taking extra French classes. In the end, you're actually doing more damage to your children by trying to hot-house them. It's far better to remain a calm parent.

Mike Lowry I've been judged my whole life. People

reading about the Constitution, the Electoral College has nothing to do with parties, has absolutely nothing to do with parties. It's most states are winners take all.

Royston Drenthe A dose of humility goes a long way in life and in politics. Ron Fournier

with Green Day. Billie Joe called my name from the stage. 'Dookie' was the first album I ever bought. I covered the whole of 'Nimrod' and he'd heard it. That was like the 11-year-old girl dreamed. Florence Welch I read everything and anything. I love books. Gail Porter My mum was never too keen on TV, so we kids all went to the library and got books out.

of employing someone is a pretty barking thing to do when you're trying to get out of a recession. David Cameron I remember my father checking on a mountain kid who hadn't been coming to school.

don't like it when somebody such as myself speaks the truth about this - it hurts too much.

Marat Safin You'll never get rich by working for your boss. Felix Dennis If you're lucky, you go from being a movie fan to a movie maker. Kevin Smith I don't really have a lot of hobbies.

the script together-we knew who we were writing it for. It took some mystery away. Stephen Hopkins I have some ideas on how to fix that. They're not very good ideas, but at least they're ideas!

am used to. Joe Jonas A new release of Plan 9 happened in June, and at about the same time a new release of the Inferno system, which began here, was announced by Vita Nuova.

Godfrey Reggio You won't do any more housework? Then you go to the bin. Kate Millett All riches have their origin in mind. Wealth is in ideas - not money. Robert Collier Isn't that

the healthiest meat - organic, free-range food. It's a totally yuppie spin on what I thought was kind of a redneck occupation. Sarah Wayne Callies The key to good grilling is to recognize that you are setting yourself up to cook in a whole new environment. This is actually one of the main purposes of grilling - to get yourself outside. Barton Seaver I listen like mad to any conversation taking place next to me just trying to hear why this is funny. Women's restrooms are especially great. I wash my hands twice waiting for people to come in and start talking. Lynda Barry Happiness is a very small desk and a very big wastebasket.

James Blunt With artists of my own generation there was at first no group identity - and never a clique. Kenneth Noland Nixon in 1968, unlike Obama 2008, was elected as a minority president with only 43 percent of the vote.

with America like it's my first girlfriend. The geography, the people, the smell, the touch, the taste, the gas stations. I'm madly in love with America. Vincent Gallo I'm a firm believer that lighting affects mood, and twinkly lights on strings bring something magical to occasions ranging from concerts to weddings, though I'm fond of using them as year-round home decor.

Madeleine Albright Liver is my number

Andy Cohen It was my care to make my life illustrious not by words more than by deeds. Sophocles A lot of my work is about sales. And it was about being independent f

urban genocide committed with rogue nuclear weapons. But if that were the case, why would we call that '9/11'? If Washington disappeared in a mushroom cloud, we'd give that huge event a different name.

rock musicians must have been similar to the one the beat groups got from people like my dad. Trevor Horn The only honest and generous thing for me to do is to give people myself. That's all I've got as an artist, so I want to do that in an unflinching way. Charlie Kaufman Because I like theatre and I love a challenge. With 'ZEBRA!' I've found a new Australian play where I can create a character first - that's what I live to do. Bryan Brown In moderating, not satisfying desires, lies peace.

want to escape from their reality, and that's why we make movies, to get people to escape from the realities. Brett Ratner But, in the end, even a song that's as politically bland as Blowin in the Wind, you probably wouldn't get up and sing that now, whereas some of Bob Dylan's love songs that were contemporary with that, like say Girl from the North Country, you can still get up an play now. Billy Bragg Keep your sense of self; don't get caught up in what people want you to be. LeAnn Rimes I just turned 66, and I'm starting to work again.

White If I am incompetent, I am useless, the people of India will see that.

to straighten out and personnel problems and it sort of took a little time to do it. Debbie Harry All I say is that I don't go out with famous men. Samantha Mumba L.A. is always great.

the more I started playing basketball, the more I started dreaming of playing in the NBA. Dwyane Wade I have learned to live each day as it comes, and not to borrow trouble by dreading tomorrow.

I didn't have to do a lot of work and I ended up getting sort of bored. Scott Caan I never want to possibly take another life in my hands. Nicole Richie You might call me a tech intermediary.

and unanimity of thought and we need to concentrate on being respectful of those people with whom we disagree. Ben Carson I write because it makes God happy that I write. I sing because it makes God happy that I sing. And if it makes God's people happy, then all the better. But if it fails to do so, it's probably my fault. Jamey Johnson It's not so easy for us when we play teams who have a different mindset, like Chelsea or Inter Milan, because they have the intention of trying to stop us rather than playing a game that is more attractive for the spectators to enjoy. Lionel Messi You cannot help little men by tearing down big men. William J. H.

Pierre Loti When I was a screenwriter, I was doing it for mercenary reasons. James Frey The image you see of me out in public is really di

stammer, but nothing about how he got rid of it.

Michael J. Fox. I didn't want to be an actor. I just wanted to be Michael J. Fox for awhile. And then, I realized that he was an actor, so I pursued that. Patrick J. Adams I get a lot of kids distracted. Sometimes they got to go cover left field, but they're over here talking to me, getting an autograph.

involved in the affairs of the human community, be it at the local or the global level. Paul Wellstone The American people are extraordinarily comfortable, affluent, and secure. It's easy for us to make the argument that God's purpose is being fulfilled through history and through the rise of American power. And to some degree, it probably is.

in the crowds - and never sits watching a debate in person - is because the vast majority of American voters watch these political events on television.

They just come along. Laura Carmichael Satire doesn't effect change. P. J. O'Rourke As I see it, most major philanthropists have been bullied into giving. They feel social pressure to give.

Josephus Daniels We may have to have a geo-political regrouping or major geo-political changes. John Keegan I was

production process. For every use and for every production process there are innumerable equally attractive solutions. Eva Zeisel They're very, uh, you know, I don't come from the suburbs and a jolly, Disney type of lifestyle. I come from something totally different.

Rowling For a while it was hard for me to say no to work. Renee Fleming In real life, comedians aren't funny. Michael Showalter &#

Lincoln Steffens They did is sent me down Clearwater, Florida, and they said to me, Jessica, I need you to make Jim Bakker feel better.

future. I've been very fortunate that way, but for right now, what I like is what I'm doing. Gavin MacLeod In France you cannot not have lunch. If you stopped the French from having lunch, you will have a second revolution, I can tell you this. Not going to work - it is part of the French privilege.

Rob Sheffield When I was in high school, I was voted most likely to succeed. Sheryl Sandberg I believe I am entitled like any other person to have the presumption of innocence.

that that they are particularly stand-up I have to say, but I think they have been great for women and they are of themselves just incredibly funny whether they are male or female. Jo Brand Dogs got personality. Personality goes a long way. Quentin Tarantino The piano is the X factor.

standards and with students striving to maintain those standards. James S. Coleman Money is a strange business. People who haven't got it aim it strongly. People who have are full of troubles.

rather than gymnastics of style or literary trends. It's a certain kind of academic who undervalues realism, largely because it is not amenable to endless exegesis. Vikram Seth There are many, many Christians who practice Buddhism, and they become better and better Christians all the time. Thich Nhat Hanh I try to do everything from the viewpoint of what's best for my kids.

causing many other small Washington companies to be denied federal funding that would help transfer their ideas from their laboratories into our homes and hospitals. Jay Inslee It is well with me only when I have a chisel in my hand. Michelangelo Communities don't think, don't believe, don't want, don't have needs, don't have interests and don't make decisions. Only individuals have minds that generate desires and needs - and only individuals can make choices and decisions. Harry Browne I wish there were a healthier Republican Party in the state of Oregon.

I'm not afraid of PETA. Johnny Weir If you will r

unpleasant to ride; in fact, it is much less fatiguing than riding on horseback, and even with the little practice I have yet had, I find it shakes me less. William John Wills I needed to step away from music because the truth was I couldn't be the dad I wanted to be to my kids.
