Everybody's gone through high school; everybody understands that dynamic. Some people have a great time,

and some people don't have a great time. My high school experience was not the greatest. I wasn't necessarily bullied, but I was one of those guys that just goes along, and I didn't really feel connected to many of the social cliques.
Ross Butler

I think a great piece, whenever it was written, gets under our skin, makes us feel something. That's what Beethoven was trying to do.
Steven Stucky

I was not aware of what my dad had accomplished. I grew up with him playing football.
Michelle Carter

I try to stay positive and be very, very active.
Goldie Hawn

Maybe libertarians especially like Reddit because it is a perfect marketplace of content. Every Redditor is created equal, whether you're the highest karma Redditor or a brand-new Redditor with 10 karma points. No submissions or votes are more equal than others.
Alexis Ohanian

The show is very special to me, as I found my life partner Vivek Dahiya while working on 'YHM.' The entire cast and set has become like a second home to me.
Divyanka Tripathi

I get butterflies every time a record comes out. I'm like, 'I hope people like it. I hope people buy it.'
Dr. Dre

I am full of optimism. The world hasn't beaten it out of me yet. And I'm going to work very hard to make sure that they don't.
Jordan Gavaris

I guess, as a director, you sort of take the script, and you find ways to interpret it.
Duncan Jones

I've had 30 hamstring tears.

When I was 17, I worked in a mentoring program in Harlem designed to improve

the community. That's when I first gained an appreciation of the Harlem Renaissance, a time when African-Americans rose to prominence in American culture. For the first time, they were taken seriously as artists, musicians, writers, athletes, and as political thinkers. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar I only make movies that are interesting to me. Brian Grazer I wouldn't say I was organised at all. I just have to prioritise. Is it more important for them to be organised, or to have their dinner, do you know what I mean? Jo Brand The courage in journalism is sticking up for the unpopular, not the popular. Geraldo Rivera A happy life must be to a great extent a quiet life, for it is only in an atmosphere of quiet that true joy dare live. Bertrand Russell I think Mick Jagger would be astounded and amazed if he realized that to many people he is not a sex symbol, but a mother image. David Bowie I enjoy my job as long as I can create a character, otherwise it's boring. Jav...

I call it an old-fashioned seafood house for the new millennium. We are trying to

update what we know as old fish houses and places like that, which are great, but I want to give it a new, fresh look with updated versions of the classics we all love. Todd English Poor men's reasons are not heard. Thomas Fuller Had Calhoun been advised by me, he would have been the most popular man in the United States. Duff Green The secret to humor is surprise. Aristotle I'm always looking for a low-budget script with an interesting character to play. Walter Koenig I dream of you to wake; would that I might Dream of you and not wake but slumber on. Christina Rossetti Honor among thieves is the ancestor of all honor. John McCarthy

This battle for 'common-sense' gun control laws pits emotion and passion against logic and reason.

All too often in such a contest, logic loses. So, expect more meaningless, if not harmful, 'gun control' legislation. Good news - if you're a crook. Larry Elder I drive a lot. Just for pleasure. Sometimes I'll get in the Cadillac and drive around the city or the country, kind of trying to get lost basically. Y'know, just see where roads lead. Frank Black You and I will meet again, When we're least expecting it, One day in some far off place, I will recognize your face, I won't say goodbye my friend, For you and I will meet again. Tom Petty We must dare to think 'unthinkable' thoughts. We must learn to explore all the options and possibilities that confront us in a complex and rapidly changing world. J. William Fulbright Nothing contributes so much to tranquilize the mind as a steady purpose - a point on which the soul may fix its intellectual eye. Mary Shelley Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such fr...

I do everything I can to have a diverse career because I just want to

have options. I know that I can do Hamlet or I can do Stanley Kowalski, you know. Sam Rockwell I've been pretty good about keeping my nose to the grindstone. I feel like I won a lot of matches from hard work and persistence, even maybe when I had better options as far as shot-making. Andy Roddick When I want to render these fine nuances, I do not find them in the subject, but in the nature of women in real life who seek unhealthy emotions and are too stupid even to understand the horror in the most appalling situations. Gustave Moreau There are those who leave without our needing to detain them; we have said all there is to say. Richard Eyre I worried that people wouldn't like me. Now I try not to worry and focus on being happy. Lea Michele Americans are pragmatic, relatively uncomplicated, hearty and given to broad humor. Herb Caen I honestly think that's one of the greatest motivators of art - the fear of not making great art. Jason McCoy The two citi...

There is constant talk about the intermarriage crisis: who is a Jew and how

we define a Jew. That doesn't go over well with young Jews trying to figure out whether they want to be a part of this thing or not. Tahl Raz I've been studying voice for quite a while, especially opera, for at least seven or eight years. Shelly Burch Like anything, I remember who I work for. You work for the people who sent you to office. Darryl Glenn For the bourgeoisie, the main danger against which it had to be protected, that which had to be avoided at all costs, was armed uprising, was the armed people, was the workers taking to the streets in an assault against the government. Michel Foucault My grandmother is a huge part of my life. She's just a great woman: a woman of the church. Chance The Rapper I don't think we can fix poverty without fixing housing, and I don't think we can address housing without understanding landlords. Matthew Desmond One of my best friends since I was eleven years old is a gay man, and I knew his struggle. It was a tough life, you ...

I have come from a background where I haven't had lots of money to put

me on the map. I've had to work very hard for what I've got. Charlotte Dujardin Flossin' is a term like when you're 'fly.' It's like, 'I floss. I walk around with my head up; no one can touch me.' Kendra Wilkinson You grew up with America on the TV, and you think you know a place before you get there, and you have this idea of it in your head. Stephen Morris One of the rules of running for Congress is no matter where you go, you speak like you're speaking to the whole district. Jon Ossoff I am not afraid of saying something and going and pursuing it. That's it. I see it in my mind. I say it out loud. I go and do it. Conor McGregor The solution to transportation inefficiencies lies at the intersection of collaborative consumption and the social graph: Shifting transportation from ownership to access. John Zimmer I've always wanted to write, but coming from a small-town background - I was born and brought up in Ludhiana - you think you...

I used to have nightmares about the civil war when I got to England at ages 14 to 15.

It took me some years to get over that. Alek Wek Hollywood has been an enormous part of my life, as I know it has been for countless fans all over the world. Debbie Reynolds There's a thing in comedy where you take one step into a bad idea, but if you take 10, then it becomes a good idea again. Jonathan Krisel Medical disenfranchisement is fueled by a host of factors that include worsening shortage of primary care doctors in needy communities and a troubling scarcity of providers willing to treat the uninsured or publicly insured. Adding to the trend are fewer medical students choosing primary care over more lucrative and specialized fields. Danny K. Davis Bangladesh is not a rich country, but we have a big heart. Sheikh Hasina My goal is to be really incredible by the time I'm 70. Kurt Elling Music should be judged on what you hear, not what you think you might hear. Carlene Carter When I was young, it was television that was taking off, and so you had people worried that peo...

I've always known that I'm very, very ordinary looking. But I'm not alien looking. I

am an artist here to play characters. Dhanush There are direct paths to a successful career. But there are plenty of indirect paths, too. So many young people I speak to nowadays think that the only way to get to such a career is by the direct path; but that really only makes sense in certain circumstances. Clayton Christensen I grew up outside Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in a little town, and went to a regular high school. I was a... very average student in that high school. Then I joined the Navy, and while I was in the Navy, I was in a motorcycle accident and woke up deaf in a hospital. I. King Jordan I think that you can love people without it being the great love. Taylor Swift The people want government that works for them at every level. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo Money doesn't buy happiness. But happiness isn't everything. Jean Seberg Growing up in a band is weird - you get stuck hanging on to what it is you think you are. But what I took into Depeche was ...

People like Bill Murray are incredible at what they do and are definitely my flavour.

Although Will Ferrell, Sacha Baron Cohen and Ricky Gervais are also incredible actors. In their comedy, they make these stupid people feel so real. These guys are really setting the bar very high, and I learn as much from them about acting as I do about comedy. Jason Bateman Modi may be rich in politics but is poor at heart. Kapil Sibal I don't like the word 'ladylike.' Emilia Wickstead Limiting the destructive risk-taking by large financial firms and banks which are 'too big to fail' is needed. Sharan Burrow A girl's best friend is her pride. Vanity I think a lot of times you have to face your fears. I think everybody has to face their fears. Nick Saban In my experience, the most effective professionals in business and government have the ability to get things done. They're trained to work with multiple stakeholders, to understand how to identify a problem, devise solutions, to compromise and work well with others. Henry Paulson The bit that I've alway...
