Date of Birth:<\/strong> July 24, 1979<\/p>\n Profession:<\/strong> Actress<\/p>\n Famous Quote:<\/strong> “I loved performing; I was always trying to impress my siblings by being a clown. I think that came from being the runt of the litter.”<\/em><\/p>\n Date of Birth:<\/strong> August 4, 1981<\/p>\n Profession:<\/strong> Actress<\/p>\n Famous Quote:<\/strong> “My father loved biographies. He loved the true tales of interesting people that were shaping our culture.

My dog actually lives in Georgia now. But I work with animal trainers and pets quite often. I also volunteer at different places like animal shelters. It’s good to be around pets. They kind of put things into perspective. They’re easygoing, loyal, and they seem to get it, even when humans don’t.”<\/em><\/p>\n Date of Birth:<\/strong> August 14, 1983<\/p>\n Profession:<\/strong> Actress<\/p>\n Famous Quote:<\/strong> “People have interpretations of what you’re supposed to be like. If you’re unattractive and overweight, you must have a great personality. If you’re attractive, then you must not be the nicest person. People are always taken aback that I’m easygoing but not necessarily stupid.”<\/em><\/p>\n Date of Birth:<\/strong> July 24, 1982<\/p>\n Profession:<\/strong> Actress<\/p>\n Famous Quote:<\/strong> “I think, generally, most people can’t maintain anything that’s particularly strict for very long. I watch people trying and failing to do that a lot.”<\/em><\/p>\n Date of Birth:<\/strong> August 15, 1990<\/p>\n Profession:<\/strong> Actress<\/p>\n Famous Quote:<\/strong> “I’ve done archery for about six weeks, and rock climbing, tree climbing – and combat, running and vaulting. But also yoga and things like that, to stay catlike!”<\/em><\/p>\n Date of Birth:<\/strong> July 24, 1897<\/p>\n Profession:<\/strong> Aviation Pioneer, Author<\/p>\n Famous Quote:<\/strong> “Women, like men, should try to do the impossible. And when they fail, their failure should be a challenge to others.”<\/em><\/p>\n Date of Birth:<\/strong> August 19, 1883<\/p>\n Profession:<\/strong> Fashion Designer<\/p>\n Famous Quote:<\/strong> “Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only.

The instinct to do that is inside every good man, I believe. The rules about opening doors and buying dinner and all of that other ‘gentleman’ stuff is a chess game, especially these days.”<\/em><\/p>\n Date of Birth:<\/strong> July 26, 1945<\/p>\n Profession:<\/strong> Actress<\/p>\n Famous Quote:<\/strong> “I don’t like the word ‘strong,’ because a strong character is never an interesting character.

Your life can be so much worse.”<\/em><\/p>\n Date of Birth:<\/strong> August 11, 1897<\/p>\n Profession:<\/strong> Writer<\/p>\n Famous Quote:<\/strong> “I am not really much interested in talking to adults, although I suppose practically every mother in the kingdom knows my name and my books.

I’ve got two boys helping.”<\/em><\/p>\n Date of Birth:<\/strong> August 20, 1992<\/p>\n Profession:<\/strong> Singer, Songwriter, Actress<\/p>\n Famous Quote:<\/strong> “I believe in aliens.
