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

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

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

I like people-watching and fading into crowds.

In some roles I have to wear fur, and I always make sure it's fake, like in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. Faux fur is great because it shows people that faux can look fabulous.

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

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

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 was a full foot taller than any child my age.

It's a very lonely place, being an addict.

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

Beware what you speak, ' said the Merlin very softly, 'for indeed the words we speak make shadows of what is to come, and by speaking them we bring them to pass, my king.

Maybe there's only a dark road ahead. But you still have to believe and keep going. Believe that the stars will light your path, even a little bit. Come on... Let's go on a journey!

The desire to be connected with the cosmos reflects a profound reality, but we are connected; not in the trivial ways that astrology promises, but in the deepest ways.

You cannot be President of the United States if you don't have faith. Remember Lincoln, going to his knees in times of trial in the Civil War and all that stuff.

Acting is a way of living out one's insanity.

Now for good lucke, cast an old shooe after mee.

Still, one of the few good things about being dyslexic is that when I say I don’t read reviews, I mean I don’t read reviews.

You can learn from everybody.

A real education takes place, not in the lecture hall or library, but in the rooms of friends, with earnest frolic and happy disputation.

Love forbids you not to love.
