I grew up on film sets and I had a ball. It wouldn't have had nearly as much fun if my dad had been working behind a desk somewhere. I remember being on the set of 'The Godfather: Part III,' and all the kids were running around and doing crazy things, and Francis Ford Coppola just embraced that.

Garrett Hedlund

Just personally, I've been attached to 'On the Road' since 2007 and it was the greatest thing in my life when I got cast in it. I couldn't believe it. When I was 17 and read the book, I looked it up on IMDb and it said that Francis Ford Coppola was going to direct it.

Stella Pence

Our choice of Mickey is so obvious. He has been around so long he has become a part of American history. It just took a while to recognize his value as a national treasure. Mickey was a star at the same time Gloria Swanson reigned, the Telluride Film Festival's very first Silver Medallion recipient. After his crash, we thought his career had ended when he appeared in noir quickies, but he was rediscovered by Francis Ford Coppola and played Henry in 'The Black Stallion.' Mickey went on to win an Emmy for his performance of a mentally impaired man in 'Bill.' He still performs in live shows. No one has seen more of Hollywood than Mickey.

Sofia Coppola is wonderful, and I'd love to work with her.

Steve Harrington

We really knocked down some threes, and that kind of separated things quickly. We continued to be unselfish out there. We're getting more and more assists each game, we're making the extra pass in order to get a better one. Coppola set the tone with his finishing at the beginning, and we're shooting the ball better.

We're going to play the game somewhere. I'll let the athletic directors handle that. I ain't gonna tell you Smith-Wills is a better ballpark than the new one, but it's been good to us over the years.

Katie Lowes

We grew up with them. Two summers ago it was like the most wretched thing you could smell on a hot summer's day.

Jill Soloway

We grew up watching Woody Allen and Albert Brooks movies, and we see this neurotic, annoying, unlikeable male at the center of a story, and people root for him anyway. I think that's really what we have been craving as women is the hero who doesn't look perfect and doesn't act perfectly.

We grew up watching gangster movies. We wanted to make a film that people would quote to each other like 'Diner' and 'Godfather,'

Kubrick is like someone like Fellini, like Kafka, like someone who really dreamt for us and gave to us the key to understand something and the pleasure to tell the story,

Wesley Morris

Standing beneath the white light of an Apple store is like standing on a Stanley Kubrick movie set. His '2001: A Space Odyssey' predicted Jobs and a future where technology was our friend. Kubrick, of course, didn't like what he saw. And occasionally, I have my doubts.

Bill Hader

In 'Winter's Bone,' it's literally the director and the camera operator. That's it. Just a super-small Kubrick crew. You know what I mean? Like, 8 people.

Jeff Lemire

A lot of cinematic influences on 'Descender' - Kubrick for sure. '2001: A Space Odyssey' is my favorite movie. It has been since I was 12. I just love that film.

Susan Dunn

We've asked the congregation a lot of different things during this period, getting opinions, because we want the whole body to be working toward the same goals.

Bob Collins

We've asked all our section pros to put their program up on the Web site and I'm really, really excited the way they're starting to get involved. We're trying to create some awareness in the area and to get people to play. People always want to know, where do I go for a class? Where do I go if my kids want to learn? You can find it in there.

Paul Stamm

We've approached the other trusts and have gotten a verbal commitment, but they would like to be able to be the monies that put us over the top in the project. This has a great chance of being a reality and we really need $10 and $25 donations from people in the community.

Joe Hudak

We've always wanted to try to figure out ways to improve our attendance. There's no doubt it's a great advantage if you can have a lot of people in the stands cheering for you and cheering against your opponents.

We've always tried to have the thing that people want.

Tim Coghlin

We've always thought they were a very skilled team but they're even more skilled than people know. They skate really well, they swarm the puck, the protect they puck well. They all have exceptional puck skills, stick skills, and they compete.

Terry Lickona

We've always known there was a reason to keep all these original masters. We've never erased a single tape from any show we've ever done. We've just about run out of space to store these tapes, but they've turned out be gems. We're proud of these old shows and we think they deserve to be seen by new generations of fans and people that have been fans all along.

Jennifer Nettles

When we were at the CMT Awards this year, Robert Plant was there. What an icon, I love him... But I can't go up and speak to him, because I don't want to seem like a goob.

Erwin Chemerinsky

You don't know who the new justice will be - or whether that justice will be there - and you have more uncertainly about John Roberts than you had with William Rehnquist.

Julia Roberts

What's nice about my dating life is that I don't have to leave my house. All I have to do is read the paper: I'm marrying Richard Gere, dating Daniel Day-Lewis, parading around with John F. Kennedy, Jr., and even Robert De Niro was in there for a day.

James Jeffords

With the information and sworn testimony on the record it is clear Judge Roberts has the necessary legal experience and character to be the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, ... It also appears that Judge Roberts will use the law and the Constitution to make his judicial decisions, not his ideological or personal beliefs.

Bryan Colangelo

With the improvement of our team over the last couple of years, hopefully there's renewed interest in this market, ... I believe that there's also a common thread now with ownership being Robert Sarver, (his) having grown up here and having gone to the university. It seems to make a lot of sense that the organization has a relationship not only with the university but the city of Tucson.

Harland Braun

We want the LAPD to investigate Robert Blake. The more they investigate, the more they'll find out he didn't do it.

Henry Zebrowski

It's so fun to hear the reaction from Martin Scorsese as he sees you nude for the first time.

Justin Timberlake

Sometimes a producer and an artist get together and they make magic like Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson. As far as my own music career - you could liken my chemistry with Timbaland to Marty Scorsese and Robert De Niro.

Asif Kapadia

Martin Scorsese was being given an honorary doctorate, and one of the tutors asked if there was a student film he particularly liked. He mentioned our film. There was a dinner after the final show just for the tutors, but I was smuggled in to meet Scorsese over dessert.

Max Winkler

I think Woody Allen calls it 'anxiety of influence.' When you're in your formative years and you watch a movie that makes you want to make movies... For Wes Anderson, it's Truffaut. I'm sure for P.T. Anderson it was Scorsese and Jonathan Demme.

Giovanni Ribisi

I think Steven Spielberg has first movies! Martin Scorsese has first movies. I don't just jump into something. I like the whole audition process.

Anthony Anderson

Leo couldn't deliver Mr. Martin Scorsese his Oscar with The Aviator, but I will go on record to say I will do so in The Departed.

Joe Pesci

Scorsese and De Niro taught me to bring out the natural side of myself. And they taught me to think of myself as the average guy. Sometimes the average guy belongs in a role more than your matinee idol-type of person. We have to have people we can relate to.

Logan Lerman

There really isn't a dream role, but there's a dream situation where I could work with a director that I idolize. So, the idea of working with David Fincher or Paul Thomas Anderson or Wes Anderson or Scorsese or Spielberg or any of the guys I really idolize is a dream for me.

Nicolas Cage

One of the things I would suggest to anybody who is feeling burnt in the film business, ... They should spend one hour with Martin Scorsese and they'll be rejuvenated, because this man has so much passion and love for the craft of filmmaking that it's impossible not to have it rub off on you. It's exhilarating to be around.

W. S. Gilbert

We found historic letters showing that Lord Stanley directed his aid-de-camp to travel to England to purchase the Cup. That was an interesting historical find.

Don Waddell

We're extremely excited to add a player of Bobby's caliber to our lineup. He's a hard-nosed player who has enjoyed a distinguished career that includes valuable Stanley Cup championship experience. He is a veteran who will play an important role in our success.

Mike Fisher

We're just looking at this as one step on a long road. We feel like we've got a good team here and we want a chance to win a Stanley Cup. That's what we're focusing on right now.

Peter Fleming

We're not asking to let Stanley out, ... We don't want him killed, that's all, because we think his message is important. Williams has without question gone through a personal redemption, has repudiated his past and has made contact with thousands of kids, teachers and parents across the country.

Nigel Coe

We believe that Stanley Works currently represents a good risk/reward opportunity for longer term value investors.

Paul DiPietro

With the Stanley Cup win, this is the greatest moment of my life.

Rolf Breuer

We achieved bulge bracket status and only Morgan Stanley is better (in terms of earnings,

Eric Brewer

When those things happen, there will be a little bit of notoriety, ... That's very easy for me to deal with because I've never played hockey just for that reason, the honors. If I didn't get those honors, that would be fine too. I always like to play well and do well. Some things go hand in hand. What I really want from hockey is a Stanley Cup ring.

Peter Fleming

ignores the needs of California's youth and the sense of hope and future that Stanley Williams brings to so many who are disadvantaged.

Rev. Donaldson

When we went through it, we had nowhere to turn, no one to talk to who had a similar experience. Small, rural churches usually have no money and little or no insurance to rebuild. So we helped form an organization that gives guidance to pastors whose churches have burned.

Mallory Dietrich

When it comes down to it, it's just a time you are trying to beat, no matter whose it is. Hopefully it will stay for a few years.

Bob Young

We've recruited a very professional team and it's simply a sign of maturity of our organization that we want the professionals whose careers are at stake in making this thing work properly,

Maya Angelou

When we cast our bread upon the waters, we can presume that someone downstream whose face we will never know will benefit from our action, as we who are downstream from another will profit from that grantor's gift

Joe Farren

What about the young parents whose baby sitter is trying to call them, or the brain surgeon who needs notification of emergency surgery. These calls need to get through.

Ben Bernanke

We benefit from foreign direct investment. Many Americans are employed by foreign companies with plants in the United States, for example in the automobile industry. So, trade is a two way street. I think, it is important to protect Americans who lose their jobs, or whose jobs come under pressure from international trade. But, I think, we need to be careful not to embrace economic isolationism.

Keith Benjamin

We believe we should be less concerned with picking the bottom of the market and begin to accumulate those stocks whose fundamentals appear to be improving.

Ron Meyer

Universal had its most profitable year ever in 2005 due in no small part to Marc, whose impact on this company has been the foundation for its unique culture and its far-ranging achievements, His combination of strengths is unique in that he has been able to attract exceptional creative talent in a specialty film environment and at the same time is revered in the global sales and distribution community for his taste and acumen.

Erin Delaney

We've basically been playing a similar offense, we run the same offense. The purpose of the junior varsity is to work together. It's not about wins, it's about getting better.

Katie Montgomery

We've barely had enough to go five-on-five, but we're ready to be aggressive and do whatever it takes to win. We've beaten tough teams this season. We know how to double-team and help each other out. We just have to be focused and work hard.

William Daley

We've asked the lawyers to work overnight to draft some documents, and we'll be back in the morning.

David Snowden

We've always worked well within DoD guidelines and of course will continue to do so. We support the directive and all regulations that would protect military members from unscrupulous business practices.

David Mandelbrot

We've always worked directly with the owners of content to make that content available. In our experience, that has not slowed us down too much, and it has helped us to build strong relationships that have helped us in other parts of our business.

Anthony Dragona

We've always worked cooperatively with the department, and we're only asking for cost of living increases.

Frank Williams

We've always had the vision for developing Cross Bayou. It's a beautiful vision, but it's just a vision. It's going to take a whole lot of money, a whole lot of planning and a whole lot of work to get there.

Juli Inkster

We've always got a good field here, and the course and the facilities are great. We've all enjoyed the experience here. I think it's great that they're trying to work it out to stay.

Aleksey Igudesman

We've always dreamt of a TV series and working in film. When we first sat down to seriously write 'A Little Nightmare Music,' to write something for TV was our original inspiration. But all the stuff we were writing down is not going to work on stage. We had to rewrite it so it would work on the stage.
