I've got two sisters and they're both married and they're both much more settled into the way things are.
Sometimes I felt I got caught up kind of going into the clubhouse non-chalantly sometimes, because all of the other guys in the clubhouse didn't go there with one goal in mind.
I think, probably, the place that I feel I most belong is a movie set. It doesn't matter where it is in the world or who I'm making the movie with; that's the closest thing that I've got to a sense of placement. So I guess acting was a way of finding a home, if that makes sense.
Seattle's support system got me through those early, difficult years. It was a very funky, very friendly, very relaxed place that had it all for a writer.
That got me to L.A. and reintroduced me to my future husband.
We very quickly forget about the wonderful things we've got. People lose their excitement because there's too much. Basically we're experiencing nothing, because everything is available to us.
We've all got setbacks.

I was lucky enough to get a very good agent at the age of 15, and got my first film when I was 16, so it's been rolling on since then.
I was the one that was always dancing and got along with everybody, but I also spoke my mind. If I didn't agree with something the teacher would say, I'd tell her, so I would get in trouble for things like that. I've always been a good/bad boy.
Often I pretended to a cameraman to know less than I did. That way I got more cooperation.
I had gone to the doctor. The doctor said, 'You're healthy as a horse. You've got two weight problems - two health problems because of your weight. Please do something.'
I think Helen of Troy must have been pretty hot. She got two countries going crazy for 10 years over her.
If the people in the audience are talking, you're being ignored. If the people are gazing at you, you've got something they want to hear.
If you're a coach and your team doesn't win, at some point you've got to change the coach.
Even Woodstock turned out to be a disaster. Everybody was stuck in the mud and people got sick.
I'm very concerned for the future of the earth and its amazing creatures. We've got to be careful and make sure we don't foul our own nest.
What have I got? No looks, no money, no education. Just talent.
I remember walking down the aisle, and I got down on my knees as a person who is so selfish, but when I rose back up the Lord had become the Master of my life.
Oh yeah, I mean every fighter has got be dedicated, learn how to sacrifice, know what the devotion is all about, make sure you're paying attention and studying your art.
Profile has half the publishing and they control and administer the publishing and distribute and own the records, so our group is a 10-point crew. But we got a lot of money off of the shows.
Lord, I'm going to hold steady on to You and You've got to see me through.
I think we have got to start thinking about banding together in terms of interested groups.
I did fringe theatre for so many years, and then I got my first play at the RSC, which was an amazing feeling, but I was 30 and had started acting in my early twenties.
While I was in high school, I started working professionally and got an agent.
I got involved in Gateway National Park and just became fascinated with gardens.
One of the things that has to be faced is the process of waiting to change the system, how much we have got to do to find out who we are, where we have come from and where we are going.
It just makes everything more pleasurable when you've got someone that emotionally is there to rely on.
My experience of being on the public platform got more multi-faceted, multi-dimensional, and my place in the public eye, I think, has always been a little more than just what is going on in that time in my life.
My high-school a cappella teacher would embarrass me in front of the choir. 'Mavis, you're in the basement. Mavis, you're singing with the boys.' I said, 'Mr. Finch, my voice isn't soprano. I can't sing up there with the girls.' So I just got out of the choir.
I've got to be careful what I say but Glenn Mulcaire was a blagger and a phone hacker.
I got into rock music at thirteen, listening to Van Halen, learned how to play the electric guitar.
I was a good decathlete until I got with a coach that really knew how to train specifically for the event... I'd really describe it as like being a juggler; you have ten balls and you're trying to get them all in the air at the same time.
I wasn't in school often enough to really belong to a 'clique,' but my friends all studied hard and got pretty good grades. They were good people with self-respect. I still like to be friends with people I admire something about; I really believe that we become like the people we're surrounded by, so I choose my friends carefully!
I think, to be a successful author, you've got to be part recluse and part show-off.
I got into beards right in the middle of the hipster boom.
