Sister Quotes

Sister Act’ was my first audition out of school. I was 21 and cast as the understudy. It was non-Equity, so I lived in L.A. on $300 a week. I did that for a month and then came to New York to do a couple of gigs, including ‘Hair’ in the park, before going to London with ‘Sister Act,’ where I played the lead Picture Quote #1

When my sister and I came along, my father’s political life was completely over. He ran for president the year I was born. So that was the end of it. He had been congressman first, then governor, before all that. So when we came along, he was running the Dayton newspaper Picture Quote #1

When you forget yesterday and embrace the new vision of what you are to become through the eyes of your best friend, you have found a new sister standing by the open door that was once closed in your heart Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been drawn to the four-leaf clover. It’s deeply significant to my sister and me, so much so that we both have had it tattooed on the inside of our wrists Picture Quote #1

But me and my sister knew all the Doris Day and Frank Sinatra songs, too Picture Quote #1

Pick up a camera. Shoot something. No matter how small, no matter how cheesy, no matter whether your friends and your sister star in it. Put your name on it as director. Now you’re a director. Everything after that you’re just negotiating your budget and your fee Picture Quote #1

I love anybody funny. I think my ten-year-old sister is really funny. She makes me laugh way more than most people do Picture Quote #1

When I was younger, my sister thought it was funny to pretend to punch me in the face because my mom was concerned about my teeth falling out. They were loose for a long time, and she knocked out my teeth Picture Quote #1

I have three younger siblings, so the four of us were outside all the time after school playing games, making up games. My sister made up a game called ‘roof ball.’ We’d play that constantly. She always beat me in it, and it made me very mad. But we were outside all the time Picture Quote #1

Obviously, in marketing, the best tool is to show the autobiography in fiction. It’s inevitable how that happens, but it’s generic. Say I’ve written a story where my sister dies. ‘Well, did your sister die?’ No, she did not. But people use those straws to grasp at the difference between reality and fiction Picture Quote #1

Well, I used to have a sister, but I never got to meet her because she died after two days, I think. So if I got a tattoo, it would probably have to be something to do with my sister. I actually want to get a tattoo when I’m older of something about her Picture Quote #1

I think that’s important to women in comedy, that we get a lot of the good lines and you’re not just the girlfriend or the sister Picture Quote #1

My mom and dad put my brother and sister through university and they were very keen for us to have an academic background just to give us a chance Picture Quote #1

Everything that feminism stands for is everything American, white, red and blue democratic. It is all the same stuff. So, I am boggled that I should have to give up this term that encapsulates what I want for my children, for my world, culture, brothers and sister because someone else thinks it means I don’t shave my armpits Picture Quote #1

I remember when I was writing ‘The Tin Drum,’ I had the totally misguided idea of giving Oskar Matzerath a sister, and he just wouldn’t have it. There was no space for a sister, yet I had the character of the sister in my head. In fact I used her in later novels, in ‘Cat and Mouse’ and ‘Dog Years,’ Tulla Pokriski Picture Quote #1

It’s a bit startling to achieve global recognition before the age of 30 on account of your sister, your brother-in-law and your bottom. One day I might be able to make sense of this. In the meantime I think it’s fair to say that it has its upside and its downside Picture Quote #1

My parents got my sister and I to go to church and have piano lessons. We were keen and they could see that Picture Quote #1

My goal in going public was not to put my extended family to shame, or to get back at Brian for abusing my sister and me; rather, my mission was to give a face and voice to an epidemic that society stays hushed about Picture Quote #1

To be able to go the distance with a brother or sister, to have them turn into your ally, is about the greatest thing that can ever happen to you Picture Quote #1

At home, I had seven brothers, one sister. I sewed clothes for my sister’s dolls although she was grown and gone away. I was a weirdo but didn’t think I was a weirdo Picture Quote #1

My sister is as responsible for anyone for giving me good taste in music Picture Quote #1

I am proud that I am a good mother to my children, a good daughter to my mother, a good sister to my sis (Ashley Judd) and a good wife to my new husband Picture Quote #1

A good sister is one who won’t be embarrassed when you burst into tears in public. A better one will hand you tissues until you stop. The best is the one who will go get you another latte to go with the ginormous chocolate orgy she’s already laid in front of you Picture Quote #1

Don’t solicit for your sister, it’s not nice. Unless you get a good percentage of her price Picture Quote #1

There is only one good substitute for the endearments of a sister, and that is the endearments of some other fellow’s sister Picture Quote #1

My sister married a German. He complained he couldn’t get a good bagel back home. I said: ‘Well, whose fault is that?’ Picture Quote #1

But whenever she thanks the givers for favors great and small, she thinks of the good little sister who gave her more than they all Picture Quote #1
