There's always going to be that pressure when you're in front of the camera. When you're famous it's just an extreme version of reality and there's a pressure to look a certain way.

The Band was always famous for its retirements we'd go and play and get a little petty cash together and then not see each other till it was time to fill our pockets up again.

Famous crime stories almost always lead to the passing of new laws.

I was a shy kid but somehow I knew I would make it as a performer. I'd always be telling my mum that I was going to be a famous singer. In my school yearbooks I would write 'Remember me when I'm famous.' I knew I had a gift.

I've always had confidence. Before I was famous that confidence got me into trouble. After I got famous it just got me into more trouble.

The hardest thing about being famous is that people are always nice to you.

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

I never wanted to do biography just to tell the life of a famous man. I always wanted to use the life of a man to examine political power because democracy shapes our lives.

It's always a little mind-boggling to realize that these famous actors know who I am.

The good thing about L.A. is that there's always someone more famous 100 yards away from me.

Ever since grammar school I knew I wanted to be famous - I always wanted to be a singer.

People don't get through to the essence of you right away - it's always the famous 'girl' or the famous 'girlfriend'. I'd rather be known for myself.

Nobody wants to end up super rich and famous - but divorced. I'm always clear on that and try to stay on the right side of the line.

I always loved working as an actress but I didn't understand why I couldn't just opt out of being famous. And then I realized you can and I think I did. And eventually I came to understand that you can do that and also keep working.

Famous people come up to me but I don't know who they are because my sight is so bad. It's always at the pool of the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills when I don't have my lenses in and my glasses are in my room.

Did you ever stop to think why cops are always famous for being dumb? Simple. Because they don't have to be anything else.

The hardest thing about being famous is that people are always nice to you. You're in a conversation and everybody's agreeing with what you're saying - even if you say something totally crazy. You need people who can tell you what you don't want to hear.

I always want to say to people who want to be rich and famous: 'try being rich first'. See if that doesn't cover most of it. There's not much downside to being rich other than paying taxes and having your relatives ask you for money. But when you become famous you end up with a 24-hour job.

I'm not comfortable being around too many people. I don't like being out in public too much. I don't like going to bars. I don't like doing celebrity stuff. So most of the characters I play are people who don't always feel comfortable beyond their small circle of friends.

I've always known I wanted a family.

I've always been part of comedy. One of the things about our family was that if we were reasonably funny with each other particularly my two brothers and myself when my father was upset with something you'd want to make sure in some way you made him laugh. Because when he didn't laugh you were in trouble!

I have a lot of responsibilities outside myself. I have a large family. I want to know I can always be helpful.

I think with motherhood and child-rearing in general everyone's going to tell you how to do it and why. I've always said to other mothers and women when they've asked me that you have to find your own way and find out what works for your family at all costs.

I always loved family holidays and I had this vision and dream as a little girl of having a big family of my own.
