I like being in movies that have a great story. I'm not so interested in being a Hollywood star. It's a job, you know. When you wake up at six in the morning every day for a week, it feels like hard work.

I tell you, I'm really not what you'd call into your basic kink, even though we do live in Hollywood, which is a little bit like living in a box of granola.

My grandfather was running Hillcrest Country Club, and that's where a whole group of Hollywood comedians hung out.

The whole idea of doing the Hollywood thing never even occurred to me. When you grow up on the East coast, Hollywood seems like this fantasy land and you don't think that people can actually make a living there.

It was a few days later I came out to Hollywood for a screen test, and so did a lot of other people. So, I really didn't think I would get it. I was definitely the one that was least likely to get it, because everyone else was an already established star.

I know an awful lot of Hollywood people, who are so self-important, I can't understand it.

I wanted to do another movie that could make us laugh and cry and feel good about the world. I wanted to do something else that could make us smile. This is a time when we need to smile more and Hollywood movies are supposed to do that for people in difficult times.

I live on this nice three acres in Hollywood.

There are thousands of directors in Hollywood.

To be quite honest, I've been very blessed when I've worked with Hollywood. The studios that have purchased my work to be adapted to film have really liked the work and wanted to stay as close as they could to what the book was.

It's so crazy in Hollywood.

Hollywood sold its stars on good looks and personality buildups. We weren't really actresses in a true sense, we were just big names - the products of a good publicity department.

In my mind, I've always been an A-list Hollywood superstar. Y'all just didn't know yet.

The new artists coming through were very materialistic and Hollywood, not so engaged in communication.

How could a New Yorker possibly take something called the Hollywood String Quartet seriously?
