Billy Quotes

Christianity is not the faith of the complacent, the comfortable or of the timid. It demands and creates heroic souls like Wesley, Wilberforce, Bonhoeffer, John Paul the Second, and Billy Graham. Each showed, in their own way, the relentless and powerful influence of the message of Jesus Christ.
Mitt Romney

Faith, Powerful, Jesus

Angelina Jolie

Love, Dad, Sports

Russell Means

Done, Young, Heroes

Freddie Mercury

Bad, Born, Idol

I believed what my father taught me about the separation of church and state, so when I was President I never invited Billy Graham to have services in the White House because I didn't think that was appropriate. He was injured a little bit, until I explained it to him.
Jimmy Carter

Father, Him, Until

Billy Graham is one of my great lifetime heroes. I think he epitomizes the essence of what a Christian leader should be. I have participated in some of his crusades a couple of times in Atlanta. I've seen the profound impact he's had on me personally, and on other people who were not Christians and accepted Christ as Savior.
Jimmy Carter

Great, Christian, Leader

As a southerner born after the epic events of the civil rights movement, I've always wondered how on earth people of good will could have conceivably lived with Jim Crow - with the daily degradations, the lynchings in plain sight, and, as the movement gathered force, with the fire hoses and the police dogs and the billy clubs.
Jon Meacham

Good, Daily, Fire

Jason Reitman

Great, Movies, Bad

I'm getting good offers, as good as ever sometimes. I just finished a thing with Billy Bob Thornton that was the most unique part I've ever played in my life, in the most unique project.
Robert Duvall

Jessica Hahn

Judge, Either, Talks

Amy Poehler

Jenson Button

Fun, Old, Ocean

I love Charlie, Billy Burke's character. Writing for him is so spectacular, he's so funny and wry and every scene he's in he just takes. There's a scene in 'Eclipse' where Bella tells him she's a virgin, and it's the funniest, most awkward scene I've ever seen on film.
Melissa Rosenberg

Love, Funny, Character

When you make a drama, you spend all day beating a guy to death with a hammer, or what have you. Or, you have to take a bite out of somebody's face. On the other hand, with a comedy, you yell at Billy Crystal for an hour, and you go home.
Robert De Niro

Home, Death, Comedy

Boy George

Sex, Remember, Lesbian

Patricia Cornwell

Mother, Wife, Down

I lie around the floor with my cats Billy and Jazz or watch DVDs with my best friends.
Cathy Freeman

Best, Lie, Friends

My brother Billy was the joke teller. My brother Jim had a really sharp, cutting wit. And the teller of long stories, that was my brother Ed. As a child, I just absorbed everything they said, and I was always in competition for the laughs.
Stephen Colbert

Long, Everything, Said

I've had so many hot, cheesy, corny loves of music in my life. I had a very intense Billy Joel period. So once you've really Joeled it up - there's some good periods of Joel; it's not all hot cheese. But I can't judge anyone else for their cheese. I've deep-sea dived in the Gouda.
Jack Black

Life, Music, Good

As far as directors, I'm a big fan of any kind of Billy Wilder stuff. Anything he does.
Rob Zombie

Big, Far, Stuff

Tim McGraw

Work, Best, Everything

I get to hang out with Billy Bob Thornton at his house. We hang out over there every time we're in L.A., because he doesn't go out. We'll hang and he'll play us some of his tunes. It's pretty awesome.
Chris Daughtry

Time, Pretty, Play

Harold Ramis

Funny, Laugh, Him
