do, or should - but whether government rulemaking can give us the result we want. Edward Felten The O. Henry has become lingua franca among writers for saying, 'That guy can write a story.'

you age, so that some books that you hated in high school will strike you with the force of a revelation when you're older. Lauren Groff The first real concert, other than going with my dad to see Three Dog Night, was Smashing Pumpkins and Garbage. I was fourteen or fifteen. I liked Shirley Manson because she reminded me of Annie Lennox. They both have these deep, sexy, powerful alto voices. Amy Lee Racism oppresses its victims, but also binds the oppressors, who sear their consciences with more and more lies until they become prisoners of those lies. They cannot face the truth of human equality because it reveals the horror of the injustices they commit. Alveda King The country crowd just has fun. Charles Kelley Wherever I find love I will accept it. M. F. Husain Music really becomes the soundtrack to the major events to your life.

You know that it'll get there, and you know that it'll get there on time. will.i.am I love shooting, when the character is interesting and the script is interesting, but the research beforehand is really fun.

country cooled their heels and waited for him, became a metaphor for a populist president who had gotten drunk with the perks of his own power and was sort of, you know, not sensitive to what people wanted. Dee Dee Myers I think IT projects are about supporting social systems - about communications between people and machines. They tend to fail due to cultural issues.

vulnerable. I wish some laws would come into play. Selma Blair Islam has been badly used by a certain ideology. Youssou N'Dour When I look back at my career as an author, I don't look at the first book that was ever published as to where my career began - I look to the first book that I ever wrote. Jarrett J.

to have enough to eat, the Army guaranteed one's survival.

to find songs on which I'm willing to invest anything from ten to fifteen hours writing an arrangement than it was in times past.

of exports and imports to the more competitive dollar will mean that the increase in aggregate demand from this source may not happen for a year or more. Martin Feldstein I keep waiting for the roof to cave in. I was raised to follow the Golden Rule, you know, treat people the way you wish to be treated. That's kind of the way I live my life. Maybe someone up there likes me for that. Matt LeBlanc If you think about Shakespeare, you remember Richard III and Macbeth before you remember Ferdinand, whose role is just to fall in love and be a bit of a wimp. I love the baddies.

all the work beforehand doing the marinade and making the salads and then everybody says, 'what a great barbie' to the guy cooking. A barbecue is just the ultimate blokes' pastime, isn't it? Curtis Stone I think the more avenues that open up when people want to publish, the better. Some of the authors that want to jump ship from the traditional houses and go on their own, you know what? Good luck. It's going to be a lot tougher than you think.

see the collections for the first time a few years ago, they made a huge impression on me. I realized that fashion is an art form, like acting or painting. Camilla Belle Jealousy can even be good for love. One partner may feel secretly flattered when the other is mildly jealous. And catching someone flirting with your beloved can spark the kind of lust and romance that reignites a relationship. Helen Fisher A novel and its writer are inseparable: you are your books.

Edie Falco I was quite happy with the way I went, I think. Lalla Ward Unless you have kids, you actually have no idea what kids are watching on TV these days. Hen

inches. Every skill is measured. Every heroic, every failing is seen and cheered, or booed. And then becomes a statistic.

or the endless drift of events will make the decision for us. Herbert V. Prochnow One day when I have a band I will have a band name, but since it's just me I feel it should just be my name.

I am actually a much better actor today than I was in 1996, believe it or not. Christopher Darden I didn't know my mother had it. I think a lot of women don't know their mothers had it; that's the sad thing about depression. You know, you don't function anymore. You shut down. You feel like you are in a void.

for the rest of my life, every day. It would have to be Tokyo, and I think the majority of chefs you ask that question would answer the same way.

Trombone Shorty It's art that pushes against psychological and social expectations, that tries to transform decay into something generative, that is replicative in a baroque way, that isn't about progress, and wants to - as Walt Whitman put it - 'contain multitudes.' Jerry Saltz To not pursue the thing one wants would be a waste of one's life. Rick Bass I think I can work with any type of actor.

games can be easier to referee. Alan Lewis That's the conundrum of cartoon stripping, as opposed to political cartoons. When your anger is the driving force of your drawing hand, failure follows. The anger is OK, but it has to serve the interests of the heart, frankly.

Dennis Bergkamp The only people playing the roles of classic rock stars are hip-hop artists, now.
