I think the best thing I can say about it

I think the best thing I can say about it - and I think the

best thing you can say about anything, really - is that 'The Motorcycle Diaries' made me feel like my home was bigger; it made me feel at home anywhere in Latin America.
Gael Garcia Bernal

I've hosted the Soul Train awards, the American Music Awards... and I had my own talk show. So if I can't host by now, what the hell can I do?
Queen Latifah

'Something/Anything?' was kind of a different record, since I'm playing everything myself. A lot of the songs on there have a particular kind of instrumentation that is much like a guitar quartet, and in some ways, it's an exceptional song on that record because so much of the writing on 'Something/Anything?' is piano-oriented.
Todd Rundgren

I like shocking people just because, like, I can wear a dress, too. Not even for people to go, 'Oh she's grown up,' but to show people that I'm actually a girl.
Maisie Williams

The censor boards are mere redundant forces conspiring to keep the 'bold' films out of reach of the audience.
Anurag Kashyap

Markets are lethal, if only because of ignoring externalities, the impacts of their transactions on the environment.
Noam Chomsky

The earth's crust has not yet stopped heaving and plunging under our feet. Mountain ranges are still being thrust up on the horizon. Granites are still growing under the continental masses. Nor has the organic world ceased to produce new buds at the tips of its countless branches.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Love of, and respect for, the humble routine of everyday life and its creatures was the only moral commandment which carried conviction when I was a child.
Halldor Laxness

Politics means facing up to hard choices and facing down prejudice, short-termism, the easy, tempting court of knee-jerk public reaction.
Charles Kennedy

Let me tell you the story about Massachusetts under Governor Romney. It did fall to

47th out of 50 in jobs creation. Wages went down when they were going up in the rest of the country. He left his successor with debt and a deficit, and manufacturing jobs left that state at twice the rate as the rest of the country. Stephanie Cutter I want people to just to see, all you got to do is have a little faith. Fantasia Barrino Each time that I have two or three days off, I'm off somewhere in California. Lizzie Brochere I can't even remember not wanting to go to film school. Danny McBride At the age when Bengali youth almost inevitably writes poetry, I was listening to European classical music. Satyajit Ray The tropical rain forests are a telling example. Once cut down, they rarely recover. Rainfall drops, deserts spread, the climate warms. James Lovelock I like to fish. Fishing is always a way of relaxing. Tom Felton I worked in restaurants the first half of my life. Bradley Cooper I never pretended to be a great actor. Joel McCrea Light is ...

It's really rare for people to have a successful start-up in this industry without a

breakthrough product. I'll take it a step further. It has to be a radical product. It has to be something where, when people look at it, at first they say, 'I don't get it, I don't understand it. I think it's too weird, I think it's too unusual.' Marc Andreessen I try to make my bed every day for mental health. Coming home to an unmade bed or a room with clothes all over will depress me. David Alan Grier Cookbooks have all become baroque and very predictable. I'm looking for something different. A lot of chefs' cookbooks are food as it's done in the restaurants, but they are dumbed down, and I hate it when they dumb them down. Mario Batali I'm not even sure that any of us are ever ready for anything. We can be ripe, or over-ready, but what is that moment when we're actually ready? Andrea Riseborough English muffins with avocado is one of my favorite breakfasts. Mia Hamm Online media is increasingly influential in fashion. ...

My dad made a film called 'Willow' when he was a young filmmaker, which screened

at the Cannes film festival, and people were booing afterwards. Bryce Dallas Howard Despite the strength of the feminist movement in the 1970s and beyond, a fable has persisted that educated women are rejected as marriage partners. Karen DeCrow When the Transportation Security Administration adopted body scanners at airports, activists wrote the Fourth Amendment on their underwear in metallic paint readable by the new devices. Dana Priest I consider myself a line drive hitter with power. I just try to put my best swing on the ball every time. Albert Pujols I get to have Sunday lunch at my mum's, pick my nephew up from school now and then: it's a very normal life. Vicky McClure Homosexuality is acceptable in the West. Najib Razak Negative emotions like hatred destroy our peace of mind. Matthieu Ricard I majored in criminal justice. I like 'CSI,' all that, '24.' I watch those shows on A&E, if I watch TV. I don't really watch TV shows. ...

I wish the government and the Minister of Justice would address these legal and constitutional

arguments, but they refuse to. They want Canadians to go blindly into their brave new world, but it is not wise for a society to move blindly in any direction. Stockwell Day If I had not some strength of will I would make a first class drunkard. Ernest Shackleton Green is the prime color of the world, and that from which its loveliness arises. Pedro Calderon de la Barca I don't want the kind of theater that I love and grew up seeing to die out. Jerry Herman One must think like a hero to behave like a merely decent human being. May Sarton Beyond this day, no thinking person could fail to see what would happen. Oskar Schindler No matter how many helicopters there are, when it comes down to it there is the camera and you. Jacqueline McKenzie

You travel across the country, you visit departments, you give talks, you talk about the

work at your laboratory - what's going on, what the opportunities are there - you talk about your own research. Frank Press In the adversity of our best friends we often find something that does not displease us. Brigham Young Sound science must be our guide in choosing which problems to tackle and how to approach them. Frank Luntz Monkeys are superior to men in this: when a monkey looks into a mirror, he sees a monkey. Malcolm de Chazal I really wanted the MTV Award the most, It was a golden popcorn container and it looks really neat. Kirsten Dunst The only actress they didn't test was Garbo. Must have been her accent. Judy Holliday If civilians are going to be killed, I would rather have them be their civilians than our civilians. Stuart Symington

Some people have much more pull than other people. But when I say

that the public has ultimate responsibility, I'm not saying it in a moral sense. I'm just saying it in the sense of what is it that's really going to bring change. Jared Diamond Social improvement is attained more readily by a concern with the quality of results than with the purity of motives. Eric Hoffer Composers should write tunes that chauffeurs and errand boys can whistle. Thomas Beecham It is common for those that are farthest from God, to boast themselves most of their being near to the Church. Matthew Henry As far as a cocktail, I do like good wines, basically with meals, and good champagnes. Bobby Sherman Every man is rich or poor according to the proportion between his desires and his enjoyments. Samuel Johnson We are tomorrow's past. Mary Webb

My house was very strange. I didn't do things other kids did because my parents

were very strict - I stayed at home, quiet in my room. Alessia Cara I always liked it when people go back in time to discover things about themselves, like with 'A Christmas Carol' and you're getting a tour of your life by the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future. John Cusack I was so driven in high school but did sometimes wish I could go out with friends, go to parties, and be a normal teenager. But having mum as my coach at home meant I couldn't sneak around. Jessica Fox The basic idea for what became 'Epic Mickey' began at the Disney Think Tank. Warren Spector There is a Mount Sinai for every child of God if he only knows where to find it. Karl G. Maeser I wouldn't call myself a 'literary critic,' just a book reviewer. Neel Mukherjee Denial is a very powerful thing. Jane Velez-Mitchell Most people don't watch a movie four or five times; they watch it once. James Gray I can't inhabit my characters until I kn...

All my day is spent dealing with other people. When I come home I like

it to be empty. The presence of others in my house kind of annoys me. I love coming home and shutting the doors. I feel brain dead. I'm relatively available, but not to live with. Graham Norton The plain fact is that there are no conclusions. James Jeans Anything that changes your values changes your behavior. George A. Sheehan I will always vote on the side of freedom and our right to keep and bear arms. Mel Martinez I always felt people should live with animals. Dick Dale Possession without obligation to the object possessed approaches felicity. George Meredith I'm only interested in fiction that in some way or other voices the very imagination which is conceiving it. John C. Hawkes

That's where I got my start and where I'll continue to work, but I can't

tell you the number of films between Drugstore Cowboy and Curly Sue that I auditioned for and wanted that didn't choose me. Kelly Lynch I haven't spoken English with native speakers in several months. I've been speaking Arabic. John Walker Lindh Today you can't go by the titles of the shows to know what the content of the show may be. Donna Douglas It hinders the creative work of the mind if the intellect examines too closely the ideas as they pour in. Friedrich Schiller We create our own unhappiness. The purpose of suffering is to help us understand we are the ones who cause it. Willie Nelson We all want peace. Unfortunately, there are times when peace must be defended by fighting terror and tyranny. James H. Douglas, Jr. It is hard to say why politicians are called servants, unless it is because a good one is hard to find. Gerald F. Lieberman

To be honest, there are so many things I learned in acting school beyond the

method; it was a safe place to practice. So acting school was about exercising that acting muscle and doing it every single day - and having people tell you that you're bad every single day! Which pushes you to work even harder. Jane Levy I gave up writing for seven years (very biblical) and picked it up again, still clueless and still seeking the exotic, when I was twenty-one. David Bergen I like a lot of sports. Especially football - it's my favourite sport. My uncle played football in Barcelona for nine years and played for Spain in three World Cups. Rafael Nadal Not in our make-up, to be sure - not in the pose which is preceded by the tantaras of a trumpet - do the essential traits in our character first reveal themselves. But truly in the little things the real self is exteriorised. Ameen Rihani Since I was a kid, music was what I wanted to do. I thought I could make it by my own talents. That's what I wanted to prove. Willie Nelson I was never in the bu...
