funny zero size
I don't understand the sizes anymore. There's a size zero, which I didn't even know that they had. It must stand for: 'Ohhh my God, you're thin.'
home animal pet
I cannot imagine not going home to animals. They are the closest thing to God; they don't harbor resentment. I wanted to be a vet when I grew up.
spiritual thinking ass
I see those picketers, and I think you know, if I weren't a loving, non-violent, spiritual person, I would really go over there and grab those signs and smash them over their heads and shove them up their asses. But...I'm a loving, spiritual person.
procrastination talking lunch
We went to lunch and were talking about procrastination and the waitress overheard us and she said, 'I have a problem with procrastination, too.' I said 'Really?... Get my sandwich.'
kindness compassion be-kind
I'm going to be kind, because then it all just kind of spreads, and the world is a little nicer out there.
moving procrastination way
Procrastination isn't the problem. It's the solution. It's the universe's way of saying stop, slow down, you move too fast.
assuming never-assume should
You should never assume. You know what happens when you assume. You make an ass out of you and me because that's how it's spelled.
weekend world married
Something big happened over the weekend. Something that affects everybody, all over the world. George Clooney got married.
jesus stars believe
I look at anything in nature and how things work-the stars, the pyramids-and I can't imagine that there's not some kind of design to it all. There's got to be something big that we don't understand. I do believe in Jesus. I believe in being good to one another. Life is about spending our time here contributing and not taking away. That's my faith.
thinking careers soul
I think what saved me is me being honest. I think I somewhow had the courage to do something and say something that I knew would possibly end my career. Instead of making business more important I made my soul and my life more important. And I think by being truthful, and being honest, that saved me.
awards people honor
It's such an honor to receive the Mark Twain Prize. To get the same award that has been given to people like Bill Cosby, Tina Fey and Will Ferrell, it really makes me wonder… why didn't I get this sooner?
beautiful mean boys
I'm not going to say who looks the most beautiful, but it's clear. It's Jared Leto. I mean, he's the prettiest. Boy is he pretty
mind trying finding-happiness
We're just trying to find happiness in the bodies and minds we were given, like everyone else.
thank-you gratitude hurt
Gratitude is looking on the brighter side of the life, even if it means hurting your eyes.
