Function is fundamental to design, of course. If something doesn't work, it's a bad product, and I certainly get frustrated by things that aren't functional. But there has to be more than function. A house has to function, but if that's all it does, you don't love it.

Marcel Wanders

I don't know if you ever say to yourself that you want to be an actress. It eventually becomes a social function - you are an actress and you make a living out of it, but at the beginning it's more a matter of how to survive, or how to exist in a certain way.

Isabelle Huppert

Two of an actress's greatest assets are love and pain. A great actress, even a good actress, must have plenty of both in her life.

Katharine Hepburn

Most of us have no sympathy with the rich idler who spends his life in pleasure without ever doing any work. But even he fulfills a function in the life of the social organism. He sets an example of luxury that awakens in the multitude a consciousness of new needs and gives industry the incentive to fulfill them.

Ludwig von Mises

I proud to say that most of the Iranians love me and love my work. I love them, and I always have them in my mind when I work. There are few people who do not agree with me, but truly, I don't care. I call myself an actress with a mission.

Shohreh Aghdashloo

I'd love to be an award-winning, commercial successful actress! I would love to push myself to the limits as an actress and experiment with playing really interesting women.

Preity Zinta

When I work on sculpture, I don't have to worry about function. When I work on a piece of architecture, I must think about function all the time.

Santiago Calatrava

If you want poor people to work you restore their incentive by giving them less, such as by cutting social services. If you want rich people to work you restore their incentive by giving them more, such as by cutting taxes.

Jim Stanford

I hope I get to work with Ms. Meryl Streep. She's so brilliant, great, and gracious an actress and person. I would love to work with her.

Storm Reid

What is the difference between an actress over 50 and an actress with a disability? Nothing. They both can't find work.

Teri Garr

I'd love to work with Rachel McAdams, because she's a great actress.

Emma Roberts

I think if you work as an actress and are supposed as a character to be in love with some actor, then to some extent you do have to be in love with him.

Dorothy Stratten

I'd love to work with Michelle Williams. I think that she's incredible. She's such a great actress and I love her.

Abigail Breslin

I've never been trained as an actress, so it's all instinct. I just let myself go into this kind of a free fall. Sometimes I feel scared, or out of my element - like everyone else knows what they're doing but me. I don't know . . . Maybe I function well with fear or I like to be faced with a challenge . . . I think I'm just a work in progress.

January Jones

I'm not a particularly ambitious actress. I love to go and do my work, head down in the dirt, and be the character.

Melissa Leo

I mean, any time an actress gets to work with another actress, it’s like, “Oh, there are two of us in a movie! How are you? Let’s sit in the hair chair together!” We’re lonely, women.
