I have 137 pairs of shoes and 200 pairs of jeans.

I'm a different person. I don't want to be titled as Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain's daughter. I want to be thought of as Frances Cobain.

I don't like to look sloppy. I'm a girly-girl.

My look is a Modern Bohemian type thing.

I have 137 pairs of shoes and 200 pairs of jeans.

I can count on one hand how many people I trust.

I'm famous by default. I came out of the womb, and people wanted to know who I was because of my parents.

I'm in a monogamous relationship and very happy.

I'm really lucky, because I've been able to go places and meet people you can only dream of.

If you're a big Nirvana fan, a big Hole fan, then I understand why you would want to get to know me, but I'm not my parents.

It's creepy to see fan sites about me.

So I have been careful about where I go and who I hang out with because if you tell someone the wrong thing, then it's everywhere.

These people are fascinated by me, but I haven't done anything.

Twitter should ban my mother.

We've moved so much, and my life has been so inconsistent.

While I'm generally silent on the affairs of my biological mother, her recent tirade has taken a gross turn.

I used to be an editor and I was editing young adult series. I didn't really like the books that I was reading, so I decided that I would write a book about something I'd want to read if I was 16. It turned into a Cinderella story... I developed a proposal and the characters of 'Gossip Girl' for my job.

I am an opportunist. When opportunities come, and I see them serving my grander goals in life, I take them.

The Washington establishment think Republicans win elections by you don't stand for anything, you keep your head down, you don't rock the boat. You know what? Every time we do that, we get clobbered in the polls.

However great an evil immorality may be, we must not forget that it is not without its beneficial consequences. It is only through extremes that men can arrive at the middle path of wisdom and virtue.

I think that the public is in and the public is in big, and the public is not, I don't think going to pull out because the public knows what I said about 1987.

Always do what you’re afraid to do.

For me, I get a part of an idea here and a little bit of an idea there, and then finally it accumulates into a movie.

When a customer enters my store, forget me. He is king.

I have lived in Mumbai for more than 20 years, have my domicile here, my home and family here.

The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.

The trial of a case is a three-legged stool - a judge and two advocates.

Talk is cheap and easy. Making dreams real is hard. Humble work dreams in the midwest are acceptable. Just keep them to yourself. Maybe tell your family but don't just talk--Do something about it.

It was about 105 degrees in Chicago. And that's a time when everybody gets tired. I came into the clubhouse, and everybody was sitting around, and I said, 'Beautiful day. Let's play two!' And everybody looked at me like I was crazy. There were a couple of writers around, and they wrote that, and it stayed with me.

I've interviewed people where their response was literally one word for everything I asked. This didn't help me get to know them, nor did it sell me on their skill set to help my company achieve its goals. I got nothing from them, which meant I had no way of knowing if they were really a good fit in the company.

From the time I was a kid, I was always interested in any and all kinds of new business ideas.

There are no great scripts - just great films.

When I was first introduced to Buddhism in a high school World Studies class, I dismissed it out of hand. This was during the hedonistic days of the late '60s, and this spiritual path seemed so grim with its concern about attachment and, apparently, anti-pleasure.

When I'm on a set, and I'm in between a scene or on a plane waiting, I read Twitter and I love it.

It is very good to be Olympic champion, but that is not the strongest field.

My diet has definitely become greener; however, I am a big proponent of everything in moderation. I enjoy having a farm-to-table dinner, as well as indulging in a special, decadent treat on occasion.

I don't think you'd call me a traditionalist. But you can say I have an old soul, because I grew up listening to Conway Twitty and Hank Williams.

You start to get nervous when the value of a comic book or graphic novel is relative to the achievements of some other medium.

I could meet dreadful people and end up seeing the world through their eyes, seeing their frailties, their needs.

I didn't get anything published until I was thirty-three, and yet I'd written five novels and six or seven plays. The plays, I should point out, were dreadful.
