I like Pirate's Booty. Prunes and olives, too. I love hummus. I can eat that

until I die. I tend to eat mostly organic food.
Queen Latifah

I'm so independent in writing stuff and controlling what I do. Sometimes I get calls from people asking to be in their movie, but I'm always writing or editing, and I can never get around to doing it. I'm so much more interested in my own stuff. I think I drive my agent crazy.
Chris Lilley

'Use Me' is a wonderfully satisfying book.
Cathleen Schine

You've got to know what you want. This is central to acting on your intentions. When you know what you want, you realize that all there is left then is time management. You'll manage your time to achieve your goals because you clearly know what you're trying to achieve in your life.
Patch Adams

David Wenham

The right solemnly proclaimed at the birth of the States, and which has been affirmed and reaffirmed in the bills of rights of the States subsequently admitted into the Union of 1789, undeniably recognizes in the people the power to resume the authority delegated for the purposes of Government.
Jefferson Davis

All good art, to me, is uncertainty.
Dave Davies

What used to be called 'good manners' is now regarded as mere affectation. Open a door for a young woman, and she's likely to call security.

I always wanted to write a raccoon story. I don't know why. It's not like

I want to own a raccoon or anything like that. I'm just fascinated by them. Kathi Appelt I made a very poor decision in my first marriage. I know God's forgiven me.

Bobby Kotick A lot of people think I'm gay. I have really red

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.

Kelly Wearstler Golden rule of life: never underestimate your rivals. Sid Waddell I don't want my learning curve to be stunted by just all of a sudden doing work all the time and not being careful about the work that I'm doing. Paul Dano I could live my whole life being so comfortable doing things I've already worked hard to not be nervous at, or I could continue to push the envelope and make myself uncomfortable and learn and see what I'm capable of, and acting is definitely that. Ruby Rose Democrats hate success. P. J. O'Rourke I crank up the music, and I dance around the house. 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. Morris Gleitzman Bowie is probably my favorite all-around songwriter and performer and personality. His ability to change over the years is such an inspiration. I love 'Young Americans' and 'Fame.' 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.

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. Shaun White My favorite time to dance is at, like, wedding receptions, when it's all ages and everyone seems to be having fun. Neil Patrick Harris Every writer dreams of writing a book that will touch people. Bruce Feiler My father taught me respect for quality as well as a sense of dignity - great values as we face a world going in a different direction. I try to teach my children to stay close to the real things. Diego Della Valle I'll have the chance to do a production number on A Capitol Fourth. Barry Bostwick That's what I miss out of all this synthesized music - it starts to lose dynamics. Glenn Frey Even when one is doing well, one still worries that things might go badly again in the future. Th

Languages and cultures are disappearing at an enormously fast rate, and many of them are

in Canada. These are extreme examples of removal of freedom of expression - to actually lose a language and the ability to express that culture.

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.

Americans deserve a simple, fairer, and flatter tax code that jumpstarts our economy, helps create

jobs, and makes America a leader again.Kevin Brady Ramen in L.A. is much better than ramen in San Francisco. That's just a fact.Alexis Ohanian Ideally, I would like to play roles in as many classics as possible: 'Rebecca,' 'Hedda Gabler.' I'm fond of a corset.Talulah Riley I always think of the Joker as the ultimate bully. Nothing he says is funny except to him.Paul Dini Fashion is instant - after six months, it disappears, and you have to start again. 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. My father ran a steel plant, and I was expected to study metallurgy and end up at the steel plant when I finished high school at age 15. 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. Harold Prince The only thing of value I have in this life is my ability to tell a story, whether in print, orating, writing it down or having people acting it out.

swag, I'm putting it on. Desiigner You need to think outside the box.

Tom Brady Putin has put Russia on a path to be a world power with global influence. Jack Keane You raise taxes during an economic crisis time, as we did in - back in the time of Herbert Hoover, you send the country into a depression. John McCain I'm always the underdog, but I don't mind that. Stipe Miocic The minute that a celebrity wears your clothing, that gives you international exposure and the best advertising you can get. Emilia Wickstead On the Republican Party platform and the major issues of the Republican Party, Charlie Dent is significantly removed from those foundational principles in his voting record. Trent Franks You get to a point in your life where you go, 'I don't remember what I did.' Frank Abagnale My id
