means the tones that you can capture from highlights to dark and the bits, the depth of color that you can capture. Emmanuel Lubezki The butcher, baker, and candlestick maker have been around a lot longer than supermarkets and Wal-Mart. Joel Salatin If I'd been offered 'Spider-Man,' I probably would have done it. I don't think it's bad to go and do those things. Ben Wheatley We do not just fear our predators, we are transfixed by them. We are prone to weave stories and fables and chat endlessly about them. Peter Benchley It's true, I used to be so shy. I used to never talk, just sit back and do my thing. I was never bullied, though, and it was never like it was something that needed to be 'fixed', like being shy is a bad thing. Kendall Jenner One of my favorite films is 'Late Spring' by Yasujiro Ozu. To me, it represents film as art. Michael Arndt 'I Want To Hold Your Hand' is a great classic by Paul McCartney and John L...

a suggestion and you improv your way through things. Kevin Dunn Any fiction writer who assumes that a character is typical no doubt runs the risk of stumbling into cliche and stereotype. Alice McDermott Vacuuming is great. I do the laundry. I love washing machines. I'm the maid in my house. Denis Leary Error is part of the game. I never, ever second-guessed myself on a call and don't believe good umpires ever should.

Matt Mullenweg The force that keeps the planets revolving around the sun would be glad to handle the circumstances of your life, if only you would ask him to. Marianne Williamson I'm moved by a lot of different kinds of music, whether it's pop music or R&B or straight-ahead jazz or free or opera or music from all parts of the world. David Sanborn Tons of comedians have said, ...

it was the focus of my day. Four B&B owners go to each other's B&Bs, have a meal and stay over, and then pay what they think the room was worth. At the end of the week, they sit down together and open each other's envelopes, and they all start rowing. Kimberley Nixon I realised that if I wished to write about the dark and not allow for hope, people would recognise it as false - because hope is the nub of what we are. Richard Flanagan When you have so many things, and you have no idea why, you think, 'Maybe I'm supposed to do things for other people.' Nikki Sixx My mom has always been kind of my backbone. She keeps me strong. She is a mother, a friend. She is really everything to me. Aerin Lauder We have people in our lives who help us evolve along the way. If you're lucky, you find someone who evolves along with you, and that's what you call a long-term relationship. Richard LaGravenese Carl Icahn, corporate raider by trade, is creativ...

at the Cannes film festival, and people were booing afterwards.

Najib Razak Negative emotions like hatred destroy our peace of mind. Matthieu Ricard I majored in criminal justice. I like 'CSI,' all that, '24.' I watch those shows on A&E, if I watch TV. I don't really watch TV shows. ...

work at your laboratory - what's going on, what the opportunities are there - you talk about your own research. Frank Press In the adversity of our best friends we often find something that does not displease us. Brigham Young Sound science must be our guide in choosing which problems to tackle and how to approach them.

Malcolm de Chazal I really wanted the MTV Award the most, It was a golden popcorn container and it looks really neat. Kirsten Dunst The only actress they didn't test was Garbo. Must have been her accent. Judy Holliday If civilians are going to be killed, I would rather have them be their civilians than our civilians. Stuart Symington

of riff on 24 Hours of Le Mans. It's a poor man's weekend warrior racer event.

Jeff Fortenberry I don't see many explosions or ten-car crashes in the course of my life, so I don't put them into my movies. I would love to live in a society where 'My Dinner with Andre' made $100,000,000. Then I would be in the mainstream. I could do that stuff easier than I could do 'Meatballs.'

Herbert Hoover ISIL struck France because it is 'free' and 'the nation of human rights'. This is not a...

breakthrough product. I'll take it a step further. It has to be a radical product. It has to be something where, when people look at it, at first they say, 'I don't get it, I don't understand it. I think it's too weird, I think it's too unusual.' Marc Andreessen I try to make my bed every day for mental health. Coming home to an unmade bed or a room with clothes all over will depress me. David Alan Grier Cookbooks have all become baroque and very predictable. I'm looking for something different. A lot of chefs' cookbooks are food as it's done in the restaurants, but they are dumbed down, and I hate it when they dumb them down. Mario Batali I'm not even sure that any of us are ever ready for anything. We can be ripe, or over-ready, but what is that moment when we're actually ready?

D'Arcy Carden Effective cybersecurity policy will depend on active and continued collaboration between public and private sectors.

Rapid growth is a sign of our success, but it also puts stress on housing, infrastructure - and on communities. Sadiq Khan What I tell myself is that there is never going to be another 'Gone Girl' for me. I mean, I really believe that. I think I'll write other good books; I have faith in that. Gilli...

method; it was a safe place to practice. So acting school was about exercising that acting muscle and doing it every single day - and having people tell you that you're bad every single day! Which pushes you to work even harder. Jane Levy I gave up writing for seven years (very biblical) and picked it up again, still clueless and still seeking the exotic, when I was twenty-one. David Bergen I like a lot of sports. Especially football - it's my favourite sport. My uncle played football in Barcelona for nine years and played for Spain in three World Cups. Rafael Nadal Not in our make-up, to be sure - not in the pose which is preceded by the tantaras of a trumpet - do the essential traits in our character first reveal themselves. But truly in the little things the real self is exteriorised. Ameen Rihani Since I was a kid, music was what I wanted to do. I thought I could make it by my own talents. That's what I wanted to prove. Willie Nelson I was never in the bu...

  artisanal designer and manufacturer of electric cars, and its CEO is one of the few business leaders alive for whom the label 'visionary' isn't hyperbolic. Adam Lashinsky I did 'Christmas Carol' off and on through my teenage years, so I always had that dialect and that sound in my ear, which was so helpful. It became second nature. Dan Amboyer I grew up around electronic instruments. To me, the turntable is an electronic device. At the same time, I had access to drum machines and keyboards through my uncle; then track recorders into computers. At an early age, I was messing with computers more than most hip-hop musicians. Ali Shaheed Muhammad When I graduated from Brown, I had a very limited conception of jobs, careers, and what I wanted to do. Basically, I figured I should do some kind of thought work that paid well, but I wasn't sure what. Andrew Yang From day one, we've always gotten backlash for certain outlandish ideas that we've had and presented...
