For skincare, I'm a Clean and Clear girl. Especially with the humidity in Georgia, Clean

and Clear has been pretty good to me with all of the makeup we have to wear. My skin really responds to that product. I'm also a big fan of Kiehl's under-eye avocado cream.
Candice Accola

L.A. is cool. If I could have the rest of my family out there, I think it would make it that much better for me. As far as work and the weather, you can't really beat it. I just wish they had the New York social life out there. That would make it perfect.
Michael B. Jordan

I am fully persuaded that thousands of our fellow-men might profit equally by a similar course to mine; but, constitutions not being all alike, a different course of treatment may be advisable for the removal of so tormenting an affliction.
William Banting

L.A. is fun, but it feels like one of those towns in the north of Scotland where there's an oil rig just off the coast and whether or not you work for the oil rig, everyone is connected to it.
Chris O'Dowd

What you discover when you look at creativity from the perspective of the brain is that it is universal. We're all creative all of the time, we can't help but be creative.
Jonah Lehrer

I'm the youngest in my family, and everyone is very funny, and I was always trying to keep up with them. I just loved making people laugh.
Lisa Kudrow

Then you get to the last half of the 20th century, Americans are getting very skeptical about their leaders and their institutions, and another place that is affected is parties and conventions.
Michael Beschloss

The music industry isn't converging toward dance music. Dance music is dance music. It's been around since disco - and way before disco. But there's different versions of dance music.

I've always been a strong feminist and felt that the image of models was detrimental to women. That whole thing really bothered me. I would think about quitting about once a week.
Saffron Burrows

The U.S. Constitution was meant to be universal, not just something that only America would observe. The principle of defending liberty for all people ideally should apply everywhere in the world.

In the next couple of years, part of every film's process is going to be

to adjust the images. And it'll be to change the color of an actor's tie or change the little smirky thing he's doing with his mouth. Or you can put in more clouds or move the tree a little bit. Robert Zemeckis There's a high school in Camden, New Jersey, I call the Jill Scott School. It's the Camden Creative Arts High School. Those teachers and kids are so passionate about what they do, and 98 percent of the senior class went on to college. Jill Scott I spent a good deal of time going back over my childhood, my midlife, to try to understand who I was. We're supposed to be complete and whole, and you can't be whole if you're trying to be perfect. Doing a life review helped me get over the disease to please. Jane Fonda For over a year I continued to submit mss, and have them rejected - the last few with rejection letters indicated the story was pretty good, but I was American. Nora Roberts Well, you know I have an office, my film offices. So I...

Urban Outfitters - I love it. It's almost like Forever 21, but for, like, the

24- to 25-year-old girl, getting a little bit older. Keke Palmer I'm the kind of person that believes that I would like to be evaluated by my entire career and my entire life, not two words that I would misspeak and then later apologize for. Kirk Cameron I often feel a discomfort, a kind of embarrassment, when I explain elementary-particle physics to laypeople. It all seems so arbitrary - the ridiculous collection of fundamental particles, the lack of pattern to their masses. Leonard Susskind Around age 11 or 12, I started playing jazz bass. From there, I went to electric bass and then guitar, which I kept up for a long time. Joshua Roman Space X's Elon Musk wants to colonize Mars with modules where earthlings can live. My teleporting technology is the number one way those individuals will get new information, new treatments of diseases that will occur on the planet, and new food sources. Craig Venter Brain cells are normally not sensitive to light. So by introdu...

But, we have had the debate in our country now for a number of years

as to whether or not free trade agreements are good for economic growth and economic opportunity in creating jobs and lifting people out of poverty. Donald Evans Reading is a majority skill but a minority art. Yet nothing can replace the exact, complicated, subtle communion between absent author and entranced, present reader. Julian Barnes I write plays, and I have a musical that's starting to get produced now. That's what I would love to do, but it's so hard. The only reason people are reading my plays and musicals is because I'm in movies. Jesse Eisenberg After reading Eminem's autobiography, which I did because I'm so interested in him as an artist, I respect him a lot. Even though he seems angry and mad, he's had to fight so many demons in his life. Taryn Manning To deprive a man of his natural liberty and to deny to him the ordinary amenities of life is worse then starving the body; it is starvation of the soul, the dweller in the body. Mah...

What makes me laugh about politics, sometimes, is it seems like once we get to

a point where our problems are seemingly unsolvable, it's because we're looking through a wrong point of view. If we turn the thing on its head, then maybe we might see it differently. Dave Davies When Sir Arthur Conan Doyle conceived Sherlock Holmes, why didn't he give the famous consulting detective a few more quirks: a wooden leg, say, and an Oedipus complex? Well, Holmes didn't need many physical tics or personality disorders; the very concept of a consulting detective was still fresh and original in 1887. Christopher Fowler The intensity with which Janis Joplin sings, you simply can't find a singer like that. It's almost scary the amount of emotion and energy and passion she puts into her performance. Michael Wadleigh I don't like sequels at all. If the movie's good the first time, why bother? Michael Lehmann The tenet of the separation of church and state is an unconstitutional doctrine. Sharron Angle Back in the day, the album was k...

If you're playing with somebody from another idiom, you can't react to them in the

same way that you react to somebody that is closer to your idiom. You don't fall into the same habits. You find a new way of communicating. David Sanborn Information is not knowledge, and knowledge is not wisdom. Reading - even browsing - an old book can yield sustenance denied by a database search. Patience is a virtue, gluttony a sin. James Gleick Superheroes are best imagined in comic books. The union between the written word, the image, and then what your imagination has to do to connect those allows for so much. Ta-Nehisi Coates I was looking for a new challenge and got an interest in trying to make a difference for families. You become more aware of how important families are. They are the key institution in our culture. The reason I got into politics was to try to make a difference for that key institution, whether it was tax policy, education policy, or whatever. Jim Jordan As a kid, I used to go to the library and take out all the art books. Cheech Marin At ...

When I started out in independent films in the early '70s, we did everything for

the love of art. It wasn't about money and stardom. That was what we were reacting against. You'd die before you'd be bought. Sissy Spacek The country needs someone with experience and determination to make tough decisions. All the money aside, it is important that Greece restore its reputation. Evangelos Venizelos I rememeber one time we were getting ready to go to South America and everything was packed up and in the car ready to go and I hid and I was crying because I really did not want to go, I wanted to play. I did not want to go. Michael Jackson Fashion is a dream. It's difficult, and there are many aspects of fashion that are very difficult, but if you love it like I do, because I really have a passion, now, for fashion, it's not easy, but nothing is easy in life. Carolina Herrera The answer was that in Burundi, having a clean bill of health has taken on a very particular meaning: unless and until you have paid for your hospital treatment, you si...

I don't ever sing classically when I am singing a contemporary score - I kind

of try to fit in whatever needs to happen. Kelli O'Hara Media and technology are our greatest assets. And yet, they are our most undervalued and underused assets. Now when I say that, people look at me like I'm crazy because every young person we know in the world is never without media, ever. Pat Mitchell Each man seeks his own interest, not the general interest. Let his own selfish interests be touched, and all concord is at an end. Sabine Baring-Gould As a kid, I did some running but especially loved biking and swimming. I grew up on Long Island, and our mom took us all the time to the ocean, so I grew up doing open-water swimming in the Atlantic. Alice Dreger I need a life outside of soccer. So I very much welcome, you know, new love interests and dating and friends and family. Hope Solo I would be a terrible director, I could never write anything. One of my great strengths is that I know all of my weaknesses. Topher Grace With each book you write you have...

If you are going to do something potentially for another eight years, you want it

to be something that you can really sink your teeth in and that's going to be different and interesting for this next period of time. Kiefer Sutherland If I'm going to be on national T.V. without my shirt on, I've got to look good. Chord Overstreet You should have a fear of some things. That doesn't mean it incapacitates you from your ability to figure out a way to deal with it. Chris Hadfield I am an enthusiastic European, and my first-hand experience of war and hatred has strengthened that conviction. I have seen how misguided unilateral nationalistic identities have brought destruction and death. I am, however, a world citizen, too. Klaus Schwab Food is entertainment now. People tune into 'Top Chef,' and they're not trying to replicate the recipes. Anthony Bourdain is entertainment. Instagramming your dishes is entertainment. David Sax I've had a very fortunate, very privileged life. I say it with all humility because it could change to...

My passion for gardening may strike some as selfish, or merely an act of resignation

in the face of overwhelming problems that beset the world. It is neither. I have found that each garden is just what Voltaire proposed in Candide: a microcosm of a just and beautiful society. Andrew Weil Arizona, our beautiful state, was built on mining. Copper is huge here, and now uranium. And then we have the federal government coming in, writing all these rules and regulations and telling us that we can't do this and we can't do that. We need concise, clear answers. Jan Brewer Japan, not only a mega-busy city that thrives on electronics and efficiency, actually has an almost sacred appreciation of nature. One must travel outside of Tokyo to truly experience the 'old Japan' and more importantly feel these aspects of Japanese culture. Apolo Ohno I remember New York in the '80s as a place with vacant lots that would eventually give over to nature. Weeds would grow up, squirrels would move in. That entropy is gone now. It's too expensive to let a vacant...

Earthlings are confused, insecure. And some Earthlings have no heritage: that's what leads them to

kill each other and rob 7-11 stores. Dick Dale I love to sing with my daughter. Audiences like it because a mother-daughter pairing is a curiosity. Montserrat Caballe When I'm dining out privately, I tend to avoid fine-dining venues; I like things to feel casual. Nobu Matsuhisa I've really enjoyed B.R.P.D. since its first days when Guy Davis was an artist on the title, and if anyone is looking for an end of the world Cthulhu apocalypse title, Mignola and Arcudi and the artists who work the title do a fantastic job. Ben Peek I'm very low maintenance. I use Simple wipes to take off my makeup, wash my hair with whatever's in the shower. Amber Le Bon Talent is crucial. It needs to be driven by motivation, but blind ambition isn't the key. Lily Cole Brazil has one of the greatest natural patrimonies in terms of biodiversity. Guilherme Leal I think it's one of those funny things - sometimes you're not really friends with somebody until you...
