I had my guitar at the set of 'Lost in Space' every day. I was

the only one in the cast who had a stereo in his dressing room. So while I was in school or when I was in there working with Dr. Smith and the robot, half the rest of the cast was in my trailer listening to their records that they would bring.

I believe that we all need to do charitable work. It should be taken seriously in the area of education, as someone from the industry.
Goldie Hawn

Emma Stone

I am an unusual Irishman. I'm probably Ireland's third most famous Jewish son.

Linda Ronstadt

I live for the text. It's my job.

One night I was standing on Third Avenue playing my guitar, when this big Irish

policeman came strolling by, and stopped to listen to my singing and playing. When I was done, he politely handed me a ticket for disturbing the peace, while at the same time telling me how much he liked my voice. I wish I still had that ticket. Frank Stallone I've got four piercings in my left, so we've dubbed my right one the 'period drama ear.' I have to be filmed from that side when I do emotional close-ups in 'Downton.' Jessica Brown Findlay When I record an album I'm trying to get as close as possible to that perfect moment. Lou Reed I'm not an activist. Werner Herzog I'm very emotional. That's why I wear shades a lot. Duane Chapman Hollywood embraced me in the late '80s because there was a good project I was in and it was different.

Christie Brinkley I think people in electronic music are trying to get these big features: 'Oh my gosh, I'm gonna get the big

I know what it's like to have a broken heart. I know what it's like

to feel pain: When my songs don't become hits, it breaks my heart. There are a million ways to break a heart. I can relate. Diane Warren Boys, particularly, like stories where they can have images in their imagination, where they can go to scary places and experiment with what can happen.

Scott Weiland I actually got more attention from one episode of 'The Sopranos' than I did from two years of 'The L Word.' Sarah Shahi 'American Sniper' is a movie.

Shaun Tan When I was in fourth grade, I had a lot of upheaval in my life. Both of my pa

I mean, I get letters in the mail because I had a heart defect when

I was one, I had surgeries and stuff. And so you get these letters in the mail that just, they are crazy, they are just like, yes, well our son is dealing with the same thing and we saw you on TV and I mean it is such a cool thing to inspire and kind of give hope.

We believe that in times like these we should turn to each other, not on

each other. We believe that government has a role to play, not in solving every problem in everybody's life but in helping people help themselves to the American dream. That's what Democrats believe. Deval Patrick The purpose of money is to trade for things that make you happy. So if you can bypass money and get directly to the happy, you've saved a lot of trouble. And it makes others happier, too, when you organize your business around non-monetary things. Derek Sivers I would like to do something dark or small. I love independent films.

Clara Schumann Well, shoes, bags and clutches are usually my big weaknesses - my husband always laughs when I call them 'investment pieces.' Emily Giffin I've alw

in Canada. These are extreme examples of removal of freedom of expression - to actually lose a language and the ability to express that culture. John Ralston Saul If I had my druthers, I would be a brain in a jar, with a burlap skirt around the cart I'm on - I don't attend to my physical being much. Kate McKinnon In New Zealand, we have a thing called 'tall poppy syndrome,' which, you might not have heard of it, but it's essentially where - it happens in small populations usually, but can actually happen in the U.K. - where, if someone sticks out, they get their head cut off because they are being outside the ordinary or they are showing off.

That's the nature of it.John Rocha I think a certain degree of pessimism is actually helpful to love.Alain de Botton Most people can't see beauty and love. I see our music as medicine.Maurice White My own ambitions were eclectic.

Despite my proficiency at science, I decided against it and instead went on to study filmmaking.Anand Mahindra I have be

I'm not an easy person to love. There are lots of times when I'm a

very good boyfriend, but there are times when I'm useless. I mean, I'm a mess around the house. I talk nonstop. I become obsessed with things. Daniel Radcliffe I really like reaching out and seeing the audience - they're potential audiences! And on occasion I can make them excited about going to the theater again, if they've ceased or gone less.
