd
I think that, as with marriage, you just know when it's time to have kids.
Ashley Judd
I was always told I was special. And I was also assured that I had a gift and a purpose.
Ashley Judd
I've always been crazy for the American songbook.
Ashley Judd
I've been devoted to Alison Krauss for many, many years.
Ashley Judd
It's funny, though, because when I first started going to races after we met, I was extremely nervous. It's like being backstage and hoping you don't trip over something or break an amp or accidentally speak into a live microphone, so I was really hesitant.
Ashley Judd
It's up to us to take pop culture back and to express quality and dignity for both boys and girls.
Ashley Judd

Martin Lawrence
I don't want to sound facetious, but humour is the key to the soul. You know what I mean?
Martin Lawrence
I'm most proud of the blessings that God has bestowed upon me, in my life. He's given me the vision to truly see that you can fall down, but you can still get back up. Hopefully I'll learn from my mistakes and have the opportunity to strengthen and improve the next thing I do.
Martin Lawrence
If somebody pisses me off and I understand it ain't personal then I'll go to another place and I'll meditate.
Martin Lawrence

Sarah Michelle Gellar
And I don't know what I'd do at a fraternity party. All that might be a little lost on me.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
As with anything, you need to keep your creative juices flowing and keep the character interesting.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Because Buffy really has become the straight man, every once in a while it's nice to be the one that tells the joke and it's nice to be the one that is the joke and it's nice to do something that's a little bit different.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Being a teen idol is what I've waited for my whole life.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Being an actor gives you a chance to play all kinds of roles, very moving and dramatic on one project, silly and girlish on another. That's the most interesting thing out this business, you get to keep reinventing yourself.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
But there are still only certain film genres where a woman can stand out, be heroic, be the centerpiece.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
How can women be as thin as we are? We have personal trainers to work us out. We have specially prepared meals.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
I also think it was important for me and Freddie to be able to have a lot of time to share our lives at the beginning of our marriage rather than my coming home at 9 or 10 at night from the set. Things have really worked out for the best for both of us.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
I also want the chance to work with some of the best actors in the business, because that's where you can learn so much by just being on a set and getting a feel for how they approach their role and how they work with you.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
I don't smoke, don't drink much, and go to the gym five times a week. I live a healthy lifestyle and feel great. I can run a marathon, you know.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
I don't understand why James Bond has to be a man all the time. When Pierce Brosnan retires, why not one of us?
Sarah Michelle Gellar
I like food. I like eating. And I don't want to deprive myself of good food.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
I love Australia. My dream would be to have a place to live there and be able to commute back and forth.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
I think actually what I'm going to do when I'm done and take my next vacation, is I'm going to go over and start unions in Japan. I'm going to unionize Japan. Because the way they work those crews is so criminal. There's no overtime, so they can just keep going.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
I think it's a mistake if people just fall in love and think that that's the only thing you need to keep you happy. There's a lot more to being with someone than just love.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
I wouldn't change Buffy for anything and I wouldn't change the course in which she has evolved but it is nice to be able to do something that is a little different.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
I'm from New York, I make kind of somewhat maybe lewd, at times - maybe some would say dirty - jokes. But in jest.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
I've always been fascinated by Asian culture, and I love that women can play the lead in a horror film.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
In television, women can really run anything. It can be a comedy, it can be a drama, it can be genre, it can be anything. But in films, women are still getting to the top.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
It used to be only on TV that women could lead, that a show could be based on a woman.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Just because you donate sperm does not make you a father. I don't have a father. I would never give him the credit or acknowledge him as my father.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Our bodies are machines and have to be functional, and to do that they have to be fed properly.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
The episodes all blend together for me, so I don't remember. I can't even remember what I had for breakfast this morning. I always feel I must be such a disappointment to them.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
The thing about Buffy and Spike is they understand each other on a level that nobody else understands her.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
There's a part of me that will always believe that Angel is Buffy's true love. That there will be a piece of her heart that will always be with him for the rest of her life.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Ultimately, I want to have a good career and do interesting work.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Well, that's the old story I heard about the Jackie Chan films. That, like, Jackie Chan will just keep going and when crew members drop he just replaces them. I don't know if that's true but after having worked in Japan I believe it might be true.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
You're forced to think about what your goals are and you clarify them because you're taking this journey with another person and you need to be open with your partner.
Sarah Michelle Gellar

David Letterman
A lot of folks are still demanding more evidence before they actually consider Iraq a threat. For example, France wants more evidence. And you know I'm thinking, the last time France wanted more evidence they rolled right through Paris with the German flag.
David Letterman
Congratulations are in order for Woody Allen - he and Soon Yi have a brand new baby daughter. It's all part of Woody's plan to grow his own wives.
David Letterman
Dick Cheney said he was running again. He said his health was fine, 'I've got a doctor with me 24 hours a day.' Yeah, that's always the sign of a man in good health, isn't it?
David Letterman
Don't forget it's daylight savings time. You spring forward, then you fall back. It's like Robert Downey Jr. getting out of bed.
David Letterman
Experts say that Iraq may have nuclear weapons. That's bad news - they may have a nuclear bomb. Now the good news is that they have to drop it with a camel.
David Letterman
Fall is my favorite season in Los Angeles, watching the birds change color and fall from the trees.
David Letterman
For the love of God, folks, don't try this at home.
David Letterman
Here's a little known fact - Arnold is the first body builder to run for governor since Janet Reno.
David Letterman
I cannot sing, dance or act; what else would I be but a talk show host.
David Letterman
I had no idea this thing was televised. Boy, is my face red.
David Letterman
I know these jokes aren't great, ladies and gentlemen, see this is the problem you run into when you're between impeachments.
David Letterman
I'm just trying to make a smudge on the collective unconscious.
David Letterman
Iraq's elite Republican Guard is doing so badly they're changing their name to the Democratic Guard.
David Letterman
It's official, Arnold said he will enter the race for governor. At least that's what everybody thinks he said.
David Letterman
It's so warm now, and Thanksgiving came so early - is it just me, or does it not really feel like Ramadan?
David Letterman
Last night the United States dropped four 2,000 pound bombs on Saddam Hussein. I don't know anything about explosives, but, my God, do those things even need to explode?
David Letterman
New York now leads the world's great cities in the number of people around whom you shouldn't make a sudden move.
David Letterman
New York... when civilization falls apart, remember, we were way ahead of you.
David Letterman
Next in importance to having a good aim is to recognize when to pull the trigger.
David Letterman
No one knows if Saddam is still alive. They keep showing old footage of him on TV saying that it's live. You know, it's like the same thing we do with Dick Cheney.
David Letterman
People say New Yorkers can't get along. Not true. I saw two New Yorkers, complete strangers, sharing a cab. One guy took the tires and the radio; the other guy took the engine.
David Letterman
President Bush has been silent on Schwarzenegger. Of course, he can't pronounce Schwarzenegger.
David Letterman
President Bush has said that he does not need approval from the UN to wage war, and I'm thinking, well, hell, he didn't need the approval of the American voters to become president, either.
David Letterman
President Bush says he needs a month off to unwind. Unwind? When the hell does this guy wind?
David Letterman
The big debate right now is if Saddam is alive or dead. He's dead, then he's alive, then dead, then alive. It's just confusing. Today they showed videotape, and Saddam was speaking at his own funeral.
David Letterman
The weather here is gorgeous. It's mild and feels like it's in the eighties. The hot dog vendors got confused because of the weather and thought it was spring, so they accidentally changed the hot dog water in their carts.
David Letterman
The White House is giving George W. Bush intelligence briefings. You know, some of these jokes just write themselves.
David Letterman
The worst tempered people I have ever met were those who knew that they were wrong.
David Letterman
There is no off position on the genius switch.
David Letterman
There's no business like show business, but there are several businesses like accounting.
David Letterman
Traffic signals in New York are just rough guidelines.
David Letterman
USA Today has come out with a new survey - apparently, three out of every four people make up 75% of the population.
David Letterman
We have defeated Saddam Hussein and Iraq. The good news is Iraq is ours, and the bad news is Iraq is ours.
David Letterman
We inadvertently bombed the Chinese Embassy. But Clinton now is working very hard. He has sent a letter of apology to the Chinese. And, he's also given them a gift certificate for future nuclear secrets.
David Letterman
We make a lot of fun at President Clinton's expense. But this transition is going to be tough because it's been 25 years since this guy has gotten laid in the private sector.
David Letterman
Wherever we've travelled in this great land of ours, we've found that people everywhere are about 90% water.
David Letterman
Yesterday Senator John Kerry changed his mind and now supports the ban on gay marriages. I'm telling you this guy has more positions than Paris Hilton.
David Letterman
Shannen Doherty
All my fans tell me what a glamorous life I have, but I tell them how hard I work and how many nights I spend alone with my dogs, eating chicken pot pie in my bedroom.
Shannen Doherty
Everybody deserves a second chance in this world. That's basically all I ask.
Shannen Doherty
Five minutes before I went on, I looked at my manager and said, I'm going to get booed. I know it's going to happen. And you're responsible because you put me on here. It was horrible. I've never been more hurt in my entire life.
Shannen Doherty
For a while I couldn't leave the house by myself. Even if I was just grocery shopping alone, I'd get self-conscious.
Shannen Doherty
Have you ever felt like a phone call that's been disconnected?
Shannen Doherty
I can't stand unpacking.
Shannen Doherty
I definitely lived my life like I wasn't in the public eye.
Shannen Doherty
I don't think you should do things in your personal life differently because you're a role model.
Shannen Doherty
I have never had anything done. I've been asked if I had breast implants. Whether I did or not, it's nobody's business but my own.
Shannen Doherty
I met Ashley two weeks before I married him. It was a joke-the most ridiculous thing I've ever done. Once I was married, I didn't want to be a failure, so I stuck it out for six months, which was about six months too long.
Shannen Doherty
I realize it's probably best to keep my politics to myself.
Shannen Doherty
I realize that the majority of people in the entertainment business happen to be Democrats. I have no problem with that. And they should have no problem with the fact that I'm a Republican.
Shannen Doherty
I still get nervous on dates. I'll be sitting at dinner with a guy and I have to excuse myself and go to the bathroom because I can't breathe.
Shannen Doherty
I'm a conservative. I was an avid supporter of Ronald Reagan; I thought he was fabulous.
Shannen Doherty
I'm from the South. I'm a Southern Baptist. I have a conservative point of view. I'm a Republican.
Shannen Doherty
I'm not a violent person and I don't hit people.
Shannen Doherty
If God wanted us to be naked, why did he invent sexy lingerie?
Shannen Doherty
If I kind of like a guy, then I'm a fantastic flirt. But with a guy I truly like, I get painfully shy.
Shannen Doherty
If somebody wants to have plastic surgery, more power to them. I think there's a point where you go overboard.
Shannen Doherty
My inner child is not wounded.
Shannen Doherty
That's something I go through every day - you know - Am I good enough to act?
Shannen Doherty
There's not one cast member of 90210 who didn't throw a tantrum to two themselves.
Shannen Doherty
This is a free country, and nobody should be criticized for their political beliefs. We're all allowed to have our opinions.
Shannen Doherty
To be a bitch or not to be a bitch, that is the question.
Shannen Doherty
Whenever I get frustrated, I tell myself, you could be working at a 7-Eleven right now, so never take for granted what you do for a living.
Shannen Doherty
You just have to keep believing in yourself.
Shannen Doherty
Your life changes. Everything has to be done perfectly, and I didn't follow that. I lived my life as if I wasn't in the public eye. I thought, 'I'm young. I have the right to experience new things, and if I want to go to a bar and get drunk, that's my prerogative.'
Shannen Doherty
David Cassidy
For me to go back and to play for audiences some of whom have been following me for thirty years and some who have found me in the last five or six years, that's really an interesting thing. I have an audience that goes from kids to seventy year olds.
David Cassidy
I don't play nostalgia acts. I don't play nostalgia shows.
David Cassidy
I have an audience that goes from kids to seventy year olds.
David Cassidy
I've been able to go on and have a successful career on Broadway and certainly the last five years in Las Vegas have been amazing.
David Cassidy
In California, of all places, entertainment is the key to a vibrant economy. If we do not develop young adults capable of entering that world, the financial base of this state is sure to suffer and impact all of us.
David Cassidy
It's been the work that has carried me and I never wanted to rest on my laurels or go back and do what I done before.
David Cassidy
It's not about the fame and the money because if you do good work all that stuff comes.
David Cassidy
My life has flourished in so many ways both personally and professionally that I can't ask for a better life.
David Cassidy

Dixie Carter
Certainly if we hope do enhance and extend whatever natural assets we were given, we must expect to make an effort, if not actually great labor.
Dixie Carter
I have never met a happy atheist. I believe in separation of church and state, but I think we have gone so far over in the other direction of separating church and state.
Dixie Carter
It takes a mighty good man to be better than no man at all.
Dixie Carter
Learning can take place in the backyard if there is a human being there who cares about the child. Before learning computers, children should learn to read first. They should sit around the dinner table and hear what their parents have to say and think.
Dixie Carter
We don't have the family organization the way we used to. My father lives with us because we have the room. The greatest of all opportunities for our children is a complete family unit.
Dixie Carter
You have to take a huge loss financially to do a play. You have to put aside the commercials and the speeches and the other things that put money on the table, and really save up to do it. And that's what I've done here. But it's worth it to me to be in a really good play.
Dixie Carter
James Garner
Everybody wants blockbusters. I like to see a few pictures now and then that have to do with people and have relationships, and that's what I want to do films about. I don't want to see these sci-fi movies, and I don't want to do one of those. I don't understand it.
James Garner
I saw my wife at a pool, flipped over her, and 14 days later we were married.
James Garner
When I started working, I didn't have a clue what I was doing, in that I was just wandering around, hoping that I could succeed. Then after I got a little under my belt, it took me about 25 years to feel like I knew what I was doing.
James Garner
Steven Seagal
I am hoping that I can be known as a great writer and actor some day, rather than a sex symbol.
Steven Seagal
I was born with a serious spiritual consciousness and for many years studied different paths.
Steven Seagal
It doesn't work if the bad guys kill his mother's uncle's friend's neighbor's pet dog. You've got to make the stakes high.
Steven Seagal
Try to find the path of least resistance and use it without harming others. Live with integrity and morality, not only with people but with all beings.

Dennis Quaid
I can't hit a ball more than 200 yards. I have no butt. You need a butt if you're going to hit a golf ball.
Dennis Quaid
I could never hold a job for more than three months, which works out well because that's how long a movie shoots.
Dennis Quaid
I have a resistance to change in things that I feel comfortable with and that I'm used to.
Dennis Quaid
I love acting and making your own luck. You have to recreate yourself, I guess. Although, I don't know how.
Dennis Quaid
I want to work with great people. Great people really make you better.
Dennis Quaid
I was made to be a perfectionist at everything I did. Everything was more important than what I wanted.
Dennis Quaid
I've done so many movies that when I see them I don't really watch them.
Dennis Quaid
If you're going to stick around in this business, you have to have the ability to reinvent yourself, whether consciously or unconsciously.
Dennis Quaid
My interpretation of a strong director is someone who knows their story. That's what directors are, they're storytellers because they're directing where your focus is going to be as an audience.
Dennis Quaid
Sometimes in movies, I still have to be the hero, but it's not all that important to me anymore.
Dennis Quaid
That's what is great about what I do, going from one job to the other.
Dennis Quaid
There's no way that I could do a 9 to 5 job. There's no way. I was not cut out for that. You come in and you work for three months on the one job. They say, 'Great,' you know, and you're on to the next one - and you never even got fired. It's wonderful.
Dennis Quaid
What, like I want to look like Dick Clark? No. I think I look great with liver spots.
Dennis Quaid
When you break up, your whole identity is shattered. It's like death.
Dennis Quaid
You don't have to be alone with your thoughts anymore. You don't have to process anything. You can call up someone to do something to instantly make you sort of feel better.
Dennis Quaid

Soleil Moon Frye (Punky Brewster)
Merilu Henner
Babies act out when they're hungry, cold, tired. They do this for survival.
Marilu Henner
Because I work with so many people on the east coast, I get some work done before I get the kids up.
Marilu Henner
Being in control of your life and having realistic expectations about your day-to-day challenges are the keys to stress management, which is perhaps the most important ingredient to living a happy, healthy and rewarding life.
Marilu Henner
Everyone thrives most in his or her own unique environment.
Marilu Henner
Feeling a little blue in January is normal.
Marilu Henner
Foods high in bad fats, sugar and chemicals are directly linked to many negative emotions, whereas whole, natural foods rich in nutrients - foods such as fruits, vegetables, grains and legumes - contribute to greater energy and positive emotions.
Marilu Henner
Healthful whole foods improve our brain function as well.
Marilu Henner
However, don't let perfectionism become an excuse for never getting started.
Marilu Henner
I also think stress is related to control. When you're in charge of your life, you tend to not care about losing control of things that don't really matter like traffic jams.
Marilu Henner
I always say centered food equals centered behavior.
Marilu Henner
I definitely enjoy being in front of people which gives me that exciting immediate rush.
Marilu Henner
I eat all of the time... at least five little meals a day.
Marilu Henner
I like getting up early. I get up around five.
Marilu Henner
I love the producer, Joel Rice. We worked together years ago putting a project together.
Marilu Henner
I play the unsinkable Molly Brown, which is where she got her name from, because she survived.
Marilu Henner
I took anatomy classes. I went to medical libraries and talked to doctors and nutritionists. I did the whole thing before using myself as a human guinea pig.
Marilu Henner
I totally changed my life, changed my lifestyle.
Marilu Henner
I'm a girl who loves to share information, especially empowering, life-changing, information.

If I'm right in the middle of a deadline, I'm up really early.

It is now common knowledge that the average American gains 7 pounds between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day.

Agnetha Faltskog (ABBA)
I can spot empty flattery and know exactly where I stand. In the end it's really only my own approval or disapproval that means anything.
Agnetha Faltskog
I have always had strong maternal instincts. Even when I was still a child I cut out pictures of prams from newspapers and imagined the feeling of pushing my own pram through fresh winter snow and seeing the wheels' tracks behind me in the snow.
Agnetha Faltskog
I may have aimed too high sometimes, asked too much of myself and demanded too little from those around me.
Agnetha Faltskog
I must be allowed to be as I am.
Agnetha Faltskog
It has always felt like a failure that Bjorn and I couldn't keep our family together. You never get it back, but to this day I don't regret splitting up. The reason behind our separation is one of those things I definitely don't want to go into!
Agnetha Faltskog
It's strange that the newspapers don't see a connection between their false revelations about my private life and my need for seclusion and security.
Agnetha Faltskog
My path has not been determined. I shall have more experiences and pass many more milestones.
Agnetha Faltskog
There is a danger of changing too much in the search for perfection.
Agnetha Faltskog
There was a time when the music fell silent. Both within me and around me.
Agnetha Faltskog
This idea of trying to repeat a success doesn't interest me. It's only really done to make money.
Agnetha Faltskog
When I'm living in the world of luxury and celebrity, which is where I found myself for a large part of my life, it's a walk-on part. Not a vital necessity, like it is for so many people. I enjoy it but I can see right through it!

Maya Angelou
If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude.
Maya Angelou
Nothing will work unless you do.
Maya Angelou
Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. But anger is like fire. It burns it all clean.
Maya Angelou
I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
Maya Angelou
All great achievements require time.
Maya Angelou
I believe that every person is born with talent.
Maya Angelou
Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.

Eddie Murphy
I've always had confidence. It came because I have lots of initiative. I wanted to make something of myself.
Eddie Murphy
I'm 42 and the age of a guy who has kids, so I guess I'm playing right where I'm supposed to be. I'm comfortable with that, but in the same breath I'd do something edgy. If someone came to me and offered me an edgy and funny story, then I'd do it.
Eddie Murphy
The thing about kids is that they express emotion. They don't hold back. If they want to cry, they cry, and if they are in a good mood, they're in a good mood.
Eddie Murphy
I'd like to produce, direct, write, score, and star in a film in exactly the way Chaplin did. I'll do that before I'm thirty.
Eddie Murphy
I've made 30 movies and for the most part my movies work. In a business where success is an exception and not the rule, I've mostly been successful.
Eddie Murphy
You know, making a movie is a collaborative effort and sometimes all the ingredients don't work out. I know that every now and again I am going to make a movie that won't work.
Eddie Murphy
In the original script, my character was a basketball player rather than a boxer. I didn't think I could pull that off. I'm a little short to be a basketball player!

Marvin P. Gaye Jr.
Detroit turned out to be heaven, but it also turned out to be hell.
Marvin Gaye
Great artists suffer for the people.
Marvin Gaye
I am not going to be dictated to by fans, certainly. I am dictated enough to by my record company to last me a million years.
Marvin Gaye
I hope to refine music, study it, try to find some area that I can unlock. I don't quite know how to explain it but it's there. These can't be the only notes in the world, there's got to be other notes some place, in some dimension, between the cracks on the piano keys.
Marvin Gaye
I sing about life.
Marvin Gaye
If you cannot find peace within yourself, you will never find it anywhere else.
Marvin Gaye
Marriage is miserable unless you find the right person that is your soulmate and that takes a lot of looking.
Marvin Gaye
Most fear stems from sin; to limit one's sins, one must assuredly limit one's fear, thereby bringing more peace to one's spirit.
Marvin Gaye
Music, not sex, got me aroused.
Marvin Gaye
Negotiating means getting the best of your opponent.
Marvin Gaye
War is not the answer, because only love can conquer hate.
Marvin Gaye
