Tobey Maguire and I had a tough relationship – it was a tough working relationship. We butted heads, and ultimately, I lost the Los Angeles game because of differences with him.

I know Charles Michael Davis. I used to play poker with him when I lived in Los Angeles. Joseph Morgan
London has such an unbelievable respect for theater, where L.A. does not. You go to a play here, and the dude next to you is sleeping. In London, if you’re not in your seat when it starts, they lock the door. In Los Angeles, you can stroll into school late with a cup of coffee. In London, you get your butt to class on time. Devin Kelley
In Los Angeles, everyone is a star. Denzel Washington

In the late 1960s, Ontario Airport was a throwback to a bygone era. Located 35 miles east of downtown Los Angeles, the airport served only two carriers, Western and Bonanza.

I jumped between two seven-story buildings in Los Angeles, launching from one rooftop to the other with ramps. Tony Hawk

I owe my whole acting career to the fact that I’m a singer. I went out to Los Angeles and auditioned for a TV show called ‘Fame L.A.’ The original role was for a comedian, but they said I wasn’t very funny, so they asked me, ‘What else can you do?’ So I played a singer. Christian Kane
My brother and I did theater in high school, and were both in Pennsylvania Youth Theatre. It was awesome. When you go to Los Angeles, it’s a rough city, and it’s hard. You drive around in your car in your own little bubble, and there’s tons of rejection. Being from the Lehigh Valley helped because it was something so stable. Kate Micucci
I wake up every morning and I feel like I’m juggling glass balls.

I travel a lot, my team travel a lot, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Victoria Beckham
I live in New York, and I love New York as well, but I think Los Angeles is a place where if you have the right person with you, there are all these little worlds that you would never guess by just looking at the exterior of what the city is. Greta Gerwig
In the 1950s, my family first lived in West Los Angeles. Dad was studying architecture at USC and we didn’t have a lot of money.

The renaissance of the NBA in the 80s was due to the racial proxy battle between charming, good looking and unmistakably Black Magic Johnson of the glitzy Showtime Los Angeles Lakers vs. the lanky, tousled hair, Indiana born White Larry Bird of the blue-collar Boston Celtics. Jason Johnson
I know some people who live this much more insulated life in Los Angeles, where their feet never touch public ground.

They’re in a bubble the whole time. Alec Baldwin
I would say New York, Chicago, Memphis, and Los Angeles were my favorites. Jimmy Page

If we do high-speed rail, the governor has to be intelligent and invest the dollars at the ‘bookends’ – San Francisco and Los Angeles. Kevin de Leon

The only Angels in Los Angeles are in Heaven, and they’re looking down on the Dodgers. Tommy Lasorda

In certain parts of the world – where I’m at right now in New York, you’re going to pay a whole lot more. In Los Angeles, your average starter home is a million dollars.
