Well, the day I got nominated, I had jury duty, a D.U.I. case. The morning the nominations were announced, I reported to jury duty as scheduled. That was good; it gave me perspective. If you start feeling too important, it`s always good to go sit in a jur...

[talking about Pleasantville (1998)]: "We were thrilled for just the three nominations we got, but obviously it`s a little sad. I went through so many press junkets with people saying they loved it. And Joan Allen was robbed but she can`t get nominated ev...
Reese Witherspoon
[on Peter Bogdanovich] You`re talking about a man who did something quite extraordinary. He was a film critic. He then went and made "The Last Picture Show," which won a few nominations for the Academy Award. He was very resented for that. Not openly, but...

You know, I respect what Howard Dean has been able to do. It`s good for our party. But I`ve got to tell you this: If money alone decided presidential nominations, Phil Gramm would have been nominated in `96.
Alice McGrew
Well, you know the old line - to be nominated is what it`s all about. I think that I`ve done pretty well - I`ve had about 46, or 47 nominations from my movies, and my films have won about 12 awards in total, so I don`t really have any complaints.
Norman Jewison
We need to consider nominations as thoroughly and carefully as the American people deserve. No one is entitled to a free pass to a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court.
Patrick Leahy
The biggest reward from that record was the enthusiasm everyone had to sing on it. The Grammy nominations and the chart positions are great, but ultimately the way you interact with other musicians is the most important thing to me.
Chris Botti
It`s a total Cinderella story because it`s still gay cowboys. Try that at a pitch meeting. Try predicting to anyone (before the movie`s release) that it would sweep all the nominations. One of the reasons the movie`s surprising everyone is that they put i...

It seems as though there are Members in this body who want to filibuster just about everything we try to do, whether it is stopping judicial nominations, the Energy bill, or this Medicare bill.

I think I`ve done pretty well. I`ve had about 46, or 47 nominations from my movies, and my films have won about 12 awards, so I don`t have any complaints.
Norman Jewison
Having that amount of nominations makes me a little nervous, because you feel that the bar is really high, the expectations are really high, but it also feels great.
Lee Ann Womack
Generally with the Oscars or the Emmys there isn`t much you can do until the nominations are announced. Then you know what kind of year you`re dealing with - what`s been overlooked, what the issues are.
Bruce Vilanch
Bush`s choice of Dick Cheney as his running mate is clear confirmation of the policies he would promote and the nominations he would make to an already closely divided U.S. Supreme Court.
