Kirstie Alley

You'll never be disappointed if you always keep an eye on uncharted territory, where you'll be challenged and growing and having fun.

When I play ball, I play hardball.

Usually, about 85 percent of what the tabloids report is a lie. Over the last year, I can truly say it has been 99 percent.

Through history, people look for something spiritual. The greatest scientists in the world were men of religion and faith, too.

There's always somebody older, richer, more desperate than you.

There's a lot more to life than how fat or thin you are.

Look for someone who has a complete life without you in it. If you have a person you don't need for anything, that's ideal. You're just together because you really want to be.

I was so naive I didn't even know about agents. I telephoned the William Morris agency and asked to speak to Mr. Morris. I expected Bill Morris to be waiting for my call.

I don't smoke pot. I never liked it.

I don't like psychiatry. I don't believe it works. I believe psychiatrists are neurotic or psychotic, for the most part.

I don't believe you have to have eating disorders and mental illness to screw up.

I believe that behind both the person who weighs 400 pounds and the one who weighs 85 there is a lot of baggage, and it has nothing to do with their bodies.

I am the one who got myself fat, who did all the eating. So I had to take full responsibility for it.

I always feel like there is some dude out there with money that I could fall back on if I needed to.

God gave us intestines for a reason. I'm not keen on surgery. It's too extreme. All it took was one of those plastic surgery shows to see how violent it is.

The reason I went for Jenny Craig is I thought, Maybe I'm not the only one who has stupid reasons for getting fat.

I was really tired of words like 'plus size,' 'round' and 'large.' I thought, 'Come on, we're fat.'

I have photographs taken of me at the time I was addicted, and thought I looked good. I see them today and realize my eyes were dead.

I had a great time getting fat and now I'm going to have an even greater time losing weight. I had four offers from other companies, but I wanted to go with the ... one that I knew would work--and, let's face it, Jenny Craig's food is hands-down the yummiest.

I have a hotline to the tabloids. When I get up in the morning, I call the Star, and the last thing at night, I call them. I want them to have the inside track.

I love marriage. I failed at marriage, but I'd rather go into anything with gusto and fail than go into it half-assed.

When you're the spokeswoman for a weight-loss program, everything is witnessed. I weigh in once a week with a witness. I have to sign an affidavit saying I cannot have any surgeries.

You're not going to live your life unscathed.

Smile don't frown Look up don't look downBelieve in yourself Don't let yourself goJust be who you areAnd let your live flow..

I sort of feel sorry for the next man who gets me. I may just kill him with passion. He'd better be strong and have a good heart
