I like to talk about my obsession with french fries because I don't want people to think that 'Let's Move' is about complete utter deprivation. It's about moderation and real-life changes and ideas that really work for families.

What moves those of genius what inspires their work is not new ideas but their obsession with the idea that what has already been said is still not enough.

All women who kill or have sexual obsessions or who are prostitutes have trouble with their fathers.

I don't get this whole super-skinny obsession. I really think women look more beautiful when they let their curves show.

Women have this obsession with shoes.

Why are we as a nation so obsessed with foreign things? Is it a legacy of our colonial years? We want foreign television sets. We want foreign shirts. We want foreign technology. Why this obsession with everything imported?

In all of our society but especially in Hollywood there is an obsession with perfection that can lead to self-loathing and neurosis and all that kind of stuff.

I suppose that is my central obsession. What we owe to society what we owe to ourselves.

'Snow White' is an old fairy tale so obviously the idea of vanity and obsession with youth is long-standing. With today's science people have become crazy with trying to move their face around. It's bizarre.

I think one of the downsides of the sort of obsession with romantic love and personal fulfillment is that the plain fact of the matter is that those feelings don't last for ever and so they better be replaced and reinforced by things that do.
