Grissom comes from a place where we know he had a deaf mother, he was

raised in a silent household, on some level, had a father who potentially was not around and he learned what he knew by himself in the back yard, with bugs and animals. He's not comfortable being a supervisor and that's his problem.
William Petersen

Yoga is the perfect way to de-stress and work out at the same time.
Shannon Elizabeth

If you look not just at the Arab Spring, but at what I call the 'Youth Spring' that has started in Europe, young people are starting to find a voice, and they are not looking to the traditional media to reflect that.
Shane Smith

In order for a man to feel whole, he needs someone to look up to and someone to look up to him.
Pamela Anderson

Alan Greenspan is unskilled; you don't take the unskilled seriously.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Directing, writing, producing and starring is just too tough.
Stephen Chow

The religious idea of God cannot do full duty for the metaphysical infinity.
Alan Watts

No one is above the law, not even the president. I believe perjury does meet at least the definition of high misdemeanor.
Nancy Johnson

I use cinematic things in a theatrical way on stage, and in film I use theatrical techniques in a cinematic way.
Julie Taymor

To anger female voters in America is to tread on the tiger's tail. Women turn

out in huge numbers, and they are well aware of how their bodies work and what they need. Henry Rollins We have to be bold in our national ambitions. First, we must win the fight against poverty within the next decade. Second, we must improve moral standards in government and society to provide a strong foundation for good governance. Third, we must change the character of our politics to promote fertile ground for reforms. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo Conflict is always fun to play. Autumn Reeser I'm really a normal person. Dakota Johnson Growing up as a child actress, there was much I got to do and yet so much that I missed out on. Therefore, when I had kids, I made it a point to make sure that they could do anything and everything that they dreamed of. A great education was definitely right at top of my list! Kim Richards I did vote Obama. But I've never believed in the authenticity of the two-party system. Marilyn Manson Sailing is a big outlet for me. It's

People don't want to have to justify their privileges; they don't want to have to

justify having access to the power and resource that wealth brings. And by not talking about it, they are able to hold onto their power without being questioned, and I think that makes them feel more secure. Jamie Johnson The problem is that television executives have got it into their heads that if one presenter on a show is a blonde-haired, blue-eyed heterosexual boy, the other must be a either black gay or a lesbian. Chalk and cheese, they reckon, works. Jeremy Clarkson The first person besides my mother who believed in me was a man whose last name I never knew. He was my boss, the manager of Swenson's Ice Cream shop. Mona Simpson After qualifying for a B.Sc. in pharmacology, I spent a few months in Sheffield University as a research worker in the pharmacology department but then went back to Oxford to the Nuffield Institute for Medical Research in order to study for a D. Phil. with Dr. Geoffrey Dawes. John Vane It's interesting - years ago, I had such bad stage

The vast majority of people who speak to me say they have had brilliant care.

When they are critical, their concern tends not to be directed at the medical side but the ancillary things that surround it, such as helping patients to eat meals, cleanliness, and making sure that when patients have a problem, they are listened to. Andrew Lansley When I first became recognizable from appearing on television, I abused my notoriety as much as I possibly could, at the expense of both my health and personal relationships. Steve-O I am used to wrangling crocodiles. Bindi Irwin I have learned that I am a one-woman man. Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu A lot of my literature deals with these people who are somehow magnetic because they have that ability to step over lines. Sarah Hall I think that the destructive element is too much neglected in art. Piet Mondrian In Georgia, apparently, men are men and women are women - at least in their folk dance. Robert Gottlieb I'm the third or fourth generation of actor in my family; I'm sure if they were butche

I know from my own experience and from other

people in the business that when you come from a place where nobody knew who you were and then there is this sudden shift to where everybody now knows who you are, there's an adjustment that you have to make. Kristen Wiig The Four Seasons was making me popular in Britain, but EMI America had no interest in making that happen in the States, so I just had a classical career there. Nigel Kennedy I think I sort of blossomed, so to speak, around 17. I started to get hips and put on weight, which I was very happy about. And that's when I met this agent, who told me I had to lose 10 pounds. I said, 'You've got to be kidding me. I finally got it on - I'm not losing it!' Tricia Helfer I'm just taking one match at a time. Caroline Wozniacki I like to sing along to Annie Lennox and pretend to be as sassy as her. Sophie Thompson Let's be real: It's just TV; it's just entertainment. Chi McBride No plan survives contact with the enemy. Tommy

The POW camps of North Vietnam were packed with Air Force and Naval Academy graduates.

The six midshipmen in my Naval Academy class of 1968 who served as liaisons between the Marine Corps and the Brigade of Midshipmen later suffered nine Purple Hearts in Vietnam, and one man killed in action. Jim Webb I was a book lover from the beginning. I loved, love, words and images and ideas, the ways a book can make you feel things deeply or help you understand something you never even knew there were words for. Deb Caletti Men think we can't do two things at once. They can't, but we can. Women are more resilient. Dina Merrill I think I'm an artistic radical, and I think I'll be recognized as one. I'm a really good musician and a songwriter, but I think my real legacy will be as a radical. Billy Corgan I had a somewhat religious upbringing. Not strict, but it was there, and I'm kind of thankful for that. If you grow up just watching MTV, that's its own form of religion, and it's not even based on happiness or communal responsibility. I m

I didn't have any expectations of what my family life would end up being like.

But I've been very blessed in my life to have a wife who loves me and supports me and is able to be in my band and travel with me. Josh Turner Getting to the Olympics was, has always been, my swimming dream since I was 8 or 9 years old. You know, right after I started swimming it was, 'I want to make an Olympic team. That's where I want to be.' Eric Shanteau I like to give dimension to shots inside action scenes. It's demanding because you have to rehearse a lot of things happening at the same time and frame all those things in a shot. But I feel like when you accomplish that then you've got a cool action scene. Jose Padilha Doesn't matter if you're a Democrat or a Republican in Michigan. We want jobs in Michigan. Debbie Stabenow Sampling, statisticians have told us, is a much more effective way of getting a good census. Rob Lowe As his vice president for eight years, I learned more from Ronald Reagan than from anyone I encountered in all

The more consciously democratic Americans became, however, the less

they were satisfied with a conception of the Promised Land, which went no farther than a pervasive economic prosperity guaranteed by free institutions. Herbert Croly The Tea Party was born out of the disgust many Americans felt early in the financial crisis upon learning that the federal government was even contemplating reducing the principal on some troubled mortgages. Mark Zandi For a long time I thought I could deal with my anger and hostility on my own. But I couldn't. I denied that it had affected me, and yet I was so frantic on the inside with other people: I needed to be constantly reassured. Kelly McGillis When I first got into the league, I tried to fit in. Now I don't care. Dwyane Wade Art is good, bad, boring, ugly, useful to us or not. Jerry Saltz Regis and I were inducted into the original Bronx Walk of Fame. Robert Klein I'd have to say Bali's my favorite place that I've visited. Christopher Meloni I don't know why people are

When you see the films of certain young directors, you get the impression that film

history begins for them around 1980. Jacques Rivette The most famous person in my phone is Lindsay Lohan. We starred in 'Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen' together in 2004 and we've stayed in touch. Adam Garcia Almost every girl falls in love with the wrong man, I suppose it's part of growing up. Natalie Wood The money in the schools overpowers the principles of the purpose. Miroslav Vitous I have been traveling to every corner of the great state of Florida. I've met some great people and we've had an honest discussion about the failures of Washington. Adam Hasner I'm obsessed with books. David Sylvian The men and women of the CIA are a national treasure. John O. Brennan It's a mistake to confuse pity with love. Stanley Kubrick I was always loud and obnoxious and giggly and funny. Krysten Ritter I am careful about my conduct because I know this cause requires clean men. James Larkin

Being able to wear contacts, you don't have to worry about your glasses falling off

or how you look during your beam routine. As soon as they're in, literally two minutes later, you forget that they're on. Laurie Hernandez 'LIFE Magazine' decided to do a story about a young actress in Hollywood in 1954. And I made the cover. And I remember that the fellow who was doing the story on me said, 'Listen, kid, I just want you to know, if Eisenhower gets a cold, you're off the cover.' Rita Moreno For me, acting is a long-term thing. I'm not in a hurry to make it. I have no desire to explode onto the film industry. I still want to be acting when I'm 60. Gabriella Wilde I love Aaliyah, I love Brandy, I love Monica. Normani Kordei Most MBA graduates are hungry for intellectual glamour. Ravi Subramanian I love standing on the pitch too much to focus on anything else - if I want to be a coach or something. Bastian Schweinsteiger Developing countries are losing significant tax revenues through corporate tax dodging. Winnie Byanyima If society b

Do you need to train two hours a day? Probably not. The reason

why my celebrity clients have to train two hours a day is because their endurance level is so strong. For Madonna to get results and keep results, it's like a professional athlete training - she has to push harder. Tracy Anderson I really want younger audience members to see kids in their early 20's playing Frank's music and to be inspired to take things to a higher level themselves. Dweezil Zappa I do take very good care of myself, and I'm always in love. And by that I mean I have an appetite for life. I'm in love with beauty and things and people and love and being in love, and those things I think, on the inside, show on the outside. Gloria Vanderbilt He did once say the time to worry is when they stop writing about you but again I think that was pretty token of the coverage was very respectful, he rather resented the intrusions on his private life, but that was about it. Anthony Holden I believe that for lots of churches and religious institutions, t
