I get heartbroken flying into L.A. It`s just this feeling of unspecific loss. Can you imagine what the San Fernando Valley was when it was all wheat fields? Can you imagine what John Steinbeck saw?
Edward Norton
On his film Freddy Got Fingered (2001) being nominated for 8 Razzie Awards including Worst Picture and Worst Actor of 2001 (as quoted in The San Diego Union, 2/15/02): "I am very proud and honored to be nominated for these awards. I`ve never won an award ...

[2002 Quote]: I`m originally from San Francisco. I might move there some day. But, I like LA, I have fun in LA. It`s a fun town if you`ve got money in your pocket. It`s a good town.
Sam Rockwell
Last year was certainly a year of record for me. Not long after being offered a place in San Francisco Ballet, which had to be one of the most exciting moments in my life, I was offered a leading role in a movie. It was amazing. In my wildest dreams, I ne...
Amanda Schull
At one point I was doing theater in San Francisco and actually living in the theater. I was broke. I was boxing - working out in a gym - and this trainer got me into the union. He started putting all the guys in his stable into the union. So I started mak...
Fred Ward
[on working with Robert De Niro in "New York, New York"] Sure, a class-A bastard. After the sneak preview in San Francisco, Bobby said to me in the car, "I don`t mind being a bastard, as long as I`m an interesting bastard."
Liza Minnelli
I decided to act when I was in the Air Force. I was going with a stripper in San Antonio, hanging out with some bizarre fringe people - who considered themselves "show people" - including this 250-pound transvestite who designed costumes for strip joints,...

[Recalling her only pleasant memories of Julie (1956)]: "Almost all of Julie was shot on location in Carmel, which is a lovely resort town a little south of San Francisco. My co-star was Louis Jourdan, whom I liked very much. An amiable man, very gentle, ...
Doris Day
I live in San Francisco, I have an apartment in New York, but I`m here all the time. Nobody knows. .. . You can`t stay away. I`m a San Franciscan to the bone.

I had my heart set on becoming an English teacher, but stumbled into acting after meeting a theatrical agent in my dad`s restaurant in San Diego. [June 30, 2003]
Charisma Carpenter
I had a little fantasy that goes like this: I`m getting to be an influential person in San Francisco; what if I and five other powerful guys with cigars got together in a smoke-filled room to decide who would be the next mayor of San Francisco? We`d do it...

It was the funniest thing I`d ever heard. I`d been in Soledad, San Quentin, Folsom, Vacaville, Susanville, Sierra - and here`s a guy asking `Can you act like a convict?` I remember I said `I`ll give it a shot`.
Danny Trejo
[upon accepting his Best Actor Academy Award for Cat Ballou (1965)] I think half of this belongs to a horse somewhere out in the [San Fernando] Valley.
Lee Marvin
You know, this sounds so random, but I would rent out all the rooms in the Madonna Inn - it`s in San Luis Obispo, California - and have one final bash with all my friends and loved ones.
Aaron Ruell
Within a few weeks the organization for the maintenance of international peace and security, established by the San Francisco Charter, will be formally launched through the convocation of the first General Assembly of the United Nations.
Alan Matsui
Why can`t DFW compete like San Francisco does with Oakland, like Miami does with Fort Lauderdale, and like Chicago O`Hare does with Midway?
John Ensign
When the government picked companies and gave them monopoly rights to frequencies in San Francisco and Los Angeles and New York and Chicago, it was picking the winners of the competition; it wasn`t setting the terms of the competition.
Andi Melendez
When the Chinese first came to San Francisco, they were actually welcomed by the mayor and they had special ceremonies for them-again this is when their colony was very small, only a few Chinese.
Iris Chang
When I went to San Diego State (and walked on to the football program), never in my wildest dreams did I ever think that I might be a pro football player and become pretty decent at it. Now, here I am ... I just feel so much joy.
Anthimos Thomopoulos
What, running and gunning for seven games? It doesn`t matter at this point. We played San Antonio well this year. We played well against Phoenix. We don`t care who we play at this point.
Brad Miller
We`re here (in San Antonio) for the rest of the year, but we don`t know where the rest of the home games will be played. For now, we`re trying to find apartments and gain some kind of familiarity and get our schedule set up day-by-day. It`s a process. We`...
Brian Young
We were playing a small club in San Diego and the power had gone out in the building. Eddie had a lighter and kept us lit backstage. We became very good friends and spent a lot of time together including hearing Eddie sing in some of the bands he was in a...
Jack Irons
We were created not to be another school of management. San Diego already has schools of management in business. They do a fine job at what they`re supposed to do, but it isn`t why the industry in San Diego -- and beyond -- wanted us to exist.
