It`s my conceit that perhaps some diseases perceived as diseases that destroy a well-functioning machine actually turn it into a new but still well-functioning machine with a different purpose. The AIDS virus: look at it from its point of view. Very vital...
David Cronenberg
I am going to cry because this show has been as long as my career! I have wondered for 26 years what this would feel like! Thank you for terminating the suspense. (On accepting her Oscar in 1983]

[On being perceived as "heavy"] I have breasts and hips and I am very happy that they are part of me. I weigh one-hundred eighteen and I am five foot four. If you saw me in real life, you would think I was on the thin side.
Amber Benson
Fame is a fickle mistress. It`s very deceiving. It looks really bitchin` from the outside, and then you get it and it`s very confusing professionally, socially, emotionally. It`s confusing because you`re so worried about how you`re perceived. A lot of my ...
Charlie Sheen
Sure, I suffered a lot. But it`s not like the end of the world and it`s not who I am. I lead quite a pleasant life and I`m able to divorce a perceived reality from my actual experience of life.

Renny Harlin
I have this need to keep country being perceived as a cool genre and a broad genre. I really think that country is a genre as big as rock and roll. I would love to get to the point where someone asks, `What kind of music do you play?` I say, `Country.` An...
Keith Urban
I feel like you have to be who you are and be true to yourself first, always. You can`t worry about how your`re going to be perceived by other people. I have a quote that my mom taught me: `It`s none of my business what other people think of me.`
