I had glow in the dark bands made up and I've given away a ton of them.

Usually, jet lag is not this big of an issue for me. I'm not sure why I'm so disoriented this time. It could be due to the amount of chocolate and french fries I've eaten in the last two and a half weeks.

I can wholeheartedly apologize for not being at all sorry. And it really is the least I can do.

Let's stop playing with ourselves and get on with the entertainment, shall we?

The theme of the party was Neverland Ranch, so guests were asked to come as anyone or anything associated with Michael Jackson. It was all very disturbing.

Orphans, dead parents, lonely children at Christmas, morose spoken word recordings, everything you love about the holidays. Move the turkey over so you can fit your head in the oven.

Like every aspect of cancer I've weathered thus far, today's experience was not at all demoralizing, expensive or humiliating. No, it was just plain fun.

I always like to get local music when I'm in another country.

I wish you a tolerable Thursday. That's all any of us can hope for.

I have found that many other countries will buy off on anything American. As much as they hate us, they want to be us more than anything.

Personally, I think tying garbage bags around your head and hands is overkill.

My bedspread isn't washable. Since my bedding has to be washed every day, I'll have to throw it out.

I remember lying down for a nap one day at about 4:00 and walking up at 11:00 the next morning.

I had a migraine for about seven or eight straight days, and I was unable to sleep most nights.

I'd like to run for office someday, but I'm afraid my ability to spell might give me an unfair advantage.

I never have anything to talk about.

I had glow in the dark bands made up and I've given away a ton of them.

I know you aren't supposed to speak ill of the dead.

I am severely distracted these days. It's hard to sit in front of the computer, uploading bad music for hours, when you have a wonderful boyfriend who treats you like a Goddess.

Few things tend more to alienate friendship than a want of punctuality in our engagements. I have known the breach of a promise to dine or sup to break up more than one intimacy.

I like the creativity of planning a party, or cooking and taking care of people, creating a memorable meal or event.

In college, everything's structured. In the NBA, it's like, you have a lot of free time, and you have to use it wisely. A lot of the time, you're in a hotel room all day. And rest is really the most important thing. Then, just trying to enjoy yourself and have fun.

I think many of my books, including 'Handle with Care,' including 'My Sister's Keeper,' circle back to how far are we willing to go for the people we love? I think love changes the way we think. It's the thing that takes you out of what your normal set of beliefs would be.

I was really into classifieds for awhile. I'm a big negotiator. My father owned a car dealership when I was younger... it's just in my blood.

It doesn't seem Shakespeare works if you turn him into a religion.

This entire business of modern war crimes, as identified by the liberal wings of politics and the media, began in Iraq and has been running downhill ever since.

Farming looks mighty easy when your plow is a pencil and youre a thousand miles from the corn field.

Some look at things that are, and ask why. I dream of things that never were and ask why not?

Life is like a rushing river. If we fight the current we are drawn under and drown in emotion.

Unlike life, you've got more or less complete control over what's going on in your stories. That's not to say you can make characters do whatever you want them to - they usually have a life of their own if you've done your job properly.

I would love to get great performances from actors as a director, because that's what I'm always looking for, a director that's going to help me go places I've never been before.

The people of our state will no longer tolerate advocates of treason.

Fashion and all that comes after the music.

I don't know why, but audiences are often sympathetic to thieves. Sometimes they are more sympathetic to thieves then they are to earnest people. What does that say about society?

I don't see myself as any different from all the other Filipinos who have gone abroad looking for opportunity, to be a nurse, a labourer, a maid or a prostitute.

In Hollywood, they think they know it all. You, as a writer, are essentially an outsider. Novelists and short-story writers, especially.

Go where your customers take you! For example, did you know that Sony's first product was a rice cooker? Since abandoning the rice cooker, it has merely managed to become the world's biggest consumer electronics company.

The problems of the disabled are unpopular.

The things that inspire people to think are what keeps a film alive.

The fruits of all our labors have left us as we started. To grow without is not to grow within.

You can't run from your roots.

When your intentions are pure, so too will be your success.

I loved playing the stuff we did in the Byrds. It was a good band. I was lucky to be in it.
