If Shakespeare and Michelangelo were alive today, and if they decided to collaborate on a comic, Shakespeare would write the script and Michelangelo would draw it. How could anybody say that this wouldn't be as worthwhile an artform as anything on earth?

Stan Lee

My mother was not a country girl. She was a Brooklyn girl, born and raised in Flatbush, and then a Long Island girl, who liked shopping, 'a little glitter' in her clothes, and keeping secret the actual color of her hair, which from the day I was born to the day she died, was the 'platinum blonde' of Jean Harlow's.

Tom Junod

Even Michelangelo on his deathbed thought he'd done nothing to ennoble art. He wanted to destroy his work-the Pieta! And this from the greatest artist who ever lived. Of course I am not comparing my work to Michelangelo's. But this eternal dissatisfaction of the artist is what I was talking about.

John Huston

I was raised by my father; I was daddy's girl.

Amber Heard

I was raised by a hard-working single mother, so my first role model was a woman. My only caretaker was a woman, and I have three sisters, so my community was girls. I have two girls, and my dog is a girl. My dead dog was a girl. I don't know. I guess I've always keyed in on that perspective.

Louis C. K.

With a stroke of love on the canvas of my soul I'm painting a perfect world with shades of Michelangelo With each promise made in every heart that knows we can live in a perfect world in shades of Michelangelo I hear songs of children echo in the sky I hear songs of children a tomorrow so bright!

Belinda Carlisle

I'm a girl from the South, so I was raised with morals - you know, your family's first.

Adrienne C. Moore

I was born in New York and raised in South Florida, so I'm an East Coast girl.

Cassie Scerbo

I was raised by a family that there was no, 'You're a girl so you have a limited number of options.' In my community, that was never anything that happened.

Cam

Personally I have always liked boys, but if it's a girl, marvelous, because I was raised among women.

Paz Vega

I sensed only an instant of apprehension. She never raised an eyebrow at the question.. Such a brave girl.

Tite Kubo

I was born and raised in L.A. I'm a L.A. girl. I love the quietness of L.A. and that you can just keep your head down and work.

Jennifer Meyer

I'd had a relationship with a French girl, a Japanese girl, an American girl, a Filippina and she was there all the time - a Lancashire girl. I thought: 'It's a Lancashire girl I was looking for. Why didn't I realize it?'
