• The highs and lows of show business is a rollercoaster for sure.

It's just higher the high, the lower the low.

• You feel sorry for yourself. You think you're missing something and you don't know what it is. You're lonely inside your life.

Die liquid, so they can convert to cash.

Do you want me to do these sketches? Great.'

• We’re suggesting that [kids are] missing something if they don’t read but, actually, we’re condemning kids to a lesser life.
