I feel like regardless of whether or not I win this award or I win that award or I don't win this award - I'm still Sam at the end of the day. And that's what defines me.

Sam Bradford

You can't eat tomatoes because they're tainted with deadly salmonella. First there was tainted lettuce. Now, tainted tomatoes. Who would have thought that the healthiest part of a B.L.T. would be the bacon?

David Letterman

I wish there was an autotune for acting. That would make everyone win the best acting award immediately.

Shruti Haasan

It was pop culture, entertainment, Hollywood, award shows - these are the things that really captivated me as a kid. I would watch the Oscars and every award show with my parents. I would make lists of who was going to win.

Billy Eichner

I heard I won 'best butt crack' on television recently. It's true. I did it, you guys. I made it. I wish I got an award, the actual award. What would it look like? Of course, it's a closed set.

Lisa Edelstein

I would like to win the Pulitzer Prize. I would like to win the Nobel Prize. I would like to win a Tony award for the Broadway musical I'm now working on. Aside from these, my aspirations are modest ones.

David Sedaris

A new kind of award has been added -- the deathbed award. It is not an award of any kind. Either the recipient has not acted at all, or was not nominated, or did not win the award the last few times around. It is intended to relieve the guilty conscience of the Academy members and save face in front of the public. The Academy has the horrible taste to have a star, choking with emotion, present this deathbed award so that there can be no doubt in anybody's mind why the award is so hurriedly given. Lucky is the actor who is too sick to watch the proceedings on television.

Marlene Dietrich

If there's an award for best mother-in-law in the universe, in the future, when my son gets married, I will win that award.

Laura Schlessinger

I remember when I first won the Academy Award and how much I loved it. I just wish there was an award around that you could really believe in again.

Joanne Woodward

I remember when I first won the Academy Award, and how much I loved it. I just wish there was an award around that you could really believe in again.

Joanne Woodward

Why would I want to run for Congress and continue to get tainted with all the things that people get tainted with as they come along the system.

Benjamin Carson

I wish the night would end, I wish the day'd begin, I wish it would rain or snow, or the wind would blow, or the grass would grow, I wish I had yesterday, I wish there were games to play.
