"But the reason I became, why I wanted to be in the business was because there was Midnight Cowboy." ― Jodie Foster Topic(s): Business More From Jodie Foster "I have, in some ways, saved characters that have been marginalized by society by playing them – and having them still have dignity and still survive, still get through it." "I didn’t have any ambition to produce big mainstream popcorn movies." "The movies I made when I was 14 or 15, I have a hard time looking at those. Those were the awkward years. I don’t know if anybody can look at something they did when they were 14 and not wince." More In Business "Well, I was sort of a jack-of-all-trades in show business for a long time. I was a singer and a dancer and then I got a job as an actor."― Christopher Walken "The 9-9-9 plan would resuscitate this economy because it replaces the outdated tax code that allows politicians to pick winners and losers, and to provide favors in the form of tax breaks, special exemptions and loopholes. It simplifies the code dramatically: 9% business flat tax, 9% personal flat tax, 9% sales tax."― Herman Cain "It’s a reality that in this business there’s an expectation of being thin. But having a baby is a reality too, and it’s more important for me to make milk than to fit into those tiny pants. So that’s just going to have to wait."― Emily Procter
