New Yorkers only cross water for visual culture if the water is an ocean. The East River throws us for a huge loop. If we started going to Queens and the Bronx for visual culture, many of our rent, space, and crowding problems would be over indefinitely.
Jerry Saltz

Fergie

Positive, Experience, Girl

I remember at 16 years old, growing up in Queens, we were punks, but hey, when we went to the theater, we wore a shirt and tie!

Otherwise, there's no reason to get out of your bed!
James Caan

Remember, Old, Keep

I wanted the feel in these books to be like an epic fantasy, with kings, queens, dukes and court politics, but of course like what I was explaining before, about making the science make sense, you have to make the politics make sense, too.
Kevin J. Anderson

Politics, Science, Before

Thomas Malory

Good, Together, Enough

Rose McGowan

Love, Amazing, Learned

Debi Mazar

Husband, Thought, Genius

There's definitely a luxury to the fluidity of not being a mega-star. I've done a ton of really, really odd, off-the-wall movies.

Lizzy Caplan

Movies, Done, Country
