Director Clarence Brown once called her "the greatest pantomimist that ever drew breath. She was a natural-born comic; you could turn on a scene with her and she`d go on for five minutes without stopping or repeating herself."

I sold The Brown Bunny camera package because I had organized it so methodically, so precisely, that I couldn`t let anyone touch it, scratch it, or break it up. I just had to get it out of my life. The package was sold to Sage Stallone who`s one of my fav...
Vincent Gallo
[on Sophia Loren] She is as beautiful as an erotic dream. Tall and extremely large bosomed. Tremendously long legs. They go up to her shoulders, practically. Beautiful brown eyes, set in a marvelously vulpine, almost satanic, face.
Richard Burton
I`m not a very popular person. I was pushed to show the unfinished version of Brown Bunny in Cannes, against my judgement. And even though a lot of negative reaction to the film came from not setting up the presentation very well, I still felt responsible...
Vincent Gallo
[on her film debut in The Last Picture Show (1971) and her romance with its director. Peter Bogdanovich] When a film wraps, the actors often like to keep some of their props or wardrobe as mementos. I wanted the heart-shaped locket and brown and white sad...
Cybill Shepherd
[speaking in Washington, DC, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Brown vs. Board of Education ruling that eradicated segregated schooling in America] These people marched and were hit in the face with rocks to get an education, and now we`ve got th...
Bill Cosby
I loved my long brown curls, but most mean girls look like this, don`t they?...The blond thing...it`s the stereotype of a popular mean girl.
Ashley Tisdale
[talking about his character in Jackie Brown]: "This is the great noir hero.If Humphrey Bogart or Robert Mitchum were around today, they`d be playing that role."
Robert Forster
Sammy [Sammy Davis Jr.] was really good friends with Peter Brown. Peter got married to a French girl, Yvette. He had this little ceremony in this church in Beverly Hills. Sammy . . . and Dean Martin were there. Dean Martin fell sound asleep just before Pe...
William Smith
I was walking in the market one time with my mom, and a manager came up because - well now I always straighten my hair, but then I had big brown curly hair and she`s like, `Oh you should be in acting. She seems like she`d be good in doing commercials.` So...
Kristin Herrera
I travel to work on my motorcycle, so it`s jeans, boots and a brown Aero leather jacket that weighs as much as I do. If it were black, it would seem like I`ve got a [Marlon Brando] idea going on, which I don`t.
Hugh Laurie
In my fantasy I was always the savior. I would come to `Peanuts` land and save everybody. Charlie Brown would fall madly in love with me. Peppermint Patty was so jealous.
Alicia Witt
(while filming My Left Foot: The Story of Christy Brown (1989)) I needed - and I still need - to create a particular environment. I need to find the right kind of silence or light or noise. Whatever is necessary - and it is always different. I know it sou...
Daniel Day-Lewis
I can`t talk about myself. I just can`t. I know I`ve influenced people, and I`m proud of that. But as I see it, I really haven`t done anything. I haven`t saved anybody from a burning building. Foxy Brown actually approached me at the start of her career t...
Pam Grier
When asked if people still ask her about her film `Bend It Like Beckham`: Yeah, I met somebody at a party and they were like, "Which one of the two girls were you?" I said, "I was the brown one! (2007)
Parminder Nagra
When I saw him move I was mesmerized. I`ve never seen a performer perform like James Brown and right then and there I knew that that was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.

Michael Jackson
Playing the part of Christy Brown left me with a sense of setting myself on a course, of trying to achieve something that was utterly out of reach.
Daniel Day-Lewis
Her hair is shiny and gleaming as a stallion`s mane, her eyes big and brown as chocolate jawbreakers, her tiny mouth a rosebud of surprise. Packed into her five-foot, four-inch doll`s frame is an intriguing mixture of purloined innocence, succulent sexual...
Genevieve Bujold
I was terribly gawky -- too goofy to become a high-kicking cheerleader -- with stringy brown hair and bad posture. Definitely nobody noticeable! (on her teen years)
Helen Slater
You have to ask who would be the best person to take on [Gordon] Brown in a real political maul and score points. As far as I am concerned there is only one man and that is Ken Clarke.
Anthony Morelli
When you get my age, and like James Brown... You know, you do a little bit and let them do it. `cause they have the wind, the air to keep it going.
