I'm kind of a recluse.

Years are not important, my dear.

Well, softness and femininity like yours people don't expect of me; so when they find me emotional and capable of real vulnerability, they're surprised.

I still have, I hope, a lot of years and there are still a lot of things I want to do.

You just sort of let them go for a while, but it was time to have something done to my teeth. I'm glad. It's going to be good. Tom Cruise has braces now, too. I'm right in style.

You are an athlete when you're onstage. You can't get tired.

My mother's passion for something more, to write a different destiny for a dirt-poor farmer's daughter, was to shape my entire life.

So Liam and movies are obviously big passions, and I read and write.

When you're younger they always try to get you to do every ninny role that's going.

It's interesting as one grows older to keep in touch with the cutting edge.

I mean, I was always interested in people like Lenny Bruce, people who are breaking the old rules and making new ones.

It's true, I did a lot of great movies, and I'm happy. It was what it was, and now I think all of that has fed into where I am now, and I think it has taught me a lot.

I often say the last role I played that really touched me and where I was able to access what I really am was Bonnie, which is kind of sad when you think how early in my career that was.

I'm kind of a recluse.

So many people are called but few serve as actors, you know what I mean?

Since Star Wars, that film's success led to bigger budgets, more hardware, that the great movies like the ones I did, which were studio movies, are now independent movies. They range from half a million to several million, and a lot of those have very interesting roles.

Do you know what I'm working on now? My first feature as a director.

God bless McNally, it's got some fantastic stuff in it, but it's no easy task to make a movie out of.

I've been working on this feature script for Master Class, a play by Terrence McNally that won a lot of Tonys.

I'm still the little southern girl from the wrong side of the tracks who really didn't feel like she belonged.

No one who is willing to work hard, abide by our laws, and love our traditions should ever feel unwelcome in this country. At the same time, that does not mean we just flat out open our borders. We can't do that.

I always say I've given 24 insufficient performances and I'm looking forward to the time in my life when I'll do something that I think is good. There's always stuff you can do better, stuff that maybe you didn't uncover enough. But if you do something that you truly believe is perfect, then that's got to be the last movie you do.

I'm an 18-year-old boy, and I'm having fun. I'm just not having as much fun as people make out.

The day people around me stop questioning my character is the day my character begins to grow vulnerable.

All children accomplish milestones in their own way, in their own time.

Symphonies begin with one note; fires with one flame; gardens with one flower; and masterpieces with one stroke.

To be honest, I was never really interested in theatre as a kid.

Each of us have a choice to make. Will we choose to achieve our dreams or will we choose to allow others to use us to achieve their dreams.

We have to still develop the Ikea group. We need many billions of Swiss francs to take on China or Russia.

I have no idea why one of our most original filmmakers would want to spend two years of his life translating someone else's movie from Spanish into English. And it wasn't such a good film in Spanish, either.

We've made science experiments of ourselves and our children.

I don't want to do free jazz! Because free jazz - which is the musical equivalent of free marketeering - isn't actually free at all. It's just constrained by what your muscles can do.

Through my years of working on war and peace in Africa, I have learned that there are solutions to some of the greatest human rights challenges, and we all can be a part of those solutions.

Earth provides enough to satisfy every mans needs but not every mans greed.

The simplest fix for better grilling is to line the inside of your barbecue with tin foil. It dramatically affects how evenly the heat is distributed. That crusty black hibachi or Weber grill is doing your food no favors.

I think we'll all keep pushing each other, which is a great thing.

I didn't become a caddie because I wanted to be a caddie. I was a caddie because that was how I could make money and feed myself. It was work. It was a dignified job.

I've always loved film and wanted to work in film. I just love working and creating new characters, and trying different genres and different things.

Nest Thermostat owners like the carbon monoxide link. If Nest Protect's carbon monoxide alarm goes off, the Nest Thermostat automatically turns off the gas furnace.

Order and tidiness is the first law of Heaven.

We'll be presenting a broad spectrum of the music and looking at how the younger guys can carry it on.

What I want to do is tell stories about normal people in the American suburbs. I don't write the book where it's a conspiracy reaching the prime minister; I don't write the book with the big serial killer who lops off heads. My setting is a very placid pool of suburbia, family life. And within that I can make pretty big splashes.

Musically, swing pretty much dominated in the '30s. And into the late '30s, swing is beginning to change over to bebop in the early '40s, which is exactly when this new science of theoretical physics, particularly theoretical atomic physics, was really coming to the fore.

I've always heard about people having a conniption, but I've never seen one.
