“Lord Of The Rings fandom was massive, worldwide, entrenched. Generally it had been part of the fans' life all their life, because they had it read to them as children; they'd become Tolkien students.” ChildrenLordFansStudentsRingsMassiveFandoms Author:John Noble

“I used to watch 'Coming to America' every day after school. I have full-on long-running inside jokes with friends and family about different scenes in that movie alone.

“I had a lot of self-loathing, .. I've been self-sustained since I was 11. I've always been the one making the money, and to be flat on my back and .. so vulnerable and then be completely loved. To have my wife be there, 110% supportive. To have my children say, 'It's OK, Mom.' To have the people that I work for say, 'It's OK.' To have my fans go, 'It's all right.' It's like, what was I afraid of? I'm going to get healthy now, and I'm not going to carry that baggage anymore.” PeopleChildrenSelfWifeFansMomHealthyMy WifeVulnerableMy ChildrenFlatsSupportiveLoathingBaggageSelf LoathingMelissa Author:Melissa Etheridge
“I certainly wouldn't compare the rewards of watching one's children grow and mature with that of money piling up at the box office. Both are pleasant, but to varying degrees. As the old saying goes, you can't take an audience home with you. You can't depend on the loyalty of fans, who, after all is said and done, are just faceless people one seldom sees. And few stars have their fans forever. But a child is forever. That bond and relationship is timeless and doesn't depend on your looks, age or popularity at the moment.” PeopleLooksChildrenSaidDoneMomentsHomeAgeStarsGrowsAudienceForeverFansDependsOfficeDegreesRewardsBoxesLoyaltyComparePleasantMaturePopularityTimelessBox OfficeSaid And DoneOld SayingFaceless Author:Julie Andrews
