screen shooting, so even Hangover II in Bangkok might seem like it's expensive, you're flying over and back, but they're just not that expensive to make when you do it the way we do it which is very focused and I've done it before. Todd Phillips In 2010, my two Harvard mathematician colleagues and I dismantled kin-selection theory, which was the reigning theory of the origin of altruism at the time. E. O. Wilson This nation is like a spring freshet; it overruns its banks and destroys all who are in its path. Sitting Bull I'm the most low-maintenance person on the road. Lee Ann Womack I have to convince myself I know what I'm doing. Joe Namath I was an expert horseman. Harry Carey, Jr. Conservation is a state of harmony between men and land. Aldo Leopold I have spoken to a whole group of millionaires, head executives at Microsoft. Boy did I chew those guys out. Jack LaLanne Violence was almost an aphrodisiac for me. Woody Harrelson Any

in every place. You see it when ball players jump up and down, gather at home plate, hugging, and it's not just because they're winning, it's that shared moment, that feeling of - we enter the world alone, we leave alone. Peter Guber I don't care what people say about me. Roger Daltrey I don't really comment on my personal life because I feel like any comment at all is opening up a whole can of worms. I'd just rather not talk about who I'm dating. Josh Hartnett I think a primal role of a man in a relationship is to protect his woman. Armie Hammer This brought on the news media, TV crews, interviews, and numerous public appearances. Ryan White It's very hard to write humor. Mark Strand Military commanders do not want to be tried for war crimes, even if those crimes are committed online. Evgeny Morozov We always may be what we might have been. Adelaide Anne Procter I will never regret not denouncing apartheid. Zola Budd American

immersive experience and an audience experience. There's nothing like seeing a film with 500 people in a theater. And there's something about putting on 3-D glasses that makes it a very singular experience for me. Suddenly I'm not connected to the audience anymore. Todd Phillips If my life were a song the title would be 'The Comeback Kid.' Stefano Langone I like the Rolling Stones for karaoke. 'Sympathy For The Devil' is a great one. Hugh Jackman There is no question that global warming will have a significant impact on already existing problems such as malaria, malnutrition, and water shortages. But this doesn't mean the best way to solve them is to cut carbon emissions. Bjorn Lomborg White people use their literature to maintain culture. That's why you find references to Milton and Spencer and Shakespeare and Dostoyevsky in contemporary novels. Ntozake Shange So the English approach to show business and their work is more - and this

me out of my comfort zone? Am I doing something different? Am I working with people who are passionate about what they're doing?' At the end of the day, if I'm going to be bored on set, then I'm not gonna be happy. Amanda Crew I am looking forward to being part of the E! team. This unique opportunity allows my company to take the next step in providing multimedia content. Ryan Seacrest You know, a song is like a kid. You bring it up. And sometimes something you thought was going to be fantastic, by the time it's finished, is a bit of a disappointment. Phil Collins I really just dabble in music; I really just did a few albums for my fans. Claudia Christian In life go straight and turn right. Salman Khan Enjoy present pleasures in such a way as not to injure future ones. Seneca I always sleep on my own. I can't sleep with somebody else. Always separate bedrooms, bathrooms and closets. I'm very individual and I want my own space. Bruno Toniol

deductible, which I do, including dental, and paid pregnancy leave. That's not called capitalism, that's called being a Christian and someone who believes in democracy, so that everyone should get a fair slice of the pie. Michael Moore I'm just selfish. I have to be for what I do. Shia LaBeouf Marble is not alike in all countries. Vitruvius I really don't care what people say. It's amazing that feminism continues to exist at all, considering how much counter-feminism is out there. Nellie McKay I had this bad-boy-from-New York vibe going, dressed like a punk rocker with spiky hair. Robert Downey, Jr. There is a reason it used to be a crime in the Confederate states to teach a slave to read: Literacy is power. Matt Taibbi I used to say I would never run unless I was being chased by someone with a gun. Now I'm a little obsessed with it! Rachael Ray I think it's the broadest source of dissatisfaction amongst Republicans, out-of-control spend

to watch 'Saturday Night Live' and 'Kids in the Hall,' and things like that. Very early on, my parents realized that I was not going to be an engineer or a doctor. I just don't have those inclinations, at all. Mindy Kaling We women. as glue for the family. lead lives that are important and conflicted. What we women choose to give up for our families is important and valid. Kristin Hannah Christmas renews our youth by stirring our wonder. The capacity for wonder has been called our most pregnant human faculty, for in it are born our art, our science, our religion. Ralph W. Sockman I have always loved reading, so was interested in the literary world, and took many literary portraits. Fay Godwin I think in any writing you're paying attention to detail. Peter Matthiessen Being a good actor isn't easy. Being a man is even harder. I want to be both before I'm done. James Dean Beauty is not something you can count on. Usually, when people say

me and 40 women! And I'm sitting back there, learning payroll, because I want to understand it. So that when I talk to people about payroll I know what they're talking about. And I set up and managed and ran a full payroll system myself. David Perry My dad played fiddle as well. Robert Plant If what you have done yesterday still looks big to you, you haven't done much today. Mikhail Gorbachev The assertion of failure coming from such persons does not mean that Mr. Mill failed to promote the practical success of those objects the advocacy of which forms the chief feature of his political writings. Millicent Fawcett Love can no more continue without a constant motion than fire can; and when once you take hope and fear away, you take from it its very life and being. Francois de La Rochefoucauld Do not sit next to my mother when she is watching one of her children compete because you will have fingernails down your back. She is a nervous wreck. Diana Lopez I w

'The Good Guy' is all about Wall Street and that culture, which 'How To Make It' touches on, but 'How To Make It' also is downtown, Lower East Side loft parties, cool clubs, Brooklyn and that world. Bryan Greenberg Growing up in a Canadian household that was more British than Big Ben, I dreamed of flying to England myself and visiting the places my family never tired of talking about. I always woke up before the plane landed. Alan Bradley Some people call God, some people call Allah; I want to see the fruit of the love, I want to see the love, the love to help the brothers who may not be as fortunate as us. MC Hammer It always helps me connect with characters, to think about what music they respond to. Charles Frazier Adam Lambert is one of my best friends. I've known him since he was an understudy in 'Wicked.' Such a doll. Alessandra Torresani No one should be left to suffer alone. Daisaku Ikeda Television and movies have short-cir

to sing really weird pop songs about lust and loneliness in the big city. They're low-pro now, not retro-worshipped in the manner of Depeche Mode, New Order, or The Cure, but you can hear the reason why - these guys are too sad. Rob Sheffield Vietnam was the first time that Americans of different races had to depend on each other. In the Second World War, they were segregated; it was in Vietnam that American integration happened in the military - and it wasn't easy. Karl Marlantes I believe in Ronald Reagan's 11th commandment, thou shall not speak unfavorably of another Republican. Renee Ellmers Persecution is not an original feature in any religion; but it is always the strongly marked feature of all religions established by law. Thomas Paine When I wasn't famous, I had a lot of friends, almost all of them Italian. The racism only started when I started to play football. Mario Balotelli I never record anything like a demo, I just go for it. Nuno Bettenc

man walking street-side, to protect the lady from traffic. I grew up with that, and I hate to see something like that get lost. I still like to see that a man opens the door. I like those touches of chivalry that are fast disappearing. Betty White You can stay in therapy your whole life, but you've got to live life and not talk about life. Tracey Gold I do see value in music criticism. Most of the criticism I have received over the years has been very good. Van Morrison I am very proud of being the one to have coined the word. George Weinberg For us to grow globally, it's not enough to just be an exporter. We have to be a creator. Bob Iger I love having a master. I have no problem serving my director. That's my job. I want to make them happy. Joaquin Phoenix We don't have real hours and we don't have a boss, so artists create rules for themselves that they then break. It's transgressive in such a personal way. Laurie Simmons I wouldn't d

younger aspiring actors. Work onstage and do the little roles. In the end it's not important to be seen. It's important to do. There's a lot of disappointment in this business, but my family keeps me grounded. Kristen Bell I think fear is one of the natural states of most actors, to be honest. James McAvoy Dickens is a very underrated writer at the moment. Everyone in his time admired him but I think right now he's not spoken of enough. Anne Rice For me, you have to not have a formula. You have to not even sit down and say, 'I want to write right now.' It has to just kind of come out. It's not something you can plan. Chris Daughtry It's a great beauty tip, if you ever want to look five years younger, to shave off your eyebrows. It's amazing what it does. It really shaves off the years. Malin Akerman Theatre is about people, not buildings. Incalculable damage has been done to the expert talent a company needs - from wardrobe to lighting

Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty that many other states undertook, which was to work towards disarmament and the eventual elimination of nuclear weapons, is something that manifestly serves our national security interests. Susan Rice We had periodic crises in this country when the technical intelligence didn't support the policy. We had the bomber gap, the missile gap. Aldrich Ames Transitioning to being an unemployed film actor is different, but it's fun and I've been looking forward to it for a while. Adam Brody If you assume that it was a valid experiment, then its disintegration reveals a very substantial part of what has been found since then, including the fact that you can get heat generation at high temperature. Martin Fleischmann I've always thought Prince Charming in 'Cinderella' was the most boring role; I'd rather be the Wicked Witch. Jude Law If you're going to get into social criticism with absurdity and satire, you can't

If you get people diving on a coral reef, they're going to become more respectful of the outdoors and more concerned with the threats that places like that face and they're going to care more about protecting them than they would have before. Tim Cahill Love is often the fruit of marriage. Moliere It feels good to have your work respected again. Eminem It is impossible for emotion not to come on us in thinking of that time now flowed away. Paul Cezanne I just worry because I know I say a lot, often. It doesn't bother me, it's more about the people that get affected around me. Sienna Miller I don't watch a lot of the games on Sunday. But I always kept an eye on the 49ers. Joe Montana When you're fighting for social justice, one of my biggest pet peeves is speaking out of ignorance. Eva Longoria Government is either organized benevolence or organized madness; its peculiar magnitude permits no shading. John Updike I know there's life aft

at all level have revenues to do the things that they need to do. And that's why it's so important to get this economy moving, to get jobs created. We can't keep going on with this anemic recovery. Jim Talent I don't like traveling, period. I like being at places and I like going places, but I don't like forms of transportation. Travis Barker I think people are going to have a choice to make in the fall. But I think there's no doubt there are enough seats in play that could cause Republicans to gain control. There's no doubt about that. Robert Gibbs I am not the worst singer. William Hung Many great stories are father issues, mother issues or death. Kathleen Kennedy A sea setting us upon the ice has brought us close to danger. Henry Hudson Do what you love and the necessary resources will follow. Peter McWilliams The biographer has two lives: The one she leads, and the one she ultimately understands. Stacy Schiff But I felt that most

cultural opportunities. Perhaps this comes from growing up in suburbia. Home is where you eat, sleep, read, watch television and ignore your parents. It is not where you go to the ballet and then attend a heated panel discussion about it afterwards. Sloane Crosley I was so focused at 21, maybe to my own detriment because I didn't allow myself to have fun. I was constantly looking for the next audition and working to pay the bills. Jayma Mays I don't think in words; I think in pictures, in images. Lance Henriksen But that's something that I like about scoring film: it makes me reach out of the parameters of my self, it requires me to do things musically that I wouldn't normally do left to my own devices. Jim Coleman I think the whole, like, cultural diversity and the arty side of London is really, really great. And how it's so historic as well. Lily Allen I love an old-school gentleman. Picking me up for dates, sending flowers, holding the door open, I

that people are actually willing to tell you things. When I went to Novell, I didn't know how to be a CEO, so I went in and I called all sorts of CEOs I knew. I called in a favor. I wanted to come by and listen to them tell me what it's like to be a CEO. Eric Schmidt What kind of people do they think we are? Is it possible they do not realize that we shall never cease to persevere against them until they have been taught a lesson which they and the world will never forget? Winston Churchill I love pink, it's so girly! Ashley Tisdale One of the first bills I helped passed was the Shore Protection Fund, which provides a stable source of funding for shore protection, something very important for Monmouth County and the entire Jersey Shore. Joseph M. Kyrillos Now, America is a land of second chances, and I gather you have room for the estimated 6 million of us who know we got it wrong in 2008 and who want to fix it. Artur Davis The Bible is the only credible guid

started with them in 1968. They used it as the first resort, not the last resort. They invented it, they perfected it, they benefited from it and they taught the world how to use it and that it would be successful. Alan Dershowitz My view is that you don't tell the universe what to do. The universe is how it is, and it's our job to figure it out. Brian Greene Music is my life, it is a reflection of what I go through. Lenny Kravitz I have done my duty by the laws of my people and I am sorry my people were led this time by men who were not soldiers and that crimes were committed of which I had no knowledge. Ernst Kaltenbrunner The truth is that our way of celebrating the Christmas season does spring from myriad cultures and sources, from St. Nicholas to Coca-Cola advertising campaigns. Richard Roeper If I lost my job, I'd get a job at McDonald's. Robert Kiyosaki The best revenge is massive success. Frank Sinatra Palin seems to have forgotten that her

share. And when your country is in a costly war, with our soldiers sacrificing abroad and our nation facing a debt crisis at home, being asked to pay your fair share isn't class warfare - it's patriotism. Cory Booker I do think a key to success in any walk of life is having a short memory and a thick skin - I know it has served me well over the years. Aubrey McClendon As a nonparent, I stand in awe of parents. Philip Yancey I would never have been a good scientist - my attention span was too short for that. Octavia Butler Usually I am on a work for a long stretch, until a moment arrives when the air of the arbitrary vanishes, and the paint falls into positions that feel destined. Philip Guston My mother is an actress, and she used to drag me from theater to theater and reading to reading. Alicia Keys Many people mistakenly think a new technology cancels out an old one. Judith Martin It's important to be able to keep things fresh, no matter what age you

today go in without a clue and graduate without a clue. It's time to acknowledge the college degree is not worth what it was in the past. Times are changing, and so is the way we prepare our youth to survive in a competitive world. Dale Archer Being a good observer is a great tool to have as a writer, just taking the world in. Lauren Conrad I don't like trends. They tend to make everybody look the same. Carolina Herrera I want to be remembered as an actor who put in some good work in the beginning of his career, even better work at the end of his career and slowly, successfully made the transition into writing and directing. Jonathan Brandis We really have to be willing to find out who we are instead of rebelling for the equal rights that we've been denied, that we do deserve. Andrew Cohen That's my ambition: that you look at the pictures and realize what complex, fascinating, interesting people every single one of my subjects is. Jock Sturges I have n

of took effect on me. I was about four years old - obviously wasn't supposed to be seeing that film; my sister kind of sneaked it out and we got to see it. She's older than me. That was something I always used to watch. Aaron Johnson Animators have to live life 24 times as long as we do - every 24 frames of a second. Darren Aronofsky I'm not interested in more money for the sake of it. Kevin Whately You play your character and it isn't right to step out of it. You have to stay in that character. Robert Goulet Memory is funny. Once you hit a vein the problem is not how to remember but how to control the flow. Tobias Wolff With two leftover husbands to account for, my wicked soul has just about shriveled and died. Mercedes McCambridge Young writers should definitely research the current sounds and styles. Lamont Dozier Reese Witherspoon is as cute as a button on Raggedy Ann's overalls, but irresistible raw sex appeal is not one of her qualities.

happens, this happens', whereas with literary writers it's coming from their soul and their core. But with me it does come from my soul and my core, and my soul and my core often go AWOL, and then I've nothing to write. Marian Keyes People want athletes to cater to their image of what an athlete should be, but they also want them to fail so they can feel like their screwups are all right. If I make a priority shift, I'll make it because it's best for me. Bode Miller I'm growing as an individual, but your always growing. All of my albums are snapshots of where I am artistically. Mos Def My family has reduced the effect of my career on my self-esteem. When I'm with them, they make me feel special regardless of how I play. Phil Mickelson I can read people, and if the other person doesn't want to say anything, I'm fine with that. People say things when it's time to say them. Aidan Gillen I am an optimist because I want to change things

moments. When you're not playing, you miss out on all the highs, but you also miss these disappointments. But I would rather be in the arena to be excited or be disappointed than not have a chance at all. That's football. That's why everybody plays it. Peyton Manning People always come up to me and say, Oh, you're Chloe Se-VIG-ny, right? Sevigny. Number seven, letter e. Chloe Sevigny I wouldn't know how to write a weak female character. I read so much epic fantasy growing up, where you have these sword-wielding, in-your-face warrior maidens. Richelle Mead I loved Martin Luther King more than a brother. Ralph Abernathy In the NFL, every practice could make or break you. If you dropped one ball, you'd worry about getting cut. Darren Flutie I know that for me I have to get out of the way and let God take control. Sherri Shepherd Nobody wants a political prisoner, but a political emigrant is no problem. Alexei Navalny I need to be thinking about

the 'underground economy.' All this stuff that on the surface creates growth and profit, ends up with waste, junk, and CO2. So how do you make it economic to bring new players into the ball game? Peter Senge Mother's taste was eclectic and ranged from the ancient world to the contemporary from Europe to the U.S. David Rockefeller I like the privacy of my life and I protect it quite vigilantly. Nicole Kidman People love that you're human and that we're frail and we face the same situations. Honesty tends to communicate with people better than standing up there like you have an 'S' on your chest. TobyMac Usually, if I think something is really funny, I'm not gonna test it. I'll just test it when I'm onstage. Donald Glover I put headlights in Ford vans. I still drive a Ford. James McBride I had Elvis' number in my book and I never called it. Mac Davis I believe I was extremely greedy. Andrew Fastow I've thought Cheney

restaurants that much. I use it for social issues and I think that's what it's for. I do a few things - I mess around with music a lot because that's a passion of mine. If something strikes me and I want to share it, I do. Tom Colicchio Despite not looking like a matinee idol, I feel like I have a lot to give. I've never had any trouble with women. People are always surprised with the romantic aspect of my movies. John C. Reilly In appearance the labor system of all the colonies was the same. Albert Bushnell Hart Novels are a kind of experiment in selfhood, for the reader as well as for the author. Jonathan Dee Men and women have roles - their roles are different, but their rights are equal. Harri Holkeri One of the biggest things you have is your reputation and your reputation with knowing what's good and what's not good. Paul Feig Your weak point is the open, vulnerable place where you can always be hurt. Love, in all its aspects, opens the s

clots or falls in hospital, emergency readmissions and pressure sores cost the NHS billions of pounds every year. There is a serious human cost, too, with patients ending up injured, or even dead. Most are avoidable with the right care. Andrew Lansley It's tragic that you can define a whole movement in music by gender alone. People are like, 'Oh, look, another quirky girl.' Paloma Faith But, as always, Mr. Rooney would come over and shake your hand and congratulate you on a good game, no matter what the situation was. Franco Harris I'm an intuitive musician. I have no real technical skills. I can only play six chords on the guitar. Patti Smith Ali... we should have gone to see that movie. Malcolm X was another one. Cicely Tyson I was a healthy young man, and I thought I was invincible before I was diagnosed with kidney disease. Sean Elliott A lot of child soldiers lose their minds. Emmanuel Jal The jobs I enjoy most are the ones where I never feel l

that it's a threat. Because I'm right, and there cannot be two ways that are right, so if I'm right, anything different than this must be wrong; and we attack those things and it's really due to insecurity, ego and fear. Radhanath Swami The Beatles are the most credible band in the history of music. Ryan Tedder Naturally, my body language changes given whatever environment I'm in. Christina Ricci To put on a corset properly is as much of an art as to make a corset properly. Anna Held Reality seems valueless by comparison with the dreams of fevered imaginations; reality is therefore abandoned. Emile Durkheim I think the first thing I did was several scenes from Romeo and Juliet. Sally Field If a theme or idea is too near the surface, the novel becomes simply a tract illustrating an idea. Elizabeth Bowen I do not know it all and do not claim to. David Pratt Never pretend to a love which you do not actually feel, for love is not ours to command.

deal with labels to make something happen. If I want to meet someone, I don't have to go through the label - I'll just go to them. I took my life in my hands and social media has just helped me do that more. Imogen Heap I absolutely want to have a career where you make'em laugh and make'em cry. It's all theater. Jim Carrey Alcoholism is a genetically predisposed disease and it does run in my family. I also think I felt like a misfit. I was in the South, everybody was blonde. I just didn't feel like I fitted in. It was sort of my way of fitting. Kristin Davis You have to keep your sanity as well as know how to distance yourself from it while still holding onto the reins tightly. That is a very difficult thing to do, but I'm learning. Diahann Carroll So many girls and guys want to find a girlfriend and settle down. But it's fun to be single. Brody Jenner Sometimes I forget how much people look at you as their hero. I forget that. Matt Kemp

his unwed sisters, Morandi painted little but bottles, boxes, jars, and vases. Yet like that of Chardin and the underappreciated William Nicholson, Morandi's work seems to slow down time and show you things you've never seen before. Jerry Saltz I think the American university system still seems to be the best system in the world. Clifford Geertz I'm not comfortable with just entertaining. Although I like entertaining, I also like bringing forward the truth of our times as minstrels used to in the old days. Serj Tankian The challenge of screenwriting is to say much in little and then take half of that little out and still preserve an effect of leisure and natural movement. Raymond Chandler I'm really interested in stories about identity - who I am now versus who I used to be. Seth Gordon I'm not focused on what other people think of me. Cate Blanchett Our new world rests on order. The danger is disorder. And in today's world, it can now spread l

what my doctors tell me to do - get my blood checked regularly, take my meds and consult with my doctor and follow any additional instructions he might make - I will be able to maintain my good health and live my life with a minimum of disruptions to my lifestyle. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar My mother danced; she loved the ballet. Stefanie Powers Members of royal families are born into a world of indulgence and entitlement, and the princelings who grow up that way may never have to develop the emotional musculature that will allow them to show self-restraint. Jeffrey Kluger The law condemns the best of us; but grace saves the worst of us. Joseph Prince The research phase was really fascinating - I'm not a closeted nerd, I'm an out-of-the-closet nerd. Natalie Merchant I have a genuine love affair with my audience. When I'm on stage they're not privileged to see me. It's a privilege for me to see them. Ozzy Osbourne One sometimes finds what one is not lookin

actually a green screen movie, it's like doing independent New York theater because you don't have any backgrounds or props. So it's kind of like making the lowest budgeted film you could possibly imagine, plus $100 million. Emile Hirsch I developed a resistance to authority. Not to discipline - I learned that. But to authority. I like to think for myself. And I like to cause trouble. Hal Holbrook Nothing that comes from the deep, passional soul is bad, or can be bad. D. H. Lawrence I wrote my first sucio story, as I call them, in 1997. This was always my 'cheater's book,' my book about sucios desgraciados. My plan was to write a book about how people deal with love and loss. Junot Diaz We need to eat and enjoy it but control it. That's what I do now. Carnie Wilson My mom was a '70s mom. She paved a road that no one had yet walked. Melissa Leo Do not rely completely on any other human being, however dear. We meet all life's greatest

organization that is at war with the United States. Any American who did that should know well that they in fact are part of an enemy... and that the U.S. will do anything that is possible to destroy that enemy to save American lives. John O. Brennan With acting, you see some of the kids are literally just off the street, untrained, and they are great. And others are off the street, untrained, and kind of horrible. Patton Oswalt I don't think of myself as a powerful person. Anna Wintour I've got stuff about airline mergers, which just shows that my stand-up is getting more insane by the minute. Lewis Black I'm not the fastest writer. I can't just crank out ideas that are good enough. Amy Lee A lot of girls think they have flaws that really aren't flaws. I've never met a girl who was just so secure about everything. Kellan Lutz The joy of life is in the work. John Lydon I don't despise people. will.i.am I have a Twitter, but I'm no

it is only the political class that derives its power by creating friction. It is only the media that derives its importance by creating friction... that uses every little thing to create this chasm between people. This is not who we are. Ben Carson It's hard to make something collaboratively. That's the challenge. Sometimes you're successful. Marguerite Moreau I am thrilled to be able to bring my vision of beauty to others who may be inspired by it. Carol Alt When the impulses which stir us to profound emotion are integrated with the medium of expression, every interview of the soul may become art. This is contingent upon mastery of the medium. Hans Hofmann You can find inspiration when you're not even looking for it. Judy Woodruff I'm a Brooklyn boy. I was born in Brooklyn, New York, and raised there, and spent most of my childhood there. Robert Jay Lifton Sin cannot be conceived in a natural state, but only in a civil state, where it is decreed

singing it from a subconscious, kind of chameleon little lizard mind... and at a certain moment, all of a sudden, I'll hear a line from a different vantage point and it'll change its meaning. It's something I wrote but it changed because I did. Feist We are hopeful about the opportunities ahead, and stand ready to join this President in an open and honest dialogue about improving the state of our union for all Americans not the select few. Jim Clyburn I always had the idea that I wanted to perform. I love being the center of attention - and I always love talking about myself. Jamie Campbell Bower My aunty says I'm the double of my father. He was a workaholic, which I've definitely inherited. And like me, he could be the life and soul of the party, but also quite withdrawn. Alastair Campbell How can you beat someone that's already lost everything? Eddie Guerrero There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remov

putting all this money to create arms, I think countries should invest in scholarships for kids to study abroad. Perhaps they could become good and knowledgeable professors in their own countries. You need time for that kind of change, though. Marjane Satrapi My memorization skills aren't that great so I need help in that area. As far as everything else, I listen to the director. I'm someone who doesn't argue. I hit my marks and say the lines. Robert Morse I got very carried away with my 'Harry Potter' life and we did have school but I didn't study. I just had fun. Evanna Lynch 'Step Brothers' itself, when I did it, I don't know if I had any idea that it would become a defining moment in my career and life like it has, and I'm really happy that that's the one that ended up being that for me. Adam Scott I don't really like labels in politics, but I will gladly accept the label of conservatism. Marco Rubio If Uncle Martin wer

to American country music and rock n' roll made between 1955 and 1959. The Everly Brothers and Chuck Berry were my first musical loves and are still what I am most moved by. Roy Orbison came a little bit later. Teddy Thompson There's so many other things to write about than unrequited love. Lucinda Williams Mankind advances only through struggle. Gustav Stresemann Everything that I've ever been able to accomplish in skating and in life has come out of adversity and perseverance. Scott Hamilton We sunk everything into it. It came close to going under several times. Heston Blumenthal Rid yourself of anything that is not directed toward God. Johannes Tauler I don't want to live in a bubble, in my craft or in the world... I can't, I would be cheating myself out of my generation and the world we live in. Diane Lane True courage is being afraid, and going ahead and doing your job anyhow, that's what courage is. Norman Schwarzkopf I don't ha

side of Mitt, and know us in a different reflection when you see the family and how funny he is with the boys and with the grandkids. And you know, just what a super guy he is. That's part of what I am doing, is letting people see the other side of Mitt. Ann Romney People's minds are overloaded with information. Allen Leech We need to keep hope alive and strive to do better. Kofi Annan The true worth of a race must be measured by the character of its womanhood. Mary McLeod Bethune If you don't accept failure as a possibility, you don't set high goals, you don't branch out, you don't try - you don't take the risk. Rosalynn Carter No love is entirely without worth, even when the frivolous calls to the frivolous and the base to the base. Iris Murdoch Intellectual comradeship requires that you think your thoughts through to the place where you can make the complex seem simple, the obscure quite clear. David Seabury I went on countless auditi

too young to read them, despite parents insisting that dear Octavia has a reading age of 28. I remember trying to read 'In Cold Blood' at the age of twelve, and realising that just because you can read book doesn't mean you should. Meg Rosoff Well, Grover Washington was my main influence and when I went to college, I started listening to more of the jazz masters like Sonny Rollins, Cannonball Adderley, and John Coltrane. Kenny G Any parent knows how to be the ideal parent. Emma Donoghue When you play against different people from all walks of life you can't do the same thing against every player defensively or offensively. You have to change up the way you go at a player. Oscar Robertson I think the truth is black-and-white. Nancy Grace Of all afflictions, the worst is self-contempt. Berthold Auerbach I think that's a hallmark of a really good story that it has readers that it speaks to more than others. Erin Morgenstern Everything the human bei

wisdom based on direct experience of natural phenomena; but it needs to be dealt with skeptically as a credible system of thought. Some feng-shui prescriptions can certainly lead to desirable results. Martin Filler Life is too short to be doing work that doesn't make you feel happy and fulfilled. I'd rather wait for the right project, as opposed to just taking whatever is handed to me. Amanda Crew I felt like a number of things in me as a writer just clicked. Daniel Woodrell For me, clothes are about individuality. When I wear things that are different and it works, it makes me feel good. Saoirse Ronan Funding for sports (and the arts) are often the first things facing the chop in difficult times. Lucy Powell Stem cells are probably going to be extremely useful. Joseph Murray My readers - and I get 400 emails for a day, my readers normally they say, well, you understand me, and I answer, you do understand me also. We are in the same level. Paulo Coelho As s

life of the program by eight years. And what Governor Romney and Congressman Ryan won't admit is that their plan would require current seniors to pay, on average, $600 more each year for prescription drugs. Debbie Wasserman Schultz Especially in the realm of bringing an opportunity to do something creative to people, as I said, who wouldn't ordinarily have that opportunity. I think that's very important. Phil Lesh Every once in a while I get the highly inappropriate proposal which is like, 'Wow, Really! You don't even know me and I don't know you at all, and you want that to happen? Tonight? Ok, I get off work at 7.30.' Dwayne Johnson You can never be guaranteed good roles because of an award, but I think your profile and net worth as a performer has to do with awards, unfortunately. Minnie Driver Probably the most difficult things were my favorite parts. The make-up and the big fight sequence at the end of the movie were very difficult but reall

15 hours a year, buying stuff. I'll go in and out of Dunhill in 45 minutes and pick out a few suits. Boom. And I'm gone. I get my shirts at Charvet. I go in there - woosh - and buy 12 shirts and some ties; once a year and that's it. Edward N. Ney I wasn't real quick, and I wasn't real strong. Some guys will just take off and it's like, whoa. So I beat them with my mind and my fundamentals. Larry Bird I want to let fans know how much I appreciate them and how much I appreciate them showing interest in our music and me personally. Randy Houser Groups are grammatical fictions; only individuals exist, and each individual is different. Robert Anton Wilson Hollywood likes to label everyone so you're easier to identify. Katherine Heigl Ridicule is the tribute paid to the genius by the mediocrities. Oscar Wilde To win you have to score one more goal than your opponent. Johan Cruyff Our free enterprise system of disseminating information is colle

I have my long chic hair that I wear to my son's school so they know I'm not playing around. I always tell people that my husband gets a different woman every night when I come home from 'The View.' Hair makes you feel a certain way, like putting a power suit on. Sherri Shepherd I've always been proud of the fact that I can hold it together and I rarely break. It's a point of pride for me. Justin Long You'd think experienced political professionals would know better than to place their trust in exit polls, notoriously inaccurate surveys that had John Kerry winning the 2004 election by five points when he actually lost by three. John Podhoretz Not born to be rich, by 1981 I had nonetheless begun to use a PC that required for its operation the absorption of several hundred pages of protocols and the placement of very large floppy disks in the freezer to fix frequent crashes. Mark Helprin This evolution may compromise Java's claim of being simpl

doubt. I get very insecure about my ideas. And I don't say 'insecure' in kind of a paranoid way. I mean just: 'Are they good enough?' 'Is this the right thing to do?' I really beat myself up over that. Bill Viola I write romance because I love to read romance. Rachel Gibson You better arm yourselves to answer your children's and grandchildren's questions... no matter what the question is... without being judgmental. Josh McDowell The formal Washington dinner party has all the spontaneity of a Japanese imperial funeral. Simon Hoggart Both my parents instilled an interest in science and mathematics. George Smoot Shakespeare, who is probably the greatest writer and poet of the English language, lived in a time that was politically very conservative and it's reflected in his writings. Alex Cox The unique nature about the influenza virus is its great potential for changes, for mutation. Margaret Chan I'm missing a knuckle, it&

rap groups that can say they have a documentary done about them, so my attitude was like, 'Shoot, why not?' I'm sure there are a lot of people that would like to take our place. I felt like we should all embrace it. Phife Dawg Most men, I am convinced, have an unmistakable feeling at the final moment of significant choice that they are making a free decision, that they can really decide which one of two or more roads to follow. Corliss Lamont I'm not playing to prove anything to anybody. Jeremy Lin I believe if a private citizen is able to affect public opinion in a constructive way he doesn't have to be an elected public servant to perform a public service. Warren Beatty I feel Irish-Americans are the forgotten minority group. Nobody else is making films about them. Edward Burns I had a whole bunch of very successful movies. I have worked with some incredible people - incredible. Andie MacDowell The key is, if you're not monkeying around with

happened when my Bobby was in his championship Little League game. He really showed me something. Struck out three times. Made an error that lost the game. Parents were throwing things at our car and swearing at us as we drove off. Gosh, I was proud. Bob Uecker Whenever you write for someone else, you're always aware - sometimes overtly, other times at an almost cellular, subliminal level - of the rules about what you can and can't do. J. Michael Straczynski As a kid I watched television 24 hours a day and loved every minute of it. The two shows that always make me laugh and are therefore my favourites are The Dick Van Dyke Show and Fawlty Towers. Colin Mochrie I can still steal a base anytime I get ready. Rickey Henderson Claude Rains was what we call an actor's actor. He was very involved with himself and his performance. Gloria Stuart It hardly seems worthwhile to point out the shortsightedness of those practitioners who would have us believe that the form

girls whose pursuit of happiness swept them outside the bounds of social decency. Tess of the d'Urbervilles, Emma Bovary and Anna Karenina lived large in my imagination. The naughty girls of Hollywood films flirted and knew how to drive. Bharati Mukherjee Each is under the most sacred obligation not to squander the material committed to him, not to sap his strength in folly and vice, and to see at the least that he delivers a product worthy the labor and cost which have been expended on him. Anna Julia Cooper I wrote 'The Zombie Survival Guide' because I wanted to read it, and nobody else was writing it. All I've been doing with everything I've written is answering questions that I had. Max Brooks My father taught me things about body language that psychologists have been catching up with ever since. He always knew when I was lying, because my posture was all wrong. Richard Griffiths I wish my mother had left me something about how she felt growing up. I

Islamic people, Islamic leaders, as either moderates or extremists. It's almost like there are only two categories of Muslims. And actually, that doesn't show respect. It shows lack of understanding of the diversity of Muslim thought. David Miliband Children who plan their own schedules and evaluate their own work build up their brains and learn to take more responsibility. Bruce Feiler I need to listen to chill music when I'm driving. It prevents road rage. Aaron Paul I was originally a painter, and I made films sort of as an extension of that, and then I started to try to make dramatic films because the early films were experimental films. Gus Van Sant I'm enjoying myself this year and for once I'm not chasing my fitness. Jamie Redknapp There's no question that photographs communicate more instantly and powerfully than words do, but if you want to communicate a complex concept clearly, you need words, too. Galen Rowell If it seems like you

pulled into limitlessness, which we all yearn for, or you can do the beauty of minutiae, the scrimshaw of tiny and precise. The sky is your ocean, and the crystal silence will uplift you like great gospel music, or Neil Young. Anne Lamott TV is not a baby sitter. Luis Guzman Obsession led me to write. It's been that way with every book I've ever written. I become completely consumed by a theme, by characters, by a desire to meet a challenge. Anne Rice I'm not terribly focused on whether I even could ever become the Leader of the Liberal Party or the Deputy Leader of the Liberal Party in the future. Alexander Downer Adversity leads us to think properly of our state, and so is most beneficial to us. Samuel Johnson We have to think outside the box, inside the Constitution, find ways to do things that will elevate our security, reduce the risk of the incidence of terrorist attack. John Ashcroft Good fiction is made of that which is real, and reality is difficu

what they were right about, they showed me a lot of things that liberals were wrong about. But at the same time, I think there are some things that liberals are right about that conservatives have trouble seeing. Jonathan Haidt I always try to work with people who are better than me, so I can learn more. Bela Fleck So long as you've got your friends about you, and a good positive attitude, you don't really have to care what everyone else thinks. Gail Porter My whole life sort of ended when my mom died. Cheryl Strayed The idea of writing songs because you're depressed and you need to communicate it somehow, that isn't really true for me. Andrew Bird The mongers brought them together upon a mutual surrender of their principles. Robert Toombs I want to express myself to feel that what I feel is real. My joy, my pain, my anger. Annabella Sciorra I'm a mom - I'm lucky if I get to shower in the morning. Luckily, nail polish stays on my toes. I'

it on the world at large - especially this world, so brutal and unjust. I cannot make these wrenching personal life and death decisions for others - nor do I believe they should be made by a church run by childless men. Julianna Baggott The elusive truth is that there is nothing stress-producing in the physical world. Things simply are. Molecules move. Light and sound appear. Andrew J. Bernstein I love being domestic: making coffee, just putting on a record, and just sitting, not doing anything. It's so great. Sharon Van Etten On the Internet, information from Indiana and India is equally cheap and easy to access. Ethan Zuckerman The soul has many motions, body one. Theodore Roethke I did think there were one or two referees who had a personal thing against me. It wasn't them versus Celtic - it was them against me! I just think they wanted to take me on. Gordon Strachan The first job of a writer is to be honest. Irvine Welsh I love to doubt as well as know.

dream about Oscar recognition or nominations. It's just beyond the dream. It's something very, very special and unique. It's the highest recognition any filmmaker could dream of. Michel Hazanavicius At 18, I felt I was too young to think about having my eggs frozen. Delta Goodrem Those whose suffering is due to love are, as we say of certain invalids, their own physicians. Marcel Proust I try to get 11 or 12 hours of sleep a night. It sounds excessive but that's really what I need. Heather Graham The best way to figure out how something works is to try to build it from scratch. Henry Markram Whenever I was with Kevin Pollak, I had to leave the room. Amanda Peet The creative principle is less about dogma and more about opening ourselves to the evolution of consciousness. Alex Grey I never met anybody in my life who says, I want to be a critic. People want to be a fireman, poet, novelist. Leslie Fiedler I'm very professional. Matthew Lewis I

in D.C. to not look at Social Security and understand that there has got to be a solution posed. We've got to take a look at it and make sure that we create a solution so our seniors aren't left out in the cold. Joe Miller The thing you don't dream about as a kid is all the peripheral stuff that comes with success. Tiger Woods In the end, we are part of this region, and we are affected by its developments. What we may do or not do in the future depends on the nature of what happens here in the region. Hassan Nasrallah You need to be in the position where it is the cost of the fuel that actually matters and not the cost of building the rocket in the first place. Elon Musk Communication is very important. And the arts do that, whether it's film or theater. Anne Archer I'm still a tomboy at heart. In high school, I was the girl in the baggy jeans and Timberlands, but I was also at the hairdresser's every week. Eve Jihan Jeffers If you're going

U2's Glastonbury performance and how everything that could have possibly gone wrong went wrong, including him ripping his trousers on stage. I think he was lunging and his trousers ripped! He was telling me how he had to find a new way of performing that didn't involve moving. Florence Welch Basically, any time you have a real life experience, that can be a song. Because no matter how crazy or weird you are, somebody's had an experience just like you, somewhere. Benny Blanco Yes, years of compromise and disappointment have added depth to my acting. Rufus Sewell People have been turned away from hospitals simply because they have no insurance. People have been put out of hospitals because they have reached the lifetime caps. Sheila Jackson Lee I am definitely a perfectionist, and I do like things a certain way. But as I have got older, I would say that I am a little bit less of a control freak. Rachel Zoe If you call attention to yourself at the expense of the

have no idea what this healthcare bill is going to do to my bottom line. I have no idea what this financial reform bill is going to do... I'm not going to step out a limb and do any of those until I know what this government is going to do to me.' Kristi Noem My experience of living with people of diverse religions and cultures taught me that one will never be at peace with the other if one is at war with oneself. Tariq Ramadan We learn about life not from plusses alone, but from minuses as well. Anton Chekhov I went to watch my father at Silverstone in the early 1950s, and I've still got the car he was in. Nick Mason Anybody can observe the Sabbath, but making it holy surely takes the rest of the week. Alice Walker I've always been a person with patience, and I don't like to force things. Harry Shum, Jr. I've been very well remunerated for my talents over the years so I really don't need the public's money. George Michael I think wh

has the futuristic element - although, freakishly, almost every aspect I invented has come to pass in some way, including the terrorist who fantasies about blowing up the World Trade Centre. That was extremely uncomfortable. The book came out on the week of 9/11. Jennifer Egan A technical objection is the first refuge of a scoundrel. Heywood Broun I write and chop with my left hand and do everything else, including eating with a knife, with my right. Heston Blumenthal You seem in England to be entirely ignorant of the temper of our people. Peter Oliver I have been writing since I was about 20, and at first I wrote in secret and never showed anybody. I was very concerned about making a living, so I conducted. David Friedman When I get old and slow down I want to look behind me and see all the fire and the wreckage and no stone left unturned. Aisha Tyler I'm not very ambitious at all. Amy Winehouse I'm awful with directions, and I'm not very handy around

day I can lose some weight. Maybe, who knows, I'll hire myself a trainer and a fancy cook. In five years, maybe I'll be an action hero. Then again, maybe I'll just be this guy. Who knows? But the fun part is embracing the human side of that. Billy Gardell You put your heart and soul into something and it makes you a little bit vulnerable. Ashley Tisdale Success doesn't necessarily come from breakthrough innovation but from flawless execution. A great strategy alone won't win a game or a battle; the win comes from basic blocking and tackling. Naveen Jain The second thing we did was said, OK, we've now identified the risk, but what do you want to do with the money? Because it's not enough to have risk; you've got to have a meaningful use for the money we give you. Michael Chertoff People will justify whatever for a good cause. Julie Taymor I am a huge fashion fan. It's a really cool way to express yourself. Kiernan Shipka Politically

that you go out and exercise that right. There's a lot of people who fight for our right to vote and people in other countries fighting for other peoples' right to vote and I think everyone should exercise that vote. Robert Griffin III You're always told by your publisher that you must only write one book a year and some years you should perhaps write none at all. Alexander McCall Smith Working exterior nights in Vancouver, when it's raining and snowing, is a little daunting, when you haven't slept. Jeffrey Dean Morgan No tricks, gimmicks, special pills, special potions, special equipment. All it takes is desire and will. Richard Simmons If I weren't a director, I would want to be a film composer. Steven Spielberg I think as a culture, we don't like conflict or looking at icky stuff - especially in our downtime. Kathleen Hanna As a child I was sometimes so hungry that I used to dream that one day I'd get locked in a grocery store. Geor

underbelly of American society. Another which has been getting increasing attention could be delivered via the kind of nuclear-armed ballistic missile that Iran and North Korea have been developing: a strategic electro-magnetic pulse attack. Frank Gaffney When you have that window of opportunity called a crisis, move as quickly as you can, get as much done as you can. There's a momentum for change that's very compelling. Anne M. Mulcahy Bin Laden comes out of a business background - he studied public administration and economics at university, and he worked for his family company, which was obviously a rather successful enterprise. Peter L. Bergen As long as you are being true to yourself, you will always find happiness. Amber Riley Every milieu has something ridiculous about it - film-making, the music world, painting - because people who take themselves seriously become funny pretty quickly. Rebecca Miller I don't always want to read serious fiction. But wh

kind of out on a boat by ourselves going through these uncharted waters. But it's become more understood, embraced and accepted, and now it's pretty much expected by fans for athletes, leagues and teams to be there. Amy Jo Martin I'm a huge Groucho fan. There were some great comic minds that would transfer into any generation, and Groucho is certainly one of them. Joe Rogan I wanted to be a radio announcer. Dick Van Dyke When I did 'The Social Network', David Fincher told me that I managed to make a thankless character pretty awesome. I thought that was really cool because I think he's really cool. Dakota Johnson This synchronous action then will be the Subject, which is the representative harmony. Robert Delaunay Hold me in your arms, lava lamp! Let me seek magma comfort and peace in the warmth of your kryptonite embrace. Isabel Yosito Rooting for the offense is the safe way to go. You win either way. Kate Mara I have goals that I want to r

day women are called upon to selflessly meet the needs of their families. Whether they are awake at night nursing a baby, spending their time and money on less-than-grateful teenagers, or preparing meals, moms continuously put others before themselves. Charles Stanley If somebody has a better idea than me, I'll take it if it surpasses what we have on the page because at the end of the day, it's me that takes the credit anyway! Guy Ritchie Tennis is a hard sport. There is a lot of competition all year and you play alone. Rafael Nadal Sometimes I will click on a random sequence of notes- not to actually use it in a song, but to see if I can find maybe a simple pattern that I can build off of. Ken Hill If allowed to run free of the social system, capitalism will attempt to corrupt and undermine democracy, which is after all not a natural state. John Ralston Saul One thing that I don't think my critics realize about me is that I've been trained to look advers

it at the Democratic Convention. One Alinsky tactic is to 'Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.' That's what the White House did in targeting Rush Limbaugh, Rick Santelli and Jim Cramer. Karl Rove I did a guest appearance on The Practice and loved it. Sharon Stone I can understand someone not liking the voice or the songs. Joanna Newsom If I can change than anyone can change. I promise you that. Brett Favre My opinion's no more important than anyone else's. It's just that I have the ability to have access to more ears when I speak because of my job. Lisa Edelstein I'm a feminist. I want to fight, but I don't see many people with this desire to fight for something. Women don't help each other, especially in fashion. Donatella Versace Wendy Malick and Valerie Bertinelli make fun of me, but I take care of my health - I don't abuse it. Betty White I am equally proud of all of my architectural projects. It&

see the surveillance that was going past the road on my house. And so, these cars began to surveil me. People began to follow me around, and it did, it was very disrupting to think that your privacy was being violated, and for no reason that I could come up with. Gloria Naylor We don't perceive a contradiction between writing books, making films or producing a television program. These days you can't choose how you want to express yourself anymore. Alexander Kluge You learn so much from competition you gain confidence every time you have to step up and perform. Natalie Gulbis I have a wonderful marriage and two great kids. Kelly Preston Everyone likes birds. What wild creature is more accessible to our eyes and ears, as close to us and everyone in the world, as universal as a bird? David Attenborough I love the fact we're still on the road. I was born to be a factory worker really, so for me the chance to get on stage at Wembley 30 years after we started is a

as a way of describing instantly a man's status wealth. Toffs wore the most, the proles the least. Fast forward to 2008 and clothes are still an unrivalled pleasure but some men - and this includes many of our betters - have confused status with fake informality. Peter York I guess the reality is, everybody today has so many gadgets. Barbara Broccoli I'd do anything to have more kids. But that's probably not gonna happen now. Alec Baldwin I was reared on folk music. Rufus Wainwright All bad things are exaggerated in the middle of the night. When you lie awake, you only think of bad things. Julian Barnes But at the end of the day, every star, every person that been iconic, has gone through a time in their lives where it was just bad. Everybody. It just made them better. Dwight Howard I believe in communication; books communicate ideas and make bridges between people. Jeanette Winterson I love Motown, but I've obviously always been more of a Memphis s

them special. But there are many dark young adult novels these days. Adults loved Harry Potter, though it was written for the young. In the end, it is probably up to the reader of any age to decide if this book is for him or her. Katherine Paterson Novelists are no more moral or certain than anybody else; we are ideologically adrift, and if we are any good then our writing will live in several places at once. That is both our curse and our charm. Andrew O'Hagan In 1972, George Harrison invited me to accompany him on a trip to India. Gary Wright One of the difficulties about interviewing people in Rwanda is that the country is trying to get on with ordinary life and some people just don't want to get involved in this. Tony Greig Talent does whatever it wants to do. Genius does only what it can. Eugene Delacroix I live life what I consider to be normal. Vijay Mallya When people are worried about the future, they don't take trips to Hawaii. Linda Lingle I

old saws in package goods is you can take something that is popular and you can make it more popular. But if you take something less popular, you can't automatically market it into the same success as something that's already popular. Fred Seibert A common creation demands a common sacrifice, and perhaps not the least potent argument in favour of a constructed international language is the fact that it is equally foreign, or apparently so, to the traditions of all nationalities. Edward Sapir My first car was a Chevy Cavalier. My dad somehow convinced me that it was a hot sports car because it was red. Katheryn Winnick The people who influence you are the people who believe in you. Henry Drummond Skateboarding is training, but I don't think of it as training. It's fun. Shaun White Maybe I'm misjudging people, but I feel like a lot of people still have an image of me in a bonnet at nine years old. Anna Paquin The essence of the conservative message s

challenged by India and the rising expectations of her African colonies. Marcus Garvey's avocation of African redemption and the restoration of the African state's sovereign political entity in world affairs was still a dream without fulfillment. John Henrik Clarke To put yourself in another's place requires real imagination, but by doing so each Girl Scout will be able to love among others happily. Juliette Gordon Low I know three people who have got better after a brain tumour. I haven't heard of anyone who's got better from Alzheimer's. Terry Pratchett When I think about a character, it does start with the shoes: What kind would she wear? How would she walk in them? Jennifer Aniston At the very beginning of my creative life I loved humanity. I wanted to do something good for mankind. Soon I understood that it isn't possible to save mankind. Wislawa Szymborska Humor is the truth; wit is an exaggeration of the truth. Stan Laurel If you'

we inspect a rock or measure the circumference of a tree trunk. Emotions are not to interfere with the assessment. The animal-rights movement capitalizes on this perception, depicting scientists as devoid of compassion. Frans de Waal I can't really change the games I like to make, and I can't change my own particular aesthetic. Kim Swift Science is spectral analysis. Art is light synthesis. Karl Kraus I don't have a competitive bone in my body, so the last thing I want to do is be competing with people. Paloma Faith If I had my will I would live in a ship on the sea, and never come nearer to humanity than that! Eleonora Duse The ocean is 20 minutes away. Nature surrounds me 24/7. I wake up to the sounds of birds chirping. I also love that I can go out to dinner in jeans and flip-flops. Jordana Brewster The Bible's been attacked. What is truth? It's relative. Todd Burpo I always knew I would come to London. I loved Glasgow, but it seemed filled w

has been involved in any kind of theater program, you know that it's really wacky and tight-knit, a real family. Me and my good friends from college would do random shows and plays that were sometimes serious, but most of the time really goofy and funny. Darren Criss Living with AIDS is like always having the sword of Damocles over your head. The disease is scarier than death itself. The disease is so messy, so devastating, so pervasive. It robs you of everything you hold dear. Larry Kramer Most days, I practice piano in the mornings and I spend the rest of the day painting. Caio Fonseca I'm just learning who I am and how relationships work and how to make them function. No different from anyone else. Drew Barrymore But I don't write so much now, because they're too painful. Bryan Ferry Audiences are audiences. Theodore Bikel Good directing is about getting the performance to be just what's right for the movie. Roland Joffe Meaning is what essen

'Why me? Why don't I have a father? Why isn't he around? Why did he leave my mother?' But as I got older I looked deeper and thought, 'I don't know what my father was going through, but if he was around all the time, would I be who I am today?' LeBron James She's a very charismatic character, and she holds the whole play together. Neil Tennant I have nobody. I have surrounded myself with people who are fake just because I need to talk to somebody. Nikki Reed But I think technology advertising will have to stop addressing how products are made and concentrate more on what a product will do for the consumer. Jay Chiat Order is manifestly maintained in the universe... governed by the sovereign will of God. James Prescott Joule You had to decompress the pressure before the race. I taught my heart to relax. I lay down before the race. It gave me more energy just before the race. Emerson Fittipaldi I loved old movies as a kid, so I always wat

with nuclear weapons. We've had them from the beginning. But they have also been critical for keeping the world more at peace than it would have been if it hadn't been for the American nuclear umbrella. Haley Barbour I'd like to say that right now, in the last few years, the Democrats have been closer - have been more pro-environment. The coal industry is pretty well entrenched in the Republican Party and that's one of the things that we need to phase out. Ted Turner The real problem is clean up the bureaucracy that people have to deal with to become a citizen the right way. And we must truly secure the border. We can't leave it porous. Herman Cain I wanted to star in a western opposite Robert Redford. That was my plan for my life. Dyan Cannon Caress the detail, the divine detail. Vladimir Nabokov We are the only state that does not have a State Film Corporation there to support the commercial industry. Ann Macbeth I have nothing but love in my hea
