Bambi has a profound effect on children because it's about losing your mother.

It's the thing that you do well that brings you to prominence. The very thing that brings you to success can also be like a curse, because then people think that's all you can do.

I got into Julliard on almost a full scholarship.

It is really hard to do comedy; it takes a lot of energy and focus. It's rather like music: It's a lot of hitting notes precisely.

Really, can anyone drink several martinis at lunch?

Lawrence of Arabia is the ultimate movie, deeply cinematic.

I always say God should have given women one extra decade at least, especially if you want a family. You're trying to pack a lot in.

I never say I have a preference for one medium as opposed to another.

Why would I lose sleep when I really need valuable sleep just to recuperate and come back and do my job?

Audrey Hepburn's face was made for the camera.

The older I get the more I try not to waste my time on negative energy.

It's a great time to be an actress at this point in my life.

I adore clothes, I adore drinking. I just don't have the time or the inclination to totally indulge in it.

I do enjoy film. The more I do it the more I learn.

Mike Nichols asked if I would do The Birdcage. Mike and I are dear friends but he had never offered me a feature role in a movie. My television career opened other doors for me.

You make a choice whether or not to turn that TV on. We didn't even have a television in the house.

I think people think Jim Carrey's just wild and crazy. He really is very disciplined. It is true of Eddie Murphy and Robin Williams as well.

I often close my eyes because I can't tolerate violence.

Ron Howard is as good a person as you could want to work with on film. He never lost his cool. He's the most easygoing, lovely man, but he's got this enormous intelligence and a wonderful humanity.

If I never do another movie, I will have had the privilege of working on one of the big Hollywood movies with top people, creating a world that can only be described as totally cinematic.

You have to hold your bloody own or you're lost.

It was considered that you were stepping down by doing television. I almost turned Cybill down because I so wanted to remain a theater actress.

I wanted to show people I can do things other than the sophisticated bitch.

The sibilant s is the most difficult sound to correct.

I wish I didn't have to live up to anything.

Jim Carrey is a consummate actor and professional. He comes on set, knows his lines and knows his moves.

I'd much rather be famous for being a fabulous bitch than being, She does that nice wife really well.

In the early '90s, New York was a pretty depressing place.

I'm a nice, happily married wife and mom and I live in Connecticut.

Usually, it gets worse and worse as they downsize your character; mine just kept getting better.

I'm sad to say that stardom is a commodity in our culture.

Acting is like a high wire act. Your margin for error is very slim.

You can only do the work to the very best of your ability.

You are always damned by things that you do well as an actor.

Im not sure what makes pepperoni so good if its the pepper or the oni.

Order is manifestly maintained in the universe... governed by the sovereign will of God.

Having cakes as a business certainly changes things for me I dont now sit at home doing a cake for the fun of it anymore. But its an extremely happy and pleasureable business to run because people are generally buying cakes for celebrations.

If you want a referendum, vote for the others. Or, in certain cases, you can stay at home, you don't vote and you could find yourself with a referendum by default because you didn't exercise your vote.

The five big mistakes in football are the fumble, the interception, the penalty, the badly called play, the blocked punt - and most of these originate with the quarterback. Find a mistake-proof quarterback and you have this game won.

Being in the industry, I've seen many situations where someone will get the call from the network where they say 'You guys have 5 episodes to wrap it up.' Then all your long-term story arcs gotta get wrapped up in five episodes because that's how many episodes you got left. I would hate to see that happen to 'Castle'.

I'm sometimes mistaken as the wife of the chairman. I just laugh it off.

When I have supped too heavily of an evening, I drink in the morning a large number of cups of coffee, and that as hot as I can drink it, so that the sweat breaks out on me, and if by so doing I can't restore my body, a whole apothecary's shop couldn't do much, and that is the only thing I have done for years when I have felt a fever.

We want a state wise in its contemplation - just in its actions - and moderate in the reach of government into our lives.

There's a rumor that there may be an attempt at organizing a possible script for a series on my life, which, when you look at my police record, you'd have to have more than one hour to tell the story.

Don't let anyone tell you your ideas are stupid or the thing you feel most passionate about 'won't work' - it's happened to me time and time again, and we find that if you push at what you think is interesting hard enough, you're probably right.

I never had any real expectations about what sort of success I would have or all the publicity.

If there is a God, whence proceed so many evils? If there is no God, whence cometh any good?

As best I can tell there was no advance warning of the attack on the World Trade Center in 1993, which was the first significant foreign terrorist activity in the U.S. No tip-offs that it was coming.
