1 " A professionally trained actress should be a better liar, wouldn't you think? But no. I am pathetically underachieved in that area. I can think of a great lie. I'm plenty imaginative. But before the words are even out of my mouth, there's a weird tickle of unease in my armpits, a horsefly of guilt lands on the back of my neck, and before I can stop myself, that gassy little bubble of truth belches out. "
― Kristin Chenoweth , A Little Bit Wicked: Life, Love, and Faith in Stages
2 " We sing because we can't speak anymore. Dance is an extension of that - we dance because we can't speak anymore. "
― Kristin Chenoweth
3 " If you can learn to love yourself and all the flaws, you can love other people so much better. And that makes you so happy. "
4 " Life's too short. I'm not! "
5 " Labor omnia vincit! "Labor conquers all things! "
6 " It's good to learn early that every show is a family---complete with dysfunctional relationships, tough love, and plenty of occasion for forgiveness... "
7 " But there's the beauty of life beyond the bubble. It's possible for someone to see your wicked bits and still love you. "
8 " I'm sick of people who've never been to church telling me that church is full of hypocrites, and people who've never read the Bible telling me that it's baloney. "
9 " I'm a very controversial figure in the Christian world. I don't believe if you're gay or you have a drink or you dance, you're going to hell. I don't think that's the kind of God we have. The Pat Robertsons and Jerry Falwells of the world are scary. I want to be a Christian like Christ - loving and accepting of other people. "
10 " Two scoops of crazy with a side of coo coo ca choo "
11 " Laughter is life-giving. It makes you breathe. "
12 " Some relationships aren't meant to be Great Love; they're meant to be like a hot fudge sundae--enjoyable but not something you can acually live on. "
13 " It also bugs me when I hear about "Angelina's adopted son" or "Rosie's adopted children"--as if that word will always separate them instead of binding them together. Angelina's son and Rosie's kids and I sould get a regular apostrophe-plus-s like everybody else. "
14 " All my life, I'd been on the receiving end of my mother's endless tenderness and vigilant care. Being allowed to care for her during her recovery was a gift – the most rewarding experience in my life. "
15 " The lasting legacy of the Cooter Smash is that I'm the first to know when it's going to rain. That's right. I both sing and predict the weather with my hoo hoo. "
16 " Do you know what a magical kingdom is in your ear? A fairy cave leads to an Ali Baba doorway, beyond which the bony little ossicles - Malleus, Incus, and Stapes - guard the great snail, Cochlea, to whom God has given the power to transform the indiscernible movement of air into music. "
17 " Life's too short, I'm not. "
