3 December 2020 Bill Nighy It can’t be overstated how wonderful it is not to have to audition any more. Any actor will tell you, it’s like Christmas.
3 December 2020 Jim Carrey My mother was a professional sick person she took a lot of pain pills. There are many people like that. It’s just how they are used to getting attention. I always remember she’s the daughter of alcoholics who’d leave her alone at Christmas time.
3 December 2020 Barry Manilow First of all, I’ve been having a wonderful run of luck with cover albums, songs I didn’t write. I had five pop cover albums and two Christmas albums, and they were all very successful.
3 December 2020 Henny Youngman I once wanted to become an atheist, but I gave up – they have no holidays.
3 December 2020 Ivan Lendl I just travel all the time. And I was just looking at the schedules now and starting the first week of October I will be every weekend with somebody at tournaments through Christmas. So it gets very difficult to just go away and not do that.
3 December 2020 Cher I remember a great America where we made everything. There was a time when the only thing you got from Japan was a really bad cheap transistor radio that some aunt gave you for Christmas.
3 December 2020 James McAvoy I was talking to one of my aunties at Christmas and she said she didn’t think it was ever in my nature to go against the grain, that I was always a good boy. I think she was right – I did always want to be good.
3 December 2020 Hoda Kotb I’m a disorganized mess. My purse is gross: I once found a shoulder pad, string cheese, and a Christmas ornament in it!
3 December 2020 Luke Perry It’s hard and sometimes it’s scary. It still amazes my mother. I went home for Christmas one year and there were fans all over the front lawn, hoping to see me.
3 December 2020 Thomas Tusser At Christmas play and make good cheer, for Christmas comes but once a year.
3 December 2020 Richard Dawkins I suppose if you look back to your early childhood you accept everything people tell you, and that includes a heavy dose of irrationality – you’re told about tooth fairies and Father Christmas and things.
3 December 2020 Ice Cube I remember wishing there was snow in L.A. And how jealous we used to get of those Christmas specials with kids playing in the snow.
3 December 2020 TobyMac I think Christmas is about celebration and come on, on the inside everyone wants to dance.
3 December 2020 John Hughes Fantastic! Right in the middle of that long stretch between Christmas and Spring Break, your coats are getting dirty, everything’s dark, dingy – what a great time for a movie!
3 December 2020 Annie Lennox Making a Christmas album is looked upon by some people as the thing you do when you are heading towards retirement.
3 December 2020 Amy Sherman-Palladino People have nannies and big cars, and they want to go to Maui for Christmas. When there are those kind of stakes involved, people get ruthless.
3 December 2020 Jensen Ackles The worst gift that I ever gave a girl was a suitcase for Christmas. As in, ‘I can’t think of anything to give you, but here’s a new suitcase.’ Afterward, I was like, ‘What were you thinking, idiot?’
3 December 2020 Frances Farmer I went to Sunday School and liked the stories about Christ and the Christmas star. They were beautiful. They made you warm and happy to think about. But I didn’t believe them.
3 December 2020 Clement Clarke Moore As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly, when they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky. So up to the house-top the coursers they flew, with the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too.
3 December 2020 Steve Israel I actually share her view and understand her frustration when any government attempts to ban secular symbols like Santa Claus or Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer or Christmas lights.
3 December 2020 Johnny Vegas The cheese board is my big treat at Christmas that I have to deny myself during the rest of year.
3 December 2020 Rick Springfield The whole point of me doing a Christmas record and what I centered it around was the song ‘Christmas with You’ from the point-of-view of the soldiers in Iraq.
3 December 2020 Kin Hubbard Next to a circus there ain’t nothing that packs up and tears out faster than the Christmas spirit.
