|
+ The first affirmation I need is really my
own. I don't look beyond that. I don't read
what's written about it. For me the fun is
making the film. |
|
|
|
+ To learn the psychic's life, I spent time
with the real Allison
DuBois. The beauty of Allison is she encourages
people to be skeptical. She just hopes they
can keep an open mind and simply entertain
the idea that anything is possible. |
|
|
|
+ I haven't been to church in thirteen years,
but I'm better prepared for heaven than most
of those that haven't missed a day. |
|
|
|
+ It was only when I realized how actors have
the power to move people that I decided to
pursue acting as a career. |
|
|
|
+ The music that really turns me on is either
running toward God or away from God. Both
recognize the pivot, that God is at the center
of the jaunt. |
|
|
|
+ I don't go into the writing process with
any idea of what's going to come out and I
don't have much control over what does. In
a way, I never really expect them to see the
light of day or certainly to ever get recorded.
I certainly don't sit down to write lyrics
with any desire to reveal anything. It's not
what I'm trying to do. |
|
|
|
+ There's a fine line between the Method actor
and the schizophrenic. |

Chandra quotes |
:::
british/indian singer :::
|
|
|
+ I didn’t know how to manufacture an
opportunity, but I was determined that when
a chance came my way I would be ready. |
|
|
|
+ I don't believe in happy endings, but I
do believe in happy travels, because ultimately,
you die at a very young age, or you live long
enough to watch your friends die. It's a mean
thing, life. |
|
|
|
+ Thank you for the tragedy. I need it for
my art. |
|
|
|
+ Celebrity is death.. celebrity.. that's
the worst thing that can happen to an actor. |
|
|
|
+ I opened the door for a lot of people, and
they just ran through and left me holding
the knob. |
|
|
|
+ There is a certain combination of anarchy
and discipline in the way I work. |
|
|
|
+ With any part you play, there is a certain
amount of yourself in it. There has to be,
otherwise it's just not acting. It's lying. |
|
|
|
+ Music has that power because music is not
like politicians. Music is always there. Politicians
come in every four or five years, lie to the
people, get what they want at that time, and
disappear, but music is there every time.
It can change the world. |
|
|
|
+ A man is a success if he gets up in the
morning and gets to bed at night, and in between
he does what he wants to do. |
|
|
|
+ I took on boxing just to get the stress
out. Plus I chilled out a lot as far as the
drinking and the drugs and all that stuff.
Just chillin' out on that made me see things
a lot clearer and learn to rationalize a lot
more. |
|
|
|
+ Food is life, life is food. If you don't
like my approach you are welcome to go down
to MacDonalds. |
|
|
|
+ Africa ain't just a country that gave us
Bob
Marley. I is seen documenteries about
it, and there is some terrible images that
is been left in me mind. Especially with tribes
women with well droopy swingers. With your
help, we can stop these shocking things happening. |
|
|
|
+ The best that the majority of working contemporary
artists can hope for is a paltry, uneven return
for their creative effort. |
|
|
|
+ Listening to music, someone’s gone
ahead making a wind pattern and you’re
following in the shadow of that pattern and
moving through it. When you’re in the
front singing, you’re the beginning. |
|
|
|
+ Sometimes I think to talk too much about
music almost cheapens it. |
|
|
|
+ My goal in life is to give to the world
what I was lucky to receive.. the ecstasy
of divine union through my music and my dance. |
|
|
|
+ All those rich lists in the Sunday Times
are so far off the mark. I don't know about
anyone else's, but mine definitely is. It
used to go up millions even though I'd just
been sitting around doing nothing. |
|
|
|
+ As an artist I've been saying for a long
time we only have one world. |
|
|
|
+ Record companies, believe me, no matter
what record company you're with, they're going
to try to hype you, because, really, all record
companies are interested in is making money. |
|
|
|
+ People will say what they want to say, and
it's okay. And my life will go on, and I need
to focus on my life. So, do I need to defend
that I’m a decent woman? I sure hope
I don't. I know I am. |
|
|
|
+ Cooking is actually quite aggressive and
controlling and sometimes, yes, there is an
element of force-feeding going on. |
|
|
|
+ Our society is run by insane people for
insane objectives. I think we're being run
by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm
liable to be put away as insane for expressing
that. That's what's insane about it. |
|
|
|
+ I'm not into progression. I'm not into fusion.
I'm not into any of this shit, yeah? I'm just
into doing what we do, you know what I mean,
yeah? |
|
|
|
+ Poor is the man whose pleasures depend on
the permission of another. |
|
|
|
+ My music will go on forever. Maybe it's
a fool say that, but when me know facts me
can say facts. My music will go on forever. |
|
|
|
+ I am not reggae, I am me. I am bigger than
the limits that are put on me. It all has
to do with the individual journey that the
individual is on. |
|
|
|
+ I would have been an athlete, but I had
a lot of childhood illnesses that developed
a solitude and a deepening and fostered "artisticness." |

|
|
+ We decided that we weren't going to burn
brightly and fast; that the main goal was
to become the biggest band in the world -
but to take your time and do it at the right
pace
+ Rock stars have a tendency to die very young
or grow old very slowly. |
|
|
|
+ Success makes so many people hate you. I
wish it wasn't that way. It would be wonderful
to enjoy success without seeing envy in the
eyes of those around you. |
|
|
|
+ O great creator of being grant us one more
hour to perform our art and perfect our lives. |
|
|
|
+ Once you've been really "bad"
in a movie, there's a certain kind of fearlessness
you develop. |
|
|
|
+ I really, really do generally, first and
foremost, make creative decisions based on
what feels right, and anything monetary follows
if it’s good, I believe. |
|
|
|
+ Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out
for a time, but it ain't going away. |
|
|
|
+ Indian cinema has been delivering a certain
aesthetic to its audience very successfully
for years and I can say without any shame
that I love song and dance. I'd hate to see
that disappear and as an artist I am happiest
to put my all into an art form, as you do
with song and dance. |
|
|
|
+ I always look at the fascination of diners
coming through from the dining room into the
kitchen.. you can never get them out because
they're just totally amazed at what's going
on.. sort of the air traffic control of the
kitchens. |
|
|
|
+ People know me for my love of food, but
I have so much more I want to share. |
|
|
|
+ I demand perfection in what I do and I practice
very hard before I give a concert.. sometimes
three to six hours a day. |
|
|
|
+ I'm on TV now. It's my job to be repetitive.
My job. My Job. Repetitiveness is my job. |
|
|
|
+ That's it! You people have stood in my way
long enough. I'm going to clown college! |
|
|
|
+ Solitude never hurt anyone. Emily Dickinson
lived alone, and she wrote some of the most
beautiful poetry the world has ever known..
then went crazy as a loon. |
|
|
|
+ There has to be more life than just what
we see Lisa, everyone needs something to believe
in. |
|
|
|
+ The only time I feel genuinely young is
when I am going out on stage and I can just
forget about the rest of the world. |
|
|
|
+ I was drawn to music that addressed the
spirit, probably because my own needed to
be addressed. |
|
|
|
+ Dancing and singing were always like games
to me. I sang constantly. |
|
|
|
+ One thing I don't feel is separation from
the crowd. I don't feel like we're speaking
from a platform, I feel like we are communicating
on the same level. |
|
|
|
+ I've become more comfortable, knowing that
I can sleep until two and hang out until ten
in the morning and don't have to worry about
losing my job. But I'm not a big star. I'm
not even a twinkle.. I'm just a rumour. |

|
|
+ For whatever reason, God has blessed me
with the ability, put me in a position to
make these leaps and bounds. I'm fulfilling
my part of the bargain, which is to give back
and be a positive influence on others. That's
all you can do; take what you've been given
and spread it around. |
|
|
|
+ You know one of the things about going from
modeling to acting is it's so much more fulfilling.
With modeling, you get your picture taken,
which is great, good for you, you know? But
in acting, you're able to reach in and show
a little bit more of yourself. |
|
|
|
+ On stage you're free. You can say and do
things that if you said and did any place
else, you'd be arrested. |
