I don't gamble anymore since I had a kid. I have fun in Vegas. I see shows, Cirque du Soleil. Don Rickles was in town last time I was there. I'll have lunch with George Wallace. I just look in the Weekly calendar and see who's performing, and inevita...

When I heard that there were artists, I wished I could some time be one. If I could only make a rose bloom on paper, I thought I should be happy! Or if I could at last succeed in drawing the outline of winter-stripped boughs as I saw them against the...
When I was around 13 or 14, I started getting really into songwriting. And one day, I was rooting through my mum's old tapes and records, and I found 'Grace' by Jeff Buckley. I remember so vividly the first time I put it on. It blew my mind: his voic...

Phil Wenneck: Stu, we don't have time for this. Look, let's go hook up with Doug, and we'll deal with the baby later. Stu Price: Phil, we're not gonna leave a baby in the room, there's a fucking tiger in the bathroom! Phil Wenneck: It's not our baby....
Theoden: So much death. What can men do against such reckless hate? Aragorn: Ride out with me. Ride out and meet them. Theoden: For death and glory. Aragorn: For Rohan. For your people. Theoden: The Horn of Helm Hammerhand will sound in the deep, one...
Charlotte: [Bob is recollecting when he first saw Charlotte, in the elevator] Did I scowl at you? Bob: No, you smiled. Charlotte: I did? Bob: Yes, it was a complete accident. A freak. I haven't seen it since. Just that one time. [Charlotte smiles] Bo...
Duke: They didn't agree on much. In fact they rarely agreed on anything. They fought all the time and they challenged each other everyday... Young Noah: [Allie and Noah are fighting] Don't push me! [Allie pushes Noah anyway] Duke: ...But in spite the...
Bill: You know, I heard you had a tough time last year. But they say if you make one friend on your first day you're doing okay. Charlie: Thank you, sir, but if my English teacher is the only friend I make today, that would be sorta depressing.
