No one could have been nicer, classier nor better looking than Dick Clark. I’ve had a crush on him since I was a teenager.

O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!

I say, ‚Yeah, Taylor Swift.‘ I think she is a smart, beautiful girl. I think she’s making all the right moves. She’s got a good head on her shoulders. She’s surrounded with wonderful people. Her songs are great. She keeps herself anchored. She knows who she is, and she’s living and standing by that.

You don’t know when you’re being watched. That’s one of the weird things about celebrity. It’s my least favorite part of acting, celebrity.

Lady Gaga is my name. If you know me, and you call me Stefani, you don’t really know me at all.

I say this everywhere I go: I admire and respect Hillary. She has been a lawyer, a law professor, First Lady of Arkansas, First Lady of the United States, a U.S. Senator, Secretary of State.

I say to the paparazzi, ‚Fellas, take your shot and go.‘ It’s just they usually find me on a beach.

If thou art a man, admire those who attempt great things, even though they fail.

You’d be surprised how much it costs to look this cheap!

It is easy to be beautiful; it is difficult to appear so.

I am not handsome or sexy. Of course, it’s not like I am hopeless.

I admire people who dare to take the language, English, and understand it and understand the melody.

Even with cameras being very cheap, one thing that researchers noticed was that you look really bad in a videoconference image because the lighting is bad and you get shadows and things.

I’m easy to look like, so there are lots and lots of Dolly look-alikes.

Ah! yes, I know: those who see me rarely trust my word: I must look too intelligent to keep it.

When I was with Andy Warhol, I thought, ‚God, his wig looks cheaper than mine!‘

It is better to be beautiful than to be good. But… it is better to be good than to be ugly.

I am deeply grateful to the citizens of Sarajevo and the Sarajevo Canton assembly for bestowing upon me this incredible honor of citizenship. I am so proud to now be a part of such an extraordinary part of the world and fellow citizen to the people I deeply love and admire.

I was totally dominated and revered my father. I admired everything he did. He was a great sports person. He loved me. I was his only boy at that time, before my brother Billy came along.

WWE asked me to be in the Hall of Fame, and I turned it down. You know why? They put Pete Rose in the wrestling Hall of Fame. This guy can’t even get into his own Hall of Fame.

Dignity, and even holiness too, sometimes, are more questions of coat and waistcoat than some people imagine.

On a level plain, simple mounds look like hills; and the insipid flatness of our present bourgeoisie is to be measured by the altitude of its great intellects.

I like to make people feel happy and superior in their reaction towards my appearance.

I think the message has already been sent to Hollywood, which is that this kid’s a hard worker, he’s talented, and people are coming out to see him. And when you have box-office results, Hollywood treats you different. Hollywood stands up.

Everybody looks like clones and the only people you notice are my age. I don’t notice anybody unless they look great, and every now and again they do, and they are usually 70.

When I look at acting careers that I really admire, I see that it’s been a precise decision-making process for these people. They make decisions based on what they love, and they do only the things that they are passionate about. They play only characters that they can’t stop thinking about.

If I’m a star, then the people made me a star.

Well, I have great respect for Senator Hirono.

I have no idols. I admire work, dedication and competence.

I use my celebrity status to inspire someone, to give them hope.

There are four ways, and only four ways, in which we have contact with the world. We are evaluated and classified by these four contacts: what we do, how we look, what we say, and how we say it.

Before ever meeting Priyanka Chopra, I had heard her name coming out of Bollywood and was impressed: she was beautiful, talented, had made nearly 50 movies, earned multiple awards – a massive star.

The only difference between Benito and Bad Bunny is 16 million followers on Instagram. And the money that Bad Bunny has in the bank. Benito had, like, $7. The numbers are different, but I’m still the same. Even my insecurities remain the same.

Judgements prevent us from seeing the good that lies beyond appearances.

If cash comes with fame, come fame; if cash comes without fame, come cash.

The scab is a traitor to his God, his mother, and his class.

A great social success is a pretty girl who plays her cards as carefully as if she were plain.

I don’t care if you get up in the morning and don’t wash, don’t put any make-up on, don’t do your hair, even, but you have to have clothes if you want to look different.

I think Pat Robertson is a terrific fellow.

I didn’t like the way I looked in pictures – when I saw myself on a digital camera, I was like, ‚Eesh.‘

First, I want to pay tribute to Diana myself. She was an exceptional and gifted human being. In good times and bad, she never lost her capacity to smile and laugh, nor to inspire others with her warmth and kindness. I admired and respected her – for her energy and commitment to others, and especially for her devotion to her two boys.

It took Simone a long time to understand why people want Daddy’s autograph. I’d tell her, and my wife would tell her, too, ‚People see Daddy in the movies, and they are excited to meet him.‘ But she couldn’t really grasp it.

People have never looked so ugly as they do today. We just consume far too much.

Appearance is something absolute, but reality is not that way – everything is interdependent, not absolute.

I’m odd looking. Sometimes I think I look like a funny muppet.

I try not to go around looking like a hag.

I want to look my best for God. So many people have the attitude that if you’re a Christian you’ve got to dress bad, wear an old color, not do anything to your hair, have nothing. It’s no wonder that Christianity is not very attractive. I mean, how many people do you know in a Western culture that’s going to go, ‚Yeah, give me some of that?‘

Bob Dylan is like an alien on this earth, and I love him! I cried when I saw him play live because I was so close to him.

I don’t pity any man who does hard work worth doing. I admire him. I pity the creature who does not work, at whichever end of the social scale he may regard himself as being.

I love soccer, love tennis… Roger Federer has been a favourite for a long, long time. The kind of consistency he has shown, 16 Grand Slam titles… The way he handles himself in pressure situations is admirable… He is so calm… In soccer, I’m a huge fan of Barcelona… I like watching Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and David Villa.

To tax the community for the advantage of a class is not protection: it is plunder.

Most of the confidence which I appear to feel, especially when influenced by noon wine, is only a pretense.

She got her looks from her father. He’s a plastic surgeon.

Tina Turner is someone that I admire, because she made her strength feminine and sexy. Marilyn Monroe, because she was a curvy woman. I’m drawn to things that have the same kind of silhouettes as what she wore because our bodies are similar.

I do not see myself as a celebrity or an icon or things like that… I have not really done anything.

I love wisdom. And you can never be great at anything unless you love it. Not be in love with it, but love the thing, admire the thing. And it seems that if you love the thing, and you don’t just want to possess it, it will find you.

Archimedes was my ideal. I admired the works of artists, but to my mind, they were only shadows and semblances. The inventor, I thought, gives to the world creations which are palpable, which live and work.

Particularly Instagram, people look like they have a much better life than they really do. People basically seem like they are way better-looking than they really are, and they are way happier-seeming than they really are.

Ever since I started to get recognition I’ve picked out certain fans and reverse-stalked them.

People in Latin America… love America from afar and emulate America in some ways but also hate a lot of things that America does to them.

What a blast it is to be here with Michael Moore.
