I'm afraid to do theater now.

Fame is an odd thing. It bugs you a little bit, but it's really not bad.

I was a pretty disruptive student in class in school. I had a hard time paying attention. I had what they call A.D.D. now, back then I was just a hyper kid.

Acting may be how I've made my living, but music has always been my passion.

I'll be a little bummed out if I make it to my 70s and didn't have a kid. I have two dogs and I know how much I love them. I would like to love and raise a kid.

I discovered that I act because I really love to act. I don't act because maybe it will get me a magazine cover or that I can get on a talk show.

I'm sick of playing romantic leads.

I thought if I wanted people to take me seriously, I needed to act serious and not reveal too much of my private life so people could seriously accept me in different things.

I feel like a visitor just about everywhere.

I don't want to slam the cute and fun movies out there, but it gets old.

Look, I've done some low-budget movies and I've done some big-budget movies, and the big-budget movies were always kind of disorganized.

Wait. You think I'm going to die? That's why you slept with me?

Clear out all of those doubts and fears. Let the past be the past. It's time.

Music is my life, professionally, for nearly 60 years. To be recognized by the academy is still the highest honor.

Look, it's one of the great mysteries of the world, I cannot answer that question. I think I'm vaguely blonde. To be perfectly frank, I don't know.

Everything must be free to be written and published without restraint.

When I talk to idiots, I get loud!

To remain ignorant of history is to remain forever a child

If you miss one class, you know it; if you miss two classes, your teacher knows it, and if you miss three classes, the audience knows it

How many of us have enough trust, strength, and faith to believe that we could do the impossible?

Having to try and going through the trials and tribulations to actually overcome, to get there to win, to triumph, that's what makes life interesting
