I absolutely believe that, come November 2012, I'm going to be governor of New Jersey

and not in any other office. But the fact of the matter is, if Gov. Romney, who's going to be our nominee, picked up the phone and called me to talk about this, I love my country enough and I love my party enough to listen.
Chris Christie

Paula Milne was really the first thing that drew me to 'The Politician's Husband.'
David Tennant

I'd like to jump out of a plane. I have a fear of heights I'd like to face.
Freida Pinto

When a woman forsakes her vulnerability because she's been hurt or because she lives in a dangerous world or doesn't want to be used, she loses something essential about being a woman.
John Eldredge

I'm not much of a horror fan. When it comes to ghost stuff and demon stuff, I can't watch that.
Steven Yeun

Bad guys are so much fun to play because you can go as far and as wacky as you want.
Joel Gretsch

The quality of CGI, audiences are now so used to it. They don't know what is CGI and what is real.
Jan de Bont

I started acting at the University of Michigan in my sophomore year.
David Alan Grier

What I don't want to do is go out there and not be able to mean it, you know?
Henry Rollins

I just change with the times. I really don't have a say in what's going on. Music was here before me.
Snoop Dogg

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

I try to get closer to reality, to get close to the contradictions. The cinema

world can be a real world rather than a dream world. Michael Haneke You'll hear people say now, 'Oh, I don't want to see something in 3-D. That's wrong, because what they've seen is 3-D done poorly. Michael Bay Jeremiah is a most melancholy prophet. He wails from beginning to end; he is often childish, is rarely indecent, and although it may be blasphemy to say so, he and his 'Lamentations' are really not worth reading. Annie Besant I make pictures and someone comes in and calls it art. Willem de Kooning I don't mean to be funny. Yogi Berra If I end up hosting 'Joker's Wild,' please shoot me. Anderson Cooper The thought of dancing scared me. A lot. Because I have absolutely no aptitude for it. Daniel Radcliffe To know all is not to forgive all. It is to despise everybody. Quentin Crisp I take it to be a principle rule of life, not to be too much addicted to any one thing. Terence I love awards, especially if I get t

A common pickpocket trick is for the operator to carry a shawl or overcoat carelessly

over the left arm, and to take a seat on the right side of the person they intend to rob in a streetcar or other vehicle. Harry Houdini With an audience it's now, there are no editors around. It's just me and the audience and it's what I like best. Rik Mayall I've always seen 'Y' as an unconventional romance between a boy and his protector. It was always about the last boy on Earth becoming the last man on Earth, and the women who made that possible. Brian K. Vaughan I've always driven big SUVs. I'm from Maine, and there's a point to driving a big SUV in Maine. I don't really need a 4WD in L.A., but on the 405, people are crazy, and you need a tank. I like the visibility factor. Rachel Nichols I'm a believer in what your record is. I am what my record is - some of it good, some of it bad, some of it hard to tell. Dan Rather Stem cell therapy has the potential to treat a multitude of diseases and illnesses, which up until now ha

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

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

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

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

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

For a competitive junkie like me, golf is a great solution because it

smacks you in the face every time you think you have accomplished something. That to me has taken over a lot of the energy and competitiveness for basketball. Michael Jordan Well, the first thing is that truth and power for me form an antithesis, an antagonism, which will hardly ever be resolved. I can define in fact, can simplify the history of human society, the evolution of human society, as a contest between power and freedom. Wole Soyinka When I talk about my artist parents, people imagine a bohemian environment and think, 'Aha, so that's where he gets it from!' But we were as white, straight, and middle-class as the next family on our white, straight, middle-class housing estate. David Mitchell I didn't do a movie until I was almost 30. I'm grateful for that because it gave me a chance to be an adult in the world and do work in the regional theater that very few people cared about. I loved it and I wanted to do that stuff.
