Given my district, it would not have been right to put together a 99-song playlist and not include Barbra Streisand. She has appeal across several demographics of the district.

Thankfully, Claire Foy is a very easy person to get along with. She's lovely.

She said she was approaching forty, and I couldn't help wondering from what direction.

I don't think any writer is a friend to the reader if he or she is not funny.

The shepherd always tries to persuade the sheep that their interests and his own are the same.

Hillary herself has said that before it was called Obamacare, it was called Hillarycare. She probably isn't so happy with that comparison now, is she?

Ellen DeGeneres is brilliant. She's funny, she's warm and she doesn't hurt anybody on her show.

We asked Jane Fonda if she would like to meet American pilots in Hanoi, but she refused, she didn't want to.

In the early 1990s, I was signed as a singer to the same label as Robyn. She was in her early teens, and I was in my twenties, so we didn't hang out, but our paths crossed so many times that we slowly got to know each other and became friends.

Angelina has a rule that she adopts children only when they are orphans.

I wouldn't change Buffy for anything and I wouldn't change the course in which she has evolved but it is nice to be able to do something that is a little different.

In the 2007 World Cup, Kelly Smith went to another level, scoring twice against Japan and dragging the team forward with an infectious enthusiasm. She changed the dynamic, and we all followed her lead.

But novels are never about what they are about; that is, there is always deeper, or more general, significance. The author may not be aware of this till she is pretty far along with it.

I don't want to be seen in every second film. I don't want the audience to say, 'Oh no, she's in this one too.'

I became an adult before I had a kid, which I highly recommend. I just like to throw her around. She's a really good snuggler, and she likes to give kisses and hugs.

I basically raised her. Ariana and I are 10 years apart, and she grew up with a really gay brother who just loves her unconditionally, and it's reciprocated.

She's a big-hearted girl with hips to match.

If a Woman can neither Love nor Honour, she does ill in promising to Obey.

Hillary Clinton's time in the Senate indicates she is happier being a policy workhorse than a show horse.

They're sheep. They like Bush enough to credit him with saving the nation after 9/11. Three thousand people get killed, and everybody thinks they're next on the list. The president comes along, and he's got his six-guns strapped on, and people think he's going to save them.
