People say, 'Gee, you don't really do political music.' Well, I sing a lot of songs about how men and women and lovers treat each other, and none of us want to be talked down to or belittled or ignored or disrespected... So I'm proud to be a feminist...
I discovered that men were just like everyone else, really. They liked you if you were good-tempered and easy to talk to. And being a big girl meant other females trusted you more and confided in you.
If at my funeral they're talking about my boxing stories, I'd be disappointed because this is just a springboard for when I'm finished. It's just a game. It's pretty silly when you think about it: two grown men punching each other in the face and tak...
I get criticized for a lot of what I write about, but as far as I'm concerned I'm actually standing up and having a look at what goes on in the minds of men, and I have the authority to talk about it because I'm a man.
Gay marriage is absolutely something that I am in full support of and a big advocate of, and I think it's an important issue, but there's a reason that I don't talk about politics and why I'll never be in politics. I am not the person to ever do that...
When I was little I used to dance and model and that was fun. But I was always the person that was goofing off and I would memorize every line in every movie that I saw. And at recess that's what I would do, I would talk to my friends and recite movi...
When we talk about Oscars, it's almost as a symbol of excellence, and the American public and the worldwide public accept that symbol. So, a movie like 'The Artist' that costs $14 million, has to go out and compete with movies that cost $140 million....
Before I'd written movies, I never could do big set-piece scenes with a lot of different speakers - when you've got twelve people around a dinner table talking at cross purposes. I had always been impressed by other people's ability to do that.
The only thing I'm nervous about is talking to guests like human beings, because all of my interviews so far have been attacking people. I have a genuine concern about sitting across from an actor whose movies I obviously haven't seen.
I don't watch the movies I make, so I haven't seen 'Footloose' since it came out. You see this young, hungry actor, it's pretty fun. I was the only one they screen tested. It was an attempt by the director and producer to talk the head of the studio ...
Statesman: [after the army starts marching in the fields, talking nervously] What shall we do? Theron: What can we do? King Leonidas: [sneers] What can you do? Sparta will need sons.
Ben Wade: [Talking to William about Dodge City] Woman'll do things to ya, you'll never forget. Doc Potter: They give you disease you'll never forget.
Briony Tallis, aged 13: Cee? Cecilia Tallis: Yes? Briony Tallis, aged 13: Why don't you talk to Robbie anymore? Cecilia Tallis: I do. We just move in different circles, that's all.
Fred: [talking through camera] Hiro if I could have any superpower right now, it would be the ability to crawl through this camera and give you a big hug.
Geisler: Look, you confused? You need guidance? Talk to another writer. Barton: Who? Geisler: Jesus, throw a rock in here, you'll hit one. And do me a favor, Fink: throw it hard.
Jason Bourne: [talking to Conklin] I told you to come alone, but I guess that was too hard. So try this - I'm gone. [hangs up cell phone]
Grandpa: You know, Ralf, your mother really is sick. She's been talking about this visit for weeks. Mother: Maybe that's what's made her sick.
Nina: It's just a rash. Erica: [panicking] A rash? What are you talking about? Nina: It was worse a few days ago. It's fine already. Erica: You've been scratching yourself again.
Lily: So, how is he? Thomas? Nina: I wouldn't know. Lily: Oh come on. Nina: I really don't want to talk about that. Lily: [sarcastically] Ah, okay! You really need to relax.
My first book is really about heat. That book, for me, was an exploration of heat as ingredient. Why we don't talk about heat as an ingredient, I don't quite understand, because it is the common ingredient to all cooking processes.
For me, it was kind of like going into the military or something. And anybody - any male - who has ever worked in a French kitchen knows what I am talking about when I say that.
