I actually think of being funny as an odd turn of mind like a mild disability some weird way of looking at the world that you can't get rid of.

The people I grew up around who I really liked were quick on the draw. It always just wowed me. And my mum would make weird funny comments. I can see in myself her self-deprecating hippie humour. I can't take myself too seriously.

St. Louis has a lot of weird food customs that you don't see other places - and a lot of great ethnic neighborhoods. There's a German neighborhood. A great old school Italian neighborhood with toasted ravioli which seems to be a St. Louis tradition. And they love provolone cheese in St. Louis.

Most fears are basic: fear of the dark fear of going down in the basement fear of weird sounds fear that somebody is waiting for you in your closet. Those kinds of things stay with you no matter what age.

For somebody famous it's weird anyway to meet someone because they have a preconceived notion of who you are.

It's been real weird. It wasn't how I expected my life to turn out. Especially mainly pertaining to the show. It never crossed my mind that one day I'm gonna be big and famous and have my own TV show you know?

I think that as soon as you think of yourself as a famous person or anything like that you're objectifying yourself in some weird way.

When famous people come up to you it's a bit weird but it's an honour really when they recognise you and want to chat to you for a bit.

I know I have this level of celebrity of fame international national whatever you want to call it but it's a pretty surreal thing to think sometimes that you're in the middle of another famous person's life and you think to yourself 'How the hell did I get famous? What is this some weird club that we're in?'

The thing about being famous is it's weird. The only people who get how weird it is are other famous people.

Our family was too strange and weird for even Santa Claus to come visit... Santa who was jolly - but let's face it he was also very judgmental.

I really have created a family. I work with the people I love I travel with them I make films with them and I'm in an office with them. So in a weird way - I know I haven't birthed a child - I feel that I'm a part of creating a family. It's a tribe. I love that word.

There are a lot of Christian fundamentalists there are a lot of Muslim extremists. Every religion - Mormonism - has something way on the side that's completely using the religion as some weird backbone for their twisted faith. It has nothing to do with their religion.

Democrats are people who raise your taxes and spend your money on weird stuff. They steal your guns and they spit on your faith.

Do I ever think Gossip will be really massive in America? No I don't think it'll happen - and that's fine. It's kind of nice because I get to experience everything at once. I get to come home and it not be weird like in Paris or something. It is nice to be completely anonymous.

When I'm home on a break I lock myself in my room and play guitar. After two or three hours I start getting into this total meditation. It's a feeling few people experience and that's usually when I come up with weird stuff. It just flows. I can't force myself. I don't sit down and say I've got to practice.

Men do weird things when they experience fear. It's like a fight-or-flight thing.

I don't remember my dreams. I'm one of those weird people. I know there are tricks and things you can do but I never remember my dreams.

It's weird to say but every time I look at my daughter and I see this little living breathing thing that came from me that represents all of the hopes and dreams that I would want for her I see a miracle.

After having done this whole slew of press for 'Big Love ' now I'll have anxiety dreams for like a week and a half about all the stupid things I said. I can't even imagine being in front of the cameras all the time. I had a weird dream the other night that I was on 'Jersey Shore.'

A friend told me that teenage girls are always looking for someone to pin their dreams on. That doesn't make it any less weird though.

I think I've done every crazy diet there was in the beginning but it's weird: I'm thinner now than I was when I was modeling. I don't obsess about it.

Death Valley is really wide-open - it's bigger than Rhode Island - and it's less a part of California than an ungoverned territory so there's lots of weird cops-and-robbers stuff going on.

I'm a bad dater - I'm just not good at it. It's so weird dating in this town. It's like high school. I get a lot of people who have their publicist call my agent to ask 'Is she dating anyone?'
