''Love is a mess, at best, and I figure it can be very real in spite of all the things people try to attach to it. I don't subscribe to the talk-show mentality of abuse and dysfunction, healthy and nonhealthy. That's just a lot of stuff to f--- people up. The bottom line is, you love your wife, you do your best with that.''
She's So Lovely's SEAN PENN on E! Online

''Let me put George Clooney at the top of the 'who would I like to have a love scene with' list. Although I know him — we shoot on the same WB lot — I become sweaty and stutter and have to walk away [when I see him]. I can't imagine doing a love scene would be very easy.

''Woody [Allen] is the kind of director who doesn't intrude on what you're doing. It was easy [to work for him in 1993's Manhattan Murder Mystery], because he was not a dictatorial type.

He completely ignored all the headlines.''
The View's JOY BEHAR on Prodigy

''[Movie] audiences tend to love bad guys. Niceness...is not rewarded as much as drama. We all try to be civil in real life, but there's a part of us that admires unequivocal evil tendencies.''
The Game's MICHAEL DOUGLAS on E! Online
