I also avoid getting entangled in things that will create scandals for me as an actress

I am committed to maintaining my reputation and professional standing, and I refuse to allow unfounded accusations from one individuals to undermine my hard work and achievement.

It’s just the kind of person I am, that’s how I was raised. I am not controversial at all. I’m not dramatic and I’m not an attention seeker. You will not catch me in situations of strife. I’m human, and there are times when people get on my nerves, but I hardly ever blow things out of proportion. I’m not going to let the way people behave change me.

You see, I'm the event. I am the news

I avoid all political complications," said Cloche, with a severe expression. "Of whatever stripe. I only wish that political complications would similarly avoid me, and my work.

I am one of those men who never enter into controversies but I shall certainly speak my views to anybody whom I may meet on the subject.

What I do in my personal life doesn't come under responsibility of media. I appreciate your efforts to keep me in the headlines.

Never trouble trouble till trouble troubles you. I'll not willingly offend, nor be easily offended.

I hate publicity, celebrity, fame, and notoriety, all of which are associated with controversy in its public form. But, in fairness, all my life I've been rather upfront with my opinions and never hidden them on grounds of conformity or (I fear) politesse. However, until the wretched Polish consulate affair, I don't think I was ever controversial—I was certainly not known outside of the hermetic little world of the academy, and my contrarian scholarly writings aroused no great fuss.

I don't want my work to be an exposure of my feelings.

In most of my campaigns, I find it is best not to mention my opponent by name because, by doing so, it just gives him a chance to get into the headlines.

This is not a showman’s job. I will not step out of character.

No. I won’t think about that. I’m not the man the press wants me to be. I am not the victim here.

No scandal about Queen Elizabeth, I hope?
