You don’t become a star. You either are one or you ain’t.[to Manny]
When in doubt, say something French.
It’s written in the stars. I am a star.
If you could go anywhere in the whole world, where would you go?[to Manny]
I’ve never done nothing except disappoint people my whole life. Teachers told me I was no good. Boys told me I was no good. Every f***ing casting director in the city told me I was too short or I was too fat. Usually I was too fat.
I got here on my terms, not theirs. And when I’m done, I’m gonna dance my ass off into the night. And they’ll know, everyone will f***ing know that they could never control one goddamn f***ing thing.
