Because t...

Stephen Sondheim Because there's no structural barrier to joining 4chan, the community is really dynamic; for every five people that leave, five new people join, bringing their perspective and culture. A lot of other communities get set in their ways. Christopher Poole Money has never been my drive. I have never seen the shortage of money in my life, so for me, I don't want to buy a silk pillow or a private jet...

Ranbir Kapoor I used to work as a volu...

if Brad Pitt was singing the song - would it be funny? A twist is important when it comes to writing lyrics.

Jennifer Granholm Sometimes shooting on a smaller scale, as long as things don't blow out of proportion, is very liberating. Daniel Craig Because I'm so known as a meat-chef, when I talk about Meatless Monday some people look at me like I've lost my mind. I'm like, look, I'm not saying beef and pork is bad, I love it and I eat it six days a week. Michael Symon I think character is permanent, and issues are transient. James Stockdale It is true that I was born in Iowa, but I can't speak for my twin sister. Pauline Phillips I came from a town of maybe 30,000 people.

as to the points most needful to salvation. John Wycliffe It's funny, because there are so many stereotypes out there about actors and movie stars in general, but I've had a great opportunity to meet a lot of them, and maybe it's just because they don't behave that way around me, but I rarely see that kind of abuse of power.

Susumu Tonegawa Not everybody is a great rapper; not everybody lives for the art of lyricism. Wale From my perspective, I absolutely believe in a greater spiritual power, far greater than I am, from which I have derived strength in moments of sadness or fear.

Keep it a real small circle because if you do that, not too much is going to go bad for you.

it's up to copyright creators to come up with new solutions that deal with the reality of the world we're living in today. Kim Dotcom I don't commit to things unless I have my A-team to do it.

Everything is still working. I attribute it to eating a lot of proces...

in the studio. So while I had all these ornate arrangements, I didn't have any songs. St. Vincent I'm an American. I'm for prosperity.

that whole 'Screw you, I'm awesome for what I do' attitude, which I really look up to and want to be a part of. Mary Lambert In the late 1990s, I wrote a book from the point of view of a young black woman who has barricaded herself in her college dorm room, pursued by a man, either real or imagined, who finally materializes as the father she has never known. Susan Shreve I don't party. I'm a total homebody. I like hanging out with my cat, and I've actually been known to stay home and knit. Bethany Joy Lenz I'm loving 'We Are Young,' by Fun.
