Adam Brody
'Girls' feels very active and stirring a conversation and controversial, and you can't really ask for more as an actor.
Adam Driver

The issue of human rights is one of the most fundamental human issues and also one of the most sensitive and controversial.

Amanda Fuller
It's really easy to avoid the tabloids. You just live your life and don't hang out with famous people who are in the tabloids. Don't do anything controversial and be a normal person. Have friends. And get a job and keep working.

Annie Jacobsen
I always thought, 'I could go the route of saying some controversial things and have it explode, just do it like that. But I don't do that.' But of course, it wasn't really up to me.
Ariel Pink
To the citizens of Israel, I say: we have passed difficult years, faced the most painful experiences and overcame them. The future lies before us.
