“I am still so proud to have been a part of something that introduced theater to so many people who weren't exposed to it before. We took Broadway and put it in peoples' living rooms once a week for two seasons. People still come up to me in the street and say, 'I never went to theater before I saw "Smash.'" That's the greatest compliment.” PeopleHas BeensStillsTwoRoomsSawsWeekStreetsProudSeasonsTheaterCome UpComplimentExposedBroadwayLiving Room Author:Megan Hilty
“My divorce has changed my life. I don’t cry anymore. My bad dreams are starting to go away. I feel stronger, as if all these ordeals have toughened me. When I go out in the street, sometimes women in the neighborhood call to me, congratulating me and shouting ‘Mabrouk!’ – a word once tainted by evil memories, but which I know like to hear again. And shouted by women I don’t even know! I blush, but deep down I’m so proud.” IfsKnowsFeelsSometimesDreamEvilMemoriesStreetsCryChangedProudStrongerStartingDivorceNeighborhoodGoing AwayDeep DownShoutingChanged My LifeOrdealsTaintedBad Dream Book:I Am Nujood, Age 10 and Divorced Source: I Am Nujood, Age 10 and Divorced

“Michael [Douglas] was just leaving the TV series The Streets of San Francisco and he said, 'Dad, let me try it.' I thought, 'Well, if I couldn't make it...' So, I gave it to him and he got the money, the director and the cast. The biggest disappointment for me, I always wanted to play McMurphy. They got a young actor, Jack Nicholson. I thought, 'Oh God. He will be terrible.' Then I saw the picture and, of course, he was great in it! That was my biggest disappointment that turned out to be one of the things I'm most proud of because my son Michael did it. I couldn't do it, but Michael did it.” IfsTryingWellsSaidPlayWantedYoungCoursesActorsSawsStreetsSonTvsProudDadTerribleDirectorsLet MeSeriesLeavingCastsDisappointmentMy SonSan FranciscoTv SeriesYoung ActorsNicholsonMcmurphy Author:Kirk Douglas
“I've learned when to get out. I've never wasted too much time with the wrong person, and that's one thing I'm proud of. The longer you're with the wrong person, you could be completely overlooking or not having the chance to meet the right person. And if it doesn't feel right, it isn't right. How do you know if something feels right? I think the great defining factor for me is whether I want more. When they drive away, do I wish they would turn around at the end of the street and come back? Or am I fine that they're going home?” IfsThinkingKnowsWantFeelsPersonsEndsHomeTurnsWishChanceToo MuchOne ThingStreetsFineProudFactorsI've LearnedDo You KnowDefiningRight PersonFeels RightGoing HomeWrong PersonOverlooking Author:Taylor Swift
