I love thinking about American history, thinking about LA history. I love brooding on crime.
James Ellroy

I mean, I love California, but LA to me is still a strange place.
Scott Speedman

I met Rodney when I first moved to LA, so I'd say 20 years. He's the eternal teenager.
Kathy Valentine

I moved out to LA, got an agent, started auditioning. I didn't know anything about how it worked. And since I was really bad, luckily, I didn't get any of those parts.
Casey Affleck

I moved to LA and decided to do films and television, mainly because the theater in New York is totally dead.
Shirley Knight

I play bad golf for good charities like the LA Police.
Robert Stack

I play- it's kind of like a slice-of-life, LA women in their forties, playing forty kind of what's their friendship like, and what's their life like and so I just play one of the four friends.
Joan Cusack

I rent houses in LA when I'm filming. I find the isolation there terrifying. There's nowhere to go, there's nowhere to be with people. I'm not a beach bunny.
Kathleen Turner

I sing in the car if I'm in LA, because you're like soundproofed.
Jimmy Fallon

I started writing this feature comedy in New York - a Chris Farley vehicle. The script was decent. When I got to LA, I met some new friends in film school and had them read my script and give me notes.
David Steinberg

I think people enjoyed LA Law so much, because it was the first show that delved into current events through the prism of the law.
Harry Hamlin

I tried to start a theatre in LA and failed miserably, but I was probably not meant to raise money.
Beth Henley

I was 16 years old, driving to LA, and sleeping in my car, just trying to make it happen.
Nick Cannon

I was going to buy a van and move to LA so I could secretly pursue acting without any of my friends knowing.
Steve Buscemi

I was hoping for it to be possibly a movie career as I still would like to see that happen. I enjoyed making 200 Motels and did try out for a few things when I lived in LA, but nothing ever happened. I'm still hoping though.
Jimmy Carl Black

I was only in LA for two weeks when I got that job. And I didn't work again for two years.
Nicole Sullivan

I was part of the draft resistance movement in LA where we did demonstrations at the draft centre and burned our cards and made a lot of trouble on campus.
Cheech Marin

I went to national piano competitions and did that whole circuit. Then I played professionally to support myself when I moved out to LA.
Alicia Witt

I work with youth offenders in LA, I've heard them speak and see how music manipulates them.

I would like to be Maria, but there is La Callas who demands that I carry myself with her dignity.
