Hugh Jackman Quotes
  • There comes a certain point in life when you have to stop blaming other people for how you feel or the misfortunes in your life. You can't go through life obsessing about what might have been.
  • I had spent some time in the outback, but to meet Aboriginals and work with them was wonderful. It gave me a great appreciation of how tough life is and about the indomitable spirit that the Aboriginal people have always possessed.

  • Meditation is all about the pursuit of nothingness. It's like the ultimate rest. It's better than the best sleep you've ever had. It's a quieting of the mind. It sharpens everything, especially your appreciation of your surroundings. It keeps life fresh.

    How Well Do You Know Sam Neill ?

    1. Nigel John Dermot "Sam" Neill, DCNZM, OBE is a British-born New Zealand actor who first achieved leading roles in films such as Omen III: The Final Conflict and Dead Calm and on television in Reilly, Ace of Spies.



    Net worth $12 million



     Lives in  New Zealand ,  but  born  in  Northern Ireland.



    From time to time , Sam Neill  has been in  the media   speaking  out against the rapid urbanisation of Queenstown ( the city where he lives ) ,  but that is about all we ever here from him  in local news.


    In 2004, on the Australian  talk show  Enough Rope, the interviewer  briefly touched on the issue of Neill's "very bad" stuttering. It affected most of his childhood and as a result he was "hoping that people wouldn't talk to [him]" so he would not have to answer back. He also stated, "I kind of outgrew it. I can still... you can still detect me as a stammerer."

    I  don't like how  he  has signed his name on  his neck !



    So weird that  he is in movies

    How Well Do You Know Anna Paquin ?

    Left Out Of X-Men

    Dismissed

    Forgotten

    It seems like that Anna Paquin's take on Rogue is gone, given the fact that a new generation of the original X-Men are being cast for X-Men: Apocalypse...but that doesn't mean Paquin herself hasn't given a little thought to how to bring the character back, especially with the X-Men: Days of Future Past Rogue Cut coming this summer.
    Asked by a fan whether she would consider coming back as Rogue in a future film, Paquin said that she would...as long as she got to fly.


    1. Anna Helene Paquin is a Canadian-born New Zealand actress. Her first film was The Piano, for which she won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in March 1994 at the age of 11, making her the second youngest winner in Oscar history. 



    Net worth $14 million



      Later on, Anna Paquin starred in many more successful movies, such as “Almost Famous”, “Fly Away Home”, “X-Men” movies and “She’s All That”.




    In addition to her appearances in movies, Anna Paquin is also known from TV screens. As a TV show actress, she is best remembered from the TV series called “True Blood”, which is airing in the HBO network. In 2009, for her role in it she was awarded with the Golden Globe award.


    Sexy  time ?
    Yes?
    How much ?




    So weird that she is in movies


     Anna Paquin might be a real vampire . Not sure...

    Anna Paquin Quotes :



    Everything about being a teenager and not feeling like you fit in is just magnified by being a mutant!

    If I don't do laundry today, I'm gonna have to buy new clothes tomorrow.

    I've never really been one of those girls who's scared of showing a bit of flesh.

    You find happiness where you find it.


    None of the characters I've played are really like me. That would be boring. That wouldn't be acting.
