I would have loved to do 'Alice in Wonderland.' Being a 'Bond' girl would always be fun. We had a lot of action in 'Eclipse' and I'd definitely like to continue down the action road. I want to do a romantic period piece but those are really hard to get made because they're very expensive and there's not a huge demographic.

The dark comedies tend to be in a non-releasable area. There can be romantic comedies. There can be dramas. But there's no 'dark comedy' inbox for the advertising.

You cannot look up at the night sky on the Planet Earth and not wonder what it's like to be up there amongst the stars. And I always look up at the moon and see it as the single most romantic place within the cosmos.

People expect me to be dark and gloomy then write that I'm a jolly chap and after all that is what I am. I think it's a case of an absolute romantic naivety that there should be a parallel between the work and the artist.

I joined the air force. I took to it immediately when I arrived there. I did three years eight months and ten days in all but it took me a year and a half to get disabused of my romantic notions about it.

I think as a young actress it's very rare that you read something where you're not either 'the girl' or there to serve some romantic purpose in a male dominated cast.

Yeah but there's nobody who represents romance to me like Cary Grant.

There's something about the sound of a train that's very romantic and nostalgic and hopeful.

There are certain romances that belong in certain cities in a certain atmosphere in a certain time.

There's something really great and romantic about being poor and sleeping on couches.

Remember beneath every cynic there lies a romantic and probably an injured one.

Well being that at the house and being in the competition it was very hard to be with family. We couldn't have visitors out of respect for everyone else there. But being the American Idol the focus would have been on me.

There's immense fun to be had as long as you can sort of sneak it past DC. I have been told on occasion that I need to have more respect for these characters.

People ask me all the time 'Are you fed up with reality TV?' At the end of the day it can affect my career in the sense that the more reality shows there are the less scripted dramas out there but I can't ever really knock them. I started on 'Popstars ' which was a reality talent show. I have respect for them.

You can find academic and industrial groups doing some relevant work but there isn't a focus on building complex molecular systems. In that respect Japan is first Europe is second and we're third.

There are some people who become best friends with everyone they photograph. There are people that I really like and admire and respect but in a way I think it's better to keep a distance. I think you get better pictures of people that you don't know very well.

Second there are two problems with respect to mobile homes in particular. One is we obviously don't want to put them in a flood plain because if there's another flood you're going to lose the mobile home.

I have the most respect for Zach Woodlee. He is one of my favorite - and one of the most capable - choreographers out there right now.

When about to commit a base deed respect thyself though there is no witness.

Since the composer has said everything if you discover everything it will be enough and you will be a happy man. Don't try to say it's your taste and because of that you are changing this or that. And I must say this respect is still there.

There was certainly less profanity in the Godfather than in the Sopranos. There was a kind of respect. It's not that I totally agreed with it but it was a great piece of art.

While I will always have the utmost respect for the superhuman out-of-bounds freestyle and extreme stunts that seem to continually progress beyond our imaginable limits my highest appreciation goes out to the simple rider who's out there just for the experience.

There is a certain kind of respect for authenticity today that there wasn't back in the days when they did 'Cleopatra ' where everything looked like a giant motel. People want to have it be authentic in the look and authentic in the way people behave.

Stand-up don't get no respect - it's the hardest thing to do in show business. You don't have no band and there's no music.
