4229. I guess when you have that one monster season, it’s good because you’re recognized. If it weren’t for that season, not as many people would know about my career. But it also kind of diminishes what I did in other years. – Brady Anderson

4363. Each book will have a lot of cliffhangers, because I like that. – Kevin J. Anderson

4910. Where would you be without friends? The people to pick you up when you need lifting?

Nothing. – Jennifer Aniston

4911. I’ve gone for each type: the rough guy; the nerdy, sweet, lovable guy; and the slick guy. I don’t really have a type. Men in general are a good thing. – Jennifer Aniston

4914. I had an idea of what I thought was funny. It’s kind of based on how I am. – Jennifer Aniston

4915. I was told to avoid the business all together because of the rejection. People would say to me, ‘Don’t you want to have a normal job and a normal family?’ I guess that would be good advice for some people, but I wanted to act. – Jennifer Aniston

4916. If somebody ever wished to be me for a day, they’d be the most pissed-off person once they got here. They would be, like, in hell. – Jennifer Aniston
