You cannot afford to hire an attorney at $200 to $300 an hour to fight over your $12,000 car and have to pay those bills. People need to become aware that they have some rights, even when going up against these giant companies that try to intimidate.
Vince Megna
Stock prices have been quoted in fractions for two centuries, based on a system descended from Spanish pieces of eight. Each dollar was cut into eight bits worth 12.5 cents each.
Charles A. Jaffe
Too many people grow up. That`s the real trouble with the world, too many people grow up. They forget. They don`t remember what it`s like to be 12 years old. They patronize, they treat children as inferiors. Well I won`t do that.
Walt Disney
You don`t think people would go on about my looks if I was No. 500 in the world instead of No.12, do you? Anyway, as I keep telling everyone, you can`t blame me for looking like this on purpose.
Anna Kournikova
[When asked what romantic character he would want to be] [Pablo Picasso]. I love the idea that he used to just sit and stare at an empty canvas for as long as 12 hours straight. If you keep staring at the canvas, the hope is that something or someone will...
Al Pacino
[about being a child star:] "My childhood success came and went real fast. Between 12 and 16, I grew -- as much as I was going to, anyway -- and no longer looked the same. Like most child actors, I found it a difficult adjustment. Still, I`ve done so many...
Seth Green
I had size 12 feet when I was 10, so I thought I was going to be 6` 8. My goal was to be able to dunk a basket. I wound up being 6` 1" with size 14 feet. I got the raw end of the deal."
Bradley Cooper
Up until I was 12 my sisters used to dress me up as a girl and introduce me as `Claudia`! Twelve was a turning point as I moved to a mixed school and then I became cool and discovered hair gel.
Robert Pattinson
[12/29/64] I`ve had lung cancer, the big C. But I`ve beaten the son of a bitch. Maybe I can give some poor bastard a little hope by being honest. I want people to know cancer can be licked. My advisers all told me that the public doesn`t want its movie he...
John Wayne
[on her relationship with Justin Timberlake during the "MMC" (1989)] We were, like, 12 or 13 and it was like, "Hi, do you like me?" It was like puppy love.
Britney Spears
I also care that the public are getting their 12 dollars` worth when they go to a movie, and that they`re not coming out not wanting to ever see a movie with me in it again. I don`t care what people think of me as a person, but I do care what people think...
Sam Worthington
[on winning the Oscar despite low pre-award expectations] "Vegas had me at 12-to-1 odds. I sure do wish I had bet on myself and made a little money."
Marcia Gay Harden
It is funny you know, you spend 12 years of your life learning about things and about life, but they never really tell you how hard life really is.
Amanda Peterson
I always wanted to be a farmer. There is a tradition of that in my family. I`m a bit of a nerd, I wouldn`t mind working in a shop like 12 Tónar selling records, or having a radio show where I could play obscure singles. I would also like to teach music. I...
Bjork Guomundsdottir
I just show up and do the job the very best that I can every day, no matter what the part is. And I`m having a blast. (`Multi-tasking Gorham takes demanding role` by Lynne McNamara, Canada.com, 12 Sep 2003)
Christopher Gorham
On his "Tarzan" action sequences: "The monkey stuff is pretty funny. As Tarzan you can`t really take him too seriously." (From Daily Variety, Sept. 12, 2003)
Travis Fimmel
[quoted in the Orange County Register, 12/22/91] I have never claimed to be Miss Hip and I never tried to appeal to an avant-garde audience with a green streak in my hair, a bag over my head and songs about living couches. Some entertainers lose their way...
Sheena Easton
I wasn`t given a whole lot in my life. I was on the bottom of the class system. But I got wisdom. I never just did what people told me. I questioned everything. When I look back, it is really no surprise that I started working at 12.
Jessica Alba
[2/12/04, on souvenirs from Middle-earth] I got Sam`s backpack, which began to feel like a second skin, albeit a very uncomfortable skin. I also got to keep Sam`s sword, as well as some Hobbit feet and ears. I can take them out and make the whole family s...
Sean Astin
I had a bad early experience when "The Professional" came out. I`m really proud of the film, but it was strange for me to be looked at as a sexual object when I was 12.
Natalie Portman
A smile is so sexy, yet so warm. When someone genuinely smiles at you, it`s the greatest feeling in the world. quoted in Woman`s World (12-6-2005)
Mandy Moore
[on her "Angel" (1999) character Fred:] "Looking back at my character, I`ve gotten to do about 12 different parts because I started out crazy, in a potato sack, in a demon dimension. Now I`m in charge of this multimillion-dollar science lab. The journey b...
Amy Acker
I was called Sean long before I was an actor, I had an Irish buddy when I was 12 named Seamus -- pronounced Shay-mus. So they nicknamed us Seamus and Shawn and it stuck.
Sean Connery
[2/12/04] I don`t care if I`m 5`7" and pretty heavy, weight-wise, in the film [the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy]. I still see myself as Errol Flynn. Even when I was a little boy, playing war games in the back yard, I pictured myself as the hero.
Sean Astin
[interview in Playboy, 12/04] I have Glocks, .45s, Berettas, Remingtons. I like the marksmanship and the discipline that it takes to be a gun owner. I like the machinery. Being able to take it out and clean it is even more fascinating than having the gun.
Bernie Mac
That ad recently turned up in a magazine in Australia. My head is in my hands as I`m sitting at as desk, thinking, `When can I start using tampons?` I was quite old, but I was supposed to look 12. - on one of her first gigs
