“I grew up in a community where it was not the exception to be a good girl. It was sort of expected. And all of my friends were good girls too, and my boyfriends were good boys. Everybody was pretty nice. And that affects how I write my characters. There aren't very many bad guys in my novels.” WritingCharacterGuyGirlCommunityBoysNovelNiceGrewGrew UpMy FriendsExpectedExceptionBad GuysMy BoyfriendGood GirlGood Boy Author:Stephenie Meyer
“I am fairly embraced by the Hollywood community, and I love making movies and I love acting, but I'm not real crazy about the Hollywood system. So the fact that they embrace me is a shock to me because I tell them to kiss my ass all the time. I don't understand why they haven't thrown me out on my ear. The other thing is I don't participate much. I have very few friends within the movie community. I hang out with some guys I've known forever. They're all broke and eat me out of house and home. But I stay home mostly and I don't go to the parties. Maybe that preserves me.” RealFactsHomeGuyHouseCommunityPartyActingKnownForeverCrazyHavensKissingHollywoodEarsEmbraceAssBrokePreservesShockThrownHanging OutLove MakingFew FriendsHouse And HomeKiss My Ass Author:Billy Bob Thornton
“My mothers dad dropped out of the eighth grade to work. He had to. By the time he was 30, he was a master electrician, plumber, carpenter, mason, mechanic. That guy was, to me, a magician.

“I'll tell you...why Wonder Woman worked. Or Bionic Woman. Or any of those [shows] really. It was because it wasn't about brawn...it was about brains. And yes, she happened to be beautiful, she happened to be kind of extraordinary in some way, but she wasn't a guy. And I think that, [now], they...put out a female hero, and all they are doing is changing the costume from a man to a woman...they're not showcasing any of the tremendous dichotomies than women possess in term of softness and toughness, sweetness and grit, inner and outer strength.” ThinkingMenWayKindShowsRealityBeautifulGuyTermCommunityLeadershipBrainWonderHistoryGenerationsHappenedFashionHuman NatureHeroFemaleStrategyExtraordinaryIndividualityIdeologyBe KindSweetnessCostumesGritToughnessSoftnessDichotomyWonder WomanBionics Author:Lynda Carter
“America is just so weird in what they think is right and wrong. Like, I was watching 'Breaking Bad' the other day, and they were cooking meth. I could literally cook meth because of that show. It's a how-to. And then they bleeped out the word 'f__k'. And I'm like, really? They killed a guy, and disintegrated his body in acid, but you're not allowed to say 'f__k'? It's like when they bleeped 'molly' at the VMAs. Look what I'm doing up here right now, and you're going to bleep out 'molly'?” ThinkingLooksShowsWisdomBodyRealityAmericaGuyPoliticsCommunityLeadershipJusticeDemocracyComedyGenerationsHuman NaturePolicyRight NowEthicsCookingStrategyHuman RightsIndividualitySocial MediaIdeologyCooksFree SpeechCivilityAcidPartisanship Author:Miley Cyrus
