I want to be around when I'm 60; I don't want to be some flash in the pan. — © Rachael Stirling
I want to be around when I'm 60; I don't want to be some flash in the pan.
I want to be around for a long time, I don't want to be a flash in the pan. I hope I'll be 50 years old and still making music.
I want longevity. I don't want to be a flash in the pan. I want to continue to do good work and projects that inspire me, and if I can have fun while doing it, that's the dream.
I don't want to be a flash in the pan. I want to be around for a very long time. I want to be like a Sheryl Crow or a Melissa Etheridge or even a Madonna with how her career has lasted so long and she is still respected in the music business. That's really what I am aiming for. I'm not really looking for 15 minutes of fame.
I don't want to be a flash in the pan. I don't want people to just remember me for one thing.
I want in 40 years to still be acting and to more than anything have longevity and not just be this huge flash in the pan and then disappear.
Writers want to be reread. They want to think that their words don't just flash by but deserve some reflection.
I want to think I deserve what I get. I don't want to consider how vastly I am overly rewarded. I don't want to consider the injustices around me. I don't want any encounters with the disenfranchised. I want to say it's not my fault. But it is, it's yours and mine, and ours. We'd better figure out ways to spread some equity around if we want to go on living in a society that is at least semi-functional. It's a fundamental responsibility, to ourselves.
I don't want to be 60 years old standing on stage telling some jokes. I want my life to mean something.
So if anybody wants to get me something, get me 60 crabs - one for each year. I don't want no diamonds, I don't want no shoes, I don't want no party. I want some crabs.
We've got to stand up for ourselves. That is, draw some lines, make it clear that after awhile, we're not going to get bullied or pushed around, because I think there are some in China who want to push the United States around. They want to bully us.
I'm a flash in the pan: a novelty.
I've got Peter Pan syndrome. It's not that I refuse to grow up - I love building businesses; I want to be a good husband, a good father. But I don't want to be boring. I don't want to be normal.
One of the hazards of making a major discovery early in your career is the burden of expectation, not helped in my case by becoming a wife and mother soon afterwards. I'm sure some people think it was a flash in the pan.
Everybody knows about Las Vegas. It's a state of mind. Some people want to come with their kids and have a great weekend. Some people want to shop. Some people want to find hookers. Some people want to eat. Some people just want to gamble. It's a potpourri of decadence.
Do you think I'm going to be one of those flash-in-the-pan actresses?
It's not that I don't love the song. My songs are like my children: some you want around and some you want to send off to college as soon as possible.
