CELEBRITY QUOTE:   JACK NICHOLSON ON WHETHER HE SEES HIMSELF AS SEXY:  “It’s very hard to think of yourself in those terms. I see myself in the mirror every morning, and I’m looking the Devil right in the face. I don’t relate to what’s said about me – how famous I’m supposed to be, how much of a sex symbol I’m supposed to be – and I don’t think I could function, really, if I started to believe all that stuff.” 

READER QUOTE:  VIC LAMONT OF SIOUX FALLS, S.D. AFTER SEEING NICHOLSON’S QUOTE:    “Damn, I’m glad I’m not a celebrity. That poor bastard probably had some scruffy weasel hanging around for hours asking questions trying to find “Jack’s core,” and Jack was probably completely irritated but his manager said ‘Jack you’ve gotta talk to the guy or he’ll say “with age, Nicholson has grown more distant,” so Jack said all right all right I’ll talk, so he started just saying anything, like when you’re driving your mother-in-law to the airport and you’ll say anything just to fill the awkward silence and it’s all stuff you cringe when you hear yourself say it, but who cares because your mother in law is half-deaf and she’ll be dead in a couple years, but poor Jack has this guy standing there with a tape recorder and now that lame quote is all over the news. Poor bastard.”
