Famous Person Quotes

What is this some weird club that we're in?'

I've long believed that for an award to gain prestige, all it takes is having one famous person win iteven if that one person doesn't know about the award or the fact that they've won it.

I have a great job writing for 'The Office,' but, really, all television writers do is dream of one day writing movies. I'll put it this way: At the Oscars the most famous person in the room is, like, Angelina Jolie. At the Emmys the huge exciting celebrity is Bethenny Frankel. You get what I mean.
- Mindy Kaling

I think it's useful, as a famous person, to have as little separation between the perception of you and how you really are - because otherwise I'd be sitting here thinking I'm keeping secrets, and wondering when you're going to find out.
