Natasha Trethewey
When I was coming up with the Hal Hartley films, I was cast as a no one. I had no name visibility. I was working at a downtown post-performance-art, avant garde theater company and doing a couple things on television. But I was a total unknown.
Martin Donovan
What I find, particularly with young writers and readers, is that they don't want complicated feelings.
Marlon James
I'm not a politician. I don't want to be a politician, because politicians do what is politically expedient. I want to do what's right.
Ben Carson

Sarah Lacy
Try to exercise gentleness, kindness and humour, and you cannot go far wrong.
Sophie Winkleman

Hassan Rouhani

Michelle Gomez

Hugh Laurie
Everybody is xenophobic to an extent.
P. J. O'Rourke
I'm a songwriter and I'd love to make that a part of my career.
