I love 'House' - I love 'House' so much.

I keep lip gloss everywhere. It always makes me feel like I am slightly put together.

Seriously, I will probably out-talk you if you come up to me because I'm a chatterbox.

Throughout my career nervousness and stage-fright have never left me before playing. And each of the thousands of concerts I have played at I feel as bad as I did the very first time.

Ah, summer, what power you have to make us suffer and like it.

The most important thing for a good marriage is to learn how to argue peaceably.

The difference between a welfare state and a totalitarian state is a matter of time.

The best way to defend America in this world we live in is to stay on the offense.

Tape "Seinfeld" for me.

There are a million people who can come up with little bits. The hard work is making those bits into something.

For decades, the violence in the Middle East has claimed a multitude of innocent civilian victims: Men, women and children, Arab and Israeli.
