They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
I say if you show up at an award ceremony wearing the same dress that I have draped over my voluptuous curves, you better have flame-retardant dainties on ’cause I carry a blowtorch in my clutch.
I have top billing in the film that is my life. And if James Lipton would just pick up the phone and call me to book me on his show, Inside the Actors’ Studio, I’d tell him all about it.

There is no good sentence with “from the beach” in it except “I am calling you from the beach”.
Just like when I think and drive, except not driving and naked.
Long drives allow me to focus on the really important phenomena of life. I think about them a lot, but I never resolve them.
