I love trees. Too much concrete in New York. Too many big people. I don`t do well with big, important people...Besides until I start making money I`m strictly McDonald`s. [on why he still lives in Philadelphia].
Terrence Howard
I was doing poorly in a US history class, she explains, "partly, I think, because Hawaii is so isolated from the rest of the country. So my mother took me to Philadelphia and Boston to see the Liberty Bell and other famous sites. I ended up getting an A i...

Initially, I wasn`t offered the part. I was walking up the beach in Willowbridge, the British West Indies on Christmas Eve and saw this guy who I know peripherally. He`s not in the film industry, but in Philadelphia real estate or something like that. He ...

We`re still trying to break records on the twentieth anniversary of Live Aid. I`ve just heard Bob Geldof has put Phil Collins on a jet to Philadelphia. There`s nothing going on there, we just don`t want him around this year. No I`m joking, of course we di...

Someone did this for me when I was young, ... Someone - I don`t know who - started a community garden in the middle of Philadelphia, and that`s where I got the skills I needed to make it in the world. When I came here, Doug King knew how to support me whi...

Soldier Field, the tradition there with the Chicago Bears ... I think those are neat spots. Like going to Philadelphia or New York, those are rabid fans and hostile environments. It takes tough people to go in there and win.
John Fox
Philadelphia is my home. I felt homeless for quite a while. In LA, so much revolves around show business, I never felt it was a very balanced life.
David Morse
People see my current success but don`t realize I`ve worked hard to get where I am. I used to clean garbage off the Philadelphia docks and put a lot of time into developing my music.
Kevin Eubanks
New Year`s Eve, we`re going to be doing a concert with the Philadelphia Orchestra in Symphony Hall. It makes me feel good, because of all the people they could have had, they wanted me! We do have to do a little work with the rhythm section.
