I definitely want to act, but hosting is something that I am really enjoying. The

first show I ever hosted was 'Jhalak Dikhla Ja.' I was super nervous then, but now I am very comfortable.
Mona Singh

Growing up in the Midwest, I was very close to my maternal grandmother, who, as a young widow running a small business in 1920s Kansas City, had known firsthand the old Pendergast regime and its classic combine of politics and organized crime.
Roger Morris

I've always wanted to be a man for a day.
Kym Whitley

Buy other authors' books when you go to their events. Even if you aren't going to read it. Even if you are going to give it away. Even if you aren't interested. Not just for the author but for the bookstore. It's karma and just plain good manners.
M. J. Rose

Nothing should be perfect. I think that's the most important thing. I do wear my jackets almost exaggeratedly short. So that's probably the most mussed up. Along with, you know, not ironing my shirt.
Thom Browne

There's no way to recover after tarnishing an undefeated record.
Ronda Rousey

I've known the panic of financial struggle. I didn't grow up with money at all, and my family has certainly known the panic of, 'Oh, gosh, where's the next bit of money coming from?'
Cate Blanchett

You hear stories about directors using manipulation to get actors to do certain things, but I think when you're working with professional actors, it's all about trust. They can do anything you want, it's just a matter of them understanding what you're looking for, and the reason why.
Darren Aronofsky

My dad in particular I tend to use - I call him 'The Brain.' If he's accessible, I'd rather put it through his brain. My wife, Melissa, maintains that the closer he is in proximity to me, the less I think for myself. And I think she's actually correct. So anything worth mulling over, I will mull over with my father, and that includes ratings.
Joshua Malina

I never did a convention before I did 'The Hobbit.'
Dean O'Gorman

I get very competitive, mostly in acting though. When I'm going out for a role or something, that's when I really get very territorial about things.

I never married because there was no need. I have three pets at

home which answer the same purpose as a husband. I have a dog which growls every morning, a parrot which swears all afternoon, and a cat that comes home late at night. Marie Corelli Pursue some path, however narrow and crooked, in which you can walk with love and reverence. Henry David Thoreau Love is suffering. One side always loves more. Catherine Deneuve I never had a Christmass at home for about 10 years. Jim Sullivan Oh yeah, I know Johnnie Bassett. We were part of that whole thing. Eddie Floyd I think they, Peter McCullough was, turns out was not a good CEO. Arthur Rock He who considers too much will perform little. Friedrich Schiller

I'm a responsible soul. But anyone who has the chance to spend time with me

can see I'm still 22 years old. I love talking about clothes and guys and shoes and makeup. Plus, I'm obsessed with anything Hello Kitty! Jordin Sparks When you're a kid growing up, and you think you're gay, you know that you're different; you're often teased and it can really destroy your self-esteem. But sports can be great for building self-esteem. Greg Louganis As history has repeatedly proven, one trade tariff begets another, then another - until you've got a full-blown trade war. No one ever wins, and consumers always get screwed. Mark McKinnon There are no whole truths: all truths are half-truths. It is trying to treat them as whole truths that plays to the devil. Alfred North Whitehead I still can't believe I won the Olympics. That's what I feel right now - completely alive as a human being. It's a really beautiful moment. Clara Hughes Sometimes I test myself saying, 'If I get a death sentence if I don't make this m

We want to be the go-to business for super-special daywear and eveningwear, to focus on

  what we are known for and what our customers want from us. Giles Deacon For me, it's fine to be aggressive and play hard. As long as you're not getting personal, it's fine, and you can do whatever you can to upset the opposition. Gautam Gambhir President Trump ran on protecting U.S. jobs and renegotiating unfair trade policies - those policies strengthen labor laws around the world. Jan Schakowsky The war in Afghanistan is underreported. Anderson Cooper I watched a lot of old movies. Clint Eastwood movies, a lot of John Wayne films, a lot of movies that celebrated the region of where I lived. Taylor Sheridan The lack of portability and competition has long been a problem in America's insurance market, yet Obamacare took no significant steps to open up the market between state lines. Bill Flores It's hard losing a parent, especially dad because he was always behind me. It was his dream and my dream for me to become a footballer. Riyad Mahrez I think the average cou

We travel together, passengers on a little spaceship, dependent on its vulnerable reserves of air

and soil, all committed, for our safety, to its security and peace. Preserved from annihilation only by the care, the work and the love we give our fragile craft. Adlai E. Stevenson It's time to save the U.N. from its own scandals and mismanagement. It's time for U.N. Reform with teeth. Mike Pence I am a winner each and every time I go into the ring. George Foreman A battle is developing between them' I say developing, because it's not yet on. Murray Walker Always rise from the table with an appetite, and you will never sit down without one. Horace Greeley Can we all get along? Rodney King Men and nations behave wisely once they have exhausted all the other alternatives. Abba Eban

Integrating breakthrough technology into everyday products is always a challenge; at the same time, this

is exactly how design makes tech products easily adoptable in life. Yves Behar I enjoy music that is commercial. I think that in order for music to be heard in a lot of different situations, you have to always consider that. Commercial music, for the most part, is popular music, and you always have to keep that in mind. It's not so much financial as making sure it gets the shot and is heard on the radio. Babyface There used to be a tradition within the Hispanic community that, regardless of your political party, you would support undocumented immigrants. That ended with Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz. Jorge Ramos The armed citizen made America free, and the armed citizen will keep America free! David A. Clarke, Jr. History never repeats itself in the same way. Ehud Barak I like Jay Z, Journey, and Kings of Leon. Alex Rodriguez I grew up in a small town where we played around on motorcycles and things, but it really started when I got old enough. I think I was obsessed w

My interest in Virtual Reality (VR) films began for me when I began a fellowship

with MIT's Open Documentary Lab. It was a profound experience to be on MIT's campus one day a week and to enter a new world of storytelling where breaking convention and traditional methods were expected. This was deeply challenging and inspiring. Raney Aronson-Rath Richard Madden, I loved to work alongside him; he's a very funny man. Alfie Allen I really respect Zakk Wylde's guitar playing and his compulsive work ethic. Dimebag Darrell Our movement is evolving. The movement to liberate our sexuality as a human right, that's an ongoing struggle. Gilbert Baker In animation, you can often defer decisions or make changes later. John Knoll I've always been drawn to dark stories. I enjoy reading Flannery O'Connor, Patricia Highsmith, and Margaret Mitchell. Karin Slaughter Each year on Impact Day, I love seeing our people fill classrooms, parks, and training centers to make a difference in communities across the country. Cathy Engelbert Elon M

The past is still visible. The buildings haven't changed, the layout of the streets hasn't

changed. So memory is very available to me as I walk around. Jonathan Lethem I cannot consent that my mortal body shall be laid in a repository prepared for an Emperor or a King my republican feelings and principles forbid it the simplicity of our system of government forbids it. Andrew Jackson Anyone who loses a parent, you have to find those parts of yourself that your parent held true in themselves, especially if they're supportive parents. Anthony Rapp When you borrow money, you should always think how you're going to pay it back. Dmitry Medvedev I'm the world's expert on sterotypes held by academics about athletes and held by athletes about academics. To me, both of them are caricatures. A. Bartlett Giamatti A society in which there are high levels of voluntary activity will simply be a better, happier place than one where there are not. Jonathan Sacks In my life and career I want to embrace ageing because I think that's what's interesting

We can best honor the memories of those who were killed on September 11 and

those who have been killed fighting the war on terrorism, by dedicating ourselves to building a free and peaceful world safe from the threat of terrorism. Jack Reed Faith is the great cop-out, the great excuse to evade the need to think and evaluate evidence. Faith is belief in spite of, even perhaps because of, the lack of evidence. Richard Dawkins Look around, and you see everywhere the exertions and acts of individuals restricted, regulated, or promoted, on the principle of the common welfare. Friedrich List One measure of friendship consists not in the number of things friends can discuss, but in the number of things they need no longer mention. Clifton Fadiman Man is always more than he can know of himself; consequently, his accomplishments, time and again, will come as a surprise to him. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow After great pain, a formal feeling comes. The Nerves sit ceremonious, like tombs. Emily Dickinson My imagination makes me human and makes me a fool; i

To cause the face to appear in a mass of flame make use of the

following: mix together thoroughly petroleum, lard, mutton tallow and quick lime. Distill this over a charcoal fire, and the liquid which results can be burned on the face without harm. Harry Houdini Universities want to recruit the students that they believe will best represent the university while in school and beyond. Students with a robust social media presence and clearly defined personal brand stand to become only more influential. Amy Jo Martin I equally love both, classic rock and hip-hop. I love all music, really, and I really use classic rock a lot. I'm heavily influenced by that melodically in my music. I can't really separate the two. Yelawolf I don't use a debit card. The safest thing is a credit card because you're using the bank's money. If someone accesses your information, they are stealing the bank's money, not yours. Frank Abagnale History is laden with belligerent leaders using humanitarian rhetoric to mask geopolitical aims. Hist

HAG Records, is a company that I've owned. I've had a couple of gospel releases

on it. We developed a pretty good distribution setup there and we do have something to use in case they don't want to sign us. Merle Haggard I'm a product of good nutrition, cutting edge supplementation and hard training, and I'm an old guy. Warren Cuccurullo Awards are always a pleasant surprise. They are the candy-floss parts of our job - a lovely added extra to attract people's attention. The bottom line is that you want to sell tickets. Sophie Thompson People have to really suffer before they can risk doing what they love. Chuck Palahniuk I am a feminist and I have no problems being called that. Frances O'Grady Like fragile ice anger passes away in time. Ovid If you're doing a music film, you've got to be singing about something.
