You've got to have a sense of humor to keep your sanity.

The beginning of the shows are different. One time we'll say 'Hello, Denver'. Another time we'll say 'Hello, Memphis'. It's always different.

He's a couple sandwiches short of a picnic.

I can't bear looking in the mirror - I guess that's why my hair looks like this.

At some point in our lives there's something about every one of us that makes us feel like an outsider, I believe.

I actually didn't get to go to my prom. I left high school when I was 16 to join 'NSYNC. I felt that was something I always missed out on, and all my friends got to go and would tell me about it.

I find that once you start helping others, it makes you feel better about yourself. It helps you figure out what you want to do with your own life.

I love cooking. It's one of my favorite things to do. To share my parents' recipes that I grew up with is just something very special to me.

I think everyone dreams of that nice romantic wedding.

I'm a family guy, so I would love to have a family; I would love to find that perfect person to have a family with.

I'm a hopeless romantic.

I'm at peace with my family, my friends, myself and God so there's really nothing else that I worry about.

I'm more interested in producing than acting.

I'm more liberated and happy than I've been my whole life. I'm just happy.

I'm still Christian. I was not raised in a Christian church to hate people. I was taught to love people and accept people. I know what I believe.

I'm used to people talking about me.

I'm very religious.

I've always been interested in making movies.

I've always dreamed of having a large family.

In Mississippi, you don't admit that you're gay. It's just an awkward thing down South, which is sad.

It doesn't matter what color, sex, religion, age, sexual orientation, etc., everyone should have the same freedoms and liberties.

It's nice not to have to live a double life.

Somebody might get criticized for doing some movie that totally sucks, then turn around and be incredible. Every actor goes through that, not just musicians who act.

Speaking out is important for me because everyone should be treated equally.

The gay community is very fickle. And I know because I'm part of it and I see it every day.

We joke about it in the entertainment industry: Every actor wants to be a musician, and every musician wants to be an actor.

Even when I was a kid, I always showed up late for school every day. It got to the point where they had my late slips filled for every day of the school year in advance, so all they had to do was fill in what time I got there.

The Supreme Being I would sign up for would not prove his omnipotence by saving one life while ending dozens, or hundreds, or thousands. Nor would he summon an angel to heaven by ending a first grader's life at the hands of a gunman or sadist.

Congress has the constitutional responsibility to control the power of the 'purse'.

For me, an area of moral clarity is: you're in front of someone who's suffering and you have the tools at your disposal to alleviate that suffering or even eradicate it, and you act.

I've never been shy or secretive with the fact that if you walk into my life, you may be walking onto a record.

When Beverly and I got together in 1992, and I moved to be with her in the little round house she'd built in the middle of 20 acres of woods near Amity, I found myself immersed in a natural setting that I responded to with all my being.

I was never the girl in high school who had a boyfriend for years. My longest relationship has been 18 months. I've thought maybe I'm really superficial and unable to have a relationship. What I've found is that people are attracted by my independence, and then they try to squelch it.

Refuse to accept the belief that your professional relevance, career success or financial security turns on the next update on the latest technology. Sometimes it's good to put the paddle down and just let the canoe glide.

I grew up in Louisiana - a little suburb right outside of New Orleans - and I wouldn't have it any other way!

I was very down as a teenager, very upset because I had gotten hurt in a car accident. But my dad was a source of strength. He used to say, 'It's the character with strength that God gives the most challenges to.' I've thought about that so many times in my life when things didn't go right.

My faith is in my colleagues. And when I meet other writers, journalists, who've been doing this for a long time, trying to make us aware of what it is that we're living in, I put my faith in those people.

I love voice over! I just think it is amazing!

Reading history, one rarely gets the feeling of the true nature of scientific development, in which the element of farce is as great as the element of triumph.

If you're well-known, you're at the risk of becoming your own character. When you're alone, as a writer, you have to be unknown, putting it all on the paper.

If you can't eat it, shoot it, or wear it, don't bring it.

The reason I talk to myself is that I'm the only one whose answers I accept.

Later, I realized that the mission had to end in a let-down because the real barrier wasn't in the sky but in our knowledge and experience of supersonic flight.

Pop music can get inside us and enter our memory bubbles. It provides those true Proustian moments, unlocking sensations, unlocking our imaginations. Music inspired me as a filmmaker.

Welcome to the world we live in as coaches. You've got to figure out what you can do best and better to get these kids a chance to be successful. I think that comes through a lot of things - confidence, improvement, recruiting.

I think we're in good shape, but the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina is in some small way mitigated by the fact that we now have more people talking about it, thinking about it and working on it, so that we will be more vigilant and ready.

Like any friendship or marriage, familiarity breeds more contempt, and love, and everything.

The most decisive actions of life are most often unconsidered actions.
