The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people thi...
Charles R. Swindoll
(on Star Wars) - "I understood the impact of those movies because I had young children who watched them religiously. I saw the Star Wars films so often in my house that I ended up knowing all of the other actors lines."
Harrison Ford
As an African American actress there are people who have been staples in my life that opened a door that I can walk through. I hope that I can have that impact.
Monique Coleman
I tell you, in films, one doesn`t really meet the audience. You don`t get the impact or spirit of your audience, whereas when you are out in the public, you do.`
Cary Grant
I wasn`t a "Star Trek" (1966) fan, yet I knew who all the characters were. That goes to show what an impact the show had--not just in entertainment but in life. I knew who Chekhov was and I knew who Kirk and Spock were, although I probably had never seen ...
Marina Sirtis
When I see actors talking about world peace, it makes my sphincter weak. There is a difference between Emma Thompson talking about a world catastrophe and - God! - Demi Moore talking about it. Goldie Hawn talking about the elephants has a different impact...
Richard E. Grant
America is certainly starting to look outward at last. The impact of its actions and the world`s attitude towards them is being thrown in its face. My film is only based on what I`ve torn from the newspaper headlines. It`s just that maybe I read more clos...
Andrew Niccol
You can do health stories, you can do fitness stories - that stuff will impact on your health. But people go through every single day not worrying about what size they are. (Journal National Examiner)
Star Jones
With music I get to feel real ownership with what I do. I write it, I perform it and even if it is crap, it is mine. With acting, you are a small part of the creative process, and sometimes it is hard to feel like you are making an impact.
John Cho
[On the impact of The Godfather (1972)] "I`d gotten to know quite a few mafiosi, and all of them told me they loved the picture because I had played the Godfather with dignity. Even today I can`t pay a check in Little Italy."
Marlon Brando
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
I can`t point anything specific out, but I`m a big David Lynch fan, he`s a big influence on Saw, and another director I truly admire as well, is an Italian, Dario Argento? These two guys have a big impact on us, Deep Red, Lost Highway.
James Wan
There is nothing wrong with horror films. Their existence has definitely had an impact on me. It is important to have scary demons in our world on film. We have them in the world. That is why we are afraid, it is nice to have a visual and to have a confro...
Brad Dourif
I have to accept the fact that these films have had a fantastic effect on people, and to deny that doesn`t make any sense until I do something that has the same cultural and social impact of those movies. That`s just the way it is.
Molly Ringwald
As a performer, much of my life has been spent in the spotlight. I know how important appearance can be to teens, especially the impact it can have on the way you feel about yourself.
Christy Romano
[on John Wayne] His image had as much impact in the world as many of our presidents have had, but Duke was a great actor, a great humanitarian, but always himself. To be a friend was a lifetime thing.
Elizabeth Taylor
I am definitely not a fashionista. I can`t live up to that title, I don`t want to. Also, I think fashion can have a very negative impact on young people who feel they have to be thin. A lot of young actresses are really unhealthy. It didn`t happen to me w...
Kristin Davis
Here am I. I`m 38. My career`s probably never been better. And I`ve made a decision which may or may not impact on it - I refuse to hide my experience and my age, as if it`s something I should be ashamed of. I`m alive. I know lots of people who`ve never b...
Shirley Manson
Everything starts in the writing, and getting more and more women`s perspective in the writing will have a huge impact on the quality of films we get. At the moment, we don`t really see women as we see ourselves and as we really are because it`s only men ...
Naomie Harris
[about her role as the lesbian Tara on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer":] "I got letters from girls saying that I changed their lives and I met people who would cry about it, and that had such an impact on me. You don`t realise what an impact television has on ...
Amber Benson

Amber Benson
Maria had such an impact on me that I didn`t want to do something so light. I wanted to do something with power. Anyone can be a beautiful girl. Any girl can be that. So I didn`t do anything for three years. I was waiting for the right roles.
Catalina Moreno
When I was doing press for Deep Impact (1998), reporters would always ask me how it felt to play the first black president, and I`d tell them, `I`m not playing the first black president. I`m playing a president who happens to be black.` Or they`d ask me w...
Morgan Freeman
The person who`s had the most impact on acting since Marlon Brando, the only person who`s really changed acting, is Julia Roberts. I call it the Julia Roberts School of Acting. It`s an excess of competence. She`s got all these imitators, and they just bas...
Ethan Hawke
I kind of stopped the impact with my face. - on being knocked unconscious by a pane of plexiglass during a 22 October 1997 New York Rangers-Chicago Blackhawks game.
Janet Jones
We`re yet to make inroads into the West and the way Chinese cinema is made. I mean, long before Ang Lee`s `Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon`, Bruce Lee had made an impact on the Western audience with his `Enter The Dragon`. Indian cinema is yet to make that ...
Irfan Khan
People that are really very weird can get into sensitive positions and have a tremendous impact on history.
