As we get more technically driven, the importance of people becomes more than it's ever

been before. You have to utilize who you are in your work. Nobody else can do that: nobody else can pull from your background, from your parents, your upbringing, your whole life experience.
David Carson

When we started, the business name was 'Fashion 21.' And change it to 'Forever 21' later.
Do Won Chang

I was raised a Roman Catholic and had to go to the eight o'clock Mass every morning and have communion and wear a tie, kind of like a restricted life style. Then in the '60s, we got wild and let it go and started looking in other places to see where God really was, and I came back to the Christian thing.
Roger McGuinn

You can almost hear people saying, 'We're going to make a movie about an election' and 'We're going to make a movie about a lobbyist.' You can hear the yawning start across the nation.
Kevin Spacey

Ironically, when I've asked my straight friends to join me in hanging a rainbow flag, they answer, 'But someone might think we're gay,' not realizing that is exactly the point. To be mistaken for the oppressed is to momentarily become the oppressed.
Alice Dreger

I wrote 'Criminal' in 45 minutes when everyone else went to lunch because I had to have a hit. I can force myself to do the work, but only if someone is right up behind me.
Fiona Apple

I never know what's going to move me. I'm always surprised. And it's always a mystery to the people who work with me.
Jodie Foster

There are people in every time and every land who want to stop history in its tracks. They fear the future, mistrust the present, and invoke the security of a comfortable past which, in fact, never existed.
Robert Kennedy

The Republican Party is doubling down on this trickle-down theory that says, 'Thou shalt concentrate wealth at the very top of our society. Thou shalt remove regulation from wherever you find it, even on Wall Street. And thou shalt keep wages low for American workers so that we can be more competitive.'
Martin O'Malley

Anytime we step out boldly to make changes, we take a chance that we might fail. But the only way to get better is to try.
Joyce Meyer

The way I work with my cinematographer is not based on general principles, but the ideas are triggered by the locations where we shoot.
Paolo Sorrentino

Gemeoss

Priority is placed on the chastity of women. You can be corrupt, or a murderer

and still hold your head up high on the street without problems, whereas if there are any suspicions of your chastity and moral behaviour as a woman, you get lynched. Safak Pavey You have to say now that space is something. Space can vibrate, space can fluctuate, space can be quantum mechanical, but what the devil is it? Leonard Susskind I don't think Russia could start a war by attacking any of the NATO member states. Milos Zeman Like every artist that comes out, you want to make a mark; you want to be a household name and you want to be someone that people are going to look back in ten years/fifteen years' time and go, 'I love this guy Olly Murs. He was brilliant back in the day; he was someone I really, really liked.' Olly Murs Fundamentally, the basis of all modern progress is the efficiency of labor. And the only sure road to restored prosperity is through the thrift and hard work of our people as a whole. Charles M. Schwab May we treasure the divine...

I will never tire of recommending the custom, practiced by the best architects, of preparing

not only drawings and sketches, but also models of wood or any other material. These... enable us to examine... the work as a whole... and, before continuing any further, to estimate the likely trouble and expense. Leon Battista Alberti Being on television, playing the same character for many years, for me, I think that would get a little tedious. Peter Dinklage I've been playing since I was 5, but I wouldn't say that I'm serious about the piano. Kiernan Shipka People are needed to take up the challenge, strong people, who proclaim the truth, throw it in people's faces, and do what they can with their own two hands. Abbe Pierre The excitement right now is coming from the Liberty movement. And the Republicans want a piece of it. Gary Johnson I never realized I could love people as much as I do now. George Lopez When the students were killed at Kent State, the cast voted to do a demonstration from the stage, and I abstained. Holly Near If I make two f...

It is our Party's unshakeable stand to prevent a new war from breaking out on the

Korean peninsula and accelerate economic construction in a peaceful environment, thus resolving at an early date the problems related with the people's livelihood. Kim Jong-un We need to pay our dues to live on this earth; we need to pay the rent, and I'm doing that with the work we are carrying out here in Patagonia. Douglas Tompkins I would like to thank all my captains who believed in me and backed me to the hilt. I also thank our greatest partner, the Indian cricket fan, for all the love, support, and memories. Virender Sehwag CASIS has to succeed because for it not to succeed would be a huge setback for the International Space Station program. Alan Stern I go back to things all the time. It's really nice, too, like when I'm going through some kind of a writer's block, and I'm feeling uninspired, I go to some of my oldest songs from over the years and sift through them, and one thing that's very nice is to see how I've grown up a little bit. A litt...

I think that most people in the Middle East, at least 50%, believe in being sharia-compliant. If

you're sharia-compliant or want to impose sharia law, the United States is the wrong place for you. Steve Bannon The idea we would create some kind of religious test for entry into the country is absolutely wrong. Cory Gardner I've never really been a character on TV. I think, if possible, you want to portray yourself. If you're in a situation where you're supposed to react, you need to react. Daniel Bryan I learned my English from Keith Spurgeon. He had some small children, and I was young, too, and so we spoke the language together, and it was fantastic. Johan Cruyff The pooling operation used in convolutional neural networks is a big mistake, and the fact that it works so well is a disaster. Geoffrey Hinton If you heard 40 times in a day that Newt Gingrich takes the wings off of butterflies, eventually you'd believe it. Kellyanne Conway Once you start worrying, it's hard to stop. Alexandra Petri I always try to do something different and creative with my dr...

I never thought then I'd be doing what I'm doing now. At my high school,

being on the girls soccer team was the cool thing to do, but that was definitely never going to happen for me, so I played music. Not because everyone thought it was awesome, but for the love of it. Kate Voegele Then hast our the Red Stone perfect with less labour, expense of time and costs, for the which ever thank God. George Ripley There are many plant medicines that are available to us that have a lot of stigma around them that I hope, in the future, our medical community can look at, because I would absolutely go to those alternatives first before I went back to Western medicine. Melissa Etheridge A husband is very much like a house or a horse. Anthony Trollope I'm a curvy girl and that will never change. Holly Madison Restaurants are a wonderful escape for me. And are for a lot of people. Gay Talese I have an enormous appetite to see life as I know it presented in front of my eyes. Wallace Shawn If you are in business, you are not enjoying. You are workin...

Of-course we did, but we didn't reply because we knew once this leaks the others

will scatter, so in the few days we moved quickly before the press got hold of it. The press did get hold of it a few days later, we nabbed, we were able to get 15, the others got away. Lee Kuan Yew I never quite understand why we watch the news. There doesn't really seem much point watching somebody tell you what the news is when you could quite easily listen to it on the radio. John Hurt The old idea of a composer suddenly having a terrific idea and sitting up all night to write it is nonsense. Nighttime is for sleeping. Benjamin Britten Bigotry murders religion to frighten fools with her ghost. Charles Caleb Colton I love to go to Washington - if only to be near my money. Bob Hope Every silver lining has a cloud. Mary Kay Ash But in reality we are accompanied by the whole dancing universe. Ruth St. Denis

The great myth that many social scientists want to encourage is that there is an

incompatibility between modern technology and traditional religion. This is absolute nonsense. If anything, it's the reverse. Rodney Stark And I was in another band called Flash In The Pan, which was soca, Latin music, down in Laguna Beach. Travis Barker I'm very thankful to players like John Stockton and Spud Webb. They've made it possible for someone like me to make it. I think teams are actually looking for one player under 6-feet now, because they make things happen. Scott Brooks I don't like the 'must', the 'always', and the 'never' words. I don't like 'no' either. Viggo Mortensen When actors first come up, you're auditioning for everything - you're trying to sniff it out like a pig with a truffle and you would do anything! Bryan Cranston I must represent France, and I want to be elegant, and I want the French people to be proud of me, you know. Carla Bruni Yoga helps me be a stronger runner. I can lose ...

I would have to say the most challenging thing about directing is the sheer stamina

because... as a director, you're always doing something. Someone always needs to talk to you. There are always decisions to be made and every day for as long as the movie goes on. So it's a marathon... You don't have to look nice, but it's all day every day. Michael Urie It's been a joy to be a part of other people's journey, to be able to inspire and be a part of new singers coming up in this business. Christina Aguilera It wasn't that I got pinned against my locker, but I was intensely aware that the things I valued weren't shared by anyone. Girls didn't like me, and I had few friends. Josh Groban We must also win really sufficient and, above all, practical, guarantees for the freedom of the seas and for the further fulfilment of our economic and political tasks throughout the world. Bernhard von Bulow For thugs from the ghetto, violence is a way of life - it's what helps you survive. Suge Knight Now we are using the body scanner to s...

I founded Atari in my garage in Santa Clara while at Stanford. When I was

in school, I took a lot of business classes. I was really fascinated by economics. You end up having to be a marketeer, finance maven and a little bit of a technologist in order to get a business going. Nolan Bushnell A writer's ambition should be to trade a hundred contemporary readers for ten readers in ten years' time and for one reader in a hundred years' time. Arthur Koestler But so far as countries are concerned, I don't go to a place to see what's there, but who is there. David McCallum Politics at bottom is not all that complicated. It's all about timing. Mark McKinnon When I wrestled in College, my team was very good. William Baldwin Dating and getting attention from boys was something that came later to me. Rachelle Lefevre I'd rather be able to face myself in the bathroom mirror than be rich and famous. Ani DiFranco If I had parallel lives to pursue, I would also want one as a painter. Norman Spinrad As a kid, I certainly n...

Florida is a place of unparalleled diversity of backgrounds, experiences and vision. It makes our

culture unique, but it can also make it difficult to define a common identity and create a sense of community that reaches beyond our neighborhoods to all corners of our state. Jeb Bush When I hear traditional family values raised, I hear that effort once again to re-establish the man as head and master of his family. Who had the, not only the right, but the obligation to discipline his wife and children to keep them in line? Patricia Ireland No family gets rich from earning the minimum wage. In fact, the current minimum wage does not even lift a family out of poverty. Jon Corzine I've always been endorsed by the National Rifle Association. Howard Dean Every night, I have to read a book, so that my mind will stop thinking about things that I stress about. Britney Spears My greatest desire is that the hope that has overcome fear in my country will help vanquish it around the world. Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva I figured that, if you do a vampire movie in Hollywood, yo...
