Britain. I've always carried the charge that I am an intellectual in politics.

a pilot. I think if you grow up in a dodgy area, reality often beats down those ambitions as you get older. But with me that never really happened.

people getting up and going to work, striving in this recession to not participate in it, they're not the enemy. They're the people that hire you. They're the people that are going to give you a job.

We need to understand what is going on, because there are much more economic models that can be used to give us good health care than what we have now. Ben Carson Death just comes, not happiness.

Marco Tempest In dance you use every party of your body except your voice. I wanted to start acting because I wanted to use my voice. Zoe Saldana I don't feel like I've hit my stride.

should not be throwing verbal rocks at each other. We're all responsible to continue the growth of Hip Hop. Grandmaster Flash I will be the Thai equivalent of Eddie the Eagle.

Danny Huston Man cannot live by bread alone; he must have peanut butter. James A. Garfield We all got lucky doing Boy Meets World. Will Friedle

to do with romance, sometimes vulnerability. The photographs are quite clearly about happiness, or search for happiness. Hedi Slimane Television itself is an intimate medium. It's in your house. You're visiting with these people... Not everybody's going to like it, just like not everybody likes everybody on the playground. I mean, that's life - especially if your job is to just go out there and be yourself. Rachael Ray Sometimes it's overwhelming but I love my fans and it's always great to see them. Justin Bieber I love chocolate. I like milk and dark chocolate, but definitely not white. Alicia Sacramone Although I was a shy child, I was also a bit flamboyant.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt About age ten, we moved from the place where I was born, moved overseas. Mary Chapin Carpenter It would be nice to really s

young people, that now you can make an image which just slightly suggests something, they can make of it what they will. Robert Doisneau There are two ways of talking. One is the easy way, where you talk lightly, and the other one is the considered way. The considered way is what I have put my name to. V. S. Naipaul I don't really make movies because I want to see my face on a billboard or because I want to get good reviews or have a big box office. That doesn't really matter to me at all. Joaquin Phoenix I fantasized being a broadcaster. Larry King I don't worry about the things I can't change. Ferran Adria Growing up, I was sort of a tomboy. I was the one skating with the boys.

alumni association. Now they are people who have not found in institutional religion a God big enough to be God for their world. John Shelby Spong I'm just so honored that the universe chose me to be the spark that has set off a raging inferno. Cindy Sheehan Fitness is a curve. You can be Lance Armstrong, or you can be really out of shape at the opposite end. People enter the curve wherever they are and then they can move up the curve, by better nutrition and better exercise. Gordon Strachan I don't ever really notice when guys are hitting on me. I'm oblivious. Krista Allen You blows who you is. Louis Armstrong Concentration is one of the happiest things in my life. Haruki Murakami All that I am, I am because of my mind.

Paula Radcliffe We were engaged three-and-a-half weeks after the first date. Michael W. Smith

my goal: to let them know there's another way. Janelle Monae Choosing writing as a career, just by itself, is a measure of not being a calculating person. Justin Cronin I know from my own experience that great films and great actors can have a really big influence on you. There is a place for art in the world, and if you're lucky enough to be good at something and to keep being given work, it's not such a bad thing. Sally Hawkins You don't need to like your protagonists. Anson Mount I am always on the women's side. Mary Boykin Chesnut Does the world have nothing inside but sorrow? Andrei Platonov The game of basketball is one thing, but the image of the game is another thing. Earl Monroe I'd done three solo albums in a row, and that's quite narcissistic. Bjork I can't dance on ice, because I'm like Bambi on ice. Martine McCutcheon I was just the perfect person to play the Mini-Me character. Verne Troyer

much, I've seen a lot of comics try to make that transition too fast, and it can be detrimental. And I don't think I've had as much success as I need in the comedy genre to open up those opportunities. Seann William Scott The President has launched a very agressive campaign of self-defense, with the goal of getting Americans to buy into his vision of America on the world stage. Gwen Ifill My wife says that my tombstone will read, 'Here lies Mr.C, who used to be Mr.B.' So I think that's probably what I'll be remembered for. Tom Bosley My films, no one else will do.

costs through the efficient operation of public buildings, saving taxpayers more than $172 million through energy efficiency projects. Rosa DeLauro I probably dreamt about running off to America or something when I was 16 because it just seemed like I was studying algebra and going, 'What am I going to use this for?' Carey Mulligan The great thing about the business is how Darwinian it is. We have to swim or die - if you are found wanting over a period of time, you've either got to change what you're doing or find something else to do. Steven Soderbergh I can't be funny if my feet don't feel right. Billy Crystal I'm not particularly precious about the theatrical experience any more.

'Remember when that movie won that year? It was 2006. Remember that?' Ang Lee I could not work with a girl who did not have a spiritual quality. Erich von Stroheim The only people who didn't like The Monkees were the French, and they don't even like themselves, so what's the point? Davy Jones The birth of any show is always a rough one.

own plans to keep children from finding indecent material on the Internet as an alternative to a Congressional proposal that would require a federally mandated solution. Tipper Gore The totality of a record is usually beyond ones ability to imagine when you start working on it, but the component parts are, usually, fairly clear one way or another. Fred Frith Stories had always been told about male genies coming out of bottles, but they were usually fat, old men. Never had the genie been a gorgeous woman, so that idea really appealed to me, and I created the series based on that premise. Sidney Sheldon I've done nudity. I'm an exhibitionist. It doesn't matter. John Turturro My talent is numbers. David Schweikert I'd always been a great fan of George Orwell. Martin Cruz Smith War is hell.

Price film... a prospect not to be contemplated, no matter the compensation. Billy Gibbons Whenever I can afford to do something, I do it. Thurston Moore Why do women get paid less money?

anything other than football but I didn't do too badly in my final exams and there were a few business-related courses that interested me. Kenny Cunningham Obstacles, of course, are developmentally necessary: they teach kids strategy, patience, critical thinking, resilience and resourcefulness. Naomi Wolf I think the first step is to understand that forgiveness does not exonerate the perpetrator. Forgiveness liberates the victim. It's a gift you give yourself. T. D. Jakes It's funny to be a critic. Leslie Fiedler I don't need to be married, but I feel married. Jon Hamm I turned my home state of Florida into the Land of Xanth. Piers Anthony The great thing about Dallas is there's no paparazzi. Jessica Simpson We produce programs that honor God and impact our world.

ideological polarization between the two major political parties. Thomas E. Mann Singing is just another outlet to express what I feel and to show everyone who I really am.

by the way, we are going to pay money to build a road here or inoculate children there,' unless we can demonstrate that it is in America's interest. I happen to think it is. Hillary Clinton I didn't realize how much harm I was doing back then and I think a lot of rap artists probably don't realize it now. I said a lot of stuff fooling around back then, and I saw it do a lot of harm. Adam Yauch I do not know what got me interested in technology. What was very clear to me very early on was that I was not interested in religion and that naturally increased my curiosity about science and technology, and I fundamentally believe the two are conflicting. Vinod Khosla I live like a Hottentot. I cannot exchange one sensible word with anyone. Gustav Mahler I wanted to be a plumber. Robert Goulet I don't think I was a good comedian. Brigitte Bardot One of the first signs of the beginning of understanding is the wish to die. Franz Kafka I love coming home t

more aware of the sanctity of human life, how precious every child is. Jack Kemp Thank God for beautiful songs about feeling despair when you yourself are in despair. They really get us through. Susannah McCorkle It is perfectly obvious that no one nor any single country can save the world from the horrors of tsunamis, hurricanes, earthquakes and winged influenza. Richard Reeves While we are reading, we are all Don Quixote. Mason Cooley I am actually a terrible coward. Fear is a constant fact of my life. Trevor McDonald No man not inspired can make a good speech without preparation. Daniel Webster I think as any artist you always want to grow; you always want to get better.

Ayumi Hamasaki Education is very important to my parents and to me. Rumer Willis

hunger practically uncontrollable when we build here on this the landscape of our homeland we must be clear that we will protect its beauty. Fritz Todt This kind of charge reveals a good deal about the personality of the people who make it; to impute such motives to another man is to imply you're harboring them yourself. Jim Garrison We are concerned with the relationship between art and life. Contemporary art is only intelligible in terms of its relationship to our life. David Elliott I prefer being a small fish in a big pond. Stacy Keibler It is much easier to find fault with others, than to be faultless ourselves. Samuel Richardson If a Latina falls in love with someone who is insecure, it can be a nightmare. Sofia Vergara My forte is awkwardness. Zach Galifianakis I've saved every dime I've made in my life. Chely Wright Singing is what got me into everything and made me fall in love with this industry. James Maslow Leadership is one of the thi

one, readers should think Laurel made the right choice. Then, at the end of 'Spells,' they should understand why Laurel made the choice she did. Aprilynne Pike When you have a celebrity who is willing to shine his personal spotlight on the non-profit and can also speak articulately about the mission, that's really the best of both worlds. Adam Braun The ability to take another perspective has become one of the keys to both sales and non-sales selling. And the social science research on perspective-taking yields some important lessons for all of us. Daniel H. Pink I think the 'South Park' guys are brilliant. Dan Savage I'm a pretty basic surfer. Jeff Bridges I'm addicted to documentaries. That's all I watch on television. Robert Zemeckis I wish I could score everything for horns. Richard Wagner The first record I bought with my own money was Rio. Thomas Lennon If you start very far to the left, it's harder to get to the middle.

wouldn't have a storm surge system and a sanitary system hooked together here that requires you to close your beaches 10 times a year. Aubrey McClendon There is no reason to change this system. I don't think we'll abandon it. For us the most important thing is to be compact in the back. That's the kind of game we have to play here and it will be very difficult to beat us. Oliver Kahn Prayer should be short, without giving God Almighty reasons why he should grant this, or that; he knows best what is good for us. John Selden This is not a sham, not a game. This is the real stuff. Marion Barry I was trained as a straight dramatist. Josh Gad I wouldn't say no to being in a film with Jude Law. I love English actors. Catherine Deneuve In this situation I was constantly exposed to danger and death. Daniel Boone I had no idea there were so many ways you could burn yourself out. Chris Evans Poets and heroes are of the same race, the latter do what the

off too much and try too hard. They don't understand where the line is between sexy and vulgar. I know where that line is. Roberto Cavalli If I'm going to fly for more than twenty feet it's generally a good idea to get a stunt guy. Joe Flanigan There is a great deal of cyberpunk that I admire, especially the work of William Gibson which I think is excellent. Somehow he speaks from his own heart and cyber punk is what comes out. Robert Sheckley I love the short-haired lifestyle. Anne Hathaway My wife dresses to kill. She cooks the same way. Henny Youngman My mom introduced me to science-fiction. Logan Marshall-Green Sometimes you feel bad about yourself when there's no reason to. Alvin Ailey Wrong is for other people. Fanny Brice I damaged my Achilles tendon, so I can't run. Jason Isaacs You know, I think music is very interactive. It's a - it's a language. Jake Shimabukuro

that's an opportunity for us to sort of move away from some of the meals that we've been preparing in the past. Tom Vilsack I like the blues a lot. I grew up on it. Morgan Freeman I like Princess Kate. I think her style is really great. She's really, really classy and always really sophisticated. Aly Raisman What a great day for football, all we need is some green grass and a ball. Bill Shankly Family is 100 per cent my top priority. Isla Fisher I don't feel restricted by the language: I feel more free. Olivier Martinez I do not say anything from jealousy. Anna Held Black and Jewish leaders have been a coalition of conscience. Jesse Jackson I was invited to a couple of races, but I was doing a play in New York. Josh Brolin Before I could talk, I would try to sing. Linda Cardellini

and bad and not really moral and Christ-like and biblical. But those people are never questioned as to whether or not they're allowed to be a parent. Rosie O'Donnell I was away from the front lines for a while this spring, living with other troops, and considerable fighting took place while I was gone. When I got ready to return to my old friends at the front I wondered if I would sense any change in them. Ernie Pyle One of the great joys of life is creativity. Information goes in, gets shuffled about, and comes out in new and interesting ways. Peter McWilliams The trouble that they see me in is a part of my life that I'm working on. Rodney King In fact I'd like to go back and live in Shakespeare's London. Jim Broadbent As you grow older, your whole life becomes very rich, multifaceted. Francesca Annis I graduated from college in 1980. Charlie Kaufman Most of the people in New York are very often from somewhere else. Michael Stuhlbarg I was a

funny about it. Also, I was familiar with Mike Myers' work in Saturday Night Live, but I did not know the extent to which he would make this creation. Michael York The 'EU in a Nutshell' is a miscellany of facts and anecdotes about the system which rules us. It's a book you can delve into in pursuit of a particular fact, or crack open for entertainment at virtually any page. Daniel Hannan I like it when, you know, 3-under wins, you know, 20-under par, it just brings so many other people into contention. Paula Creamer To live another person's life is quite a weird thing. Simon Callow If it was up to me, there wouldn't be no such thing as the establishment. Jimi Hendrix All through my comics career, I was always trying to reinvent the form. Scott McCloud At one point, CERN was toying with patenting the World Wide Web. Robert Cailliau No nation ought to keep a navy larger than is necessary to do police duty. George William Norris Look, I liv

show. I want to show them a good time and create an experience they're going to enjoy. Lynda Carter What difference does it make to you what someone else becomes, or says, or does? You do not need to answer for others, only for yourself. Thomas a Kempis It is a drastic mistake to eliminate the provisions that have to do with the protection of habitat for endangered species. It is my opinion that the Endangered Species Act is 99 percent about protecting critical habitat. Jim Saxton I've been writing full-time since 1978. Alan Dean Foster It's the role of the artist to pursue content. Anish Kapoor I am a practicing Hindu and have made no secrets about it. Tulsi Gabbard I go every year to the Huvafen Fushi in the Maldives and it's spectacular. Brigitte Nielsen I love new restaurants; I love trying out new foods. Monica Seles Friendships are discovered rather than made. Harriet Beecher Stowe There is nothing like becoming a mom to fill you with fe

do so. Canada is to the United States what, in Dante's scheme, Limbo is to Hell. Irving Layton Music is a big influence in my work and sometimes drives the energy of where I want to go.

LeAnn Rimes If you tell a lie to make a person better, then that is not a sin. Sun Myung Moon Three cigarettes in, your body already craves it. It is that addictive.

That's my favorite kind of acting. John C. Reilly I like nice clothes, whether they're dodgy or not. David Beckham

ability to rally and captivate the conservative movement. Rick Perry I'm a huge 'Breaking Bad' fan; I would be really annoyed if anyone told me anything about what was going to happen in the last eight episodes. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau Well, I think that abstinence has its place as part of a comprehensive health and sex education curriculum. It would be wrong to exclude abstinence from a health curriculum, because there are some potentially very serious ramifications for early sexual activity. Kerry Healey I'm just basking in the glory. Johnny Knoxville If life were predictable it would cease to be life, and be without flavor. Eleanor Roosevelt I love the energy over here in the U.K., the hospitality is insane. Flo Rida I'm part wood nymph. I require mountains and warm, dense patches of moss to thrive. Vera Farmiga I'm committed to working with teachers. Kathleen Wynne Intervals and other types of speed work are essential to improve running

if we found a unicellular organism on Mars. It would change our whole concept of life on Earth. Tommy Lee Jones We shall never change our political leaders until we change the people who elect them. Mark Skousen If a hurricane strikes, we can blame the president for not being there; we can blame Congress and FEMA; we can blame the state governments; but in the end, it's the mayors and the local city governments that have to be prepared for emergencies and be prepared to act. Michael Bloomberg Make sure you know what you are signing when you sign a recording contract. Tommy Shaw I believe in taking what happens as inevitable. William Shatner I believe that when things happen, they happen with a purpose. William Shatner Well, I'm eventually gonna take the Daryl Hannah parts. Gilbert Gottfried I put heavy emphasis on the characters. Keenen Ivory Wayans Big government doesn't work! It just doesn't work! Lou Barletta My style is very strong poses a

own good. I'd be in tears because I wasn't doing well. But the healthy competition really toughened me up. Marisa Miller Mike Bloomberg may be a Republican these days. But he has been a Democrat for most of his adult life. Randi Weingarten It is a common phenomenon that just the prettiest girls find it so difficult to get a man. Heinrich Heine I realized I was an attractive older woman who never wanted to settle down. Cindy Gallop What I write, I write. I'll always do it in some form. Iain Sinclair I write heavily under the influence of James Taylor. Carole King For it is, and must remain, the case that we must obey God rather than man.

Paul Simon I sold some shares, but on a net basis, significantly increased my ownership. Jeffrey Skilling

now is the biggest and best step that you can take. Instead of putting your ego first, you put the buyer first. And I think that that's a really important thing just to know what the consumer is wanting to wear. Jessica Simpson We all know about blogs and how big they are. John Doerr Every time I get on an airplane I have a routine. I cover the inside of my nostrils with anti-bacterial ointment. I'm popping Zicam like it's candy. And I drink, literally, from L.A. to New York, six bottles of water. Zachary Quinto I grew up with people staring at me because I was such a tall, awkward girl. Matt Emmons You don't need to exorcise your personal demons onstage. Jimmy Kimmel Polls? Nah... they're for strippers and cross country skiers. Sarah Palin My best experiences with movies have come when I didn't know what to see. Jean Paul Gaultier I think that British girls have a very eclectic and unique style. Nicole Richie I had an attachment disorder

minutes of my time. It never occurs to them that if they're asking for it and another thousand people are asking, I don't have 1,000 five minutes to give. Stephen Jay Gould All of a sudden you have this feeling of clarity. Backcountry snowboarding has really done a lot to boost that feeling in me. Craig Kelly I mean, if you go back to 1960 on major pieces of legislation, the filibuster was used about eight percent of the time. Tom Udall Music breaks my heart constantly. Rashida Jones A church is a hospital for sinners, not a museum for saints. Pauline Phillips A feature film is twenty-four lies per second. Michael Haneke Being a mother is hard and it wasn't a subject I ever studied. Ruby Wax I play in a band, I write songs, I sing, you know, perform on stage. Adam Levine If I could work with any actor it would have to be Johnny Depp. He is cool. Ben Nicholas Success to me was getting out of that contract in one piece. Brenda Holloway

all the replays - I'm on the ground every time. It's unfortunate for myself, it's unfortunate for my team and I'd be lying if I sat here and said I wasn't frustrated right now. Michael Vick I can paint in jail. Jack Kevorkian I spent a good part of the nineties roaming the Earth writing about conflict. It was very grueling. I was beginning to find this way of life was, wow, addictive and deeply meaningful. Janine di Giovanni The only thing that matters is that we stand firm. Heinrich Himmler The Siren waits thee, singing song for song. Walter Savage Landor I got into acting to get my foot in the door for film-making. Logan Lerman In a number of cases dissenting opinions have in time become the law. Charles Evans Hughes I would make people who bullied me laugh, so that's my defense mechanism. Sherri Shepherd That's the problem today: Who is the creator? Dan DeCarlo There is nothing you can control about love. Jennifer Aniston

position, and that's really important to me; that's one of the first things I look at when I say, 'does it make sense to do a deal?' Mike Rowe I would like to be someone like Steve Martin. That's the path I'd like to follow. Carrot Top Most of the time - at the Grammys for example - a DJ will perform with just their hands in the air because they can't do anything and that makes it a little awkward, I think. Tiesto The hand that dips into the bottom of the pot will eat the biggest snail. Wole Soyinka Theories are patterns without value. What counts is action. Constantin Brancusi I don't eat wheat and am into alternative medicines and treatment. Arizona Muse If you play in the NFL and start for 10 years, it's not good. It is not good. Terry Bradshaw I think its man's nature to go to war and fight. Talib Kweli My passion is my family and the world of fashion. Claudia Schiffer What is not in the open street is false, derive

head alert to the motion of the world I am aware that life was never perfect, never absolute. This bestows contentment, even a fearlessness. Harold Brodkey When I was younger, I was very scared to talk to people. To the point where my parents took me to a therapist because they thought something was wrong with me. Harry Shum, Jr. I've always been creative, I think. Emily Watson People say I'm the white Aretha Franklin. I wish I was her. Joss Stone I take anything other than 'you big pig!' as a compliment.

in the spine; but these are necessary results of their laborious existence, and do not belong either to climate or constitution. Fanny Kemble I carry around, like, a little journal with me and just write all the time. Not necessarily, like, actually sitting down and writing lyrics - just freeform writing, whatever's going on in my mind. I write a lot on airplanes, actually, because it's completely isolating. Mandy Moore For me to even be talking about bikini confidence is crazy. If you had asked me a couple of months ago, I probably would have been like, 'what are you talking about...' so it's actually huge for me to even feel okay with putting a bikini on. Jordin Sparks Children's authors don't talk down or patronise their younger readers. John Boyne Music is the universal language. Swizz Beatz We all have levels of performance. Angela Lansbury Everything I've done has been personally fun, important, and meaningful to me. Ashley Judd

the men got to pit themselves against ideas or God. Judy Davis Even if you've been involved in a World Cup, the Olympics is huge. Only the Games has the power to change communities. Daley Thompson People didn't stop spending money, they just spent it on things that complement their PCs. Stephen Baker A conservative is a fellow who thinks a rich man should have a square deal. Frank Dane We see death constantly on film. Michael Sheen I like simplicity; I don't need luxury. Francis Ford Coppola Myself, first of all, I am a Jew. And that is the most important thing for me. Ariel Sharon I hope to inspire people, influence people. Ashley Tisdale Charity begins at home, and justice begins next door. Charles Dickens Punk is not really a style of music. It was more like a state of mind. Mike Watt

good justification. It's not good to study gene organisation in some obscure insect that no one's ever heard about. Thomas R. Cech The problem is, we elected a manager and we need a leader. Let's face it: Bush is just dim. George Clooney I thought it was respectful to each country to sing in their language. Nana Mouskouri I grew up rock climbing. Jason Momoa A concert is not a live rendition of our album. It's a theatrica! event. Freddie Mercury I read a lot. I am an inveterate reader. I always have a novel going.
