I'd never thought of directing as an option for me. I don't know why, because

I'm incredibly bossy. I was surprised how collaborative it is. As the producer, you have to get the money and schedule on time, and that's not what I do best.
Trudie Styler

The mind of a child is no less vagrant than his steps; it pursues the gossamer and flies from object to object, lawless and unconfined, and it is equally necessary to the development of his frame that his thoughts and his body should be free from fetters.
William Godwin

In Judaism, the temple was the most holy site in the world. But if you extend that argument as a metaphor, and you say 'The world is a holy place,' and you're treating this holy place like a money-lending psycho, then Jesus says, 'This is hypocrisy!' and he'd point it out and flip it over.
Jeff Baena

Thinking is my hobby. But sometimes you get to where you're stuck and you can't figure it out, so you just go work on another project. I always have multiple projects.
Dean Kamen

The interest on our debt is going to collapse this country.
Ted Yoho

If you can have a skewed sense of your body, it stands to reason you could develop the same kind of thing about your relationships with others in a social network.
Greg Gutfeld

Never in a million years would I imagine Calvin Klein flying me out to my first men's fashion show.
Cameron Dallas

It's easy for me to see how a business proposition is going to play out, or who our next-generation competitors are, from taking this data point from this customer and another data point from another customer... and jump to Z.
John T. Chambers

With every advance, you have to look over your shoulder and know what you're giving up - look over your shoulder and look at what falls away.
Ellen Ullman

What I worry about ultimately is that when we're stripped of our privacy, when we're stripped of free will, when we start to merge with machines in a more robust way, at some point, we'll cease to be identifiably human. And therefore, I think our humanity is, in some ways, the thing that's under existential threat.
Franklin Foer

You can make people feel valued or cared for by design alone. It's not purely

about money. It's about how we choose to value human experience.Thomas Heatherwick I do a big roast of Trump during my set now - which I clearly expanded on - because there's so much to make fun of him about now.Lisa Lampanelli A vaccine that prevented tuberculosis would merit a Nobel Prize, but it's just very difficult to develop.Tom Frieden I go through the same kind of situations as other people. I have to give that to people, because people have this facade, this mirage, this mirror about me.Tory Lanez The wild thing is that when I'm in the band, I can control my destiny with four other guys. As a composer sitting in the audience, you can throw good vibes at everybody, but you can't control anybody's destiny, so it's really unsettling.David Bryan I'm an actor, and I don't judge my parts.Swara Bhaskar As a competitor, you want to be out there in the fire with your teammates.Brock Osweiler We wish to be treated 'not as ordi...

I'm very fortunate to have spent so much time in the industry and to have

lived through several generations of filmmakers, actors and technicians. There's a huge volume of experience seeing people change and seeing content change. Amitabh Bachchan It's a rule to give all, and it can make the difference if you work more. If you don't have to give all, and you still win, what's this? Jurgen Klopp Outside football, I just love life, you know. We're lucky to play football, to have all this body. Everyone's watching us. You see how many people, they come and watch the game. It's unbelievable, you see how many people they come. They shout your name and just enjoy life. Paul Pogba Innovation is a game of numbers. How do you get enough ideas into the pipeline? Shari L. Ballard 'Monty Python And The Holy Grail' is a hugely important movie to me. I remember watching it for the first time on cable when I was about 13 years old. James Gunn I know what it is to be out entertaining millions and yet wanting to be home beca...

When it came to 'Binge,' it wasn't my intention to get on a little soapbox

and have a teaching moment. It was more, 'Here are things that have happened to me; here's what I've learned from it. If you'd like to learn from it too, great; if you just like the entertainment aspect, that's fine too.' Tyler Oakley I love if someone invites me to a restaurant, so I don't know if that's a feminist. Carine Roitfeld Being fired from a show - being fired in any way, in any instance, any business - is just hard. Kathleen Rose Perkins Just as many people flee Hollywood as those who flock to it. Hollywood can be an acquired taste. Shawn Amos I kind of liked the idea of filming musicians. I could like a musician and know, at the same time, maybe nobody else maybe liked them much or appreciated them. D. A. Pennebaker I believe in glamour. I am in favor of a little vanity. I don't rely on just my genes. Iman Dickens is always full of surprises. Claire Tomalin A musician's whole life is to listen. Wynton Marsalis ...

Blushing is thought to be linked to increased levels of norepinephrine in the brain, which

may be associated with romantic feelings. It signals that we are interested and excited, which is attractive to men. Helen Fisher There are two contrary impulses which govern this man's brain-the one sane, and the other eccentric. They alternate at regular intervals. Franz Schubert I also eat fruit instead of drinking juices. That's something I've read up on. I think that if you drink a lot of fruit juice you take in way too much sugar. You'd be better off eating a bunch of strawberries or apples. Kris Humphries History can bring luck: this is what we can call optimism. Stephane Hessel I want to bring more gymnastics on television. Shannon Miller Better not to exist than live basely. Sophocles I don't miss acting at all. Zachery Ty Bryan I was born in the USA, which many people still find hard to believe. Cesar Romero There's no mystique to acting. It's only common sense - and a bit of courage. Bill Hunter Life has a higher end, th...

My parents moved to American Samoa when I was three or four years old. My

dad was principal of a high school there. It was idyllic for a kid. I had a whole island for a backyard. I lived there until I was eight years old and we moved to Santa Barbara. Eric Stoltz If you accept the belief that baptism incorporates us in the mystical body of Christ, into the divine DNA, then you might say that the Holy Spirit is present in each of us, and thus we have the capacity for the fullness of redemption, of transformation. Thomas Keating My first name, Benjamin, dates back a thousand years earlier to Benjamin - Binyamin - the son of Jacob, who was also known as Israel. Jacob and his 12 sons roamed these same hills of Judea and Sumeria 4,000 years ago, and there's been a continuous Jewish presence in the land ever since. Benjamin Netanyahu I was cast in 'Thor' and I'm cast as a Nordic god. If you know anything about the Nords, they don't look like me but there you go. I think that's a sign of the times for the future. I think we will see...

With 'Good Will Hunting,' Miramax made certain the recruited audience wasn't expecting to laugh at

Robin Williams like they normally do. From my limited experience, you can really blow test screenings by conducting them in the wrong way. Gus Van Sant I certainly have opportunities many can only dream of - but in most ways I'm a typical girl in her 20s trying to forge a career and represent herself in what can sometimes seem rather strange circumstances. One of the most attractive has been the chance to publish 'Celebrate.' Pippa Middleton I realized early on, maybe better than some of my competitors did, that a textile business can run only if you have scale. I decided to horizontally and vertically integrate, adding everything from spinning, dyeing, weaving, and stitching to processing and packing. Mian Muhammad Mansha Research shows that children do better in school and are less likely to drop out when fathers are involved. Engaged parents can strengthen communities, mentor and tutor students, and demonstrate through their actions how much they value their chi...

The postdoc explained to me how to distinguish different sorts of particles on the basis

of the amounts of energy they deposited in various sorts of detectors, spark chambers, calorimeters, what have you. Eric Allin Cornell What makes old age so sad is not that our joys but our hopes cease. Jean Paul Principles are a dangerous form of social dynamite. Katharine Anthony There are no friends at cards or world politics. Finley Peter Dunne Fear is the mother of foresight. Thomas Hardy Taking something from one man and making it worse is plagiarism. George A. Moore Headlines twice the size of the events. John Galsworthy You must continue to gain expertise, but avoid thinking like an expert. Denis Waitley

If you're going to maintain true authorities over a subordinate organization, you have to have

some control over policy formulation of that organization and also the resources that are applied to it. Jack Keane Sometimes you get hungrier when you taste it. John McEnroe I do not watch horror films. At all. I am not a horror film girl; I don't have the stomach for it. I've seen a few in my lifetime, like 'The Shining' or 'Carrie,' but I can't sleep for, like, a week after I see something like that. Malin Akerman My husband is very supportive - he wants me to work but understands I also want to be with the kids. Holly Marie Combs I see no reason why France and Britain should not have excellent relations - we are old allies. Marine Le Pen I was a gay kid who didn't know I was a gay kid, which was really challenging because you think there is something wrong with you until you understand what it is. Jillian Michaels It's not about the stuff. The issue is how we use that stuff and how do we train people to use that stuff. Do we use...

I have ballet class every other day for two hours. And for 'Six Feet Under',

last week there was a sequence where I had to do a whole choreographed dance number, so I had four hours of dance practice every day. Michelle Trachtenberg Salman Rushdie, indeed any writer who abuses the prophet or indeed any prophet under Islamic law, the sentence for that is actually death. Cat Stevens I have always liked shows that have laughter in them. David Walliams People working in the private sector should try to save money. There remains the possibility that it may someday be valuable again. Norman Ralph Augustine The Roman Catholics must know as well as we do that 'Popery' when encouraged by government has always been dangerous to the liberties of the people. Lord George Gordon

The first painting that I realised I liked was 'The Garden of Earthly Delights' by

Hieronymus Bosch, when I was six years old, at the Prado in Madrid. I still find myself returning there every time I'm in the city. Carolina Herrera Architecture to me is whole. I cannot say I only care about this 25% and the other 75% I let go... it's just I want to work the way I want to work. In my shop, you can order certain things and other things you cannot. They are not available. Peter Zumthor During the financial crisis, I worked with hundreds of executives who struggled as a result of their thoughts about job security. When their beliefs changed, so did their emotional experience - and they were then able to focus on the task at hand more effectively. Andrew J. Bernstein I mean, I think we're put here on earth to make your own destiny, to begin with. I don't think there's anything you can do this way or that way to change anything. Waylon Jennings Our working hypothesis is that the status of knowledge is altered as societies enter what is known...
