I have never been an easy fit. I'm a leading lady character actor; I don't fit in one slot simply.

For me, a show's a show. I try to put on the best show I can for whatever audience or time slot I get.

Octavia Butler was more interested in writing a good story than in worrying about where to slot it.

Script comes first, then the actors, then you gotta be lucky enough to get the right time slot. Then people have to watch.

I love to go to casinos with my wife. I play poker, and she's an old-fashioned slot queen. She even has a visor.

You gotta keep trying to find your niche and trying to fit into whatever slot that's left for you or to make one of your own.

I guess I hadn't counted on 'The Unblackening' happening to my time slot as well.

Everyone hopes to get a fall slot, but I'm just happy to get on the air.

Just as someone who's been interested in radio and programming for so long, I can usually tell when an interviewer is doing a segment just to fill a programming slot. They ask questions, but they don't care about the answers.

If I'm going to do something a little bit more adult, I'll do it if it's going to be on at a different time slot or if it's going to be something that kids won't be able to get their hands on.

For Christmas every year, my mother used to give me those cheap little diaries that would tell your horoscope and provide a little blank slot for each day.

I would need a book to describe Jamal Miles. He can do it all. We line him up in the slot. We bring him into the backfield. We hand the ball to him. We send him in motion and get him the ball. He throws the football. He might be the best athlete I've ever been around in my life.

They wanted to audition people for the Middle East correspondent on 'The Daily Show.' They wanted to hire somebody ethnic for that slot. Helms had left, Cordry had left, and they felt that they needed an ethnic face. So, I went in and auditioned, and I got the job.

Republicans can be a funny bunch. They're against affirmative action, but they always seem to be able to find people of color to fill a slot just when they're most needed.

I didn't much like Las Vegas. The noise of the place and the whole 24-hour, 'let's play the slot machines all night' culture of the place just left me cold.

I basically left Texas with no money. I was making $3.50 working in some mall, so I didn't have a lot of cash. I took $1,000 and headed to California. Along the way I stopped in Vegas because I had always wanted to see Caesar's Palace. So I stopped there and won $2,500 on a slot machine! It was amazing.

My father was a promoter of Fresh Fest, and they needed an opening act. He got me a slot as a dancer. We tried it out the first time in Atlanta and the crowd went crazy. I was the opening clown.

I don't sleep much. I'm on the go. My mind is racing. My wife says my mind is like the rolling dials on a slot machine. So, yeah, I think about everything.

The payoffs in showbiz seemed as random as a slot machine.

At every future election, there should be a slot, at the top of each ballot paper, in which we can put a cross against 'None of the below.'
