I'd love to do more action stuff, in the future.
Ashley Tisdale

Paul Cellucci
In fact, in many ways my mother was quite hippy-dippy, serving macrobiotic food and reading 'Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.'
Kristin Scott Thomas
I've never seen a worse situation than that of young writers in the United States. The publishing business in North America is so commercialized.

It was a very cool thing to be a smart girl, as opposed to some other, different kind. And I think that made a great deal of difference to me growing up and in my life afterward.

Justice is rather the activity of truth, than a virtue in itself. Truth tells us what is due to others, and justice renders that due. Injustice is acting a lie.
Horace Walpole
Doing is a quantum leap from imagining.
Barbara Sher
Everything, I think, about acting is based on imagination.
