My dad was a journalist. He was in Rwanda right after the genocide. In Berlin when the wall came down. He was always disappearing and coming back with amazing stories. So telling stories for a living made sense to me.

My family has been amazing and they understand how blessed I am. They've been able to keep my sense of humor.

I think Damien Hirst is hilarious. And I think he's a true artist. He's not hilarious first I think he is a real artist and I also think he's got an amazing sense of humor.

My parents armed me with an amazing sense of humor and it's what you need when well it's what anyone needs in this world.

I think it's very empowering to be able to have a career and to be a mother. It gives you an amazing sense of self.

As a kid who wasn't into sports at school I felt almost alienated at times whereas in the theatre community there was this amazing sense of camaraderie. Early on we would go to rehearsals with my dad and I was like the mascot for the backstage crew. That was a big part of my childhood so I dreamed of one day doing a play in London.

I'm lucky that my real-life Mom has both a great sense of humor about herself and an amazing ability to slip into complete denial if the subject matter gets a little too close to home.

Back in the days when the market was a kind of secular god and all the world thrilled to behold the amazing powers of private capital the idea of privatizing highways and airports and other bits of our transportation infrastructure made a certain kind of sense.

Texas women have an amazing sense of purpose when they lose it. They're the best girls in the world - they're loyal and fun but when they get mad they'll try to kill you.

When the shriveled skin of the ordinary is stuffed out with meaning it satisfies the senses amazingly.
