My Own

I have my own studio down in Miami.

I'm pretty goofy. I laugh at my own jokes.

I always did think that when I turned 40, I'd start coming into my own.

There is enough going on in Olympic year without having to do my own cooking and washing.

I reject your reality and substitute my own.

Either I need an assignment with a strict deadline - like something for a movie or a TV show or whatever - or else I need to create a made-up deadline for myself for my own records. Otherwise, I don't write anything.

When I made my Broadway debut, I was still cleaning houses, something I'd done since I went out on my own at 15.

I take a lot of ladies' vitamins, because I never buy my own and that's what's in the house. More iron.

When I was doing a movie called 'The Seeker,' I was fortunate enough to be able to do a lot of my own stunts.

I like to write and draw everything with sharpies. I even got one with my own name on it!

My own 'sentimental favorite' is always the novel I haven't yet written - I suppose that's the one I consider my 'masterpiece' as well.

I love my own music.

The whole time I was with 'The Temptations', I was accumulating my own solo recordings.

Of course, my own political beliefs inform the ideas I come up with.

As far as behind the scenes, I absolutely want to get into making my own films and producing my own things.

I have a passion for not only my own kids but just kids in general.

Since I was not able wholly to subscribe to any one set of beliefs advanced by any 'guru' I had to fall back on my own, however derivative.
