I mean, look, teachers don't do their job for the money, obviously, because we pay

them ridiculously little amounts for what they put in. Most of them come out of their own pocket for materials and things to help the children and all that.
Phil McGraw

Steve Scalise I'm trying to enjoy my time at home and be around my kids. Rey Mysterio The thing that I love about 'Scandal' is every character, it's not clear if they're good or bad.

John Hickenlooper I grew up in London, one of four children. We were a very loud family, not a lot of listening, plenty of talking.

Damian Lewis When you're an independent artist, you need as much play or promotio...

There is constant talk about the intermarriage crisis: who is a Jew and how

we define a Jew. That doesn't go over well with young Jews trying to figure out whether they want to be a part of this thing or not. Tahl Raz I've been studying voice for quite a while, especially opera, for at least seven or eight years. Shelly Burch Like anything, I remember who I work for.

But I do say that I want you to be blessed. To me, prosperity is having health, having great children, having peace, good relationships. It's not about the money. Joel Osteen When I was between 2 and 3 years old, I got to know my first non-human being. The non-human was a cocker spaniel named Baba. We weren't friends, Baba and I, nor enemies. He wasn't my dog. He belonged to the people my mother worked for, and he lived in the house with them and us. Octavia E. Butler I was considered the luckiest of all the female gypsies since I landed the job as social secretary to Ambassador and Mrs. David Bruce at the American Embassy. Letitia Baldrige Some musicians like to decorate their walls with discs saying: '1 million records sold in America.' I prefer to put up discs marking...

Adam Scott When people start to think they're figuring out 'The Vampire Diaries,' it switches on you. Kat Graham It's a huge blessing to know you've done something that has affected people the way 'The Matrix' has. It's like, there's 'Star Wars,' and then there's 'The Matrix.' It's cool to be a part of that. Laurence Fishburne Voters aren't asking to be pandered to and aren't asking to be tricked.

believers. I'm just trying to say the way school need teachers the way Kathie Lee needed Regis that's the way yall need Jesus. Kanye West If you have love in your life, it can make up for a great many things that are missing. If you don't have love in your life, no matter what else there is, it's not enough.

Miguel de Cervantes When a reporter sits down at the typewriter, he's nobody's friend. Theodore White The ability to mingle with so many countries and cultures is extremely valuable for men and women. Bill Toomey I never met a man I didn't want to fight. Lyle Alzado The clear-sighted do not rule the world, but they sustain and console it. Agnes Repplier

I like people who are still actively creating in their life, who aren't set, I

don't feel like I'm set. And I don't have any baggage, for better or worse. I don't have any plants or pets or kids. I can lock the door and go. I need to be with somebody for whom that's okay.

Joe Cornish The thing I like about decathlon is also the thing I dislike: It's the maximum challenge, but also the maximum frustration. Ashton Eaton I mean, the country was founded on free enterprise. There's good things about it, and there's obviously bad things about it. Joan Cusack I am the woman with the cool vintage glasses... I am the proud wife beside her husband... I am the wr...

I don't want to give up living, because I enjoy it so much, and I

love working - I don't expect I'll ever have to stop. But Alzheimer's or something like that would render me pretty useless. Donald Sutherland I had a condition called gynecomastia - I had really big man-boobs, and I got a surgery for it. Josh Trank The idea of music coming from the Church is not new. Morgan Neville My life was filled with family in South Sudan. I am the seventh of nine children, and we grew up in what would be considered a middle-class family. We did not have a lot, but we did have more than a lot of other people. Alek Wek The long journey I've taken from where I started, and to end up at the Governors Awards as a governor - it was an emotional and powerful moment for me.

worrying about whether or not it's going to ruin their chances of getting into college. Darell Hammond If necessity is the mother of invention, it's the father of cooperation. And we're cooperating like never before. John Ashcroft Tennis was always there for me, which was lucky.

Brian Stableford The Internet removed geography as a significant obstacle that formerly prevented out-of-the-way places from being active players in the New Economy. Greg Gian...
