Amber VallettaWe looked at each other. And it occurred to me that despite his faults, which were numerous and spectacular, the reason Iโd liked Boris and felt happy around him from almost the moment Iโd met him was that he was never afraid.

People like Karl Rove liked to keep the racism very covert.

Look we have a black man!'โ Garofalo hypothesized. โLook heโs polling well and won a straw poll!
Janeane GarofaloI knew he was unreliable, but he was fun to be with. He was a childโs ideal companion, full of surprises and happy animal energy. He enjoyed food and drink. He liked to try new things. He brought home coconuts, papayas, mangoes, and urged them on our reluctant conservative selves. On Sundays he liked to discover new places, take us on endless bus or trolley rides to some new park or beach he knew about. He always counseled daring, in whatever situation, the courage to test the unknown, an instruction that was thematically in opposition to my motherโs.

Elliott SmithThat's absolutely true, but one problem with the digital revolution, which may tie into what I said earlier, is that there can be a collapse of quality.

At least there was some quality control

That was when I was a student in the 1960s, and I was in New York, so I learned how to deal with writing, recording sound of other people, performance art - because that was a new territory, and I liked everything that was new and provocative. That interested me more than becoming anything specific.

Such was my elation that I ran inside, put on our ancient cracked record of Aretha Franklin singing Respect and danced all by myself for half an hour in our living room, without inhibition, almost crying with jubilation โ not just about the wood, but because I could live competently some of the time, and because that day I liked myself.

Mikhail BulgakovI was not a very popular kid in high school, and I had this idea that the way that I dressed would change how liked I was. It was that kind of Pygmalion story.

Susan Ann SulleyI felt betrayed and absolutely livid, but my body wasnโt smart enough to know it. It had liked the feel of his hands, wanted more of it, wanted it now. It was almost like there were two of me, one who heartily approved of the mage and one who would have dearly loved to see him dead.

Neil GaimanThe challenge has always been to wrest emotion out of a [doll's] face that we think of as only having one emotion.

They'd seemed to him the sociopaths of the pet world, a species domesticated as an evil necessary for the control of rodents and subsequently fetishized the way unhappy countries fetishize their militaries, saluting the uniforms of killers as cat owners stroke their animals' lovely fur and forgive their claws and fangs. He'd never seen anything in a cat's face but simpering incuriosity and self-interest; you only had to tease one with a mouse-toy to see where it's true heart lay...cats were all about using people
Jonathan FranzenI was cast last minute for Casino Royale. They asked me to fly to Prague. I liked the script very much. I flew to Prague and did a bit of an audition. I was really focused and stressed out. And Daniel Craig was there. He was very, very blonde, like a Steve McQueen. He's moving a lot in real life. He's quite nervous. He was very lovely, very patient, and really connecting with me when we did the screen test.
Eva Green
