Oh, there's going to be debate because you're dealing with the Bible and religion is supposed to be separate from state and that to me is already a conflict before it even hits the gay issue.

I came from poverty and was part of those circumstances.

My people were homesteading in Colorado before Emancipation.

It makes me forget that I'm not going to be a major star and lead female in films whether it was 20 years ago, 10 years ago, five or in the future.

My family was very, very receptive to all; all races, religions.

I do a movie once every four years and they call it a comeback.

I like serious films, the moneymaking blockbusters that don't make any kind of sense and John Carpenter films.

I thought I would be Sheena of the Jungle as a little girl.

Well who's black and what is a black person?

That's what he was saying, the civil rights movement - judge me for my character, not how black my skin is, not how yellow my skin is, how short I am, how tall or fat or thin; It's by my character.

It's always fun to put on bell bottoms and have your butt hanging out and hip huggers.

Well, thank you and that's for them, but for me, I want to look back at a body of work where when you do the research and you explore the psyche of a character, where she's been, where she is and where she's going.

You can be on top of everything, and the next minute, you're going to be on the bottom.

There are just certain realities about our world and I just happen to be creative within it.

I've never considered myself to be beautiful, and I still don't.

Each time you do a film you gain a lot of experience and build a visual resume where people get to know who you are.

Me, sexy? I'm just plain ol' beans and rice.

But I just loved looking at the clothes of the '70s.

I am really blessed and very grateful for it.

This whole beauty thing is something I've never comprehended.

Does a black person make them an African American? No. There are Hispanics that are very, very dark skinned so the word has lost its meaning, it's not a very concise or proper word to use even today and it wasn't then.

I love the hip-hop nation.

Women are allowed more freedoms and we're fighting for more freedoms, we're experiencing more freedoms won.

Today, many people are engaging in same sex relationships and saying they are not gay.

I don't believe that I should just do A-movies, I just do the work as an artist.

I'm an Air force Brat and I've lived all over the world and this country and there were people in my community who were gay - nurses, hairdressers, designers - people who just had a different way about themselves.

I grew up in a family where we weren't allowed to talk about beauty or to put any emphasis on physical appearance.

I really do not care if it is a B-movie or not.

The first movie that I saw was Godzilla and I loved it.

I love working with a lot of different films and a lot of different people.

I like to do all kinds of films.

Driving a cab is not really a nurturing type of relationship. You take people and they tip you, they may not tip you, you don't know their names, they don't care about you, you don't care about them.

And as I reinvent myself and I'm constantly curious about everything, I can't wait to see what's around the corner in newfound art and entertainment and exploration.

I love science fiction.

Oh, there's going to be debate because you're dealing with the Bible and religion is supposed to be separate from state and that to me is already a conflict before it even hits the gay issue.

I don't know how I did it, but I worked 7 days a week.

Today many people are engaging in same sex relationships and saying they are not gay.

The accepted versions of the Bible are all substantially correct.

As I have studied the Bible and the Book of Mormon, I have come to know through the power of the Spirit of God, that these books contain the fullness of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

I have continued systematically to study the Book of Mormon and Bible to understand even more deeply what God expects of me and my family while on this earth.

There are any number of people who profess to be good Christian people who are willing to believe all kinds of things on suspicion. Now that is not the way the Bible directs for Christian people to do.

Many of us view the bible and other religious teachings as mythology.

It is to be deeply regretted that the clergymen would oppose an effort to teach the people the Bible truths; nevertheless, we find much opposition everywhere, and many clergymen will attempt to prevent the people from reading what is here written.

If the president is going to use so much language of theology and the Bible, then let's use that language for a serious discussion about the war in Iraq. And that was never done.

So after the Lewinsky scandal, everything changed, and we moved from using the Bible to address the moral issues of our time, which were social, to moral issues of our time that were very personal. I have continued that relationship up until the present.

There are matters in the Bible, said to be done by the express commandment of God, that are shocking to humanity and to every idea we have of moral justice.

When I commit, I commit with my whole heart, my whole being. I know the Bible like the back of my hand.

The English Bible - a book which, if everything else in our language should perish, would alone suffice to show the whole extent of its beauty and power.

I've read the last page of the Bible. It's all going to turn out all right.
