When people say 'love to hate', they actually mean 'love to be appalled by' - if they truly hated them, they'd never repeat a catch phrase.
I have never been a material girl. My father always told me never to love anything that cannot love you back.
I deal with unhappy marriages a lot. I've never been married, I'm single.
What's odd is that I've never been asked to do any comedy in film. That's something I could certainly do.
Let's say there was a fat guy heckling me. I would rip him to shreds, but I would never go for the obvious, never talk about how he's fat or anything.
Other people have often had more faith in me than I had in myself - I never thought I could pull off Roberta Muldoon in 'The World According to Garp,' or 'Of Mice and Men's' Lennie as one of my first acting jobs.
Harvey never had an original idea or thought in his life. I was out wandering around the country doing charity benefits, mainly, when I asked him to come along.
I never thought for a second that anything I ever did was going to make someone cringe. That never occurred to me.
I like making films about different cultures. I'm interested in things that I've never encountered before. I try to put myself in the audience's position.
I read 'The Hobbit' while at school. It was OK; can't really remember too much from there, other than the fact I was 10! I never read it again until the script for the film, but it has to be an amazing story when you know Sir Peter Jackson has made three films out of it.
I never wanted to be a celebrity; I never wanted to be famous. And in my daily life, I work really hard to not trade on it in any way.
Throughout your teens and twenties, it's pretty easy to live in a suspended reality - one where you never get old or need to spend much time thinking about 401Ks, mammograms, or renewing your license. You don't need me to tell you: that ends.
People call me wild. Not really though, I'm not. I guess I've never been normal, not what you call Establishment. I'm country.
I'm always improving and I want to get better and never hit a plateau. I find it an amazing adventure.
I have zero hand-eye coordination - zero - so I've never been good at softball, basketball, golf, things like that, but I'm really strong and I have really good endurance so I can go forever - I'm a tough girl.
I never had any coffee or anything like that. I just never tried it.
I have never been offended. I don't know what it means. It's not that I disagree with it. I don't understand it. I've never had that feeling. I don't let feelings control my life. I'm more disciplined than other people.
Never idealize others. They will never live up to your expectations.
With each generation, women's ability to live the lives they choose reaches a place their grandmothers never thought possible. But that doesn't mean everything is perfect or that our work is finished.
I'm never sick. Why get sick? It's a waste of time.
I had no intention of being an actor. I was quite good at it. I was pretty capable at other things but never any good at anything.
Never mistake activity for achievement.
I never thought acting would be my life. I only started doing it because I needed something to occupy my weekends after I dislocated my knee and couldn't play sport.
The fishermen know that the sea is dangerous and the storm terrible, but they have never found these dangers sufficient reason for remaining ashore.
But I knew if I ran I'd never be able to sing, so I had to take my punishment.
When I teach and meet a class for the first time, you realize that there are people there that have exceptional abilities or have the potential to do exceptional things and you never know who those people are. My job is to provide the best information I can.
Democracy... while it lasts is more bloody than either aristocracy or monarchy. Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There is never a democracy that did not commit suicide.
As an artist, you do understand you're never going to please everybody.
When I was building the Vietnam Memorial, I never once asked the veterans what it was like in the war, because from my point of view, you don't pry into other people's business.
I'm no rose. I have been around a while, and you never know when something is going to be the last thing you do.
I never thought of becoming a director. When I was twelve, the passage from silent film to the talkies had an impact on me - I still watch silent films.
Never had there been such an attempt to make conquest the servant of civilization. About keeping India there is no question. England has a real duty there.
The sadness of the incomplete, the sadness that is often Life, but should never be Art.
Mayors could never get away with the kind of nonsense that goes on in Washington. In our world, you either picked up the trash or you didn't. You either moved an abandoned car or you didn't. You either filled a pothole or you didn't. That's what we do every day. And we know how to get this stuff done.
I could never be like Hitchcock and do only one kind of movie. Anything that's good is worthwhile.
You'll never see me in the red leather. I don't have the chin for it.
