Victoria Abril

Then, in 2000, John Reid, Elton John's former manager, asked me to audition for the stage version of The Graduate he was producing. So I worked on it, got the part, and after three weeks' rehearsal I was on stage!
Jerry Hall

When I was building the Vietnam Memorial, I never once asked the veterans what it was like in the war, because from my point of view, you don't pry into other people's business.
Maya Lin

It's nice to be asked to do good projects.

Whatever coach Coker wanted me to do, I was willing to do... If he wanted me to sit the rest of the year, then that's what I would have done. This opportunity came and he asked me if I wanted to play. Any player is going to say yes.

Bob Geldof

Well, I asked him who would start the war first.

Prince Andrew

Michael Jackson asked me to sign a Playboy. I was more than happy to.
