On my body, I use Kai body butter. It smells really nice and it's fresh

and creamy. When it's really cold out, I go with some good ol' Nivea cream.
Keshia Knight Pulliam

I think, as directors, they may recognize, more than the rest of the body of filmmakers, exactly what you do as a director, because I think sometimes the conception is if the camera isn't swinging around, and it's not pyrotechnic or worthily melodramatic, then the direction is uninvolved.
Lenny Abrahamson

As I approached my 18th birthday and prepared to enter military service in World War II, I was recommended to receive the Melchizedek Priesthood.
Thomas S. Monson

In the Seventies, we still had dreams and hopes of Utopia, but by the end of the decade, the world had shifted to the right.
Tariq Ali

There's only a couple times when fame is ever helpful. Sometimes you can get into a restaurant where the kitchen is just closing. Sometimes you can avoid a traffic violation. But the only time it really matters is in the emergency room with your kids. That's when you want to be noticed, because it's very easy to get forgotten in an ER.
Bill Murray

I enjoy doing these silly little videos, and a lot of stuff online is stuff I actually created for my live comedy shows.
Tom Lenk

I like the busy-ness of office life. What I discovered, to my surprise, is that I love the solitary nature of writing. What happens is that you write when you're ready.
Joseph Kanon

In 1900, as the immigrants come down the gangplank into Jersey City, they expect the streets to be paved with gold, and they were only paved with gold in Frank Baum's 'The Wizard of Oz,' of course.
David Levering Lewis

It used to be that if you got on 'The Tonight Show,' your career was made. Now, if you're on 'The Tonight Show,' maybe 14 more people show up to your gig in Tulsa.
Mike Birbiglia

To be honest, I probably wouldn't have gone to Hollywood if I hadn't been offered 'Ugly Betty' because I was a wee bit feart. But you have to make yourself frightened. That's what keeps you alive.
Ashley Jensen

Private property and the market system are good not only to promote innovation and to promote growth; private property and the market system are good for our personal freedom.
Thomas Piketty

Sisters are always drying their hair. Locked into rooms, alone, they pose at the mirror,

shoulders bare, trying this way and that their hair, or fly importunate down the stair to answer the telephone. Phyllis McGinley When our Lord says, we must be converted and become as little children, I suppose he means also, that we must be sensible of our weakness, comparatively speaking, as a little child. George Whitefield There's no dancing girls. We're kinda like secondary to the thing. It's a story about these two guys that are in love with this one girl and how it unfolds and what happens. Eric Carr There are men who would quickly love each other if once they were speak to each other; for when they spoke they would discover that their souls had only separated by phantoms and delusions. Ernest Hello If you believe you can, you probably can. If you believe you won't, you most assuredly won't. Belief is the ignition switch that gets you off the launching pad. Denis Waitley Sanity calms, but madness is more interesting. John Russell If there is...

I remember, for the first time, sitting down and consuming books in a matter of

hours. This was such a new experience for me because reading, up until that point, had been such a struggle and source of stress. I think I just needed to find the right kind of stories with which I could identify. John Corey Whaley Having children showed me a whole different kind of love that I had never known. It was something that had always been missing. Complete love. I would die for them. Scott Weiland If I hadn't won at the Worlds and claimed so many ranking points, I would have been struggling for Rio. I'm in a good place now, though, and having the chance to fight for gold in Rio after everything I've been through would be a dream. Bianca Walkden To me, it is like a diabetic with insulin. If that diabetic stops taking insulin, they will die, and I believe that if I don't follow the 12-step programme, I will regress, and that could eventually be the death of me. Trinny Woodall There are maybe 100 actors I look up to, but my first two favourite actors...

Persuasiveness is really just about getting your ideas across without being forceful.

It's a skill that can be learned and is useful for anyone who works in a team environment. Amanda de Cadenet I was an extra in a Tia Carrere music video. Adam Scott When people start to think they're figuring out 'The Vampire Diaries,' it switches on you. Kat Graham It's a huge blessing to know you've done something that has affected people the way 'The Matrix' has. It's like, there's 'Star Wars,' and then there's 'The Matrix.' It's cool to be a part of that. Laurence Fishburne Voters aren't asking to be pandered to and aren't asking to be tricked. Jason Kander I'm a pretty controlled and disciplined person, but my real vice is buying plants and food shopping. Zac Posen Barack Obama was a president who understood not only how technology could transform the way government services worked but also technology itself. He got it. Steven Levy Positivity, confidence, and persistence are key in life, so never give up...

By the time I land in Iowa, I feel like my mind is more open

to the reality of being back home and focusing on the problems of the people in my district. Bruce Braley How many artists subscribe to the notion that creative success depends on input from the fickle muse or her modern avatar, mental illness? Probably very few. Kathryn Harrison Before I was on 'Idol,' I just sat at home and played video games all day long. Now I get to travel and work towards my dream. It's the best feeling ever. Jessica Sanchez Harvard was also a little bit of a villain in my first book, 'The Dante Club.' I guess there might be a way to make Harvard more of a sympathetic presence, but it's such a powerful institution that it more naturally lends itself toward not necessarily a negative but an obstructionist element in a story. Matthew Pearl I've always been interested in invisible worlds, and I like to visit digital worlds, you know, any world that's imposed on us. Leos Carax I try to take normal things - whether it...

I basically have needed to go to the piano and give voice periodically to, you

know - I'm always afraid to describe it as a kind of therapeutic process, but nevertheless it was a type of unloading that had to occur due to my personal life with my mother's health or just my professional trials and tribulations. Rufus Wainwright Retailing has gone from an information-scarce to an information-rich environment. Erik Brynjolfsson It is the goal of the American university to be the brains of the republic. Johan Huizinga Let me just say, I've seen a pub or two. Don Johnson Despite our differences, I know that both Republicans and Democrats love America. Marco Rubio The purest expression of the doctrine of Liberalism was probably that of Benjamin Constant. Francis Parker Yockey People care about my fame, not me. But that's fine. I have my own life. Josh Hartnett If we wish our state's growth to continue, then our future will increasingly be with industries that require a highly skilled and technically proficient workforce. Jay We...

I'm looking at some comedic horror films because I have often been accused of being

too dark. I'm not dark, not compared with 'Saw' or anything like that. So I'm looking at live-action horror films, but not slasher ones - ones that have humor and maybe some social satire. Henry Selick You know it's funny that none of the regular late-night shows now use guest hosts the way Johnny did. No one talks about it much, but it's curious that they don't do it. They would each have to be asked the reason why they don't. Garry Shandling To put it simply - you know, a lot of people believe that the benefit of this job is fame and fortune. I believe that you pay for the fortune through the fame. I don't buy into the notion that being famous is somehow a good thing, or an exciting thing, or a wonderful thing. Evangeline Lilly I have run two Olympic 'A' standard times over the past 12 months and with the time I ran at the African Championships last week I know my speed and fitness are constantly improving so that I will peak in ti...

It is time that we provide clarity for our seniors, informing them of the services

available that will lower the costs of their prescription drugs and strengthen the overall integrity of the Medicare entitlement. Olympia Snowe The view of the local scene through the eyes of a native participant in that scene is a different window. Kenneth L. Pike Money costs too much. Ross MacDonald Beauty is only skin deep, but it's a valuable asset if you're poor or haven't any sense. Vernon Howard She put her hands around the neck of our production manager, and you know, started to choke him. David Gest How vain, without the merit, is the name. Homer I fell off stage and bruised some ribs. The worst part was that the audience didn't realize I was gone. Richard Marx

I feel proud when a player from Jammu and Kashmir plays for India. This

shows cricket has reached all corners of the country. Sharad Pawar By the time people came to realize that free, Web-based email was indeed a hot idea, Hotmail was adding 1 million new subscribers a month. Steve Jurvetson Probably one of the most surreal moments of my career was acting in front of Notre Dame with a mime. Eric McCormack When my fans and actors like Rajinikanth and Amitabh garu wished that I do films once again, I thought I should do. I had some skepticism in me, initially. But looking at the encouragement, I grew in confidence. Chiranjeevi I don't mind if my performances get dissected and people criticise what I've done on the pitch. They can talk about my game 24/7 for all I care. And a lot of those opinions and criticisms may actually be right. So I don't mind that. Robin Van Persie What I'm very concerned about is how do we bolster our self-awareness as humans, as biological organisms? Mae Jemison I don't want to be someone else...

There is a great suspicion of saying that anyone, especially a child, is 'the product

of destiny,' or 'formed by fate,' or 'predestined for a certain life.' I am suspicious, too, of efforts to cage children or adults in preconceived ideas of who they are or should be. Michael Gurian I'm drawn to almost any piece of writing with the words 'divine love' and 'impeachment' in the first sentence. But I know the word 'divine' makes many progressive people run screaming for their cute little lives, and so one hesitates to use it. Anne Lamott Music is great; it all depends on what mood you're in, what you want to listen to. If it's party time, you listen to, you know, party music, if you want to dance with somebody. But then again, if it's a slow dance, you need something slow. Tom Jones Cars have a large engine in the front and you have a gearbox, which is cumbersome. Electric cars don't have this problem. The motor is much smaller, the battery is below you. This will allow you to play with different shap...

Debates go on to this day about what caused the Great Depression. Economics is not

very good at explaining swings in economic activity. Eugene Fama There was a time when I could only relate to happy works. With time, my taste has evolved. Tina Ambani You can be obsessed with the bad things people say and the good things; either way, you're obsessed with yourself, and I'm not - you can become unhinged so easily. Taylor Swift I guess that in a lot of ways, my writing is more of a character to me than something that I feel personally attached to. Angel Olsen When I came to America, there was a lot of decadence in New York in the early '70s because the city was bankrupt and you could do whatever you want! Maripol Susan Boyle having a meltdown is not controversial. It's human for a 48-year-old recluse to get a little wigged out when she finds herself on the world stage overnight. Shawn Amos I love doing emotional scenes. As I've had a perfect life, I don't really have much to pull from. But it's really fun and not that challen...
