One of the things I keep coming back to in my writing is that society doesn't work on this mirror principle you don't have an exact replica on the left of what you have on the right. It just doesn't work that way.

Well first of all tell me is there some society you know of that doesn't run on greed? You think Russia doesn't run on greed? You think China doesn't run on greed? What is greed?

I figured out I guess that the job just makes me happy if it's not number one. So if it all works great. If it doesn't I still go home look at my kids and I have a big smile on my face.

Some people know that they are so adorable looking all they have to do is smile and dress up and they get plenty from that. Then there are some of us who early on see that that doesn't work. So we joke about it.

There is no point to samba if it doesn't make you smile.

Just because a situation is grim doesn't mean you don't have every right to smile.

I love having my hands in the dirt. It is never a science and always an art. There are no rules. And if it comes down to me versus that weed I'm trying to pull out of the ground that doesn't want to come out? I know I'll win.

Unfortunately a lot of the concepts in the Bible are based on ancient mythology that doesn't fit the findings of science.

Science has yet to isolate the Godiva Chocolate or Prada gene but that doesn't mean your weakness for pricey swag isn't woven into your DNA. According to a new study of identical twins it's less TV ads or Labor Day sales that make you buy the things you do than the tastes and temperaments that are already part of you at birth.

Aerodynamically the bumble bee shouldn't be able to fly but the bumble bee doesn't know it so it goes on flying anyway.

If Michael Steele doesn't make you sad well then there's radio host Rush Limbaugh no longer content with wanting the President to fail Rush is now calling out Mr. Obama as a girly man.

'The Killing' has a really great combination of qualities: Even though it's very sad and deals with mourning and grief it's still exciting. It's about real people and it doesn't shy from the painful points of life.

The sad truth is that opportunity doesn't knock twice.

I'm not sad about any of my life. It's so unconventional. It doesn't look anything like I thought it would.

Just because I'm talking about something that might have been a sad or painful situation doesn't mean that I'm sad or tortured 24 hours a day any more than anybody else is.

I feel quite sad for the young musicians coming up because they may never get to pay their rent properly. It doesn't matter what the genre nowadays it's so much harder than it ever was.

I was sad that Corpse Bride was so short. I would've liked to have had her around for way longer. She doesn't actually have that many scenes.

People say you should read your criticism because it will make you a better person but it doesn't. It just makes you a sad bitter old showbiz nightmare.

Women often postpone their lives thinking that if they're not with a partner then it doesn't really count. They're still searching for their prince in a way. And as much as we don't discuss that because it's too embarrassing and too sad I think it really does exist.

It doesn't hurt to feel sad from time to time.

Maybe I'm naively romantic but I do believe that spice and excitement doesn't stop once a couple gets together.

My husband Sal and I put date nights on the calendar once a week. I know that doesn't sound romantic but otherwise it won't get done.

If a man lets all of my dogs sleep in the bed with us then that is the most romantic thing. You must love my dogs in order to love me. A man who is nice to my animals and doesn't shoo them away - well that's the height of romance.

People always have an opinion. Doesn't mean it's right doesn't mean it's wrong but we have to respect their opinion.
