Jane Russell
We raise so much money for hospitals, but it`s not just about that. Anybody can come up with a bunch of money to give to somebody. It`s about going to a hospital and hanging out with the kids and dancing and singing with them or giving underprivileged kid...
Hilary Duff
[MGM] had us working days and nights on end. They`d give us pep-up pills to keep us on our feet long after we were exhausted. Then they`d take us to the studio hospital and knock us cold with sleeping pills... Then after four hours they`d wake us up and g...
Judy Garland
[On the appeal he has to older female fans] I find I`m increasingly lusted after by people beyond pensionable age. I was told of a woman in hospital, diagnosed with high blood pressure, who was told not to watch any more `Pride and Prejudice`. She was 103...

Kim Deal
I would be so happy if I didn`t smoke, for a lot of reasons. I can`t believe that I can`t break the habit. I don`t want to be lying around, dying in Cedar`s Sinai Hospital and thinking that I was as stupid enough, a man who is as petrified of dying as I a...
Jack Nicholson
[on Robert Aldrich] I loved Aldrich. Very saddened by his passing. Richard Jaeckel was a good friend of his. He went to see him on his last stretch in the hospital. He was in a coma much of the time. And Jaeckel asks if there is anything he can get him. A...

Vanessa Marcil
I tell young actors today to join the Merchant Marines for a year, and I tell young women to volunteer in a hospital emergency ward if they can. You get to see different people, cultures, dress - it`s a marvelous education for an actor.

Barbara Boxer
When I sent those scripts, that was the lowest point of my life. We`d just had our second son, and when I went to collect them from hospital, I went to the bank to try and get some money to buy some diapers, the screen showed I`ve got $26 left.
Ang Lee
When I came out of surgery, I was on a respirator and had a tube in my left lung. I spent Christmas and the next thirty days in the hospital.

Well, maybe it`s because of the rumors they had going around, you know, they had some rumors about Dennis Brown was in the hospital and all that. Well, that is all bull!

We were not at all solely relying on [information from] family members. The hospital spokeswoman was on my air live saying that she was told that the miners were coming to her hospital and ... they were alive. We had a local fire chief who was told that 1...
