Hegel was right when he SAID that we learn from HISTORY that man can NEVER learn ANYTHING from history.

Baseball, it is said, is only a GAME. True. And the GRAND Canyon is only a hole in Arizona. Not all HOLES, or GAMES, are CREATED equal.

When all is SAID and DONE, more is said than done.

When we'd suggested doing it, the THEATRE Royal management had said, 'Nobody wants to see Waiting for Godot.' As it HAPPENED, EVERY SINGLE ticket was booked for every single PERFORMANCE, and this confirmation that our judgment was right was sweet. Audiences came to us from all over the world. It was amazing.

I would SAY Will came at a time in my life where he saw BEAUTY in me that I didn't see in myself at the time. And, you know, he saw a diamond in the rough and kind of, PICKED me up and blew off all the dust and SAID, 'I'm telling you, I'm going to MAKE you shine, girl.'

Every man has the RIGHT to RISK his own life in order to PRESERVE it. Has it ever been said that a man who THROWS himself out the window to ESCAPE from a fire is guilty of suicide?

I've NEVER been pushy. People have said I should have been, more, but I'm not sure. I've WATCHED hugely ambitious people: the minute they've got a SUCCESS, they know where it's going, they know how to deal with it, and it all HAPPENS for them. Great. But that's not the way I - well, I don't like to use the word 'operate'.

I figured somebody WROTE a story who had a typewriter and I thought that MOVIES were made by the cowboys and that they just SAID, 'Okay, you fall off the HORSE this time.'

KENTUCKY has always said you can't REALLY make bourbon outside of Kentucky because it's a combination of the barrels and the limestone-fed springs that GIVE us the WATER. That's our STORY, and we're sticking to it.

My mother-in-law said, 'One DAY I will DANCE on your grave.' I said 'I HOPE you do; I will be buried at sea.'

When I worked with Bill Nighy on 'Wrath of the Titans,' he SAID to me, 'There's one thing you can PROMISE me, and that's NEVER, EVER, ever read your reviews.'

This is a moment that I DEEPLY wish my parents could have lived to SHARE. My father would have ENJOYED what you have so generously said of me-and my mother would have BELIEVED it.

I have SAID this MANY times, that there seems to be ENOUGH room in the world for MEDIOCRE men, but not for mediocre WOMEN, and we really have to work very, very hard.

I had to GO. A SPIRIT in my FEET SAID 'Go', and I went.
