Actually criminal sanctions that are given could be up to five years for violating the rules and regulations under the campaign finance reform. This is like the Alien and Sedition Act of years and years ago decades ago.

In Australia they set up a special fund to kick films off. It was quite an enlightened sort of move. You could go to this government bureau with scripts and and get finance for films.

At this point I don't get hired a lot because people don't think I could finance a movie.

I remember looking at the sky and thinking that the universe is so big and it's all chaos. I call it 'the dark fear.' At any moment the dark fear could come in.

The day in 2004 when the radiologist told me I had invasive cancer I walked down the hospital corridor looking for a phone to call my husband and I could almost see the fear coming toward me like a big black shadow.

I could write an entertaining novel about rejection slips but I fear it would be overly long.

It's the opinion of some that crops could be grown on the moon which raises the fear that it may not be long before we're paying somebody not to.

Another parent's different approach raises the possibility that you've made a mistake with your child. We simply can't tolerate that because we fear that any mistake no matter how minor could have devastating consequences. So we proclaim the superiority of our own choices. We've lost sight of the fact that people have preferences.

We all have that burning question about what happens if we lose somebody we love especially if we lose them tragically. We wonder what fear was going on we wonder if we could have reached out and touched them held their hand looked in their eyes been there.

'Freedom from fear' could be said to sum up the whole philosophy of human rights.

Luck is everything... My good luck in life was to be a really frightened person. I'm fortunate to be a coward to have a low threshold of fear because a hero couldn't make a good suspense film.

That fear first created the gods is perhaps as true as anything so brief could be on so great a subject.

When I was in fourth grade... this wonderful teacher said you didn't have to write a book report you could just talk about the book you could do a drawing of the book you could write a play inspired by the book and that's what I did. I got to be so famous. I had to go around to every school and perform it. It was just so natural and fun.

When I came to New York I began to meet the people who became the most famous artists of our time. I was insecure about my own level of ability I didn't know whether I could compete with these people and at the same time. I was wondering what is this anyway?

I totally related to Cole Porter's magnetic pull to any piano that was in the room which he was famous for doing as was Gershwin. You couldn't drag them away from a piano.

It struck me that working digitally with a small crew I could lay out a general plan for Famous and hope for mistakes which would create something more than satire and something less than truthful reality.

When I first became famous I didn't know if I could go where I wanted to because I didn't know how people were going to act. Some folks would scream and holler and I didn't know what to do with that.

I don't like being recognised I have no interest in being famous at all I just do what I do. If I could be like Captain Kirk and beam myself up and then beam myself down I would!

To seduce a woman famous for strict morals religious fervor and the happiness of her marriage: what could possibly be more prestigious?

If I wanted to be famous I could have been famous before.

It was a mixed blessing to have famous parents. It was tough to go to auditions and be bad since I couldn't be anonymous.

I could have been more famous if I did all the glitzy things but celebrity always seemed so unnecessary.

Exploitation films were famous for taking an issue an exploiting it because they could move much faster than a studio could. If there was any hot topic they would run out and make a quick movie and make a buck on it by changing it around and using it in some way to give some relevance.

None of my characters are rich or famous and the situations they find themselves in could happen to anyone.
