of variety that constantly just comes at you from all angles. Robert Sheehan Today we have big, crude instruments guided by intelligent surgeons, and we have little, stupid molecules of drugs that get dumped into the body, diffuse around and interfere with things as best they can.

Sophia Loren I had no idea what I was going to do when they threw me out of school. Don Johnson

were in charge, we got fired in '06. We spent too much money. We defied the trust that the people had put in us. And we know that there is a better way.

Adam Clarke It's an awesome responsibility, not only to maintain the level of success the NFL has, but to build on that. Roger Goodell I liked doing comedies, but as I got older I was better suited to do Westerns. Because I think it becomes unattractive for an older fellow trying to look young, falling in love with attractive girls in those kinds of situations. Joel McCrea People in New York love having roof parties. Todd Barry Latin guys dance. American guys don't dance. That's a big difference. Sofia Vergara I think that I always loved being the centre of attention! Katherine Heigl I've just had an operation, but nothing too serious. Syd Barrett I admire my mother.

Edgar Winter Take one flower that you like and get lots of them. And don't try to 'arrange' them. It's surprisingly hard to do a flower arrangement the way a florist does one.

Olivia Munn Sometimes you need to press pause to let everything sink in. Sebastian Vettel I'm Southern, so alligator tail is pretty interesting and yummy.

find in history are to be comprehended in terms of development and that they are generally one-sided because they owe their origins to a reaction against what has gone before. Walter Kaufmann I also believe that government has no business telling us how we should live our lives. I think our lifestyle choices should be left up to us. What we do in our private lives is none of the government's business. That position rules out the Republican Party for me. Jesse Ventura I was actually already doing my Ph.D. in neuroscience when September 11 happened. 'The End Of Faith' is essentially what September 11 did to my intellectual career at that moment. Sam Harris Did Mad freakin' Max just call me irritating? Joe Pesci Fidelity - a virtue peculiar to those who are about to be betrayed. Ambrose Bierce I went to a school run by Catholic nuns.

work and leave my colleagues to crawl through the rest of the day in our New York offices. Bobbi Brown Princeton is no longer a thing for Princeton men to please themselves with. Princeton is a thing with which Princeton men must satisfy the country. Woodrow Wilson What was frustrating about Armageddon was the time I spent not doing anything. It was a big special effects film, and I wasn't crazy about pretending I was in outer space. It feels ridiculous. Steve Buscemi I kind of like working fast. Robert Rodriguez My generation is having its midlife crisis in its 20s. Edward Norton I would just like to have children. Lots of children. Frederik, Crown Prince of Denmark I don't wear sunscreen.

America is based on religious fundamentalist Christianity. Grow up! This is the modern world! Eddie Vedder Back in my day, we didn't think about money as much. We enjoyed playing the game. We loved baseball. I didn't think about anybody else but the Cardinals.

That's me. That's how I am. Marat Safin We African Americans have now spent the major part of the 20th Century battling racism. Con...

teachers in order to pass on that passion for stories to our children. It's not about testing and reading schemes, but about loving stories and passing on that passion to our children. Michael Morpurgo Fudging the data in any way whatsoever is quite literally a sin against the holy ghost of science. I'm not religious, but I put it that way because I feel so strongly. It's the one thing you do not ever do. You've got to have standards. James Lovelock I don't know if I'd want to do that anymore, because you always get bigger laughs on college campuses. So, when the film plays in front of a city audience, you've probably cut too loosely. David Zucker Love is the best thing in the world, and the thing that lives the longest. Henry Van Dyke I was a pretty good fighter. But it was the writers who made me great. Jack Dempsey I'm the kind of guy who really likes a challenge. It's more rewarding. Vanilla Ice If you say you're not a femin...

worldwide have difficulty in balancing their dual roles as caregivers and providers. Madeleine M. Kunin It used to be that people would watch TV shows because they knew the characters would stay the same. Whether it's Archie Bunker or it's Thomas Magnum you watch it because it's like, 'I'm comfortable, this is the same guy.'

Lexa Doig In America, people focus on the end result; they focus on the star. Joshua Waitzkin Music is such an important part of my life. ...

Wonder Woman is iconic and much better known, so you get into a lot of ridiculous expectations, like what's her costume going to look like? Well, nobody knows who Jessica Jones is, except for fangirls and boys. Melissa Rosenberg Well there is a lot of work here for younger and older musicians now. Our Ministry of Culture has now really embarked on changing things for artists, and it is getting much better. We just have to organize ourselves as artists, and then things will be better. Miriam Makeba I wonder about guys like Sean Hannity, Keith Olbermann and Mark Levin. They're on such a mission. I mean, I love Hannity and Levin to death, but on the radio they're insane. How can you keep that up? Don Imus I'm wondering if I made the right decision about hair and makeup. Ree Drummond I do feel a lot more comfortable when my dog is with me. Brian Schweitzer If there wasn't no fight, there wasn't no weekend. O. J. Simpson People are smarter than you ...

Don't be ashamed because you're human: be proud! Inside you, vaults behind vaults open endlessly. You will never be finished, and that's as it should be. Tomas Transtromer I've never understood why you would turn down a great role. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau A portal is a transitionary device of sight or sound that functions as a sort of third gravitating body between the this and the that, pulling us toward itself, allowing us to bridge into the unknown from the known.

of them. Nor would I be particularly interested in writing about them if I did meet them. Ayelet Waldman The original 'Edge of Darkness' was fantastic, a fabulous series. It was of its time, but this film version shows that times really haven't changed. Ray Winstone Students are rewarded for memorization, not imagination or resourcefulness. Sugata Mitra I don't want that to be the headline. Terrell Owens I quit smoking well over twenty years ago. Shelley Berman I never like to do parodies. I never do. It's just not my style of comedy.

paddles will move her along at a speed reasonable enough in moderate currents. C. S. Forester I always love working with young actors, because there's always something to learn. It's always exciting to see the next generation and how they approach things and what's great about them and what's not so great about them. Helen Mirren Positive social emotions like compassion and empathy are generally good for us, and we want to encourage them. But do we know how to most reliably raise children to care about the suffering of other people? I'm not sure we do. Sam Harris I like to visit L.A., but I wouldn't want to live there.

ourselves, because the players needed to get together to protect their interests.

me that when you borrow money it's the worst day of your life. Gary Vaynerchuk The arc of American history almost inevitably moves toward freedom. Whether it's Lincoln and the Emancipation Proclamation, the expansion of women's rights or, now, gay rights, I think there is an almost-inevitable march toward greater civil liberties. James McGreevey I am a big fan of horror movies but I had never thought that I had wanted to act in one because I don't think that actors get to do much in them. They're usually just reacting.

your life brings you into contact with. Edward Norton Americas are, for a variety of reasons, the most adept at producing the kind of entertainment that delivers easy satisfactions. Todd Gitlin 'From Here to Eternity' happens to be fourteen-carat entertainment. The main trouble is that it is too entertaining for a film in which love affairs flounder, one sweet guy is beaten to death, and a man of high principles is mistaken for a saboteur and killed on a golf course. Manny Farber I'm a private person. I'm shy about people knowing things. Farrah Fawcett It's no sin to admit that you feel vulnerable and lost.

I'm listening to Pavarotti and thinking, What the hell have I been doing with my voice all these years? Michael Bolton In my case, I used the elements of these simple forms - square, cube, line and color - to produce logical systems. Most of these systems were finite; that is, they were complete using all possible variations. This kept them simple. Sol LeWitt Ads need to be little pieces of entertainment. William Shatner I've raised my daughter with no television. Natalie Merchant I'm vomiting days before I start shooting a new movie. Joaquin Phoenix Artistic development is a thing of the past, sadly.

bit of time to breathe so I can pinpoint or at least nail down feelings I'm having and that I've had for the last however long. I need to nail them down long enough to actually write about and elaborate on them. Fred Durst The last two years with the Eagles were pretty intense times. There was a lot of drinking and we were all getting high a lot. My parents were relieved when I got off the Eagles treadmill. Glenn Frey In the sago palms, you'll often find sago beetles which are about the size of your little finger. The Karowai put those on the fire until they're crispy and eat them. They taste a little bit like creamy snails. But compared to sago, the sago beetle is really pretty good. Tim Cahill I'm not a hockey fan. I'm not a golf fan. Penny Marshall The possessions of the rich are stolen property. Pierre-Joseph Proudhon In short, humans are programmed to get bored. Emily Oster Other people's beliefs may be myths, but not mine. Mason Cool...

icon, I love him... But I can't go up and speak to him, because I don't want to seem like a goob. Jennifer Nettles I believe I have lots of time. I have to believe that, that it won't come back, and that that's why I'm in good hands. But I also do live my life by putting nothing off.

Ben Nicholson

'The Wonder Years,' rather than Brad Pitt. Chris O'Dowd Once you get on the playing field it's not about whether you're liked or not liked. All that matters is to play at a high level and do whatever it takes to help your team win. That's what it's about. LeBron James I'm learning kite surfing. It's a little surfboard you have on your feet with straps, and you have a big kite like a power glider in the air that pulls you. You don't need waves to move, and it makes a big spray of water as you go. Bertrand Piccard The inner reality of love can be recognized only by love. Hans Urs von Balthasar Every weird thing about you is beautiful and makes life interesting. Kesha Of course there are always exceptions, but opinions are not to be feared.

Lynn Swann The people of Maine were tired of being in debt and tired of being overtaxed. Paul LePage You know, tigers are very unpredictable. Suraj Sharma It's easier to replace a dead man than a good picture. George Bernard Shaw Knitters use knitting to value-add to the world. Stephanie Pearl-McPhee Life all comes down to a few moments. This is one of them. Charlie Sheen I often reread books I have written. Taylor Caldwell

stuff, and try to have it sound as good as my teacher. It took a lot of practice, which I enjoyed, and still do.

We ought to reinstate the assault weapons ban that served us well for 10 years from 1994 to 2004. Mark Udall I'm not someone who can lie on a beach and do nothing.

slavery was eliminated, they have been trying to keep it as close to slavery as they can without violating the slave laws. Michael Moore I'm not fond of crunches or lunges, but I do them anyway because I do see results. For me it's about being fit and staying healthy more than anything else.
