Occasionally, I have time to go to the theater, and I think for a minute,

'Man, I'd really love to be doing a play right now.' Because I loved doing plays when I was doing them. Then I think, 'I want to do it right now, but will I want to do that Sunday matinee in six weeks?'
Stephen Lang

The more cats you have, the longer you live. If you have a hundred cats, you'll live 10 times longer than if you have 10. Someday this will be discovered, and people will have a thousand cats and live forever. It's truly ridiculous.
Charles Bukowski

I like to get one pair of shoes and wear them till they're dirty. Besides, I don't walk - I glide, like butter. Float like a vampire. I'm like Louis Vuitton, but smoother. He wishes he were like me.
Kid Cudi

Tech innovation is something societies have to pursue as vigorously as they can. We have to innovate civically and socially at the same rate; otherwise, you create unfortunate disruptions, and that's where you have people opposing technological innovations.
Nick Hanauer

Maitake can achieve humongous sizes, sometimes up to 50 pounds per specimen! Massive maitake can form annually from dying dendritic tree roots for many years, even decades.
Paul Stamets

I was always impressed by some of the progressive styles of guys like Neil Peart.
Tommy Lee

I believe that I improve with every book I write - most writers will probably tell you the same thing. I'm still learning my craft and will be until the day I drop dead at my computer. In my opinion, art isn't something that can be perfected. There's always room for improvement.
David B. Coe

As far as the 'Mad Men' thing, I love 'Mad Men.' It's one of my favorite shows; I think it's an amazing series.
Michael Mosley

Overcrowded cities are spawning increasingly lawless suburbs. Waste is accumulating in and around them, straining the capacity to deal with it.
Christian de Duve

I ideally would like to do three films every year. Every day, I pray for it. But I should like a script before I sign on a film.
Shahid Kapoor

I don't get my inspiration from a specific source. It's more like if you listen to a good tune, it gives me inspiration to write a better tune.

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...

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 ...

I remember at 16 years old, growing up in Queens, we were punks, but hey,

when we went to the theater, we wore a shirt and tie! Similarly, I believe that to keep movie theaters in existence, they're gonna have to make 'em an event, have a couch, a table and drinks or something. Otherwise, there's no reason to get out of your bed! James Caan The only reason I went to college was to play basketball. I injured my knee and couldn't play. Jeffrey Dean Morgan Going out and playing football or baseball with the boys, when I was a tomboy, was a great way to learn about winning and losing, and most girls didn't have that experience. Hillary Clinton If I wasn't performing, I wasn't alive. That's the truth. My parents had absolutely no interest in the business, but they knew it made me happy, so they said 'Go for it, girl!' Samantha Barks When approved, the SAFE Port Act will make progress toward protecting the physical infrastructure of our seaports as well as our national economy which is so clearly dependent on the com...

I haven't done as many films as I would have liked. A lot of my

contemporaries have done more. I don't have 'I will be a movie star' emblazoned on anything, but I'd like do a bit more screen stuff and then when the time is right come back to theatre. When it is good, theatre takes a lot of beating both to watch and perform. Dan Stevens You can't stop what comes into a country, you can be influenced, but you can't stop it, you shouldn't, because it makes all the others interesting, we all get muddled up together, and produce something that belongs to everyone. Ninette de Valois Yes, peace can and must be won, to save the world from the terrible destruction of World War III. Paul Robeson Fools act on imagination without knowledge, pedants act on knowledge without imagination. Alfred North Whitehead I'm very outgoing and social. Emma Roberts Misery's fine - as long as you know you can get out of it when you want to. Arthur Adamov My comedy isn't going to solve problems; I'm not that deep. ...

I remember when I got my first (and only) iPad - excitement filled the air

as I opened the box and stared at what was essentially a big iPhone but without the phone part. I knew I really wanted it, and at the same time, I knew I didn't need it. Rhys Darby When I was 28 years old, I thought it would be great to have a movie about my life. I was egotistical and self-centered. Frank Abagnale The pitch that works best in tough economic times is, 'I can do that for less.' Greg Gianforte I think using anti-aging products really helps; the sooner the better, you know? Song Hye-kyo Being in Jamaica, I feel comfortable there. Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce I think that, anybody with a strong will to tell a story, then that is fantastic. I think it's fantastic. I think sometimes people have what I'll call an ulterior motive with a story. John Lee Hancock If you really think about the fabric of the United States, or the finance of any economy, finance is a true underpinning of what makes the economy great - if it can be done successfully, ...

After Nigeria, we are the second biggest black African nation. We are the headquarters of

the African Union. We are the only African country that has never been colonized. This is perhaps the last surviving African civilization. Meles Zenawi I don't do very well with extremes of any kind - extreme diets, extreme fitness - so moderation makes a lot of sense, and Hershey's has really great portion-friendly desserts to help people incorporate treats into their lifestyles so they don't feel like they're depriving themselves and are still living a balanced life. Kimberly Williams-Paisley I plan to work my utmost for Singaporeans, whatever be their political affiliation. The presidency is above politics. Tony Tan People like Art Blakey and Buddy Rich, you look at them playing music, and it's just like looking at a heavy metal drummer. I mean, they're playing with the same amount of ferocity. It's not to say all jazz is like that. Damien Chazelle I have fame on the level of a Marilyn Monroe or an Elvis Presley, but part of the reason I didn...

Early on in my life, I had a broken soul. I was abused by my

father, abandoned by my mother and ended up in a destructive first marriage. By the time I was 23, I was broken in my soul. I didn't know how to think right. I felt wrong about everything. But God stepped into my life, and I came out on the other side and didn't even smell like smoke. Joyce Meyer Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are ridiculous-looking - especially her. They're so strange and charismatic and weird. It's pretty hard to take your eyes off them. Chelsea Handler The fiction writer in me likes gaps in stories because I can jump into that gap and try to suggest something. Marlon James I'm allergic to chocolate. I never tried it, and I can't try it, ever. Tony Revolori I think that, by comparison with $2,000 bottles of grand cru Burgundies, first-rate barolos, which sell for under $100, are undervalued ten-fold. Joe Bastianich Not every artist is a role model. Iggy Azalea I drink a lot of juice and eat a lot of vegetables. Jean-Georges Vo...

Whenever you're dealing with something that's difficult to describe, that you can't get across to

someone in a sound bite, it sounds like the normal default is to pick what's easiest, and in the case of fiction written by women, fiction involving women, fiction involving any sort of relationship, the word that comes to mind is 'romance.' Diana Gabaldon If we want to be the banker to every Indian as we want to be, then we will have to use technology. Arundhati Bhattacharya I remember pretending to be the characters in the movies when I was a little kid. Alden Ehrenreich Music is everywhere - you consume it every day, everywhere you go. The content creator should be compensated. It's only fair. Jay-Z The thing about places like Trinidad and Jamaica is that they can be very musically insular. There isn't much space for kids making hip-hop, electronic music, or hybrid genres. Jillionaire I'm just trying to work out a way to be a singer and to create cool content. I'm willing to do that as an entertainer. But I'm not willing to give up my a...

Getting a great idea with song writing is a lot like love. You

don't know why this one is different, but it is. You don't know why this one is better, but it is. It sticks in your head, and you can't stop thinking about it. Taylor Swift I was not a student of Wall Street, but I was a quick study. Mitch Kapor I definitely think some of my older female peer group are deeply beautiful women. They have this thing that radiates from them. Julia Roberts I lust after iPods or Mini Coopers not because they're unique, but because they've been so artfully made that I couldn't imagine doing it better myself. Clive Thompson When I was younger, I thought I had to shut myself off, work really hard to cry. I learned after a while that that's just not... You know, often in life, you cry when you're caught off-guard. That's where I need to be when I'm acting, too. Julianne Moore I have a number of vices, one of which is moderation. E. L. Doctorow Learn to love being black. Don Lemon If not music, I think...

When you become successful on the level that Fleetwood Mac did, it gives you financial

freedom, which should allow you to follow your impulses. But oddly enough, they become much harder to follow. Lindsey Buckingham All of a sudden I discovered that I'm allergic to caviar. It was the perfect metaphor for my life. When I was only able to afford bad caviar, I could certainly eat my fill of it. Larry David My symphonies would have reached Opus 100 if I had but written them down... Sometimes I am so full of music, and so overflowing with melody, that I find it simply impossible to write down anything. Robert Schumann Historically, terrorism falls in a category different from crimes that concern a criminal court judge. Jurgen Habermas We started this band as kids, and as time has gone on, we've grown and are learning to accommodate each others' differences. Layne Staley Sometimes the greatest meals on vacations are the ones you find when Plan A falls through. Anthony Bourdain Lipitor is one of the most researched medicines. I'm glad I take Li...
