Her parthenogenetic birth from Adam`s body makes Eve his daughter so that the Judeo-Christian tradition rests on a primal father-daughter incest motif
Naomi Goodman
I was a total nerd growing up. I`d rather sit home and read a novel on New Year`s Eve and say, `Wow, I read the whole thing in one night!` That was my idea of a big time.

Initially, I wasn`t offered the part. I was walking up the beach in Willowbridge, the British West Indies on Christmas Eve and saw this guy who I know peripherally. He`s not in the film industry, but in Philadelphia real estate or something like that. He ...

Really, as long as they`re supportive of the movie and the way I want to make it, the difference between it being a studio or not isn`t that great. It`s more secure with a studio, but you can also get caught up in more red tape. Suddenly they have to clea...
Noah Baumbach
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 remember her as gracious and beautiful. She had stature, but it didn`t make her inaccessible. She wasn`t somebody you`d poke and tell a dirty joke to, but she gave off a real feeling of warmth.--actress Eve Plumb, who costarred with Garson in the 1978 T...
Greer Garson
[On drugs]: No, I`ve never done anything. At least, not to my knowledge. I once took a bunch of goofballs by accident. They looked like candy. They were in a little bowl at a party. I grabbed a hand full and went to town. That was some New Years Eve. I di...
Ernest Borgnine
It made me consider time differently, because my year ends when the year ends. I blame my birth date for being hung up about time.- On his New Year`s Eve birthday.
Val Kilmer
[on Joseph L. Mankiewicz] "Letter to Three Wives" and "All About Eve" were marvelous films. I thought that the last good film he made was "Five Fingers," because personally I have not seen a Mankiewicz film that appeared to be well-directed since then. Fo...

[On her character in All About Eve (1950)]: "Margo Channing was not a bitch. She was an actress who was getting older and was not too happy about it. And why should she? Anyone who says that life begins at 40 is full of it. As people get older their bodie...
Bette Davis
Making a film is so hard that if you don`t have your main actors going along with the ride with the rest of the crew it can make your life very difficult. Particularly within the Hollywood machine. They`ve allowed more stars to take over and it can make e...
Alan Parker
You can still cut loose and have a great time, but part of you has to say, "I will take life with open eyes and a thinking mind, and not as self-centered as I was as a child". When you start looking at life that way you realize that issues on every level ...
Amy Grant
When you`re touring, it`s wonderful because you`re always on the move. But anybody that`s single recognises that the hard part is when the work`s over - Sundays, Christmas holidays, New Year`s Eve - when everybody goes home. That`s when you go, `Oh, that`...
Keith Urban
People don`t realize how physically demanding the role is. I`m still amazed how many people ask me to this day if I did my own stunts. I tell them if I did or Sean did or Pierce did then we would have been physically dead by the end of the first reel of e...

About her second husband: "Six weeks into the marriage, on New Year`s Eve 1959, I wanted to go dancing with him at a nightclub. He said he`d rather get drunk with his brothers." (LA Times 3-11-06)

Being in the nude isn`t a disgrace unless you`re being promiscuous about it. After all, when God created Adam and Eve, they were stark naked. And in the Garden of Eden, God was probably naked as a jaybird too!

With our knowledge of modern-day genetics, we realize that it was possible for God to place the potential for all people throughout history into the genes of Adam and Eve when He created them.

Willie Mays is an American icon and he is obviously one of the most recognizable figures with Negro League baseball. To have someone of his stature and to take his time to come, helps to legitimize the event and show how important it is to recognize the e...

We`ve always been able to get consistent work habits out of our kids. Not just during the year, but during the off-season. To accomplish something like this, you have to be very consistent game in, game out. And we`ve developed that by working hard each a...

This is a nice family New Year`s Eveevent, as opposed to some of the other more edgy celebrations. This also is one of the few public participation torchlight parades. Most resorts use staff, but we don`t have that many staffers, so we allow the public t...

The trap is man`s armored character structure and there`s only one way out of it. It`s not drugs and it`s not religion and it`s not politics. It`s going back to the old apple tree and trying to do better than Adam and Eve did.
Orson Bean
The polarization and animosity were far deeper on the eve of the Civil War than it`s ever been. The `red state-blue state` divisions of today [referring to the 2000 presidential election where maps denoted in blue states that backed Democrat Al Gore and i...
