~By Henry Rollins ~
The Internet's been so great, and it's so nice to have fans do nice, elaborate websites, but I think the downside is some of the things... for real fans to go on and see that 90 percent of the information isn't true or to see pictures that aren't really me.
~By Denise Richards ~
Ever since I started to get recognition I've picked out certain fans and reverse-stalked them.

~By Neil Gaiman ~
But somehow I feel like still it's a gift, and I wonder, how can I give this gift to others? Just work hard, and do whatever I can do, to be that, and to return the love to the fans. I like to give them joy and smiles to them. Give back to them.

~By Jackie DeShannon ~

~By Michael Irvin ~
When the whole world has their eyes on you, if you say something that doesn't truly come from your spirit and your soul, or if you wear something that doesn't come from your spirit and your soul, it's an injustice to your position.

~By Lady Gaga ~

~By Conan O'Brien ~
Each of our 900 shows so far was different - maybe that's what makes the fans come back to our gigs time and again. And that they're always part of the show. Phish concerts are a communal experience.
~By Page McConnell ~
I think that was one thing I definitely brought to the table, my aggressiveness and my style of play, and I think that's one of the reasons why the fans here really appreciated the way that I went out and played, just because I think they kind of liked that.
~By Latrell Sprewell ~
The coolest thing about the series is that we stay very true to the books; it would be silly for us not to, because the books are exactly what the fans want to see. There's an action side to it, which I love, and there are werewolves now. There aren't just vampires. There's a wolf pack.
~By Taylor Lautner ~
In St. Louis, some people were hurt seriously when some fans got on top of a roof that was where other fans were underneath it, at a park somewhere, and it collapsed.

~By Owen Hart ~
I'm getting a wider circle of fans now. More women, more middle class people.
~By James Ellroy ~

~By Rob Walton ~
There's a lot of women in the WNBA. There's a lot of women who could be here. To be voted by the fans says a lot - that people are aware of what's going on. I'm really thankful. I think they just really appreciate my talent so I'm definitely grateful.
~By Lisa Leslie ~
The fans have been very nice to me and I might say that all those fans that Frank said went away is not so.
~By Jimmy Carl Black ~
I am fully committed to Hannah Montana. It's what gave me this amazing opportunity to reach out to so many people. I'm really excited about our new season.

Packer fans are nuts, man.
~By Ray Nitschke ~

~By Wynonna Judd ~
