Getting over someone is a grieving process. You mourn the loss

of the relationship, and that's only expedited by 'Out of sight, out of mind.' But when you walk outside and see them on a billboard or on TV or on the cover of a magazine, it reopens the wound. It's a high-class problem, but it's real.
Hank Azaria

Right from the first time we went to America in 1968, Led Zeppelin was a word-of-mouth thing. You can't really compare it to how it is today.
Jimmy Page

When I wake up on a Monday morning and I realise I don't have to go and work at the civil service, I really think I've won.
Paul Merton

You don't miss what you never had.

Google demotes search results that don't get clicked on.

What is it that really makes us, us? It's our collective intelligence. It's our ability to write things down, our language and our consciousness.
Louise Leakey

I felt like I'd been misplaced in the cosmos and I belonged in Maine.
Terry Goodkind

When I do short films, I try to do something completely out of my comfort zone, out of my element.
Brett Ratner

'The Lady' is a piddling little magazine that no one cares about or buys.

For me the purest and truest art in the world is science fiction.

For me, triathlons were something that was down to me and my fitness. Now, I

really enjoy the pain in the triathlon of chasing someone down. It's a bit like chasing down Nico Rosberg in the last few laps at Silverstone - it makes you feel alive. Jenson Button I have this horrible sense of humor where I think discomfort is funny - partly because I experience discomfort a lot, and it's a way of laughing at it and getting a release. Joaquin Phoenix As long as there are people who are not happy with their lot in life, as long as the United States is perceived to somehow be the cause of this unhappiness, there will be terrorism. Cofer Black I'm just not one of those naturally funny, relaxed actors who enjoy the spotlight and are so good at it. Heath Ledger Be sure of yourself, don't let anyone bully you, be a strong and independent woman or boy. Nicole Polizzi When I started studying tenor saxophone as a kid in Belfast, I did so with a guy named George Cassidy, who was also a big inspiration. Van Morrison We get sucked into the Inte

I remember when I was in third grade, I was in a classroom, and the teacher said,

'What do you want to do when you get older?' We were going around the room. I said, 'I want to be a professional basketball player.' She's like, 'That's not realistic.' I thought to myself, 'OK, watch.' Zach LaVine Professional wrestling is my first love, and I will continue to do that, but if I get a good offer for a film or a show, I would love to take it up. Sangram Singh I had this dream in my head of, if I got hired by 'SNL, what that moment would be like. And I dreamed that I would, like, collapse on the sidewalk and cry to the heavens. I got this call, and it didn't happen naturally. But I did it anyway because I wanted to have that moment. So I did collapse. Kate McKinnon It's funny: I don't feel like I have any particular privileged feeling for the Fifties. Todd Haynes Stock market goes up or down, and you can't adjust your portfolio based on the whims of the market, so you have to have a strategy in a position and s

Right before I go on stage, I'm absolutely terrified. My mind darts at many directions,

but the center of me is going forward into the performance. Sarah Brightman I think we have responsibilities to be active in the things we believe in, regardless of what our job is. At least in my lifetime, there has been a tremendous combining of activism and music, that came up in the era of Pete Seeger and the Weavers and Joan Baez and Bob Dylan and Peter Paul & Mary. Bonnie Raitt If I were put into a college lecture hall right now and told to pay attention for 45 minutes, it would be physically impossible for me to do. I'm one of those people who believe that ADD is a gift. It's tough to manage, but if you can harness it you can do great things. Jeff Kinney I don't sleep very much. I really like to work, though. I feel like a kid in a candy store. Donnie Wahlberg I've got the best shoe guy in the business. Nate Robinson I don't know the figures, but Hollywood must buy 100 rights for every movie that actually gets made. Bryan Burrough Organi

At the risk of appearing disingenuous, I don't really think of myself as 'writing humor.'

I'm simply reporting on the world I observe, which is frequently hilarious. Richard Russo I had people in my life who didn't give up on me: my mother, my aunt, my science teacher. I had one-on-one speech therapy. I had a nanny who spent all day playing turn-taking games with me. Temple Grandin We need to honor our troops who served and show our support by giving our men and women who served the best health care, the best educational opportunities, and the best job training available. They deserve nothing less. Barbara Lee I love my baby more than anything. He's like a Gerber baby. He's the cutest baby in the whole world. Bristol Palin I love a sandwich that you can barely fit in your mouth because there's so much stuff on it. The bread should not be the main thing on a sandwich. Adrianne Palicki Obviously, I like to write stories that are page-turners. But I always try my very, very hardest to be as factually true as possible. Jon Ronson My parents

My background was producing and writing and performing in television when I started out, and

I really missed that, that whole creative process that comes from sort of 'me' storytelling. Eric Bana When I first did 'The Fast and the Furious', I didn't want there to be a sequel on the first one. I thought, 'Why would you rush to do a sequel - just because your first film is successful?' Vin Diesel Put every light you have on a dimmer. Because after a certain age, we can play with the lighting and set it on how you look best on it. It's cheaper than plastic surgery. Bryan Batt I love that there's this tradition of being able to discuss the heaviest topics and the gnarliest stuff that goes down in people's lives in traditional Southern American music. Gillian Welch We repress the things we're scared of, but if we just look at and embrace the things we're scared of, it's a much fuller, richer life that's also not as scary. Gary Ross I was aware that the teaching of drawing was being stopped almost 30 years ago. A

Theatre is about the collective imagination... Everything I use on-stage is driven by the subject

matter and what you might call the text - but that text can be anything, from a fragment of movement or music to something you see on a TV. Simon McBurney I'm active, but I just don't like being hungry or feeling like I've deprived myself. I want to enjoy life. Suki Waterhouse I love a nice cooking show. It's as aesthetically pleasing as any other thing that tempts the senses, I suppose. Janeane Garofalo I wasn't really excited about doing television, to be quite honest. Ramon Rodriguez One thing that is constantly on my iPod is India Arie - I like her a lot; I listen to her a lot. I think she is just a spectacular artist. Audra McDonald It's so funny because the roles that I've been offered in the indie film world have been similar to each other, and the roles that I've been offered in the TV world have been similar to each other, but the TV roles and the indie film roles have been completely different. Courtney Ford Don't get me w

I'm an expert witness in a case that's in appeal about a guy who allegedly

misappropriated source code from a major, major company - he actually worked there and then apparently they found it on his laptop later. Kevin Mitnick To succeed in life in today's world, you must have the will and tenacity to finish the job. Chin-Ning Chu The faster you go, the shorter you are. Albert Einstein I don't consider myself to be that radical a thinker. Steven Pinker I would just love once to be called sexy. Just because it would make me something other than cute. Jennifer Love Hewitt I'm a winner each and every time I go into the ring. George Foreman People always ask me, 'Were you funny as a child?' Well, no, I was an accountant. Ellen DeGeneres

We struggle with the right words to describe the design process at Apple. But it

is very much about designing and prototyping and making. Jonathan Ive It started to weigh on me that I was responsible for the moves that had made me successful, but I wasn't reaping the lion's share of the profits, and that was problematic for me. Frank Ocean I see all four presidential candidates, the leading four, Cruz and Trump and Sanders and Clinton, all oppose TPP. Sherrod Brown Given how unflinching his productions have been, the 44-year-old McQueen is remarkably gentle and thoughtful - so much so that he will request a moment to consider a question, and turn it around in his head to get the shape and weight of it, before answering, occasionally with an excited rush of words in response. Elvis Mitchell Too often, politics is like bad theater. The mass media simplifies stories and personalities into their most basic, digestible and familiar bits. Listeners prefer songs they have heard before, after all. Kevin Hassett I had money, but I still didn't kno

After my kids were born I found myself incorporating my photography into different art endeavors

and from there it just blossomed. I have always had to have an outlet for my creativity and when my life became more about raising my family than the bright lights of show business exploring my photo art was a great outlet for me. Angela Cartwright Those who have happy homes seldom turn out badly. Daniel H. Hill A man does not know what he is saying until he knows what he is not saying. Gilbert K. Chesterton When one must, one can. Charlotte Whitton Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill. Buddha I mean being a writer is like being a psychoanalyst, but you don't get any patients. Al Alvarez Most of my mail comes from young people. Richard Wilson The use of methamphetamines has become pervasive in our country, and especially in rural areas. Collin C. Peterson I have made as much out of myself as could be made of the stuff, and no man should require more. Jean Paul

I find that on serialized television it's wiser to hit the ground and look forward,

and take the cues from the writers and the events happening, otherwise you just tie yourself in knots. Dallas Roberts I approach 'Fast & Furious 6' the same way I would approach a Sidney Lumet film. Getting into character's getting into character. Vin Diesel I don't think there's any better education than learning the intimate details of the lives of people who you most admire. Brandon Stanton Being bad at stuff is hard, and we all deal with it every day because we're all bad at stuff. Graham Moore I am fine playing 'Law & Order' and even the 'Jurassic' movies to be straight up, as far as the characters being portrayed there, but I never want to stay in straight-up land too long. I always wanted to do something where the character's world gets to be explored. B. D. Wong Mental health is such a complex thing and so difficult to diagnose. What is a mental problem? Who does have mental problems? What's the difference b
