My focus is always on the day. What I've done behind me I try to have respect for it and keep an eye on it and make sure it isn't abused and obviously be thoughtful about it because it's all real to me. I'm basically in every band I ever was in and the songs I still mean them all.

When you have fans who are hassling you the entire game and you ignore them they respect you because their job is to try and distract you. And if they don't distract you that means you're focused on doing your job. And who knows by the end sometimes you even win them over.

Whenever I go out so many people who respect me ask me what to do in a certain situation. A lot of times I didn't know the answers because sometimes I was going through the same sort of thing. But then later on I would think of things that people told me.

I learn something from criticism because when it comes from sources you respect you always examine it and learn.

Someone's career that I admire would have to be Justin Timberlake's because he started off on Disney and he made this huge film career and huge solo music career. I really respect him as an artist.

I want to establish a wide range and play all kinds of parts. It's that sort of acting career I really respect. I like to turn a sharp left from whatever I've done before because that keeps me awake. That's why I want to be an actor - I don't want to play endless variations on one character.

I actually have more respect for people who are in the closet. You end up exposing so much of yourself because you have to talk about your sexual life. You shouldn't have to talk about it.

I dress up a certain way because I respect the music.

I want to say with the utmost of sincerity not as a Republican but as an American that I have great respect for Senator Obama's historic achievement to become his party's nominee not because of his color but with indifference to it.

The only theism worthy of our respect believes in God not because of the way the world is made but in spite of that. The only theism that is no less profound than the Buddha's atheism is that represented in the Bible by Job and Jeremiah.

All due respect and trying to be as modest as I can be I am a dancer. But I don't think I would be on 'Dancing with the Stars ' mainly because I would be too shy.

Picasso is a character that has pursued me for a long time and I always rejected. He deserves a lot of respect because I am from Malaga and I was born four blocks from where he was born.

I respect country music because I feel like it's more about the talent and the songwriting and I put on a big show and we have a lot of stuff but I feel confident in myself enough as an artist and a singer that I can have all of those fun toys and know that we don't need all the bells and whistles either.

After reading Eminem's autobiography which I did because I'm so interested in him as an artist I respect him a lot. Even though he seems angry and mad he's had to fight so many demons in his life.

I'm not gonna say that I hate it because I really respect Usher and I was influenced by him. But so many people compare me to him and I don't think it'll ever stop. I just want to be my own artist.

Give your teachers the respect they deserve because they are the ones who can help you get where you need to go.

Why do you think I write these feminist songs to try and teach myself to respect myself. You know it's not because I'm a hero.

I have a rule on my team: when we talk to one another we look each other right in the eye because I think it's tough to lie to somebody. You give respect to somebody.

I work with people I admire and respect. It's never because of who they are.

I don't regret anything I ever do or say. I don't like to live my life being censored. I like to say what I feel and I think people respect that because you're honest.

I've always had great respect for Paddington because he is amusingly English and eccentric. He is a great British institution and my generation grew up with the books and then Michael Horden's animations.

I'm a good girl because I really believe in love integrity and respect.

All men are somewhat ridiculous and grotesque just because they are men and in this respect artists might well be regarded as man multiplied by two. So it is was and shall be.

It is justice and respect that I want the world to dust off and put - without delay and with tenderness - back on the head of the Palestinian child. It will be imperfect justice and respect because the injustice and disrespect have been so severe. But I believe we are right to try.
