I sometimes get asked, 'What's it like, being spotted?', but the truth is I don't,

ever. I love that I can walk around, being private.
Romy Madley Croft

My style is not to challenge anything.
Alex Rodriguez

We need to understand the difference between freedom of religion - which is absolutely guaranteed and I would fervently defend. Sharia law is politics; it's not religion. If you say that a woman is voluntarily going to be of lesser value than a man, which is in sharia law, can we allow that?
Gary Johnson

I am on the phone with my sisters every day.
Bonnie Hunt

Writing is a way of drifting within my own mind: almost a solitary process, so to speak.
Twinkle Khanna

I gain strength out of familiar surroundings.
Fedor Emelianenko

I am actually better at predicting or talking about 30 years later than three years.
Masayoshi Son

As a man, if you're married, your happiness is with her happiness. If she's unhappy, everything's messed up. It's a woman's world for sure.
BJ the Chicago Kid

When I was a kid, I had asthma, so I would have to take cod liver oil all the time. So anything fishy that reminds me of that taste, I can't eat. I love Chilean sea bass because I don't taste it there. But salmon? No, no, no.
Tyler Perry

You don't come to our shows if you want to look cool.
Bryce Dessner

Real science is the greatest, most exciting springboard I have available to me as

a writer, and I don't feel the least bit constrained by it. Mark Waid I said I reject any form of bigotry, bigotry of all kinds. Steve Scalise I'm trying to enjoy my time at home and be around my kids. Rey Mysterio The thing that I love about 'Scandal' is every character, it's not clear if they're good or bad. Everyone is both good and bad. Nazanin Boniadi Many of the basic lessons of business, such as the critical value of customer service or measuring risk against reward when investing capital, have essential application in government, but not in a vacuum. John Hickenlooper I grew up in London, one of four children. We were a very loud family, not a lot of listening, plenty of talking. My mum was a hearth mother: she loved to gather us all around her - Sunday lunches were a big thing. She was very good at thinking on her feet - people used to say she should go into politics. Damian Lewis When you're an independent artist, you need as much play or promotio...

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 ...

Tough times have always lent themselves to nativist sentiments and closed-door policies. But in the

case of highly skilled immigrants, these policies are a recipe for stagnation. James Surowiecki I use that as my responsibility on the show, to be the pragmatist. Fisher Stevens I don't have to put on shoulder pads and run out there and let somebody hit on me a little bit. Emmitt Smith Nothing scares me but God. Lil Wayne Not to like ice cream is to show oneself uninterested in food. Joseph Epstein One's life has many compartments. Harold Pinter Government just simply can't do everything for everyone. Jan Brewer I now walk into the wild. Christopher McCandless No, I'm not a scientologist. Katharine McPhee I always look for reality. I look for plain truthful roles. Jim Caviezel

I love being in the studio, and I am a huge fan of live music.

Without writing good stuff in the studio, you have nothing to play live. Anthony Hamilton I purposely don't talk about money, because people are already skeptical about TV preachers. But I do say that I want you to be blessed. To me, prosperity is having health, having great children, having peace, good relationships. It's not about the money. Joel Osteen When I was between 2 and 3 years old, I got to know my first non-human being. The non-human was a cocker spaniel named Baba. We weren't friends, Baba and I, nor enemies. He wasn't my dog. He belonged to the people my mother worked for, and he lived in the house with them and us. Octavia E. Butler I was considered the luckiest of all the female gypsies since I landed the job as social secretary to Ambassador and Mrs. David Bruce at the American Embassy. Letitia Baldrige Some musicians like to decorate their walls with discs saying: '1 million records sold in America.' I prefer to put up discs marking...

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...

If the film is a hit then everyone shares the success. If it is going

to be a disaster then it might as well be because of me, not because of somebody else. Salman Khan Is Europe going to be breaking? I don't think so. I think the euro will stay. I think at the end of the day Europeans will find the solutions in order to hold Europe together. Carlos Ghosn Attending that Convention and talking with those people and many others convinced me that I should become a blogger in my efforts to reform the government and uphold the integrity of the Constitution and the laws made in furtherance thereof. John Jay Hooker I always liked serve-and-volley players and big athletes. Richard Krajicek I never read reviews at all. I'm proud of the work I did. Nicole Kidman I only understand friendship or scorched earth. Roger Ailes It's a wise thing to hold back. Julian Clary I don't like violence. Katey Sagal I get nervous every time, for every single performance, before getting up on that stage. Thia Megia Those early days of come...

When you look in the mirror, what do you see? Do you see the real

you, or what you have been conditioned to believe is you? The two are so, so different. One is an infinite consciousness capable of being and creating whatever it chooses, the other is an illusion imprisoned by its own perceived and programmed limitations. David Icke I just feel exciting. Li Na Hey, we have obligations. We all work for a living now. Michael Irvin Pain is a beautiful thing. When you feel pain, you know you're alive. Criss Angel There are beautiful examples of art done by chimpanzees in human care. Frans de Waal My friends that are snobs think its cool I did a movie with Albert Brooks. Robin Tunney Fighting is dancing. Look at a great boxing match, and it's a dancing. David Lyons If it is a shame to be the second man on Mount Everest, then I will have to live with this shame. Tenzing Norgay I enter my studio at 9 a.m. I have lunch here, I return right away to my work and I go out to dinner at 8 p.m. My daily tasks vary very much. Oscar Ni...

Those are my favorite kind of parts to do, just being a goofball and seeing

how far you can go with something until you're just way out of line. Malin Akerman Psychoanalytic investigation has shown that in mental patients excessive affection often turns to violent hostility. Karl Abraham You will soon find that I am a bit obsessive about my work. And that is a little sad, one often feels strangely restricted, not finding time to simmer, although one actually has many interests. Arne Jacobsen My father ran a corner drug store where he worked night and day, seven days a week, until he died of a stroke. He literally worked himself to death. R. T. Rybak Social Security is a social insurance program - it is not designed to be the same thing as a 401(k). Paul Krugman I had six silly tattoos done when I was young and I bitterly regret them. I've thought about laser surgery, but that leaves a scar, so I'm just leaving them. Andre Benjamin I get more anxious than nervous before a concert. Miley Cyrus It looks like you're going to ha...

I find with television, you have to play personality, whereas onstage,

everyone talks about 'the character,' and what you do. It's a very different thing, because stage is much bigger, but on television, for things to come across to the public, I think you have to play a bit of your personality. John Barrowman Most people sell stock to pay taxes, but I didn't want to sell any stock. Christie Hefner I wasn't campaigning for a role in a Hollywood television series, it was a fluke. So you've got to have a measure of good luck, you really have, being in the right place at the right time. Patrick Stewart I love to read about healthy eating and preach to my husband, who doesn't listen. Now I'm trying to teach it to my daughters. Martina McBride I was able to read a movie before I was able to read a book. Guillermo Cabrera Infante You have to dream dreams to live dreams. Eric Lindros That is partly why women marry - to keep up the fiction of being in the hub of things. Elizabeth Bowen Films are amazing. To be ...

One of my teachers once said that the way you know you're on the right

path is that it works. Now, that doesn't mean you don't run into blocks and brick walls, but it does mean that you can find a way around them or find a way to change yourself or your project in order to find the flow again and have it work. James Redfield To me the notion that Palestinians are actually Jews is, I think, quite revelatory and very radical and a possible bridge that has been ignored, I think, in this entire controversy and there's ample evidence to support it. Lawrence Wright So, for the most part, I really like when I read a scene that scares me and makes me sweat a little bit, thinking about doing it. That's usually a good sign to me. Lily Rabe As far as I know, if you take your time, write a good script and make a good film, then give the audience time, they will accept it. Ajay Devgan I want to reach as many people as I can. Lee Ann Womack Women artists are still treated differently from men. Yoko Ono It's the cushiest job, but so...
