When we were kind of forced (by real life sniper murders in the Washington area that were too close to the film's plot) to pull the picture in October (from its Nov. 15 date), he wasn't nearly as big a star as he is today after 'Daredevil' and 'The Recruit.' He's become this hot guy.

Elvis Presley

When I was a child, ladies and gentleman, I was a dreamer. I read comic books, and I was the hero in the movie.

So I keep singing my song.

Aasif Mandvi

This is a bit of a natural gas play. It's the one company in this sector that can increase their production should prices turn higher. Many others are limited by their ability to continue to pump out further amounts of product. I think Anadarko is vastly undervalued. To get another 30-to-50 percent out of the name over the course of the next 12-to-18 months would not surprise me at all.

Cheryl Strayed

Each evening, I ached for the shelter of my tent, for the smallest sense that something was shielding me from the entire rest of the world, keeping me safe not from danger, but from vastness itself.
