It's awfully easy to be in love in jail.

I don't know much about him; never heard him say more than nope or yup.

I haven't any sort of plans for the future but I reckon things will work out in some manner.

I deserve all the love you can spare me. And I want a lot more than I deserve.

You got to look on the bright side, even if there ain't one.

Thanks for the information about what we call business.

He gave me what was probably meant to be a significant wink, but a corner of his mouth moved more than his eye did and the result was a fairly startling face.

I think teen girls will like 'Geek Charming' because they really focus on the 'populars' and nerdy people and people who are in between the nerds and between the populars. So it really hits every category of what girls are going through in high school.

Half the lies our opponents tell about us are untrue.

I am a Christian guy. I've struggled with that; I have struggled with everything.

I grew up in a house where my father went on auditions, and he got some and he lost some, and there were good years and lean years.

As I start to think about what I want to do next, there are eight or nine networks I would be thrilled to work with. I remember developing at FX and the executives there telling me, 'We don't want to do shows that 20 million people kind of like; we want to do the show that 2 million people really like.'

Life isn't always really glamorous and fabulous. It's about encouraging people to go back to natural beauty.

In your relationships with one another, have the same attitude of mind Christ Jesus had.

Magic's an art where you use slight of hand or illusion to create wonder. And I was just intrigued with that idea.
