It's actually shocking to me how hard it's been to get back into the movie business.

Red Dawn was really the most fun I ever had making a movie, because I love Westerns, and I love the idea of being a tomboy, and riding horses and shooting guns.

I love really crappy carnivals, where you think the ride is going to break. There's something so seedy about them.

And I definitely gravitate toward people who use laughter to pull themselves out of the abyss.

In my deepest parts of sadness, I'm always making a joke or being sarcastic.

It's hard not to want to strangle people when you work with them for four years.

My mother told me to raise my kids with calculated neglect. They get their self-worth from doing what they can do and not having everything done for them.

Very good in the Back to the Future movies, but was born to play Caroline in the City.

Supporting myself at an early age was the best training for life I could have possibly received.

I think it's really hard to understand the depths and the power of the love that someone has for their children unless you really have children.

I only grow hair in places that men like.

All POOR wish to become RICH, BUT all RICH wish the POOR remain POOR.

Private passions grow tired and wear themselves out; political passions, never.

The Olympic Games must not be an end in itself, they must be a means of creating a vast program of physical education and sports competitions for all young people.

Believing, desiring, deciding, and choosing correctly are the simple actions that define an increase in happiness and an increase in the inner assurance that transcends this life.

You can't just go on being a good egg. You must either hatch or go bad!

Death is the great leveller.

Segregation was wrong when it was forced by white people, and I believe it is still wrong when it is requested by black people.

He that once deceives is ever suspected.

The mob will now and then see things in a right light.

We are here to repair the world. I grew up thinking that was what everybody was trying to do.
