Quotations
'There's a lot of mathematics in music. It's all in groups of eight, mate, y'know. The one thing that I may have in common with John is that the subject matter I do know, the driving part of my life, my work life, there's a point where structure and scaffolding is left behind and intuition takes over. That's the difference between John and the next 100 mathematicians. He's fully prepared to leave the scaffolding behind and get into the ether of the equation and find the answer quicker. The bane of his existence, however, is finding the proof.'

'I was always embarrassed because my dad wore a suit and my mother wore flat pumps and a cozy jumper while my friends' parents were punks or hippies.'

'Until Ace Ventura, no actor had considered talking through his ass.'
View quotes by Jim Carrey
'The people who worked at the clubs just assumed I was a tag along girlfriend or groupie. I'd get up on stage and the audience was just like, 'Show me your tits!' I had nothing to show anyway!'
View quotes by Gwen Stefani
I don't know. People always think that there has got to be a dark side to everyone, a closet with skeletons, demons under the bed. People think all kinds of things about one another. They feel compelled to make up fears and false assumptions about their closest friends. Truth is, I'll never know all there is to know about you just as you will never know all there is to know about me. Humans are by nature too complicated to be understood fully. So, we can choose either to approach our fellow human beings with suspicion or to approach them with an open mind, a dash of optimism and a great deal of candour.

I almost resent the whole fashion thing. Good God - never wearing the same thing twice and all of those things. It's a pain in the ass.
View quotes by Jennifer Aniston
I don't think we've been influenced massively by our success and by our travels. The lyrics [singer Chris Martin] writes are more basic than that, more basic, emotional ideas rather than life experiences. There's probably a few lines in there which reflect what's happened in the last year or so, but it's hard to say

On Blur bassist Alex James: I used to punch Alex a lot. He used to say really annoying things. I think he liked being punched.

I happen to adore red lipstick. It just gets on everything, so I usually only wear it when I do laundry bare-assed.

There's a sculpture in our bedroom, a solid brass replica of Antonio's manhood. It's very expensive, he gave it to me as a romantic gift.
View quotes by Melanie Griffith
I don't believe in the so-called Latino explosion when it comes to movies. Jennifer Lopez doesn't have an accent. She grew up in New York speaking English not Spanish. Her success is very important because she represents a different culture, but it doesn't help me. I grew up in Mexico, not the US, and the fact is that there just aren't any parts for Latin actresses. I have to persuade people that my accent won't be a problem, but an asset.

Why do they call it an asteroid when it's outside the hemisphere, but call it a haemorrhoid when it's on the outside of your ass?
View quotes by Billy Connelly
It's just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up.
View quotes by Muhammad Ali
If my jeans could talk, would I be embarrassed?
View quotes by Brooke Shields
'People think, 'Wow, you're an actress, so people must be really nice to you and kiss your ass.' NOBODY kisses my ass.'
View quotes by Alicia Silverstone
O, my love is like a red, red rose,
That's newly sprung in June.
O, my Love is like the melody,
That's sweetly played in tune.
As fair thou art, my bonnie lass,
So deep in love am I:
And I will love thee still, my dear,
Till all the seas go dry:
Till all the seas go dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt with the sun;
I will love thee still my dear,
While the sands of life shall run.
And fare thee well, my only Love,
And fare thee well a while!
And I will come again, my Love,
Though it were ten thousand mile.

Some have at first for wits, then poets passed,
Turned critics next, and proved plain fools at last (An Essay on Criticism)

'Nicole - Knickers, as I call her. I would swear, burp and fart in front of her. I'd try and embarrass her and she would pretend to be shocked. I always played up on that. It was a real elder sister-younger brother relationship.'

[There are] only two classes of pedestrians in these days of reckless motor traffic - the quick, and the dead.
View quotes by Lord Dewar
I've heard them lilting, at the ewe milking.
Lasses a'lilting, before dawn of day;
But now they are moaning, on ilka green loaning;
The flowers of the forest are a' wede away. (The Flowers of the Forest)
View quotes by Jane Elliott
I love acting but I don't like all of the other stuff associated with it. The interest in celebrities, the press, the Internet, when your identity becomes mixed up in the way people are perceiving you.
View quotes by Nicole Kidman
"Since 'Pop Idol', I've taken out some lovely lasses, but whether they are interested in me or my brief interlude with fame, I'm not sure."
