When I yell at my TV, it's usually watching... usually it happens during the election.

There's when I'm watching CNN and MSNBC.
Matthew Moy

The rumor is Chu Hing really wanted the 'Green Turtle' to be Chinese American, but the publisher didn't think that would sell. If you read those books, the hero almost always has his back facing the camera so you can't see his face. When he turns around, his face is obscured.
Gene Luen Yang

There's probably a little more creative freedom in cable versus network, a little less of a committee looking over everyone's shoulder, but it depends on the network; it depends on the show; it depends on who the head writer or show runner is and what track record they have.
Timothy Hutton

I started to model because I thought I could use it as an excuse to others, like, 'Yeah, I'm tall because I'm a model.'
Tao Okamoto

As a director, there is nothing more fun than seeing an audience screaming and jumping. You are the ultimate puppet master, controlling the emotions of the audience.
Fede Alvarez

I write entertainment. There are some books you read but don't inhale. There are books that will change your life.
Michael Robotham

I love being around kids; they're honest and refreshing, and I love teaching them new things.
Jesse Bradford

When I started publishing my work, one of the biggest surprises to me was the recurring question about my background and why I wasn't doing more stories about Asian-Americans.
Adrian Tomine

Towards the end of summer 2013, when school ended, I decided to re-download all of my social media channels and make videos again. The next day, I woke up and had 9,000 followers. I did the same thing the next day and woke up with 54,000 followers.
Nash Grier

Small business creates more jobs than large corporations.
Kevin McCarthy

I think you can't repeat beats. If you're doing something in one book, you can't do the exact same thing in another book.
Greg Rucka

I think my parents recognised that I'd always wanted to be a writer, and so

they didn't think that this was some idle, faddish wish on my part. Chang-Rae Lee I never studied dance, but if you look at 'Wild At Heart,' my mother saw that movie and said, 'You are a dancer. Look at how you're moving: all that strange energy is like modern dance.' Nicolas Cage Show me a mall, and I'm happy. Julia Roberts Some believe that the FBI has these phenomenal capabilities to access any information at any time - that we can get what we want, when we want it, by flipping some sort of switch. It may be true in the movies or on TV. It is simply not the case in real life. James Comey After the French Revolution, the world money power shifted from Paris to London. For three generations, the British maintained an old-fashioned colonial empire, as well as a modern empire based on London's primacy in the money markets. Gore Vidal Songwriting is such an intricate part of me as an artist and as a person; I couldn't just let someone el...

My first joke was about a company called Five Star Parking that was all over

Philadelphia: 'Who's reviewing parking lots?' Adam McKay I don't have to try to be perfect because I know that my fans like me for who I am. They like me because I am weird and kind of funky, but still really calm. Bella Thorne It's a funny feeling to work with people who you consider your colleagues and to realize that they actually are young enough to be your children. Alan Alda There was a time when cowboys respected their horses instead of riding them to death just to show off for a crowd. Tommy Lee My friends and family are amazed I've done so well. I was not a model student. No one expected that I'd build a Fortune 500 company at Symantec. John W. Thompson Before 'Moonrise,' I never thought I would be in a movie where I would be struck by lightning. Jared Gilman The theme of sisters - of missing sisters, of needing sisters, the special love that sisters share or the antagonism sisters share - is something that is very close to...

The more of what our music does violates the premise of its format that it's presented in,

the better. So, hearing our music in the supermarket, a Muzak version, is great. Walter Becker My mum always said I devoured 'The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe' at the tender age of four, but frankly, I think that might be a touch of maternal exaggeration. Matt Haig Indie movies can be a lot more stressful than studio pictures. The stakes are just as high whether you're talking $3 million or $40 million. Brian Reitzell The precariat is the first class in history to be losing acquired rights - cultural, civil, social, economic, and political. Guy Standing SXSW has been a melting pot of ideas and policy on immigration, cybersecurity, privacy, Internet of Things, international trade, and innovation. Suzan DelBene I am a proponent of investing in infrastructure... and, if we can use state resources to make ProvPort more prosperous and successful, then that will benefit the whole state. Gina Raimondo I have always been communicative. I can't help it if I have been misun...

Mental agitations and eating cares are more injurious to health, and destructive of life, than

is commonly imagined, and could their effects be collected, would make no inconsiderable figure in the bills of mortality. William Falconer It's a shame the Manchester United situation turned sour. Paul Ince We know the road to freedom has always been stalked by death. Angela Davis When you realize you're alive, you can live life! Chad Michael Murray I spent most of this afternoon writing a new introduction for my autobiography. June Foray Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it. Thomas Jefferson We are muddled into war. David Lloyd George

Al Gonzales is a dedicated public servant and exceptionally qualified to be our

nation's next Attorney General. I know that a lot has been said about Judge Gonzales' life story. It is a story of the fulfillment of the American Dream. Mel Martinez In politics, there is no use looking beyond the next fortnight. Joseph Chamberlain All some folks want is their fair share and yours. Arnold H. Glasow Everything will line up perfectly when knowing and living the truth becomes more important than looking good. Alan Cohen Nicolette, Kendalle, and Alexandra are my children. Their mother, Cynthia Beck, and I, love them very much. Gordon Getty Mr. Janet Reno? I think Mr. Janet Reno... I think he's one of the best hunting dogs in the world. Ted Nugent The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. Thomas Paine

Photographic memory is often confused with another bizarre - but real - perceptual phenomenon called

eidetic memory, which occurs in between 2 and 15 percent of children and very rarely in adults. An eidetic image is essentially a vivid afterimage that lingers in the mind's eye for up to a few minutes before fading away. Joshua Foer One of my favorite films is 'Dumb and Dumber.' I'd love to do some really silly comedy someday. Paul Dano In my family, as in most middle-class Indian families I knew when I was growing up, science and mathematics were held in awe. Aravind Adiga I give the spectator the possibility of participating. The audience completes the film by thinking about it; those who watch must not be just consumers ingesting spoon-fed images. Michael Haneke Even The Impostors, as silly as it is, is a very intimate film, in a way. Stanley Tucci There's no doubt I'm emotional. Sidney Crosby Knowledge is ancient error reflecting on its youth. Francis Picabia I can only be who I am. Enya The South African government, unlike a lot of ...

The fact is, in the minds of many, Trayvon Martin received the appropriate punishment for

a true crime: He was black, male and dared to walk outside. In life, young Trayvon was just a teenager; in death, he has been transformed into a scary, lurking, suspicious, prone-to-violence spook. Henry Rollins If I had gone to a big company, it would have been very difficult for me to do research freely. At a big company, say Sony, there are very, very good researchers. So I would have to ask them what I could do. Shuji Nakamura I think that there's the Kim Kardashian brand and the Kardashian brand. I think they blend together, but I have different qualities or interests that my sisters might not be so into. Kim Kardashian I don't like to work out, and I get bored easily. Janet Jackson My dad and all my family were into baseball. His brothers, my mom's brothers, my mom's father. Baseball was just always a part of our family. Mark Teixeira I'm a Communist, fully convinced and dedicated to my cause. Italo Calvino Creating a body of mathematics is a...

The nature of a protective immune response to HIV is still unclear. Because in a

very, very unique manner, unlike virtually any other microbe with which we're familiar, the HIV virus has evolved in a way that the immune system finds it very difficult, if not impossible, to deal with the virus. Anthony Fauci In poetry you can express almost inexpressible feelings. You can express the pain of loss, you can express love. People always turn to poetry when someone they love dies, when they fall in love. Erica Jong My father had all these great names for our cows. Bossy and Daisy and Petunia and Turnip. One of my jobs was to round up the cows before milking. I'd go out back with the dog and bring them in. Bobbie Ann Mason I quite like to sing, actually - just belting out numbers with my guitar. I find that it's a form of tranquility. Jack O'Connell I was 3 and a half, and there was an open call for a Coca-Cola commercial. We were living around Dallas, and my mom took me. I think they were calling for 16-year-olds that could ride horses and swi...

Young women are still looking for a prince on a white charger to come over the

hill or for Mr. Rochester to appear. We all pretend we're right-on feminists, but underneath that, there's still the bedrock of romance. Gemma Jones When people don't want to debate you on the smart issues of the day, it's just a lot easier to call you a dumb blonde from Fox. Gretchen Carlson As soon as I started reading, I found myself drawn to fictional character's homes as much as I was to the characters themselves. Mary Kay Andrews During the slow recovery after the Great Recession, inflation was very low, and it took us a while to get it back moving up. Charles L. Evans My work is a self-portrait of my mind, a prism of my convictions. Fernando Botero I think '12 Years a Slave' really helped me, as a person and as a student, to grow. Storm Reid I didn't really discover 'Risky Business' until later in life because I was so young when it came out. Cobie Smulders Making movies is really hard. It's a very complex process, with many, many var...

What makes me laugh about politics, sometimes, is it seems like once we get to

a point where our problems are seemingly unsolvable, it's because we're looking through a wrong point of view. If we turn the thing on its head, then maybe we might see it differently. Dave Davies When Sir Arthur Conan Doyle conceived Sherlock Holmes, why didn't he give the famous consulting detective a few more quirks: a wooden leg, say, and an Oedipus complex? Well, Holmes didn't need many physical tics or personality disorders; the very concept of a consulting detective was still fresh and original in 1887. Christopher Fowler The intensity with which Janis Joplin sings, you simply can't find a singer like that. It's almost scary the amount of emotion and energy and passion she puts into her performance. Michael Wadleigh I don't like sequels at all. If the movie's good the first time, why bother? Michael Lehmann The tenet of the separation of church and state is an unconstitutional doctrine. Sharron Angle Back in the day, the album was k...
