This is ridiculous, I mean, wholly ridiculous. It never did any child any harm to have something that was a tiny bit above them anyway, and I claim that anyone who can follow Doctor Who can follow absolutely anything.
To think one film makes a career is ridiculous. It’s important to keep perspective and do things other than for money.
We were racing at circuits where there were no crash barriers in front of the pits, and fuel was lying about in churns in the pit lane. A car could easily crash into the pits at any time. It was ridiculous.

Out of 35 pictures I made, 30 were ridiculous.

I’ve been blackmailed a billion times. I’ve been sued for ridiculous things. At one point in my life, I was an ATM machine. But I’m used to that. You don’t get used to it, but I’m used to the fact that people will do this, even your own family members, and I don’t hate none of them.
I haven’t done much press for many reasons, but mostly because it’s not an interesting dialogue about work that’s been done. It’s turned into something else. It’s become this ridiculous other thing.

I sometimes wonder, the tendency for anybody, especially when you’re with friends and you’re in the trenches, is to laugh at the stuff that you interpret as ridiculous or silly, and to grouch about the things that you interpret as not being good.

There’s been no major motion picture released by a studio, no independent motion picture, in theaters, with King at the center, in the 50 years since these events happened, when we have biopics on all kinds of ridiculous people. And nothing on King? No cinematic representation that’s meaningful and centered.
I do shows, stage shows all the time, and I’m so afraid that people are going to recognize themselves, and they never do. They never do. They’re always like, ‘Oh, that woman was ridiculous,’ and yeah, they’re talking about themselves.

I recently read an article on how I was dropped from a film because I couldn’t dance! It was so ridiculous that I decided to shut up about it. Let people say what they want to. It’s such a waste of time.

I find the heated political debate over the burkini both ridiculous and dangerous.
The argument that gay marriage doesn’t affect straight marriages is a ridiculous red herring: Gay marriage affects society and law in dramatic ways.
