My feeling is that the hero has now been defined by phrases like the odious

one that we were all raised with - crimes does not pay. Of course it pays, you schmuck. That's not why we don't do it. We don't do it because it is wrong. Frank Miller On the professional side, those 18 years on the farm instilled my love for agriculture. Mike Johanns I've had a pretty charmed life, so there's nothing that I need to take too seriously right now. Larisa Oleynik Ability without honor is useless.

Noir is dead for me because historically, I think it's a simple view. I've taken

it as far as it can go. I think I've expanded on it a great deal, taken it further than any other American novelist. James Ellroy The whole world has changed after September 11th. Jerry Bruckheimer A new gadget that lasts only five minutes is worth more than an immortal work that bores everyone.

ball - you know, the one where he plays every position himself with nobody else on the field but him? Now that I think of it, Bugs is still my idol. You have to love a ballplayer like that.

Major Owens We always performed for our church, but we also just performed whenever the family got together. Debra Wilson One thing will lead to another and somebody will come up with a riff or a line or something we build from. Johnny Rivers Master books, but do not let them master you.

If you do, winning takes care of itself. Paul Bryant Saddam has committed many crimes against humanity and against his own people. Tom Cruise

Taxes are like abortion, and not just because both are grotesque procedures supported by Democrats.

Paul Twitchell I've always been very image prone, along the lines of bands like Black Sabbath and even Devo. Peter Steele

You don't learn from a situation where you do something well. You enjoy it and

you give yourself credit, but you don't really learn from that. You learn from trial and error, trial and error, all the time.

Ednita Nazario

As I approve of a youth that has something of the old man in him,

so I am no less pleased with an old man that has something of the youth. He that follows this rule may be old in body, but can never be so in mind.

I didn't even care that I didn't get paid. Ray Conniff It's not just being called to the ministry that counts. James Green Somerville

If you... scaled down human beings, scaled down society, if you land with a group

of little boys, they are more like a scaled-down version of society than a group of little girls would be. William Golding I've been performing since I was a child; my mother would have to pull me aside and tell me that I wasn't onstage. I was a cheerleader, president of choir, and in the school play. Aja Naomi King I am a very strong supporter of our government's view that it is important to engage with all countries around the world - very much including Russia. Chrystia Freeland I was wrapping up my stint on 'Daredevil' co-writing with Andy Diggle during the Shadowland story, when Marvel asked if I was interested in doing something else with DD but a bit different. When they explained the purpose of the 'Season One' books, I was intrigued - I'm a big advocate of books for people new to the medium - and said yes. Antony Johnston Spike Lee gave me the greatest reaction to the fact that I was this athlete-meets-artist, because I think he saw ...

I came to the United States in the early '80s and was welcomed with open

Helen Slater I left school at 16 but I wish I'd gone to university - I think I would have studied English literature. I had a knack for that. But I don't think you have the kind of wisdom at 16 to make that decision. Brendan Coyle The intelligent man who is proud of his intelligence is like the condemned man who is proud of his large cell. Simone We...

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...

The PhD system is the real root of the evil of academic snobbery. People who

have PhDs consider themselves a priesthood, and inventors generally don't have PhDs. Freeman Dyson I don't know nothing about communism. But I know the Albanians loved me. Same reason as anyone else loves me. Because I made them laugh. Norman Wisdom I am proud to be an American, and proud that such beliefs are at the core of our country and its citizens.

When I was young, my dad, a veteran who attended college on the GI Bill, lost his

 job at age 55 when the company he worked for was sold. My entire family pitched in - my mom took in sewing, and I got a minimum wage job after school. Tammy Duckworth Why would you envy a man who doesn't know the names of all the planets, is a 'high functioning' sociopath, and has no friends? Because Sherlock Holmes thinks in all the ways we wish we could. Kyle Hill I really do believe that inner beauty is so much more than any kind of outer beauty. Rachele Brooke Smith I studied arranging and orchestration a number of years ago, so I have a home studio and arrange about three-fourths of my songs on the computer. Since writing orchestration is tedious, I often put an arrangement on the keyboard and let someone better-qualified finish it. Brian Stokes Mitchell New Orleans is like my blood; it's not going anywhere.

The monetary impacts of malaria from the household to the global level are significant.

 Malaria tends to strike during harvest season, rendering families too sick and too weak to perform the work necessary to earn a living. Malaria-stricken families spend an average of over a quarter of their income on malaria treatment.

Noam Bardin We are all pleased when our names are pronounced and spelled correctly. Russell M. Nelson Music and dance is part of everything in New Orleans. So I grew up appreciating it all.

D'Arcy Carden Effective cybersecurity policy will depend on active and continued collaboration between public and private sectors.

Nick Petrie All Western cities face significant challenges on social integration. Our populations are booming, but social integration is not keeping pace. Rapid growth is a sign of our success, but it also puts stress on housing, infrastructure - and on communities. Sadiq Khan What I tell myself is that there is never going to be another 'Gone Girl' for me. I mean, I really believe that. I think I'll write other good books; I have faith in that. Gilli...

I didn't understand the Weber bar and how gravitational waves interacted with it.

 I sat and thought about it over a weekend, trying to prepare for the lecture for the following Monday. I asked myself how would I do it. The simplest way... was a thought experiment. Rainer Weiss Bollywood is getting bigger and better. Jacqueline Fernandez I've always loved magic. Elliot Knight In a sensibly organised society, if you improve productivity, there is room for everybody to benefit. Geoffrey Hinton As I explained when I announced that I was turning down a potential opportunity to serve as Secretary of Education, I voted for Hillary Clinton and was sorely disappointed she didn't win. Eva Moskowitz We have too few college graduates. We also have too few people who are prepared for college. David Autor One of the things I've always loved about genre, comic books, science fiction and fantasy is that there's a certain level of playfulness to them, and pure imagination and creativity. Noah Hawley There will always be a place for 'The Ultimate Fighter.' Mi...

We can't fool ourselves that they will ever be enough to overthrow Capitalism. If we're

serious about that we need to organise ourselves in our workplaces and communities, making the links with other workers internationally. John Blair I'll never get used to living without Mo, but the painful things that surround what happened to him aren't so painful any more-not so raw or so new. Robin Gibb When I was growing up, it was 'Communists'. Now it's 'Terrorists'. So you always have to have somebody to fight and be afraid of, so the war machine can build more bombs, guns, and bullets and everything. Cindy Sheehan We have to make sure that we are a force for peace and stability in the world, and that we're prepared to defend freedom and the security of the American people. Thad Cochran I think people are entitled to march without a permit. When you have a few hundred thousand people on the street you have permission. Tom Hayden Never rise to speak till you have something to say; and when you have said it, cease. John Witherspoon ...

I keep getting amazing things to bring to life. There's always something to discover with

'Dr. Bailey,' something that brings her home to the audience, something that makes people say, 'I know that woman. I work with that woman.' It's incredibly flattering and I'm still finding new things with her all the time. Chandra Wilson Writing a song is actually quite easy. Writing a good one is very, very difficult. Joe Elliott It is one of the most effective attitudes of the neurotic to measure thumbs down, so to speak, a real person by an ideal, since in doing so he can depreciate him as much as he wishes. Alfred Adler One travels so as to learn once more how to marvel at life in the way a child does. And blessed be the poet, the artist who knows how to keep alive his sense of wonder.
