At this point I can't say what network would be picking it up but I know that it would be a success.

I had come to the point when I realized it was unlikely that my film career was going to move beyond a certain level of role. And I was - because I had graphic instances of it - handicapped by the success of Star Trek. A director would say 'I don't want Jean-Luc Picard in my movie' - and this was compounded by X-Men as well.

There are so few women in general who aren't completely threatened and confused by other women's success. It's very disappointing.

I've had a lot of success over the years racing in New York but the main point is that I feel the marathon is a different event a lot more my event.

I don't think success arrives and you're suddenly happy. It's not like that. If people think that they'll be very disappointed.

The Occupy movement needs an organizing principle and - just as the Tea Party did - it needs some actual measures of success. Choose one candidate whose agenda is squarely within that of the movement and make his or her electoral success a focal point.

Which is - you know like check it out I'm pretty young I'm only about 40 years old. I still have maybe another four decades of work left in me. And it's exceedingly likely that anything I write from this point forward is going to be judged by the world as the work that came after the freakish success of my last book right?

If there is any one secret of success it lies in the ability to get the other person's point of view and see things from that person's angle as well as from your own.

Definiteness of purpose is the starting point of all achievement.

The starting point of all achievement is desire.
