I talk to women's groups all over the country and see women struggling with this. The fear of not being accepted of being different of not having a man all make it hard for a woman to do what she really believes is right for her.

People have a fear of the unknown. Insects have different senses than us different amount of limbs and their body structure is very different. It's hard for us to really relate to them and understand them.

Respect and fear are two different things.

Uncertainty and fear and ignorance about immigrants about people who are different has a history as old as our Nation.

I've noticed a lot of younger artists have less fear of doing different sorts of things whether it's various types of music or gallery artists moving between video and sculpture and drawing.

Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result but the cause of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.

I thought that somehow your life would be much different when you're famous... and it's not. You just buy more stuff.

Going to New York to do whatever - show business - it just seemed fun. It seemed fun to go to the big city and meet all kinds of different people and maybe be famous. It was just exciting. So I wasn't scared.

When someone becomes successful or rich and famous people perceive that person as being different. But I'm the same guy I've always been.

I used to think no one should go into show biz but now I feel differently. I now feel like it's a great career. If you can do it and make money at it and still not be so famous that you can have a normal life - then I think it's a great career.

When I was a kid the idea of why I wanted acting to be the thing I do for the rest of my life was different. It was Oh yeah I'll get girls and be famous.

I'm terrified of being too famous. What I'm really afraid of is that the audiences will go into the theater and not be able to forget that it's me that fame will stand in the way of my acting. I want to keep being able to change into different shapes and different personalities.

Decide very early on: do you want to be an actor or do you want to be famous? Because they're very different routes.

In opera as with any performing art to be in great demand and to command high fees you must be good of course but you must also be famous. The two are different things.

I know there are people if I go into a market or a city for the first time there are people that are there that just want to see the famous person or the guy from 'Dumb and Dumber' or whatever movie they liked. And that's fine it gets them in the door but then it's my job to give them something different.

A lot of people these days are not music lovers - they just want to be famous which is a very different thing to what I grew up believing in.

I lost some of my friends because I got so famous people who just assumed that I would be different now. I felt like everyone hated me. That is the most unhappy time of my life.

Because you know when you first become famous you start walking a little different because people are staring at you.

I think 'Tattoo''s a song that can go so many different ways. Some people think of it as a break-up song but for me it's about somebody who comes into your life and really touches you - be they a friend a family member or someone you're in a relationship with.

As children we recognized that we belonged to an unusual even exceptional family but the effect was different on each of us.

The functions of the family in a highly differentiated society are not to be interpreted as functions directly on behalf of the society but on behalf of personality.

I do all of the grocery shopping in my little family. I buy cheese of many different kinds sliced packaged meats and poultry bagels immense quantities of eggs pre-made fried chicken. Milk. Bacon. It is insane how much dairy deli and bakery stuff I buy.

I now have two different audiences. There's the one that has been watching my action films for 20 years and the American family audience. American jokes less fighting.

My family isn't really all that different from anyone else's. Well maybe they're a bit more entertaining.
