I empathise with the fact that people want to look their best. A hat is

all about how it makes you feel - it's so much better than a nip and tuck, and a lot less painful.
Philip Treacy

The silly antics that would get me in trouble at school have put me on the best-seller list. So I guess the moral here is ignore your teach... never mind. That's not the moral. Probably.
MaryJanice Davidson

It would be very ungrateful of me to turn my back or stop doing work in Latin America.
Jaime Camil

To be a young Irishman in London and go to the theater to see 'Rosemary's Baby'... it scared the crap out of me.
Pierce Brosnan

The notion that Western religions are more rigid than those of Asia is overdrawn. Ours is the most permissive society history has ever known - almost the only thing that is forbidden now is to forbid - and Asian teachers and their progeny play up to this propensity by soft-pedaling Hinduism's, Buddhism's, Sufism's rules.
Huston Smith

People wouldn't hire me for comedies. They would say, 'Oh, he doesn't do comedy,' and now it's really all I do.
Kevin Dillon

I don't want to be too critical of what other people do, but when people go back to do the same thing that they did, I'm completely confused. I'm like, 'Didn't you make that movie already?' I've been very fortunate, and I'm well taken care of, so the least I can do is try to go forward.
Jerry Seinfeld

Actresses generally aren't allowed to have haircuts, because short hair isn't considered as versatile.
Rosamund Pike

What I responded to, on the page, was the way a poem could liberate, by means of a word's setting, through subtleties of timing, of pacing, that word's full and surprising range of meaning. It seemed to me that simple language best suited this enterprise.
Louise Gluck

I was an only child for 15 years and then this lovely present, Fred, came along. It was great - it meant I had my teenage years with a little one around.
Emilia Fox

You've got to be like a fan at your show, just wild out. I make eye contact. I get in the crowd and kick it with 'em, stage dive, mosh. I make 'em laugh. I go out there and turn up, have fun. There's no set list; I don't have rehearsals.
Schoolboy Q

Gemeoss

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...

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

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

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 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...

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...

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...
