Anthony Hitt

We are inhibited from aggression by the presence of another face, another person. We're aware that we're with a human being. On the Internet, we are disinhibited from taking into full account that we are in the presence of another human being.
Sherry Turkle

At their core, Americans all want the same basic things: a quality education for their children, a good job so they can provide for their families, healthcare and affordable prescription drugs, security during retirement, a strongly equipped military and national security.
Ruben Hinojosa

The nature of my work is my subjectivity meshed with other people's subjectivity. So there's a correspondence with that... Even if you write about me, it will reflect on you; everything is a kind of weird collaboration.
Tino Sehgal

One might not think of light as a matter of fact, but I do. And it is, as I said, as plain and open and direct an art as you will ever find.
Dan Flavin

People I look to: again, Hank Aaron, man you challenged the status quo and the records of the game. Monumental feats in an era where people didn't like that.
Dave Winfield

Acting is ephemeral. You can't hang it on a wall. You can't throw it off. And you can't bring it out of a closet. It's there one night and it's gone the next, at least with stage acting anyhow.
Charles Durning

We should not forget the principles of Christian mercy and justice: to welcome back those who are repentant and need our assistance, while encouraging the faithful to endure to the end.
Mark Skousen

That's what I always enjoyed about acting, the real adrenalin rush. My heart - still before I go on stage - crashing out of my chest. That's thrilling to me.
Billy Crudup

Having kids has been great for me. I have two beautiful step- kids, as well

as my own new daughter. They've really helped me to keep my feet firmly on the ground, and life is good. I feel like I'm the luckiest guy here. Matt LeBlanc I think playing somebody who's schizophrenic is such a lesson as an actor. It gets you totally out of your comfort zone, because you can't rely on your technique, your external stuff. You've really gotta look inward, in a way. Matt Dillon I grew up in the Methodist church and taught Sunday school, and one of my favorite passages of scripture is, 'in as much as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.' Matthew 25:40. Elizabeth Warren Every actor I ever meet goes, 'Ultimately I plan on having my own company and write and direct,' but yes, I too would love to write and direct a movie. I want to do a play, too. I want to do it all. Jason Schwartzman If the people in the audience are talking, you're being ignored. If the people are gazing at ...

When Paul Allen and I started Microsoft over 30 years ago, we had

big dreams about software. We had dreams about the impact it could have. Bill Gates My death is incidental, and I worry very much about my loved ones and, you know, would like to make it as easy as possible for them. Or wish I could will away whatever, you know, the sadness they will feel when I die. But for me, nothing. The world goes on. Barbara Ehrenreich I was watching TV one day, and there was this open casting call for extras, and my brother says, 'You wanna try out for this movie?' and I said, 'No, I'm okay.' And then he said, 'Do you wanna be on a DVD?' And I said, 'I wanna be on a DVD!,' so I tried out. CJ Adams Since I am from Spain, once the morning has gone, I like to take a nap while falling asleep to black and white movies. It feels less lonely. There is a comfort in hearing their voices, like when you're a child and your mother tells you a story before bedtime. Jordi Molla I can take all the negative energy and turn it ...

As a lawyer, I've dealt with really serious offences, and the public rarely hear what the true

impact is on the victims' families. When you hear it from the mouths of victims, your entire approach changes, because it could happen to anybody, and they articulate that in such a powerful way. Robert Rinder Self-imposed discipline with a bent towards results rather than 'creative' and sustainability spending is unfortunately not the norm in the marketing industry. Ryan Holiday The Libertadores is sensational, but the Champions League... The first time I heard the anthem was a really special feeling. It's like being in a video game; it's living the dream of every child. Neymar You can't reason with gang violence: you can't talk to it, sit it at the table, and negotiate with it. Greg Boyle Growing up, I did not have many friends with parents who were together. Adam Scott The TV mini-series is kind of a lost genre because the networks have given up on it. Bonnie Hammer The 'Bolton News' is the best place for online comments. They say I'm an abs...

Children want to mimic adults. They notice when you choose to prepare fresh vegetables over

calling in another pizza pie for dinner. They will see that food made with love and care outweighs going through the drive-through window. Marcus Samuelsson I've been drawing authors and politicians for newspapers for many years. I try to read up on the person; in the case of authors, read one of their books. I watch interviews via YouTube and collect pictures via the Internet. Siegfried Woldhek I have no interest in becoming a tax exile and living somewhere I don't want to - I just want to be at home with my family. Rafael Nadal We know that once we stop learning and call ourselves learned, we become useless members of the scientific society. Christian de Duve I started in the supermarket business in the early '70s. And by '75, '76, I realized you don't have a business unless you own the real estate. John Catsimatidis I'm really interested in smells. I think I'd like to own a perfumery someday. Kurt Cobain I never really liked the Gosp...

In Giacometti's work, the armature has once again become the life-line of the

sculpture, and also, he's brought back to sculpture a nervous sensitivity which the 'pure carving' side of sculpture can lose sight of altogether. Henry Moore It's really fun to get into that process of creating an album and telling a story. I really love it. Gretchen Parlato If I got a chance to play with another great player, I want to do that. I mean, the objective is to win. Charles Barkley I'm still 19, and I've got a lot to learn. I've got to keep improving and not get too carried away with myself. Dele Alli There is power in helping people get excited about what they do and inspiring and motivating them to unleash their full potential. Denise Morrison When we fought for freedom, for the establishment of a Jewish state, we didn't send a questionnaire to the Jewish nation asking if it wanted a Jewish state. Yitzhak Shamir I had originally wanted to be a lawyer. Even when I went to college and majored in engineering, I still thought I'd get a la...

Can we achieve 140 mpg fuel economy? You bet. Just get the bureaucrats out of the way, and

Yankee ingenuity will do the rest. Robert Zubrin Nature is the fountain's head, the source from whence all originality must spring. John Constable I'm constantly struggling in interviews to engage and finish sentences, because I am being asked personal questions from somebody I don't know. Katherine Waterston I know actors with promising careers who get blown out of the business, never to return. Everett McGill I don't think that Argentinian cinema is well-known outside Argentina the way it should be. Guillermo del Toro Tobe Hooper - he did my favorite horror movie, 'Texas Chain Saw Massacre.' It's still one of my favorite horror films. Fred Willard I have great Indian genes! You know, I'm lazy. I want to take advantage of the fact that I have a great metabolism. When I start getting fat, I'll work on it! I like food, and I don't like the gym, and as long as I look like this without doing anything, why bother? Priyanka Chopra The idea of a comp...

I never stopped DJing through the entire 'Game of Thrones' process. I never saw the

need to stop because I do love it so much. Kristian Nairn R-rated comedies make as much money as PG-13. And I think the audiences wanna be shocked. Especially with comedy. Nicholas Stoller In 'Maaya,' I'm going shirtless for the first time in my career. My producer requested me to take off my shirt in one of the scenes. I have been working extremely hard to flaunt a perfect body for the scene. Harshvardhan Rane When every word is parsed for ill intention, regardless of who is speaking or why, we become so afraid we'll offend that we stop trying to communicate with people we don't understand. Marti Noxon I don't understand when you say I'm a man or I have a deep voice. I know I'm a female, so there's no question for me. Caster Semenya We had a field day before anyone knew anything about shorting. It was almost a license to steal. Nowadays, it's a license to get hosed. Julian Robertson Now we're dealing with a younger generation of terrorists ...

Environmental problems cannot be resolved here the way they are resolved in other countries. I

heard that 80 per cent of the environmental problems in the U.S. are solved in court. That can't happen here. Ma Jun I don't care where you went to school. There - have I made your day? No? All right, I'll go further: I also don't care what your dad did for a living or how your mum voted. Nor do I mind whether you ate your tea in front of the telly, dinner at the kitchen table, or supper in the dining room. Robert Webb The word 'art' interests me very much. If it comes from Sanskrit, as I've heard, it signifies 'making.' Now everyone makes something, and those who make things on a canvas with a frame, they're called artists. Formerly, they were called craftsmen, a term I prefer. We're all craftsmen, in civilian or military or artistic life. Marcel Duchamp I was an anxious kid. I worried about getting homework finished, even back when homework didn't count for anything. Andrea Seigel You really do have the license during fashio...

My parents moved to American Samoa when I was three or four years old. My

dad was principal of a high school there. It was idyllic for a kid. I had a whole island for a backyard. I lived there until I was eight years old and we moved to Santa Barbara. Eric Stoltz If you accept the belief that baptism incorporates us in the mystical body of Christ, into the divine DNA, then you might say that the Holy Spirit is present in each of us, and thus we have the capacity for the fullness of redemption, of transformation. Thomas Keating My first name, Benjamin, dates back a thousand years earlier to Benjamin - Binyamin - the son of Jacob, who was also known as Israel. Jacob and his 12 sons roamed these same hills of Judea and Sumeria 4,000 years ago, and there's been a continuous Jewish presence in the land ever since. Benjamin Netanyahu I was cast in 'Thor' and I'm cast as a Nordic god. If you know anything about the Nords, they don't look like me but there you go. I think that's a sign of the times for the future. I think we will see...

We need to establish boundaries between our personal and professional lives. When we don't, our

work, our health, and our personal lives suffer. Travis Bradberry Originality is dangerous. Salman Rushdie I think the War on Terror is really absurd, especially coming from a country that is founded on terrorism. Alice Walker If I hear about a tsunami that hit Asia, hundreds of people have lost their lives, and you see it and you hear about it, but you still brush your teeth, still have to go on with your day. But let you get information about one person who you're close to or you're intimate with, it has an almost paralyzing effect. Ryan Coogler Once you have a computer that can do a few things - strictly speaking, one that has a certain 'sufficient set' of basic procedures - it can do basically anything any other computer can do. This, loosely, is the basis of the great principle of 'Universality'. Richard P. Feynman My plays are always pushing towards cinema anyway. They're down and dirty, real and more fun. Martin McDonagh I consider m...
