The first time I got the script, it said The Amanda Show" (1999) on it. I thought they were kidding. I`m still little Amanda, and to be getting my own show, it`s like, oh, my gosh!" - at age 13Amanda Bynes
I lost my father when I was 13-years-old. He was a great man, my father, and very intelligent. I love him very much. I believe it`s very important that parents have a personal connection with their children. It helps kids feel more secure, have a feeling ...

All the photos I`ve taken have been tasteful. If you show a lot of skin when you`re 13, when you`re older, when you`re 16 or 21, what do you have left to show?
Joanna Levesque
When R-rated comedies don`t work, the studios are really embarrassed by them. But a PG-13 comedy is actually less offensive than an episode of "Friends" (1994). I think people want something a little more adult.
Judd Apatow
[Time magazine, 10/13/97] You shouldn`t speak until you know what you`re talking about. That`s why I get uncomfortable with interviews. Reporters ask me what I feel China should do about Tibet. Who cares what I think China should do? I`m a f---ing actor! ...
Brad Pitt
On dealing with the resulting media attention of Empire of the Sun (1987) at age 13: "It was horrific. I was almost crying in interviews and running away during press conferences, pretending I was going to the bathroom and just disappearing."
Christian Bale
There is something inherently tough about Americans. They will not accept defeat. The astronauts of Apollo 13 (1995) would not give up, John Nash in A Beautiful Mind (2001) would not give up, and Jim Braddock would not surrender to poverty.
Ron Howard
[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
[On preparing for his role in Apollo 13 (1995)] Ron [Howard] called me up and said, "we`re going up on this zero-G airplane and we, uh - for research. You don`t have to go. You don`t have to go. Absolutely no pressure. If you don`t want to go, you don`t h...
Kevin Bacon
On her role in Taxi Driver (1976), when she was 13: "I spent four hours with a shrink trying to prove I was normal enough to play a hooker. Does that make sense?"
Jodie Foster
I learned years ago, I adore acting and I think it`s the most alive I know how to be -- almost -- but I really want a good life. I`ve been married for 17 years -- I know, they call us the last couple. I have a 13-year-old daughter. I have a lovely home li...
Kathleen Turner
Young women say I helped them come out of their shells, and 13 rock groups have written songs about me. One song has these lyrics all the way through, `I love Bettie Page. I love Bettie Page. I love Bettie Page.` (LA Times 3-11-06)
Bettie Page
When I was really young I used to lie a lot. Now I get paid to do it. I find sides I don`t get to explore in real life. Like, I had to do a sex scene before I had sex. I was 13, 14, and it was my first love experience with 25 people in front of me. Acting...
Diego Luna
I lived in Hollywood and, ironically, I didn`t know you could just go out and get an agent and go on auditions and try and become an actor, I thought it was like a Masonic thing, like a blood line you had to belong to - until I was 13. Then I realised wha...
Leonardo DiCaprio
It was such a fabulous role that I can`t be at all surprised, let alone upset, that people still mention it. We were very lucky to have 13 episodes in which to dramatize Evelyn Waugh`s novel, and one reason for the series` impact is a combination of time,...
Anthony Andrews
The kindest compliments I have ever heard are when cops tell me Training Day (2001) and Assault on Precinct 13 (2005) inspired them to become cops. The funniest compliments I have ever heard are when people tell me that `I love your band Sugar Ray`.
Ethan Hawke
[On the failure of his experimental educational/variety show, "Cos" (1976)] My first series ["I Spy" (1965)] ran three years, my second ["The Bill Cosby Show" (1969)] ran two years and my third ["The New Bill Cosby Show" (1972)] ran one. This show, if I`m...
Bill Cosby
[about Lauren Hutton, in "Style Makeover", Volume 13, Number 9, Fall 2006] Women shine when they are at their most natural, and Lauren Hutton has a certain timelessness I admire. She knows what works for her.
Elizabeth Berkley
I aspire to be Jack Nicholson. I love his every single mannerism. I used to try and be him in virtually everything I did, I don`t know why. I watched One Flew Over the Cuckoo`s Nest when I was about 13, and I dressed like him. I tried to do his accent. I ...
Robert Pattinson
I felt lower then than I did when I was 13 years old, I remember getting out of the limo with Toni and Christian Bale and walking towards all these photographers, and they were going, `Hey! Toni! Look over here! Hey, Christian, here!` And I just walked on...
Jonathan Rhys Meyers
About her biggest fashion disaster: When I was 13, I was really into Madonna. I`d wear leggings, short skirts, big blouses, big belts, a pearl choker, big earings, bracelets - I was a mess. I thought I was a mini Madonna. (2007)
Parminder Nagra
I think all women are beautiful and attractive - very precious. I think everyone on this earth is beautiful. You can find beauty in everything. I try to look at life that way. (Gaywired.com interview, 06.13.05)
LaToya Jackson
My advantage is that I know the system. Big budgets don`t impress me. They might`ve done when I was 13, but I`ve been working since I was 6.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
[about his "Buffy" and "Angel" TV shows] "Redemption is something you have to fight for in a very personal, down-dirty way. Some of our characters lose that, some stray from that, and some regain it." (May 13, 2004)
Joss Whedon
In explaining why he founded Stage 13 Theater Company with his lesser known but very talented good friends: "When you have a foot up on the glacier, you have to turn around and give the others a hand."
Dan Fogler
As a child my hair was naturally red, but since I was 13 my hair turned light blonde naturally. It`s really strange but it happened. Ever since Chase through the night, the directors made me dye my hair red, as they all thought it suited me at the time. E...
Nicole Kidman
Because we were a kid act, we traveled at half-fare, despite the fact that we were all around 20. Minnie insisted we were 13. "That kid of yours is in the dining car smoking a cigar", the conductor told her. A"And another one is in the washroom shaving". ...
