far as getting the computer working. All of my kids, it's amazing. Like everybody's kids, they're more savvy than I am, probably. Chris O'Donnell I think I'm probably quite geeky in a lot of ways. I'm pretty into books, kind of obsessive about that. Alice Eve With so many of our fundamental rights hanging in the balance, it is not good enough to simply roll the dice, hoping a nominee has changed his past views. It's not good enough to think, 'This is the best we can expect from this president'. Barbara Boxer The English contribution to world cuisine - the chip. John Cleese I ran to my marriage, I was happily ready to take on marriage. Mark Ruffalo Tolerance is the price we pay for living in a free, pluralistic society. Robert Casey The thrill, believe me, is as much in the battle as in the victory. David Sarnoff I am not a sound bite person. I prefer to run at the mouth. Marina Sirtis If you're good, you're always look

was halfway through high school - so right around the time he's going through his big renaissance is right when I'm starting to do my high school revolting. Colin Hanks I am a Facebook voyeur. I feel bad about it because I never put anything on there, but I find it fun to sit there and watch peoples' lives go by. Or whatever lives they're presenting. Eddie Kaye Thomas Science is the search for truth, that is the effort to understand the world: it involves the rejection of bias, of dogma, of revelation, but not the rejection of morality. Linus Pauling I divide my time between Columbia, Maryland, and Lagos, Nigeria. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie In the '60s, '70s and '80s, everybody was pretty tense on the set. Gloria Stuart I believe in God and immortality. Alex Campbell Forgive your enemies, but first get even. Lester Cole I don't know what I'd do if I had to look pretty all the time. Shirley Henderson Talent is very dangerous. It

doing pantomime and people just got jealous of me doing that. Frank Bruno I'll accept bad taste in a minute, as long as there's some great comedy minds and performances. Mel Brooks We know that Medicare's going broke in seven years, but we need to start over. That's what the American people want us to do.

Brian Celio We continue to be vigilant. Marek Belka

need to find a better way to increase minority opportunities. Marvin Olasky I think it sort of dawns on you that if you're not gigging constantly you're not actually relevant. You may be relevant to a different part of the media now, to television commissioners and editors, but to a young live-comedy audience you're not, really. Johnny Vegas While American taxes pay for much of the research and development that goes into creating the new, life-saving drugs, American consumers continue to subsidize the cost of the drugs for consumers across the world. Michael K. Simpson I think about how I'm spending my money, and I like to spend on my family. Hilary Swank That's life - to turn each other on, to feel good, to feel in love. Laura Dern You don't look out there for God, something in the sky, you look in you. Alan Watts I want to stretch myself as an actor. Victoria Justice I was crushingly bored talking about politics 30 hours a week. Art Bell

hanging out all day playing golf and going to the beach, all my own age. We'd be laughing and having a good time and getting loopy on our prescription drugs. Driving golf carts around. I can't wait. Cameron Diaz Facebook is at the forefront. It's the company that can fundamentally change the way information is being exchanged and processed. It can be the basis for artificial intelligence to develop over time. Yuri Milner Wonder is that possession of the mind that enchants the emotions while never surrendering reason. It is a grasp on reality that does not need constant high points in order to be maintained, nor is it made vulnerable by the low points of life's struggle. Ravi Zacharias When will government cease being a nuisance to everybody? Charles Olson Our idea is simply to play the songs and to emphasize our musicianship. Krist Novoselic I was fired by 'America's Next Top Model' on my birthday. Paulina Porizkova Hitler was good in the b

the fact that I'm a girl, ever. That's obvious, isn't it? Danica Patrick The Oscar changed everything. Better salary, working with better people, better projects, more exposure, less privacy.

Henry David Thoreau Oh, well, there's a difference between privacy and secrecy. Laura Schlessinger If you plan to win as I do, the game never ends. Stan Mikita

path less traveled; that knowingly step up to serve, even though our country is tearing itself apart with things like political machinations. Steve Daines The worship of youth has diminished - perhaps generally - in recent years. Vince Cable The experiences of promoting my first album were really something; there is so much illusion in my environment (touring and pop music) that I wanted to clear away. Duncan Sheik I am composing like a god, as if it simply had to be done as it has been done. Franz Schubert We absolutely need to reform the Congressional budget-writing process. Patrick McHenry There's only so far you can go before you say enough is enough. Jennifer Granholm When you don't have people in your life pushing you, can you push yourself? Tori Amos I don't shop as much as a lot of people but I do like designer clothes. Philippa Gregory I don't really study the guys that I'm racing against. Ryan Hall Music is a 24-hour-a-day thing

of ballooning across it. I have a great time at Lewa. There's more rhinos than you'll find anywhere. A great part for the children is you can ride horses with the giraffes and the zebra. Mark Burnett Before Katrina, you didn't see criticism of the Bush administration in the media. Here they are, stealing elections, enacting illegal wars, huge crimes against humanity and democracy, and you didn't even see criticism. It wasn't until Katrina that people started to come down on them. Ani DiFranco We are mandating forces to hold regular neighbourhood beat meetings. These meetings will give local people the chance to scrutinise the work of their local police. Theresa May Sometimes doing the forbidden can be nice. Alain Robert I don't understand what modern clothes are about at all. Julie Harris Nonviolence is fine as long as it works. Malcolm X We are all descendants of Adam, and we are all products of racial miscegenation. Lester B. Pearson I don

view that we have got the working class, the middle class and the upper class, I think it is more complicated than that. Ed Miliband I feel like I'm really honest in my interviews, to a fault. I've lost friends over it. Major friends. And I'm heartbroken about that. Shia LaBeouf A Bond girl must be a strong and independent woman, but at the same time charming and sensual. Those opposite qualities combined together make her interesting. She must be strong but at the same time feminine. Olga Kurylenko Since Sven Goran Eriksson took over, England have been fantastic. Franz Beckenbauer I cast unusual people in my movies. Albert Brooks I'm Phil Knight, and I don't believe in advertising. Phil Knight Anything that raises any internal honesty about gay life is inherently suspect. Andrew Sullivan He who is reluctant to recognize me opposes me. Frantz Fanon Every blessed one of you feels better for that burst of laughter. Ivor Novello You can almos

as well written as 'Midnight's Children.' Why aren't people reading 'Midnight's Children?' Nobody knows why these phenomenons happen but they're great. Denise Mina Well, I feel that everybody in the country knows me. I think people know who I am, and that I'm deputy leader of the Labour party, and that I'm out there talking about their big choice for the future. Harriet Harman I've never fallen in love right off the bat. I get scared to say I love you too soon because it means so much. It means you're not seeing an end to things. Leighton Meester Career is important, but nothing really supersedes my roles as a mother. Halle Berry I just think people should be able to express themselves. Vince Carter That is a good question for you to ask, not a wise question for me to answer. Anthony Eden At times I make music, but in private. Stella McCartney Having started out in theatre, I feel an impulse to do it as much as I can.

it, but if you don't like the health insurance you have, you should be able to choose something else. Ron Wyden I have walked into the palaces of kings and queens and into the houses of presidents. And much more. But I could not walk into a hotel in America and get a cup of coffee, and that made me mad. Josephine Baker As writers become more numerous, it is natural for readers to become more indolent; whence must necessarily arise a desire of attaining knowledge with the greatest possible ease. Oliver Goldsmith I've always found it very sanitary to be broke. Orson Welles When I'm in Miami I like to go and watch basketball, the Miami Heat. Andy Murray I've read some scripts, but I don't read as many books as I should. Stephen Dorff We grow a little every time we do not take advantage of somebody's weakness.

the thing that makes me despair: the idea that people aren't given equality of opportunity. Zadie Smith It's easier to learn things for life by the age of 12 and not the age of 18. This is just my guess.

Louise Slaughter I don't think I'm funny. Liam Neeson Face it, the system is rigged, and it's rigged against us. Eric Alterman If you watch Cheers, in 12 years they didn't age a day. William Devane Many people have this image of me. For a long time, I cared about that. Ichiro Suzuki All actors have to change their name. Jeremy Irvine My viewpoint is the Senate is dysfunctional. Mo Brooks I knew what I wanted to do from the time I was 5. Lenny Kravitz

same way, and because you can always choose similarities and differences to fit current needs. James Fallows The primary thing I should do, apart from being a good husband, brother, son, and friend, is to be a citizen activist. But I'm afraid it takes away from the writing. Not that anything depends on whether I put an essay in 'The Nation' or not. But you want to participate. Tony Kushner Early in last season, George was very worried about other people's emotions, especially how they saw her, and felt she was outside looking in. This year, she still hopes people will accept her for who she is, but if they don't, she's OK with that. Ellen Muth Man's biological weakness is the condition of human culture. Erich Fromm I started playing the guitar and singing at about 11 or 12. Drake Bell Computers get better faster than anything else ever.

what he listens to: 'Valerie' by Amy Winehouse, 'Everyday People' by Arrested Development, The Beatles' 'Rocky Raccoon,' and Bruce Springsteen's 'Atlantic City.' Adam Pally The number of attacks on the American and allied forces is at the highest level since the insurgency began despite the increase of America combat operations and the introduction of some 40 new Iraq security forces and battalions. Ike Skelton In days when the public safety is imminently threatened, and the fate of a nation may hang upon a single act, we owe frank speech, above all other men, to him who is highest in authority. I shall speak to you as man to man. Robert Dale Owen We all have a common goal, and we know it's all for our future good. Marta Kristen I'm knocking our pitiful, pathetic lawmakers. Jimmy Swaggart Lose an hour in the morning, and you will spend all day looking for it. Richard Whately It's one of the reasons I don't do dru

woman is this ball buster and the guy is sort of weak and spineless. And that's never been my experience in a relationship. I think it's much more interesting that the guy is the boss. And there are stakes. Whitney Cummings There are cognitive processes and limbic reactions associated with basic emotions. And you can change brain chemistry, but you're still not going to change memories and experiences in a human being. Helen Fisher Why pay a fee for Internet content when a million free sites are just a click away? There's no incentive until people are too addicted to the Net to turn off their computers, yet are bored with what's available. Nathan Myhrvold I'm OK: I don't need money. Manolo Blahnik I'm not a film snob. Tracey Ullman Factory farming's evil; you know that. Eric Ripert From the first time I saw Sid Caesar be funny I knew that's what I had to do.

to catch up on it when I can; it's one of my favorite shows. Morena Baccarin I'm always trying to reach a transcendent point, a romantic point, but reach it in a really unconventional way, a really profane way. To get to that romantic, touching, heartbreaking place, but through a lot of acts of profanity. Chuck Palahniuk A young man who knows and loves the Book of Mormon, who has read it several times, who has an abiding testimony of its truthfulness, and who applies its teachings will be able to stand against the wiles of the devil and will be a mighty tool in the hands of the Lord.

there is no doubt that a large proportion of the female population, from school days to late middle age, now have very complicated lives indeed. A. N. Wilson That was our first major tour and we got a chance to play in front of like 5000 people every day so it was like a Rock and Roll boot camp for us really, we learned a lot and made a lot of good friends. Adam Rich I'm thought of as a celebrity. Everything I've ever done... has been for children. As long as I was working constantly, that was fine, because, although I don't have any children, I do relate better to them than adults. Jack Wild Love other human beings as you would love yourself. Ho Chi Minh I love a good Slash guitar riff. It's sexy! Malin Akerman Take a step back, evaluate what is important, and enjoy life. Teri Garr The only two men I have time for are Barack Obama and my trainer. Sophia Bush I love my job, I've always loved my job. Sienna Miller I always felt more emotionall

with very strong archetypes operating. You know, the guilty girl being pursued, falling, all kinds of stuff that we see in our dreams all the time. Brian De Palma Regardless of the business aspect of things, is there a reason that there isn't a female Hitchcock or a female Scorsese or a female Spielberg? I don't know. I think it's a medium that really is built for the male gaze and for a male sensibility. Bret Easton Ellis You can't have a decent food culture without a decent coffee culture: the two things grow up together. Adam Gopnik I love mysteries on television - the more psychologically complex, the better. Rebecca Eaton You don't want to make an enemy of Piers Morgan. Lynne Truss However long the song is was how long it took us to write it. Geezer Butler The film business has changed so dramatically from when I started. Penelope Ann Miller To me, being in your prime means playing your best and feeling your best, too. Warren Moon I real

old, watching reruns of 'I Love Lucy' on TV and thinking about making people laugh. Paul Reubens The Indians were well mounted and felt proud and elated because they had been made United States soldiers. Buffalo Bill I thought 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind' was so interesting the way it was made and the texture of it. Gerard Way I want to feel my life while I'm in it. Meryl Streep I understand that we cannot make other people happy when they are unhappy. Audrey Tautou A woman should be like a single flower, not a whole bouquet. Anna Held I didn't read at all until I was 12. I just couldn't. It was too frustrating. Ahmet Zappa America has a critical place to play in the end of extreme poverty. Hugh Evans I'm really not that good at Guitar Hero! Aaron Yoo Goodness is uneventful. It does not flash, it glows. Ray Stannard Baker

lot of women of fire and sexuality like an animal - so I'm cold on one side and fiery on the other. Emmanuelle Beart If you have a brother or sister, tell them you love them every day - that's the most beautiful thing. I told my sister how much I loved her every day. That's the only reason I'm OK right now. Amaury Nolasco When I know the data that's being shared and I'm asked explicitly for my consent, I want some sites to understand my habits.

Carlos Fuentes I'm usually just enjoying life. Alan Jackson When you read a script, you get a feeling from it. Sasha Alexander I always hated being a child. I always felt like an adult trapped in a child's body. Steven Seagal I don't look for bliss, just contentment. Alison Krauss But by all this I am no

film. You certainly discover that you need to explain more about a character. Rowan Atkinson Getting married and then having children just centered me and grounded my values. It was like a whole new world. It started happening in New York with a little play called Cruise Control, where I relaxed, and then I kept getting work in Hollywood till this series happened. Patricia Richardson My father, who educated his children on worldly principles, gave us much money, considering our age; not in order that we might spend it, but, as he said, to accustom us to possess money without spending it. The result was, that it led me and my brother into many sins. George Muller When I write a book, I'm making it the best book I can. Thomas Perry It was tumultuous, it was crazy, but I would not trade it for anything. Colin Quinn I don't avoid confrontation, people should know that. David Coverdale Full, saturated colours have an emotional significance I want to avoid. Lucian

art schools and was rejected by all seven. Janet Echelman I feel completely fortunate to have this outlet for something I don't really feel like I have a choice in, to make music. I've got to make it. Ian MacKaye If you remain unsettled by a piece of writing, it means you are not watching the story from the outside; you've already taken a step towards it. Daniel Day-Lewis I am someone who hopes for the best and prepares for the worst. Hillary Clinton You are only as successful as the people who work for you want you to be. Ronald Lauder The way I work, typically, I do everything at the very last minute. Ayumi Hamasaki Scientific thought and its creation is the common and shared heritage of mankind. Abdus Salam I created Evel Knievel, and then he sort of got away from me. Evel Knievel Trying to be Supermom is as futile as trying to be Perfect Mom. Not going to happen. Arianna Huffington I like Public Enemy a great deal. Randy Newman

on record to say I will do so in 'The Departed'. Anthony Anderson I know now what this meant, that the bison were the gift of a good spirit and were our strength, but we should lose them, and from the same good spirit we must find another strength.

Fuzzy Zoeller I don't feel very optimistic in London. David Bailey I don't think Pulp Fiction is hard to watch at all. Quentin Tarantino I'm ready to rock and roll.

Robert Plant Life is never all one thing. It bounces around. Certainly, my own life has. Tim O'Brien

has them perceived by others as though they were the elements of their lives. Paul Simon When you're in your 20s, there's maybe a little room for you to not be at the top of your artistic game, if you look good on a magazine cover. When you're not on the cover of the magazines anymore, then you realize that the work has to be great. Tori Amos I'm very impressed by St. Patrick's. Another deity to me is definitely Saks Fifth Avenue. Someone told me that when they go to Vermont, they feel like they're home. I'm that way at Saks. Caroline Rhea Once upon a time, I was a climate-change skeptic. James Balog Well, where there is freedom doubt itself must be free. Garet Garrett I don't have a problem with Werner Herzog. Abel Ferrara People are fascinated about the world above them because it seems so out-of-reach. Felix Baumgartner I used to dream about presenting a comedy show and also about directing films. Joe Cornish I'm playing to

Ralph Waldo Emerson

accidents. I was doing well at school. I was a good sportsperson, but at that point, I gave up on all of those things that were there to be done. I couldn't deal with them. Manu Bennett It is important that the Greek people make decisions on important developments. George Papandreou When you have 13 horns, and one is soloing, you have 12 people to play the richest, fullest chord you could ever imagine behind that solo.

Louise Jameson The dieting wars have got to stop. Lady Gaga The true measure of the value of any business leader and manager is performance. Brian Tracy A probing analysis of the problems of evolution forms the basis of my prose.

well. So I ignore it, to be honest. If I started to read it all it would completely mess up my head. Sienna Miller I love being a student, if I could, I'd stay in school forever. Andrea Barber We all know the power of film; we all know there's almost nothing more powerful than to see people on film that look and talk like you, like we do.

and just see what will happen to them when I let them loose! Judy Blume It is clear that there needs to be a closer working relationship between the United States and India. How can we have a close relationship if decision-makers in Washington know very little, if anything, about the religious beliefs, values, and practices of India's 800 million Hindus? Tulsi Gabbard Jealousy is not at all low, but it catches us humbled and bowed down, at first sight. Sidonie Gabrielle Colette I want to be a cool mom. Tori Spelling What tipped the scales was that psychology involved working with rats. Morrie Schwartz Pursue one great decisive aim with force and determination. Carl von Clausewitz I'm Dario Argento, and my style is something recognizable I think by the audience. Dario Argento Lotteries, a tax upon imbeciles. Camillo di Cavour People always want to put a label on you; they always want to compare you to something. Carrot Top Private property is a very fu

I like being in a horror movie. I'm a fan. My perspective's a little different just because I get to participate as well as spectate. Nathan Fillion The thing is, I have a zillion apps, and I'm always looking for the perfect arrangement for them, so scrambling my home screen is part of that eternal quest. Susan Orlean I can't tell you where a poem comes from, what it is, or what it is for: nor can any other man. The reason I can't tell you is that the purpose of a poem is to go past telling, to be recognised by burning. A. R. Ammons I think new writers everywhere need opportunities to get published. Greg Egan A museum is a place where one should lose one's head. Renzo Piano I'm very uncomfortable in my own skin. Ray LaMontagne The defense of marriage is the defense of freedom. Neither of which is obsolete. Nancy Pearcey Aside from sales, the letters from readers have been primarily positive. Jean M. Auel Frontmen come alive when they

religious ghetto, though it hasn't been very comfortable. Taken together, their limitations cancel each other out and I have seen the world more kindly and more honestly.

charts thanks to you all. I pray that keeps moving up and with your help it will. LaToya London My dad was a musician, it was just what he did, like another guy's dad drives a meat truck. Our house was normal. We weren't taken with the fact our dad was a musician. Branford Marsalis Certain days I think definitely because we went in there and we got Saddam and that was our mission.

there on the field checking things out. This helicopter flies overhead, probably taking pictures, and McMahon just moons it. He mooned the helicopter from the field. William Perry Wild animals would not stay in a country where there were so many people. Pa did not like to stay, either. He liked a country where the wild animals lived without being afraid. Laura Ingalls Wilder 'Moonwalking with Einstein' refers to a memory device I used when I memorized a deck of playing cards at the U.S. Memory Championship.

Carrie Fisher I'm a mediator by training and inclination. Joan Blades I write books to find out about things. Rebecca West

democracy and liberty, not to violate that. John O. Brennan I think it would be nice to sell 15 million albums as a solo artist. I'd have to deal with all the repercussions of that, but that wouldn't be too bad. Glenn Frey All our discontents about what we want appeared to spring from the want of thankfulness for what we have. Daniel Defoe The price of freedom is eternal vigilance. Desmond Tutu I always like to leave art and music open to interpretation.

Steve Wozniak Netflix, I love you. Beau Mirchoff I am mentally strong. Wayne Rooney

on; she is out, in a sense, to discredit her nurturers, while at the same time making a public crisis out of her need for nurture. Such vulnerability and such power: it brings the whole female machinery to a halt. Rachel Cusk Those who find beauty in all of nature will find themselves at one with the secrets of life itself. L. Wolfe Gilbert When I was 10, 11, 12 years old, I would pretend to be on the radio. I bought a mixer and these big, ugly headphones and I would literally broadcast the cassette tapes in my bedroom. Ryan Seacrest Since when is anyone truly honest with anyone? Helen Fisher The process of art evolving is always one which has fascinated me.
