Quotable Oscars, 2015 edition

Some memorable quotes from the 87th Academy Awards:

Best supporting actor Oscar winner JK Simmons, in his acceptance speech: “If you are lucky enough to have a parent or two alive on this planet, call them. Don’t text, don’t e-mail. Call them on the phone.”

Graham Moore, winner of the best adapted screenplay for “The Imitation Game”: “Stay weird. Stay different and when it’s your turn and you are standing on this stage, please pass the same message to the next person who comes along.” (The screenwriter explained that he tried to commit suicide at 16 because he “felt weird.”) AFP
