Cuff Quotes

(his speech after winning a Golden Globe for "House M.D." (2004)) I am absolutely speechless. Seriously, I don`t have a speech.

I picked out the diamond cuff and the hair clip, and then they showed me the most gorgeous pair of earrings I`d ever seen. It wasn`t until I came to try them on that I realized they`d forgotten I didn`t have pierced ears. They could see how much I loved them, and how disappointed I was that I couldn`t wear them, so they said that, if I really wanted to, they could pierce my ears for me there and then. That would give them enough time to heal before the ceremony, and I could then wear the earrings. And I really did want to wear those earrings, so I said `OK`, and they pierced my ears for me before I left the boutique. It felt a bit odd to have them done, although I did have them pierced for a couple of weeks a few years back for a movie I was in, but it was worth it because I knew it meant I`d be wearing those fabulous earrings to the ceremony."
