I had known Cole Porter in Hollywood and New York, spent many a warm hour at his home, and met the talented and original people who were drawn to him.
We've all met those who seem to radiate happiness. They seem to smile more than others; they laugh more than others - just being around them makes us happier as well.
My father moved to Hawaii from Brooklyn and my mother came there as a child from the Philippines. They met at a show where my dad was playing percussion. My mom was a hula dancer.
The enemy fought with savage fury, and met death with all its horrors, without shrinking or complaining: not one asked to be spared, but fought as long as they could stand or sit.
One of the things I find extremely challenging about the continent of Africa is that when the immediate needs and the social needs of people are not met, that kills dreams, and it's all about survival.
The herbalist I met a few times - it was great - she gave me literature about the different processes that an herbalist would do to make medicines from certain herbs and things.
While shooting 'The Unit', I went to the Middle East twice to see the troops. I met some great men and women.
Jessica Alba. I have the biggest crush on her, I can't even tell you. I met her in Vancouver when she was filming 'Good Luck Chuck.'
I'm very lucky to have a husband who cooks, for a start. It's a good partnership. I met him through a friend, and we just hit it off.
There are a lot of good memories, and because I was injured, during the rehab, I met my wife. The tennis was very good but the injuries were good for something too.
Having a college degree gave me the opportunity to be... well-rounded. Also, the people I met at the university, most of them are still my colleagues now. People I've known for years are all in the industry together.

Throughout my life, there are four people I've met who were truly original people. The other three were Groucho Marx, Jim Morrison, and Pablo Picasso.
And I loved Frank Lloyd Wright. I think he was the greatest man I have ever met in my life.
I think Carrie Preston is one of the most talented actresses I've ever met in my entire life. I've seen her do a lot of other things, and she's fantastic.
I met my wife in New York, so, we lived together there for five years, so my Swedish was kind of a gradual learning process.
It wasn't until I went to college that I met the theatre people and began to admire them because they were learning a trade that was guaranteed to make money!
The real enemy can always be met and conquered, or won over. Real antagonism is based on love, a love which has not recognized itself.
I met Patti LuPone and Elaine Paige in a party. I didn't speak too much with Patti, but she was lovely with me.
I really think that if I had met Picasso during peacetime, nothing would have happened.
