No matter what it is, pick yourself up and go on to the next project.

There's nothing that can beat the feeling of doing a movie or a TV show that makes everyone feel good.

I don't know if I was a desirable person, not just physically but emotionally and mentally and intellectually. I still have a long way go and a lot to learn, but I'm on my way, I don't think I'm terribly attractive, but I'm comfortable with my looks.

I suppose I learned organization from Altman.

We live from day to day and get as much joy out of experiencing as we can.

I was traveling in Europe with Paul and suddenly realized my passport still said I was Mrs. Sampson.

For a while we lived in a tent we'd pitched inside his parents' house and we slept on pillows.

I'm not afraid of aging.

Bernard and I intend doing a lot with our lives and that includes actively helping other people. But how can we tell you our plans when we haven't finished making them yet?

I felt little awkward about taking one boyfriend to see a film starring another boyfriend.

Making it big in this world is such a rip-off, you gotta keep your head together or it can be totally without meaning.

Pigs are not that dirty. And they're smart, strange little creatures. They just need love.

But most of what I've learned about acting - and a lot of what I've learned about life in the past seven years - was taught to me by Robert Altman.

And of course, now that Bernard and I have found each other forever, we're determined to create our own little world in order to survive the one we're in.

The world doesn't end just because one thing goes wrong.

I'm one of those people who thinks you can have a happy life and still be an artist.

But I never let a fantasy get away, because I always stop to analyze it.

Anyway, I went out and bought thousands of dollars worth of mature clothes so I'd look like a person to be taken seriously, instead of a pretty little twit.

Two months later at a party, Bernard pulled me into a closet and proposed. I said yes.

Somewhere along the line, Bob said I'd better begin taking this business seriously, because, whether I liked it or not, I had a career.

No matter what it is, pick yourself up and go on to the next project.

When I'd finished, everybody said they wanted me for this movie. At first I thought they meant a nudie flick since an awful lot of nudies are made in Houston.

Having been an actress before becoming a producer has helped, because I realize the needs.

You think he's going to like you better, but then one day you look in the mirror and realize you've changed yourself - physically and emotionally - into a woman who's totally different from the one he was attracted to the first place.

I like to pick my own vegetables.

In Houston everyone owns guns and uses 'em - sometimes just for the hell of it.

Take events in your life seriously, take work seriously, but don't take yourself seriously, or you'll become affected, pompous and boring.

In school the kids thought I was freaky because I made straight A's and daydreamed a lot.

You don't direct ostriches, you herd them.

Acting in films hasn't changed me. I feel exactly the same.

Pigs are smart little creatures. They just need love.

I want to have babies one day but not right now. When I do it I want to do it really well. I want it to be my best project in life.

That's Tommy, this great producer who comes in contact with people and must have a mental library of personnel who are great for this and great for that, and he brought this whole group of musicians to the project that I'd never worked with before.

I have a project at HBO and one at the Family Channel coming that are being looked at. Aside from that I am not doing much more than playing golf and some skiing.

One of the most interesting aspects of the film project was collaborating with so many people - directors, filmmakers, and writers - over a five-year period. I learned that there are two components to this.

To think that we as a publisher (i.e. people who have never actually MADE a game) can have a realistic impact on a project that a team of experts is slaving away on full time for 2 years is a bit arrogant.

In the earliest days, this was a project I worked on with great passion because I wanted to solve the Defense Department's problem: it did not want proprietary networking and it didn't want to be confined to a single network technology.

Every book is a new journey. I never felt I was an expert on a subject as I embarked on a project.

Let's talk of a system that transforms all the social organisms into a work of art, in which the entire process of work is included... something in which the principle of production and consumption takes on a form of quality. It's a Gigantic project.

I think it is important to maintain a sense of self and confidence, not letting either falter for the sake of a particular part or project, no matter how great it might be.

As long as I had easy access to psychedelics at the government-sponsored research project, most of my energy went into psychedelic sessions.

I always listen to a lot of different music when I am working on a project.

For me, every day is a new thing. I approach each project with a new insecurity, almost like the first project I ever did. And I get the sweats. I go in and start working, I'm not sure where I'm going. If I knew where I was going I wouldn't do it.

Believing that our greatest need is for the general public to be able to get better information, to have an opportunity to learn better the real issues of the less fortunate, we centered the activities of the Fairness Project on that.

God would have to beam into me what I was doing and what the album actually sounded like because usually when I start a project like that, I already know what the album sounds like before I start it.

The founders of a new colony, whatever Utopia of human virtue and happiness they might originally project, have invariably recognized it among their earliest practical necessities to allot a portion of the virgin soil as a cemetery, and another portion as the site of a prison.

It takes half your life before you discover life is a do-it-yourself project.

For the last 30 years our cinemas have been ruled by science fiction and horror. We've had some very good Fantasy films in that time period, but for my tastes I still haven't seen fantasy done to absolute perfection. That is the hope I have in this project.
