The first mistake in public business is the going into it.

John Candy knew he was going to die. He told me on his 40th birthday. He said well Maureen I'm on borrowed time.

The Queen of Crafts herself Martha Stewart and I have the same birthday. I prefer to think it's the glue-gun wielding perfect-tart-producing Martha and not the copper pan-throwing jail-going Martha. But I suppose if I am going to share a calendar square with some of Martha I have to share it with all of Martha.

You always get a special kick on opening day no matter how many you go through. You look forward to it like a birthday party when you're a kid. You think something wonderful is going to happen.

Mum loves me being famous! She is so excited and proud as she had me so young and couldn't support me so I am living her dream it's sweeter for both of us. It's her 40th birthday soon and I'm going to buy her 40 presents.

I'm amazed. When I was 40 I thought I'd never make 50. And at 50 I thought the frosting on the cake would be 60. At 60 I was still going strong and enjoying everything.

I binge when I'm happy. When everything is going really well every day is like I'm at a birthday party.

I'm either going to go completely mental completely bankrupt or have the best success of my life.

For me the best times are always going to be the most intense the ones with the highest highs and the lowest lows.

Going online and asking questions is the best way to learn.

It's human nature to gripe but I'm going ahead and doing the best I can.

Blessed are they who have the gift of making friends for it is one of God's best gifts. It involves many things but above all the power of going out of one's self and appreciating whatever is noble and loving in another.

If a man is dumb someone is going to get the best of him so why not you? If you don't you're as dumb as he is.

Activist government overreach and ongoing economic stagnation have shown us why Washington should not try to displace what is best left to civil society.

Every piece of entertainment is made with the idea that 'This is going to be terrific' and 'This is the best thing I've ever done' and then it hits the public and then the public tells you whether it's good or bad.

Your best is going to change from moment to moment it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick.

You know it's going to hell when the best rapper out there is white and the best golfer is black.
