Onstage, I was never the ingenue.

I like people-watching and fading into crowds.

I've always just gone with the best role, and I don't care if it's in theater, film or television.

I was such a dork. I was too big. I was really gangly.

I'm a strong person, but I'd never resort to violence.

I literally felt like a freak, which is another aspect of the role of Sally that I relate to: total outsider.

I was voted Biggest Ham and Likeliest to Become a Celebrity.

I was a full foot taller than any child my age.

It was only when I moved to New York that I realized tall is good.

I really came out to L.A. to take the money and run.

I think Janeane Garofalo is incredibly funny, and I love Dennis Miller.

To actually be allowed to be beautiful is a total first for me.

I want to play a Disney villainess so badly.

I don't consider myself a goody-goody, but I like to be perceived as classy.

If you love it, and work really hard at it, it will really happen, I believe. I'm living proof.

I was born in Washington, D.C., and I was raised in Milwaukee.

My way was not to be the petite, gorgeous, little cheerleader. My way of getting by was making people laugh.

When you're that tall, people talk about it all the time.

And to be different is great. You don't want to be the same.

Onstage, I was never the ingenue.

I am, uh... a 6 foot tall woman, I feel like I'm a healthy size, I'm not anorexic; and I feel that people who aren't anorexic are punished... for not being anorexic.

I'd so much rather people think I was funny than pretty.

May I say, if you were suddenly put into a woman's body, wouldn't you be slightly interested in your breasts, and why people look at certain parts of you, and why certain parts move like they do?

I spent 10 years in New York doing theater.

But this show reminds me that there are other aspects to me besides the fact that I'm a funny chick.

I dont consider myself a goody goody but I like to be perceived as classy.

But who prays for Satan? Who, in eighteen centuries, has had the common humanity to pray for the one sinner that needed it most?

As attorney general, I can either look into it or I can ignore it because they're a bunch of powerful legislators... and I'm afraid they're going to cut my budget.

Believe it to be true and meet yourself there.

I am still waiting for the day that they say, 'Time's up, Blanco. Back to your shift at Walmart.'

Life is a process of evolution.

Of those who die from avoidable, poverty-related causes, nearly 10 million, according to UNICEF, are children under five. They die from diseases such as measles, diarrhoea, and malaria that are easy and inexpensive to treat or prevent.

When you're jumping, it's just an aggressiveness, but I think the exhilaration and the fun comes after you make the bar and you're falling. That's the best part - a few seconds to celebrate and relax.

It is time for us to breathe and build margin into our lives for God. Sabbath was intended as a gift, and it is still a gift to us today. If you are weary, worn out, and exhausted the concept of Sabbath will change your life.

Intention is one of the most powerful forces there is. What you mean when you do a thing will always determine the outcome. The law creates the world.

I'm a fixer, unfortunately. I'm like, 'Oh, I can fix you.' But it's not just guys I'm dating anymore. It's this entire legion of young girls who tell me they need me to maintain any sort of sanity or peace.

Only the inner voice gives us freedom.

My grandmother worked on a fruit and vegetable market stall.

Boy, we'll get Raymond out and we won't go hungry anymore.

They can't chain my spirit! My spirit runs free! Walls can't contain it! Laws can't restrain it! Authority has no power over it!

Sammy Baugh embodied all we aspire to at the Washington Redskins. He was a competitor in everything he did and a winner. He was one of the greatest to ever play the game of football, and one of the greatest the Redskins ever had.

I know the price of lettuce. You need to understand price and value. You buy the best lettuce you can at the best price you can.

Creativity is not the property of artists alone. It's a basic element of the human character, no matter what culture you're in, no matter where you are on Earth or in history.

As you sow so shall you reap

Our Father's commitment to us, His children, is unwavering. Indeed He softens the winters of our lives, but He also brightens our summers.

I think I have some ideas on coaching, but listen, coaches work harder than players. The hours they put in, the headaches that they have. That's the one thing I've never liked about coaching. They have all the emotion, passion and preparation without actually getting to be able to dictate what happens.

Once upon a time there was a widow who had two daughters. The elder was so much like her, both in looks and character, that whoever saw the daughter saw the mother.

I believe that, if managed well, the Fourth Industrial Revolution can bring a new cultural renaissance, which will make us feel part of something much larger than ourselves: a true global civilization. I believe the changes that will sweep through society can provide a more inclusive, sustainable and harmonious society. But it will not come easily.

Paranoia is an illness I contracted in institutions. It is not the reason for my sentences to reform school and prison. It is the effect, not the cause.
