Someone that I’m really inspired by, and that I look up to, is Oprah. It’s amazing how she created such an empire. – Eugenie Bouchard
My first real kiss was actually on the set of ‘The Vampire’s Assistant’ with Jessica Carlson who plays my crush in the movie. I was 15, she was 14. It was actually her first kiss too, so it was an interesting situation! – Chris Massoglia
The only ground on which a neutral State can claim respect at the hands of belligerents is, that, so far as she is concerned, their rights are protected. – Gerrit Smith
My wife is a terrific Southern cook. My favorite of all the great things she cooks is ‘trash potatoes.’ That’s mashed potatoes with sour cream, bacon, cheddar cheese, and horseradish. It’s a total gut bomb. – Mike Vogel
When I go, if there’s a tombstone it will say, She doesn’t give in. She doesn’t give up. And she never takes no for an answer. – Doris Roberts
I was with this girl the other night and from the way she was responding to my skillful caresses, you would have sworn that she was conscious from the top of her head to the tag on her toes. – Emo Philips

Mostly I’ve been inspired by my mother. She is extremely driven and always makes every endeavour sound exciting. I think most of the things I’ve accomplished are a result of knowing her. – Christopher Masterson
