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.

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 did work out every day. I needed it to have the endurance to do what needed to be done and not get hurt. I have such a new respect for action stars now.

Many are needed to plant and water what has been planted now that the faith has spread so far and there are so many people... No matter who plants or waters, God gives no harvest unless what is planted is the faith of Peter and unless he agrees to his teachings.

It's funny, 'cause it seems like just yesterday that I was the youngest player just starting out. But now there are young players all over the league, and they'll ask me questions about playing overseas or finding an agent.

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.

I'm getting a wider circle of fans now. More women, more middle class people.

I am now convinced that theoretical physics is actually philosophy.

It is too maddening. I've got to fly off, right now, to some devilish navy yard, three hours in a seasick steamer, and after being heartily sick, I'll have to speak three times, and then I'll be sick coming home. Still, who would not be sick for England?

Although Alchemy has now fallen into contempt, and is even considered a thing of the past, the physicain should not be influenced by such judgements.

The kinds of shows that seem to work now, the comedy shows, are those which require very little attention. They're superficial and I like articulate comedy.

I'm a more mature actress now.

Before and during the first phase of the war his administration repeatedly maligned the UN but now, that Iraq has turned into a quagmire, it is asking the UN for help.

They haul you up there for, you know, week after week in this kind of star chamber proceeding. Then at the end of it they say, well, we found nothing, but now it's time for special counsel.

I have in hands, now, specimens of bottom from t he Gulf Stream, obtained by Lieutenant Craven, and I can say that they are among the most interesting that I have ever seen.

From now on it is only through a conscious choice and through a deliberate policy that humanity can survive.

So I am one of those bass players who can do something and musically, it was back then and now it is even more, if you noticed on the new album, I am not playing all the time anymore.

Had the Hebrews not been disturbed in their progress a thousand and more years ago, they would have solved all the great problems of civilization which are being solved now under all the difficulties imposed by the spirit of the Middle Ages.

I had to overcome the name Rock. If I'd been as hip then as I am now, I would have never consented to be named Rock.
