Sandler's always good. Tom Hanks gave me some good advice.
Jimmy Fallon

I gave up on new poetry myself 30 years ago when most of it began to read like coded messages passing between lonely aliens in a hostile world.
Russell Baker

They gave me a second opportunity and 45 years later I'm still here.
Tony Oliva

Is Walt turning over in his grave? A man named Joe Roth runs Disney right now-he gave me the go-ahead and total freedom to do whatever I wanted to do.
Tim Robbins

I had been offered a Hollywood contract before my 18th birthday. It gave me the spark I needed.
Gene Tierney

I gave my word that this source would not be identified unless he changed his mind. He has not.
Bob Woodward

Chaplin was notoriously strict with his sons and rarely gave them spending money.
Gene Tierney

I gave myself until I turned 25 to make it. And if it didn't happen, I thought I'd just try to find a nice husband.
Katy Perry

I had to act in a school play when I was about ten years old. I really didn't want to do it. But everyone had to do it so I didn't have a choice. A talent agent came and watched it and later gave me some work. It's funny because I'd always known that I wanted a movie career. I just didn't think that I would be in the movies.
Kristen Stewart

There are a lot of people who really abused sampling and gave it a bad name, by just taking people's entire hit songs and rapping over them. It gave publishers license to get a little greedy.
Beck

Fans made me. The fans gave me a chance, and they made me. Beyond that, my career has been trials and tribulations and ups and downs, so I have to have true fans riding with me.
Puff Daddy

No, I've been singing forever. I started out doing musicals. I think that was part of the reason why they gave me the part, because I sang.
Zooey Deschanel

Liza Minelli

We can't forget what happened on May 4th, 1970, when four students gave up their lives because they had the American constitutional right of peaceful protest. They gave up their lives. And to sing that song in that spot on that anniversary was very emotional for us.
Graham Nash

I talked to members of my family, and did some personal research that didn't really have anything to do with the time and place I was writing about, but that gave me a feeling of the experience of being black in a time and place where it was very difficult to be black.
Octavia Butler

The most significant piece of advice my father gave me early on about acting was, don't get caught acting. Really believe in what you're doing and then commit to it. Even if it feels uncomfortable, even if you feel that you're gonna look like an ass. It's all acting, but find the truth in a moment as opposed to just pretending you have and rather than trying to act your way out of it.
Kiefer Sutherland

Working on my own gave me a chance to take my time and experiment a lot.
Ziggy Marley

It was hell to go through what I went through. I didn't know I had so many friends. Many people gave a damn about my situation. They helped cure me.
Bela Lugosi

Part of Michael's uniqueness, I think, comes from the fact that he worked with music. He had a tape which he gave me with many different compositions, really eclectic. These pieces of music were sources of inspiration.
Madeleine Stowe
