OBSESSED, p.p. Vexed by an evil spirit, like the Gadarene swine and other critics. Obsession was once more common than it is now. Arasthus tells of a peasant who was occupied by a different devil for every day in the week, and on Sundays by two. They were...
Ambrose Bierce
I ran into a couple of guys who were boxers. They talked me into working out at their gym. I became obsessed with boxing and the idea of becoming a champion. I was hoping to compete in the 1992 Olympics...But I got a lead [acting]. Suddenly I was making m...
Jon Seda
I have nothing in my life besides my work. I am obsessed with it. I leave my house only when I`m forced to. All my life, I have felt that what I did was wrong. But now when I work I feel good about it.
Asia Argento
To me, Devdas is the end of love stories. I`ve portrayed an obsessed lover, a nice lover, an angry lover, a romantic lover. And now I`ve played Devdas. For someone who doesn`t even like love stories, I`ve played an awful lot of lovers. Personally speaking...
Shahrukh Khan
I`d just be obsessed with a movie. I`d need more. So we`d make Super-8s at home. It`s funny I should remake Halloween, because one of the movies I made as a kid in high school was a sequel to [Carpenter`s] Escape from New York. Later, you know, I moved to...
Rob Zombie
(July 2003): "It`s not a prerequisite for an actor to be obsessed about his looks. I know there are people who don`t look in the mirror at all and I`m getting there."
Hrithik Roshan
[Talking about why she will not move to Hollywood to further her film career]: "I could never live there. They are obsessed with youth and beauty even more than us. There is this thing in America where actresses reach 40 and go mad. The film industry want...
Monica Bellucci
But I am interested in the notion that people can become so obsessed by their world that they lose sense and awareness of how they appear to other people. They`re so earnest about it. But that`s true of so many things.
Christopher Guest
Someday I`d like to do some real traveling. I`m obsessed with Brazil and I`ve always had this dream of backpacking through South America.
Kristin Kreuk
Stanley Kubrick was a great artist. I say this all the time and people think I`m being facetious. I`m not. Kubrick was a guy who obsessed over details and did 100 takes, and you know, I don`t feel that way. If I`m shooting a film and it`s 6 o`clock at nig...
Woody Allen
Because I am a bad girl, people always automatically think that I am a bad girl. Or that I carry a dark secret with me or that I`m obsessed with death. The truth is that I am probably the least morbid person one can meet. If I think more about death than ...
Angelina Jolie
No, I don`t get obsessed with acting. Because in the past when I have got obsessed about it, it really got in the way of the creative process. I`ve learned to hang the character on the coat-peg at the end of the day, and when I leave in the morning I pick...
Liam Neeson

Liam Neeson
It`s so reassuring to have a woman heroine who triumphs with more than just what she has on the outside... who has more to offer the world than just a pretty picture. To me, the tragedy about this whole image-obsessed society is that young girls get so ca...
America Ferrera
There are now different subjects coming up for us older women that certainly didn`t before. Of course, sexuality and sensuality have always been forms that film is obsessed with, but it used to be a form for younger women because, well, they were much pre...
Charlotte Rampling
I`m not obsessed with being in the public eye. It`s not my job to impress people - I`m really just a working actress and I like to pick projects and do things that really inspire me.
Alicia Silverstone
On working with Martin Scorsese in Gangs of New York (2002): "He`s a perfectionist, obsessed with detail. That`s why he went over budget and over schedule."
Leonardo DiCaprio
You can choose who you want to be the hero [in Hard Candy], but you`ll be second-guessing yourself -- there`s just no right answer. Our society is obsessed with finding good and finding evil, but I think we`re all capable of anything.
Ellen Page
I`m not a beautiful person and I never have been. My ex Sylvester Stallone was obsessed with my looks. He got my profile carved into the place settings of our crystal dining table. And he commissioned a bronze statue of the two of us in our underwear for ...
