~By Joan Miro ~
I've been on the show for six years and I don't even know what her history is. I sort of make things up in my mind, but I think it's hard for an audience to follow and invest in a character when they don't have the details.
~By Crystal Chappell ~

You don't forget the movies, but you forget the details of them.
~By Sissy Spacek ~

~By Lawrence Kasdan ~
The focus and the concentration and the attention to detail that flying takes is a kind of meditation. I find it restful and engaging, and other things slip away.

~By Thomas Bailey Aldrich ~
A man's accomplishments in life are the cumulative effect of his attention to detail.
~By John Foster Dulles ~
I've been called many names like perfectionist, difficult and obsessive. I think it takes obsession, takes searching for the details for any artist to be good.

~By Aimee Mann ~
We think in generalities, but we live in detail.
