I used to have an obsession with building businesses and forgot about building health. I

was focused on the destination instead of the journey. I caution you to not do the same.
Vivek Wadhwa

I was always interested in the possibility maybe of finding my way into a big adventure.
Trenton Lee Stewart

I'm very hopeful that I'm not the only one who's willing to pick up the baton of freedom, because freedom is not free, and we must fight for it every day. Every one of us must fight for it, because we're fighting for our children and the next generation.
Ben Carson

The youth in India tend to be rebellious, as with everywhere else, and that makes Shiva exciting. He has the rebellious qualities that the youths like.
Amish Tripathi

My party trick is that I can get ready to go to the party really quickly. I'm actually a woman that can have a shower, dry and style her hair, do her make-up and get dressed in under an hour.
Natalie Dormer

My dad and I used to do movie marathons when I was a kid at the Chinese Theatre, and I just remember thinking, 'One day I want to have a movie here' And then later on, when 'Save The Last Dance' premiered there, that was definitely a full circle moment.
Bianca Lawson

Passion is different than desire. People that are successful recognize passion. You have to be willing to work at it. I love the image of pushing a boulder uphill - it will flourish you.
John Schneider

Be prepared to fall out of love with your words. I'm still too verbose at times.
Josh Elliott

I really have no preference between TV and film. I think that each individual project is its own thing and has a very different style.
Zach Gilford

The reality is that my style of drumming is largely an athletic undertaking, and it does not pain me to realize that, like all athletes, there comes a time to... take yourself out of the game.
Neil Peart

I work out with a trainer three times a week, and I try to take long walks and hikes.

When my grandfather was born, there was no healthcare. There were no airplanes.

  There were no boats. There were no trains. There were no communications. No Internet. No widespread knowledge. It will be a completely different world but a much better place in a hundred years. Jamie Dimon This is sports. In sports, you win and you lose. That's the nature of sports. You can't get away from that part of it. And if you get too hung up on the losing part, then you miss the boat. The competition part, a game like that, is why you play sports. That is as good as it gets. David Robinson Climate change is a global crisis - one the international community and private sector must tackle together if we have any hope of averting the worst impacts on our health, our economies, and our communities. Tom Steyer I'm set in my own ways. I like to do the things I want to do when I want to do them. Dennis Farina I don't imagine myself, my work, or my life, fitting into any kind of standardized path. In fact, the idea of there even being a standard freaks me out a lot. ...

I love the way this sport has evolved and impacted every segment of society.

  Now you have cross training and weight training in every sport and from middle school kids to senior citizens. Lee Haney People make a mistake thinking that two people with identical mindset gel well. Gautam Gambhir If money is tight, or you're on a limited budget, then consider DIY or used gifts. DIY could be something like baked goods for your friends, family, and neighbors. Plus, if you have children, it's a great activity to do with them during the holidays. John Rampton The custom of clasping hands is thought to date back thousands of years, as proof of not holding any weapons. Faith Salie I believe in term limits. I believe the country would be hugely better off if we had more turnover in Congress. Bill Flores When we demand Woman Suffrage, we can only do so on the ground, not that it should be a right attached to the possession of a certain amount of property, but that it should be inherent in the woman herself. Clara Zetkin I stopped acting a long time ago and my prim...

Having kids has been great for me. I have two beautiful step- kids, as well

as my own new daughter. They've really helped me to keep my feet firmly on the ground, and life is good. I feel like I'm the luckiest guy here. Matt LeBlanc I think playing somebody who's schizophrenic is such a lesson as an actor. It gets you totally out of your comfort zone, because you can't rely on your technique, your external stuff. You've really gotta look inward, in a way. Matt Dillon I grew up in the Methodist church and taught Sunday school, and one of my favorite passages of scripture is, 'in as much as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.' Matthew 25:40. Elizabeth Warren Every actor I ever meet goes, 'Ultimately I plan on having my own company and write and direct,' but yes, I too would love to write and direct a movie. I want to do a play, too. I want to do it all. Jason Schwartzman If the people in the audience are talking, you're being ignored. If the people are gazing at ...

We were asked to believe that the variety and the novelty of even the crude

films of the early days would provide a means of entertainment which would cut out the stage. Ivor Novello Clearly, programming courses should teach methods of design and construction, and the selected examples should be such that a gradual development can be nicely demonstrated. Niklaus Wirth Why do you have to translate and decode things? Just let the image be. It will have a special kind of reality that it won't once it's decoded. Laurie Anderson Science, for hundreds of years, has spanned the differences between cultures and between countries. Laurel Clark Whatever I write, no matter how gray or dark the subject matter, it's still going to be a comic novel. John Irving I've never done an action show, really. On 'Jericho,' other people got to ride horses and shoot guns, but I never did. Sprague Grayden I'm obviously not a rapper, and I don't have any claims to be one, really. Al Yankovic I love the fact that I can go out there on ...

In open range fires it is about picking a spot and hoping it is the

right location. At the head of the fire you have to worry about wind and humidity and a number of other factors. John Glover I'd rather make an interesting film that gets people talking, that maybe some people hate, than make the kind of 'entertaining' film that everyone feels ambivalent about. Emily Browning Canon is basically a very aggressive company. Our company works on competitive principles. It does not treat people equally, but it does treat them fairly. Fujio Mitarai I didn't have any success in show business until I was 30 to 31 years of age. Adam Carolla I very much faced my mother's death with hard, arduous and time-consuming labor. The more I would do, the less I would feel. Rufus Wainwright You can tell whether a man is clever by his answers. You can tell whether a man is wise by his questions. Naguib Mahfouz Let there be no mistake. A gay man alone could never begin to replicate the inner workings of the female mind. Michael Patrick...

My father was the youngest of six brothers, and he was the brains. I never

thought he was making what he should have. He had to split it with five brothers. So I made up my mind: I was going to go on my own and make my own money. Alan C. Greenberg Once you come up with a premise, you have to work out how it all happened. It's a bit like coming up with a spectacular roof design first. Before you can get it up there, you need to build a solid foundation and supporting structure. Linwood Barclay In principle, I think the idea of rewarding a good effort is interesting, but movies are generally different from each other as are performances and the conditions on how the performances are given and how they're edited and so forth. Viggo Mortensen The amount of detailed information which an individual has at his command and his theoretical elaborations of the same are mutually dependent; they grow in and through each other. Hermann Ebbinghaus Playing a stadium is a big adrenaline boost for me and I dig it. It keeps me on my toes and makes me revamp...

We all know about secrets - to have that pressure of something you can't reveal.

  That's universal: 'Am I safe? Am I gonna be OK? Will my family still love and respect me?' Jeffrey Tambor I used to get into bed with my mother every morning, almost until she died, and talk about everything. She was my closest confidante always. I had no secrets from her. Miriam Margolyes The brilliance of Jill Soloway is that while some people will give you Season Two, plus 10%, she's just kicked it. Jeffrey Tambor I have sung some great songs, and fortunately, all have gone to become hits. Mohit Chauhan Oh, I am an angel, though sometimes I wish I was more of a devil. Victoria Pendleton I studied history and English in college, got a master's in writing, but I was always sort of an autodidact in science. Anthony Doerr We need to encourage black women to know that they are authors of their own destiny, that they have important stories to tell, and that they are capable, so magically capable, of writing them and creating important pieces of work that will live fo...

To serve in the modern military - or to be the uncle, parent or sibling of one

  who does - is to treat the necessary service and sacrifice of war with a sacred honor. In my community, we pile into cars and drive hundreds of miles to watch our children's graduation from basic training. J. D. Vance Girls are having babies when they are younger and combining kids with work. I don't know if it's always been there or if I'm just more aware because I'm in this situation. Julia Restoin Roitfeld The only way to take sorrow out of death is to take love out of life. Russell M. Nelson Exercise is the fountain of youth, I believe. Richard Belzer For many older Americans who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender, a lifetime of discrimination has undermined their right to a retirement with dignity. Ted Deutch Many women in their 40s make the mistake of wearing clothes that are too tight. Skimpy dresses and tight trousers can make you look older, so get the best fit you can find. John Rocha I absolutely have loved my career path and everything ...

I think good artists know when they're on a roll, and they recognize when lightning

is striking. It's a very fortunate thing to have that inspiration and not to overanalyze it or mess with it; you just follow it if you love what you do. Johnny Marr My friendships and relationships in the conservative world are not predicated on political correctness and enforced conformity of thought. They are based, instead, on mutual respect, honesty and understanding - concepts many modern liberals should consider revisiting. Tammy Bruce I've been impressed, over the last 15 years, with how often the somewhat conspiratorial comments of Haitian villagers have been proven to be correct when the historical record is probed carefully. Paul Farmer Seeing that our thirst was increasing and the water was killing us, while the storm did not abate, we agreed to trust to God, Our Lord, and rather risk the perils of the sea than wait there for certain death from thirst. Alvar N. C. de Vaca Conflicting commercial regulations of the different States shackled and diminished b...

The high point was that the people are really nice - despite the crazy politics

- and I loved being there. The hardest part was knowing some of the things I was probably going to write about Texas would make those nice people very unhappy. Gail Collins When Shakespeare begins his exposition thus he generally at first makes people talk about the hero, but keeps the hero himself for some time out of sight, so that we await his entrance with curiosity, and sometimes with anxiety. Andrew Coyle Bradley No, I tell you what I like is having the play close after a decent run and looking back on it and saying, yes, I did that, and wasn't it wonderful? Because while you're doing it, it is really tough. It is so hard. Mary Tyler Moore My upbringing was middle-class but my parents' families were both working-class so I had this odd combination of working-class background but in a privileged position. Denise Mina I think I come from a time when all the artists I grew up with and I loved always used to try and push the boundaries, and there doesn't s...
