I messed around in high school, but I pretty much put it away until I did a television show in San Francisco.
It's really cool to know that you've put something together that isn't for a particular audience. It's so often that a TV show can really only speak to one sect of the population, and this really is something that appeals to a worldwide fan base. People who are into the pursuit of knowledge. Their reaction has meant the world to us.
Growing up, my parents managed to show me the importance of reading without cramming it down my throat. A difficult task, I'm sure. It breaks my heart to think that there are kids out there, ready to have their imaginations lit on fire, excited and wanting to read, and facing naked shelves in their school or local libraries. Rather than complain or wait till the system stops failing our nation's children this is a matter I feel we must take into our own hands. There are children, right now, waiting-wanting to read. What shall we tell them>
I don't get the point in a lot of biopics, they're boring. You know what's gonna happen. You're just watching actors show off.
Clint Eastwood is an extraordinary director because he knows the value of a buck. He knows where it will show on the screen.
I was born and raised to entertain other people. I've heard laughter and applause and known a lot of sorrow. Everything about me is based on show business - I think it will bring me happiness. I hope so.
My introduction to acting was through theatre, so I actually saw a couple of Broadway shows that made me want to be an actor.
And sometimes the show can't go on.
I would rather be thought of as pretty rather than sexy. It feels good to be voted by fans and that too in such huge numbers, but I don't think if you wear a bikini or show skin, you look sexy.
I don't think the show would be funny to you if you didn't already have a base of information.
I think the show does better with newsmakers and politicians than it does with actors.
I never believe them when they say that because you really have to sort of be aware of what's going on in the news in order to get the jokes on the show.
If it wasn't for what goes on in the world of politics, we wouldn't really have much of a show.
I was on the Johnny Carson show, I believe 114 or 104 times. And aside from those times on the air, I never spoke to him. I never met him
I thought that I held the record of most appearances on the Bob Hope Show, but I think - It's Brooke Shields
I was working at the store on the Sony studios in Culver City. And I was literally holding a shirt when they came in and told me I'd got the part! It just shows dreams do come true.
The insanity has to stop...It affects each and every one of us, in multiple and nefarious ways: our self-image, how we show up in our relationships and at work, our sense of our worth, value, and potential as human beings. Join in-and help change-the Conversation.
I want to have a little toy version of Morgana. I can then show it to my grandchildren one day. So I can say I used to have a waist.
I'm a big fan of all those singing competition shows. Most recently, I've been into The Voice. It's one of my secrets! And I'm definitely looking forward to The X Factor, especially because I'm a huge Simon Cowell fan. Personally, I sing for fun, but mainly in the shower, when I'm alone. Other people definitely do not want to hear me sing.
Show me your eyes and you may as well show me your cards.
I believe over the last six years now, I've been learning in between actual acting moments on the show.
Like when you go to a magic show and you know how they do the illusions. That's how I am when I watch any movies where they have people flying through the air.
I can remember when I was a baby and my mother was there watching the show. I went and bought 100 episodes and watched them. I respect it so much that the sitcom itself and Ed Norton; I'm not playing Ed Norton but my version of it, cause I'm a black man.
Taking employment out of the country - now that's taking away jobs. These shows employ a lot of people: production, post-production, music supervisors, camera people. A hundred people or more.
I really cut my teeth on off-off-off Broadway shows.
