For Catholics before Vatican II, the land of the free was pre-eminently the land of Sister Says-except, of course, for Sister, for whom it was the land of Father Says.

[on winning the Oscar despite low pre-award expectations] "Vegas had me at 12-to-1 odds. I sure do wish I had bet on myself and made a little money."
Marcia Gay Harden
I think Dexter is a man who, a part of himself is very much frozen, or arrested in a place that is pre-memory, pre-conscious, pre-verbal. Something very traumatic happened to him, he doesn`t know what that is. And I think on some level he wants to know. H...

You did something that was pretty good, and the picture was pretty good. That pedigreed you in that type of part, which I thought was stupid, and unfair, too. It didn`t give me a chance, but it made casting easier for the studio. Interview with The Associ...
Charles Lane
When we are in pre-production, this is the best job in the world. Working 10 to 7, sitting around and brainstorming with the other writers, making things funnier and writing and rewriting scenes - that`s as fun as it gets. Adding acting on top of all that...
Paul Lieberstein
Children are much more understanding of the suddenness and arbitrariness of death than we are. The old fairy tales contain a lot of that, and we`ve stolen from them, just as they stole from Greek myth, which has that same mixture of pre-Christian chaos.
Emma Thompson
From a very early age, I remember thinking that adults were always acting like assholes. I couldn`t understand why I had to respect them. My pre-school teacher forced me to write right-handed when I was left-handed. I didn`t get why I had to change. Nobod...
Jessica Alba
[about living at the Playboy mansion] Actually, it was for medicinal purposes - I was just getting divorced. This doctor wrote me a prescription to live there because he thought it would help me get over the pain of my divorce. My God, it worked. I got ov...
James Caan
[His words to Michael McSweeney when he gave his independent CD in his pre-stardom days]: "If you and your wife like it, great. If you don`t, it`ll make a great coaster."
Michael Buble
I like pre-production and post the best. I don`t like shooting at all. I find it grueling and tough, but I love post and the whole process of seeing the film finally come together. You start ironing out all the rough spots, and the really bad bits you jus...
Martin Campbell
(On his most memorable pre-acting job) For a summer I was a busboy and waiter at a place in New York called Cafe Central, which was a hip, trendy restaurant in 1985. First I bused tables and was really bad at it. I`m clumsy at carrying plates and glasses....
Ben Stiller
[On recording "Secret Love" for the movie Calamity Jane (1953)]: When I first heard "Secret Love" I almost fainted, it was so beautiful. When we finally got around to doing the pre-recording, Ray Heindorf, the musical director at Warner`s, said he`d get t...
Doris Day
(re: The Diary of Anne Frank) "We did [a pre-Broadway run] in Boston and I was hit by a car. So, I missed the opening and the couple of months of the show in New York. No one has said `Break a leg` to me ever since."
Rachel Miner
You get three hours` sleep and then you start all over again. Relentless. Pre-production was almost harder than filming. I was all over the city every day. It was really exhausting.
Ed Harris
When you look at where the Democratic field is going relative to foreign policy, they are increasingly moving away from a policy of pre-emptive self-defense that the president has adopted since September 11.
Ed Gillespie
When I was in pre-production for Trees Lounge, I was hearing the cinematographer talking with the production designer about colours and this and that, and feeling like I was losing control.
Steve Buscemi
Well, my aspirations certainly were not to be in a pre-school show. I mean, it`s certainly nothing that I considered; it`s nothing I ever thought anyone would ever let me do.
Steve Burns
We`ve said all along that federal law requires provisional ballots and the statute was crystal clear on that. This certainly calls into question whether the DOJ is gong to pre-approve the secretary of state`s voter manual.
Barbara Sizemore
This study demonstrates that the pre-20th century atmosphere was essentially devoid of the long-lived gases currently depleting stratospheric ozone. It underscores the human contribution to these gases in the atmosphere and the need for compliance with cu...
James Butler
This is the first time in three years we`ve been able to take in any pasture cattle and we are just starting a rebuilding phase with our cows. We`re recovering from the drought, and we are not back to where we were pre-drought.
Bruce Davis
This is crazy, ... This is a rule that was designed before the world changed, pre-9/11. You can`t stand on bureaucracy if we`re going to protect and save lives, and that`s what these teams do.
Phil Gordon
This is becoming the pre-eminent issue of labor negotiations. Sikorsky is certainly making good money, and if they want good workers they will have to pay good benefits.

This is a win for the 4-year-olds who require pre-K, the low-wealth counties that need assistance with school construction and the disadvantaged students trying to go to college,

This is a significant win for us and it cements our position as a pre-eminent supplier of property management services in the public sector. Transit has placed its trust in us and we are delighted to be working in partnership with them
