We were spoiled in many ways, but we were always taught to understand the value

of the dollar. If there was something we wanted, we had to earn it. Even in college, we were very fiscally responsible. I had 300 bucks a month; anything I wanted beyond that, I had to work for.
Donald Trump, Jr.

He was like, 'I want to get in the studio with you.' Who turns down Pharrell?
Missy Elliott

Wisin is my brother. He always will be my brother. We are very happy as solo artists. We had a great musical trajectory together, which will be there forever. And for the future, we won't discard reuniting and making something new.
Yandel

A radio telescope pointing at the sky receives radiation not only from space, but also from other sources including the ground, the earth's atmosphere, and the components of the radio telescope itself.
Robert Woodrow Wilson

On a really good day, if I'm really trying, in the morning I'll have a piece of toast, vitamins and nuts, or a bagel with a little cream cheese. Then at lunch time, I'll get me one of those Chinese chicken salads, a glass of juice, and a big glass of water.
Jo Marie Payton

I probably learned, being in 'Taxi Driver' before I made my first film, I would come to the set every day just to watch how that film came about. It's like a graduate course: it's terrific. You talk to the cinematographer during the breaks. You ask the electrician why they are doing this.
Albert Brooks

I usually keep my personal style simple and streamlined. I like classic colors like black, white, and beige. White and black is my favorite color combination, and I like to finish up my look with an accent of gold jewelry.
Aerin Lauder

An unlimited America was the vision for the nation set forth by our Founding Fathers. It is the vision enshrined in those two great charters of freedom: our Declaration of Independence and our Constitution. Many of America's most intractable problems stem from the fact that we have strayed from that vision - and lost direction.
Sam Brownback

If you have an embarrassing story, and it's a source of shame, keeping it in just compounds the shame and turns the story into something poisonous. And if someone knows about it, then it can be used against you.
Aisha Tyler

I don't do anything unless I can give it 100%.

As I have discovered by examining my past, I started out as a child.

Coincidentally, so did my brother. My mother did not put all her eggs in one basket, so to speak: she gave me a younger brother named Russell, who taught me what was meant by 'survival of the fittest.' Bill Cosby There was a war crimes trial because an American prisoner had been shot trying to escape. He had obviously been recaptured and shot, and that violated the Geneva Convention. Charles Guggenheim He who reigns within himself and rules passions, desires, and fears is more than a king. John Milton Everyone confesses that exertion which brings out all the powers of body and mind is the best thing for us; but most people do all they can to get rid of it, and as a general rule nobody does much more than circumstances drive them to do. Harriet Beecher Stowe If that's the way the game is played, I don't want to play anymore. Joyce DeWitt

I was very lucky. Things happened, both bad and good, but I never got into

real, deep trouble. But it wore me down. By the time I was 18, I was done. I didn't want to live the life any more. I needed to develop past the point that busking takes you to. Madeleine Peyroux We wanted to be certain they didn't have a bigger deficit, and Kennedy agreed with me. Wilbur Mills If I'm in a slump, I ask myself for advice. Ichiro Suzuki A kingdom founded on injustice never lasts. Lucius Annaeus Seneca We gained his operational capabilities and he gained our marketing skills. Mercer Reynolds Innocence is like a dumb leper who has lost his bell, wandering the world, meaning no harm. Graham Greene Life is largely a matter of expectation. Horace

The purposes of the United States should not be doubted. The Security Council resolutions will

be enforced - the just demands of peace and security will be met - or action will be unavoidable. And a regime that has lost its legitimacy will also lose its power. Colin Powell I am emphatically against the privatization of Social Security. It is going to hurt millions of American women, American families and ultimately the whole country. Barbara Mikulski Science is the knowledge of consequences, and dependence of one fact upon another. Thomas Hobbes People who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it. Unknown We talked about Tootsie, the idea in Tootsie is that a man becomes a better man for having been a woman. Sydney Pollack

I love building spaces: architecture, furniture, all of it, probably

more than fashion. The development procedure is more tactile. It's about space and form and it's something you can share with other people. Donna Karan What we have in us of the image of God is the love of truth and justice. Demosthenes There was no television, so the radio provided you with everything. Ruben Blades All the beasts in Howling Forest were safe in their caves, nests, and burrows. Michael Ende If I wasn't Bob Dylan, I'd probably think that Bob Dylan has a lot of answers myself. Bob Dylan

People get into debt head over heels because banks make it so easy to do

so. Then the banks come along and act like these people who can't or won't pay their bills are the dregs of society. Jonathan Raymond 'Macbeth' is one of the best operas ever, and doing it was a great experience. I added some things to the opera based from my experience on the movie - such as some of the special effects and bits of film - to make it new and interesting. It was a very good work and a very good experience. Dario Argento In any relationship, after the first year is over, you can't help but want your own space. Helena Bonham Carter I must confess that although I am quite passionate about the books I create for children, I am not the best oral storyteller. In fact, I stink at it. Tony DiTerlizzi I fantasize and idealize myself as Bugs Bunny, but I know deep down I'm Daffy Duck. Patton Oswalt My father was always playing the piano. He played all kinds of music - Gershwin, all kinds of stuff. Kate Bush Being from Texas, acting or musi...

In the 1950s in the United States, few music lovers were listening to chamber music.

Daddy played Bach and Haydn on our phonograph for me. Not only did I become familiar with the form; he discussed the concerti. My own head start. My own Head Start. Karen DeCrow Many people in Europe and the U.S. dispute the thesis that we are living through a clash of civilisations between Islam and the west. But a radical minority of Muslims firmly believes that Islam is under siege, and is committed to winning the holy war it has declared against the West. Ayaan Hirsi Ali The major religions, Christianity, Judaism, Islam, they deny somehow that God has a feminine face. However, if you go to the holy texts, you see there is this feminine presence. Paulo Coelho Recording is just a lengthy process, so to have to record before every professional video, that's where a real time drain comes in. Riki Lindhome I really do believe the camera steals the soul. But that may be because I'm worried about my soul. I don't have much of a soul to begin with; I can't affor...

To a poet, it's quite ruinous to have a poem distorted, out of shape, or

squeezed, shall we say, into this tiny screen. But I'm not sure big digital companies are sensitive to the needs of poets. Billy Collins Theater owners are exerting a lot of power over the studios to withhold access to content that people want to see. That's bad for consumers, that's bad for studios, and ultimately, I think it will be bad for theaters. Ted Sarandos I think it's important to view the issues on the broadest possible reference plane. In fact, if you firmly believe in any issue, I urge you to read the opposite of it. Most of the time, it'll merely reinforce your original beliefs, but on the rare occasion, it might change your mind. Michael Ramirez I never, ever, restrict food, and I will never go on a diet ever again. Portia de Rossi I love acting and I have a need to do it, even when the business is down. Nadine Velazquez All art is a confession. Gaston Lachaise It's weird because before a race, I always want something sweet, like...

I feel lucky that I get to read and publish stories that are not necessarily

overtly horror in 'Best Horror of the Year.' Ellen Datlow When I first began to have the initial idea for 'Heartsease,' I just wrote a skeleton story; that is, I started her off as this young, bright 16-year-old and then added the events that occurred and where she and other characters fitted in, even writing 3 different endings, as I was not sure where Mary's story would lead to. Ann Turner We haven't usually had to face the extreme questions about liberty and order because we're not a nation of extremists. We love freedom and good government both. David Ignatius I feel like a lot of the portrayals of, in particular, younger minority ethnic characters on television, a lot of their dialogue, a lot of their characteristics, a lot of their personality in a writer's eyes, is kind of propelled through their ethnicity. Corey Reynolds A person who shakes a leg to 'Zor ka jhatka' at a disc doesn't care about its picturization in the film...

My most earnest prayer is that every man and every woman will get it into

his or her heart that they are in very deed the architects of their lives. Heber J. Grant I wasn't allowed to have sugar as a kid. We didn't have candy or soda or anything, so Easter and Halloween were my favorite times 'cause I could eat as much candy as I wanted. Kaley Cuoco I wasn't weaned on the web nor coddled on a computer. Instead, I grew up in a highly centralized world where news and information were tightly controlled by a few editors, who deemed to tell us what we could and should know. My two young daughters, on the other hand, will be digital natives. Rupert Murdoch I think that probably all religions sound bizarre to the people who are not the practitioners of them. Kirstie Alley Whenever you get to win, you feel the satisfaction of all of your hard work, all the sacrifices, all the blood, sweat and tears. It feels right and makes you realise that you are really doing the right thing. Abby Wambach Fame comes and goes. Longevity is the thing ...

In this constant battle which we call living, we try to set a code of

conduct according to the society in which we are brought up, whether it be a Communist society or a so-called free society; we accept a standard of behaviour as part of our tradition as Hindus or Muslims or Christians or whatever we happen to be. Jiddu Krishnamurti In a place like Afghanistan where the society is completely segregated, women have access to women. Men cannot always photograph women and cannot get the access that I get. Lynsey Addario What's important in a cellar is having wines that have a broad range of drinkability, which California Cabernet does. Wines with a broad range of drinkability give you a lot of flexibility; they are the sort of wines that make me feel secure. I think of my wine cellar as security - if the apocalypse comes, I can just go down to the cellar. Robert M. Parker, Jr. Before 'Austenland,' I got do a lead role in 'Northanger Abbey', which is Jane Austen. Growing up in England, you can't really ignore Jane Austen. It...
