Jody Williams

I think there’s a mythology that if you want to change the world, you have to be sainted, like Mother Teresa or Nelson Mandela or Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Ordinary people with lives that go up and down and around in circles can still contribute to change.

– Jody Williams

Jim Wallis

I think it’s a good thing for a president or political leaders to want to put their values or their faith into action. Desmond Tutu did that in South Africa. Martin Luther King Jr. did that here. This is a good thing.

– Jim Wallis

Helen Hunt

I haven’t watched anything I’ve been in since I’ve done it. I have never put in a movie at home that I’ve been in. Why? I don’t know. I would feel like Norma Desmond. And I have a kid, so time is at a premium.

– Helen Hunt

Gloria Swanson

I didn’t want to spend the rest of my life playing Norma Desmond over and over again.

– Gloria Swanson

Dave Brubeck

I got a poster from Columbia Records, and there’s Miles Davis, Charlie Mingus, Ellington, Count Basie – everybody in that poster has died, I’m the only one left. And great players like Paul Desmond and Gerry Mulligan, it’s hard to believe they’re gone because we were all so close. But I believe in the future and the tradition will go on.

– Dave Brubeck

Craig Ferguson

I’m crazy. I know I’m crazy ’cause Desmond Tutu told me, and he’s very clever. He said, ‘You must free yourself, be more of who you are. Be more crazy.’ And I’m going to.

– Craig Ferguson

Carlton Cuse

The most difficult story that I’ve ever been involved in breaking on any of my shows was ‘The Constant’ episode of ‘Lost,’ which was when Desmond was consciousness-traveling.

– Carlton Cuse

Boz Scaggs

As far as other instrumentalists, I used to love mellow sax players like Paul Desmond. I love piano.

Anna Chlumsky

Right now I’m just thinking about school and trying to get those grades and keep them up! In case I become a Norma Desmond when I grow up, I can have something to fall back on!

– Anna Chlumsky

Ace Young

My first album after ‘American Idol’ I did with Desmond – we paid for it together, and we literally were together working on it every day for a year and half, just writing. We wrote in New York, Nashville, L.A., Sweden – we wrote with some other amazing songwriters like Diane Warren, too.

– Ace Young
