I was told, 'Your career's made by what you don't do,' and that always stuck

with me. I drive my agent mad!Maxine Peake

I've never disliked a character I've played. I've always tried to find the humanity and the reasons for what he does.Jeremy Irons

Unlike some viruses, we don't know what the natural reservoir is for Ebola. A lot of people think it's bats, but it's still very controversial; it could have been circulating in insects, in an environment, or in individuals.Pardis Sabeti

For about 175,000 people, Chiranjeevi Blood Bank has supplied blood for free in times of emergency. This is because of the service-oriented attitude of Mega fans.Ram Charan

My poor children have been the subject of all of my experiments. We're still doing what I call 'Amish summers' where I turn off all electronics and pack away all their computers and stuff and watch them scream for a while until they settle down into, like, an electronic-free summer.Shonda Rhimes

I freelanced for the 'Boston Phoenix.'Christie Hefner

At the end of the day, I'm really proud of the work I did to help kids get an equal opportunity, and a lot of them have.Steve Scalise

As digitalisation and the ageing population trends advance, international mobility and the development of employable skills are crucial to balance demographic gaps and surpluses as well as the deficit of skills across the world.Alain Dehaze

When foreign assistance has a clear mission, buy-in from the aid-recipient country, and explicit metrics for implementation, the United States will be able to transition aid-recipient nations into strong trading partners. One of the greatest examples of this successful transition is South Korea.Ted Yoho

I have covered Israeli hostage and M.I.A. cases for more than 15 years, including the covert ways in which Israel's powerful espionage agencies operate to bring soldiers home alive or dead. Over that time, the issue has come to dominate public discourse to a degree that no one could have predicted.Ronen Bergman

Integrating breakthrough technology into everyday products is always a challenge; at the same time, this

is exactly how design makes tech products easily adoptable in life. Yves Behar I enjoy music that is commercial. I think that in order for music to be heard in a lot of different situations, you have to always consider that. Commercial music, for the most part, is popular music, and you always have to keep that in mind. It's not so much financial as making sure it gets the shot and is heard on the radio. Babyface There used to be a tradition within the Hispanic community that, regardless of your political party, you would support undocumented immigrants. That ended with Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz. Jorge Ramos The armed citizen made America free, and the armed citizen will keep America free! David A. Clarke, Jr. History never repeats itself in the same way. Ehud Barak I like Jay Z, Journey, and Kings of Leon. Alex Rodriguez I grew up in a small town where we played around on motorcycles and things, but it really started when I got old enough. I think I was obsessed w

My interest in Virtual Reality (VR) films began for me when I began a fellowship

with MIT's Open Documentary Lab. It was a profound experience to be on MIT's campus one day a week and to enter a new world of storytelling where breaking convention and traditional methods were expected. This was deeply challenging and inspiring. Raney Aronson-Rath Richard Madden, I loved to work alongside him; he's a very funny man. Alfie Allen I really respect Zakk Wylde's guitar playing and his compulsive work ethic. Dimebag Darrell Our movement is evolving. The movement to liberate our sexuality as a human right, that's an ongoing struggle. Gilbert Baker In animation, you can often defer decisions or make changes later. John Knoll I've always been drawn to dark stories. I enjoy reading Flannery O'Connor, Patricia Highsmith, and Margaret Mitchell. Karin Slaughter Each year on Impact Day, I love seeing our people fill classrooms, parks, and training centers to make a difference in communities across the country. Cathy Engelbert Elon M

The past is still visible. The buildings haven't changed, the layout of the streets hasn't

changed. So memory is very available to me as I walk around. Jonathan Lethem I cannot consent that my mortal body shall be laid in a repository prepared for an Emperor or a King my republican feelings and principles forbid it the simplicity of our system of government forbids it. Andrew Jackson Anyone who loses a parent, you have to find those parts of yourself that your parent held true in themselves, especially if they're supportive parents. Anthony Rapp When you borrow money, you should always think how you're going to pay it back. Dmitry Medvedev I'm the world's expert on sterotypes held by academics about athletes and held by athletes about academics. To me, both of them are caricatures. A. Bartlett Giamatti A society in which there are high levels of voluntary activity will simply be a better, happier place than one where there are not. Jonathan Sacks In my life and career I want to embrace ageing because I think that's what's interesting

HAG Records, is a company that I've owned. I've had a couple of gospel releases

on it. We developed a pretty good distribution setup there and we do have something to use in case they don't want to sign us. Merle Haggard I'm a product of good nutrition, cutting edge supplementation and hard training, and I'm an old guy. Warren Cuccurullo Awards are always a pleasant surprise. They are the candy-floss parts of our job - a lovely added extra to attract people's attention. The bottom line is that you want to sell tickets. Sophie Thompson People have to really suffer before they can risk doing what they love. Chuck Palahniuk I am a feminist and I have no problems being called that. Frances O'Grady Like fragile ice anger passes away in time. Ovid If you're doing a music film, you've got to be singing about something. Jonathan Demme The truth is that from birth on we are, to one extent or another, a fairly sensual species. Jock Sturges I used the best technique that I knew to protect my files. Wen Ho Lee You cannot

I came away from the forums with a profound concern about the highly addictive and

destructive nature of methamphetamine. Families are torn apart, lives are destroyed and treatment is difficult to get. Greg Walden But with the slow menace of a glacier, depression came on. No one had any measure of its progress; no one had any plan for stopping it. Everyone tried to get out of its way. Frances Perkins When I was a young player, I would look at players and think, he does this well, and try and pick up good points from them, or he conducts himself well, I'll pick up on that. Richard Gough You do not notice changes in what is always before you. Sidonie Gabrielle Colette The whale is endangered, while the ant continues to do just fine. Bill Vaughan

The first three years, I don't think I would leave my hotel room outside of

tennis, because I was like, 'I got to rest, I got to rest.' It was like sort of a paranoia to do everything as best as I can. Milos Raonic I can read in any book and newspaper about the city of Detroit, but I want to hear what the people in Detroit have to say about Detroit. My best education is actually talking to people. Erin Cummings I believe we move in soul groups; we meet the same people over different lifetimes; we have to finish the unfinished business with those people. And when we do, they walk away from our lives. Shilpa Shetty Some women can't stand being pregnant, getting big and bloated, and hauling around a giant stomach, and some women, for reasons probably understood by Darwin, love it. Rich Cohen I remember being a teenager and seeing Seymour Cassel across a crowded room and being incredibly star struck, and not having the courage to say, 'Hello.' Ira Sachs I'm the little half-black, half-Jewish girl who was odd and awkward. I tr

Songs like the Buck Owens tune, for example, are very simple and straightforward, and recording

it really gave me a chance to get into and get a sense of Buck's personality, a feel for that whole Bakersfield sound. Juice Newton There is one kind of robber whom the law does not strike at, and who steals what is most precious to men: time. Napoleon Bonaparte He is great enough that is his own master. Joseph Hall The universal narrator knows all and can enter a character's head any time he chooses. Arthur Herzog In the case of Marilyn and John Kennedy, I think they did affect change. Sally Kirkland

I love each of my kids in unique ways and try to meet their different needs so

they can thrive and be their personal best. Yolanda Hadid I lived in Paris for about nine months. It was an experience. Sara Sampaio I don't need a pool room with medals and everything hanging up. Sonny Bill Williams I think it's important to do whatever makes you feel your best. Michelle Carter I went through a phase when I was watching a lot of foreign films, just itching to get out of the suburbs and explore. Phillipa Soo I don't believe that a piece of paper will excuse my actions. In the end, only my actions will. Frank Abagnale The Russian economy is a one-trick pony. They're totally focused on natural gas and oil. Kelly Ayotte Klopp would reproach me for not tracking back properly. I took things on board, and I listened to him. I worked hard in training; I stayed behind after training. That's what helped me to shine in the Bundesliga because I scored quite a lot of goals despite some difficult games in the league. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang I do not want to

A guy and a girl can be just friends, but at one point or another,

they will fall for each other... maybe temporarily, maybe at the wrong time, maybe too late, or maybe forever. Dave Matthews I never think about any of my accomplishments and I always get butterflies in my stomach and I never get too comfortable with the status. Romeo Santos Our job as a government is to start with the great underpinnings of our current economic growth - particularly defence and mining - and build on these. Jay Weatherill If you search and search and stop searching, then ultimately you'll find what you need. It is the experience of living. Marion Cotillard He's written some great songs. I thought that 'Blues Man' was a perfect song for me to do as a tribute. Alan Jackson If you're young enough, any kind of writing you do for a short period of time is a marvelous apprenticeship. Irwin Shaw In any country, corruption tends to increase when more respectable means of social advancement break down. Katherine Boo Dancing is kind of my

I take a certain pride in having maintained a reputation for fast copy throughout my

newspaper career. Fast-breaking stories left my typewriter in a hurry. Not great literature, perhaps, but fast, and usually accurate.Walter Cronkite A quarterback is always going to be the most valuable player on a football field because he touches the ball every single offensive play.J. J. Watt Over the years, I've had two ankle operations, torn my hamstring, had my hip resurfaced, and snapped the anterior cruciate ligament in my knee.Darcey Bussell I'm going to make up my own mind as to what I think is in the best interest of our country and Florida.Bill Nelson It kind of varies according to what I'm doing and what my situation is, but, most of the time, I have no idea what I'm doing until the day of.Mackenzie Foy I love Stevie Wonder for his sense of rapture in the music. He can swing through a zappy tune, lift your heart, or drift into a sad ballad with consummate ease.Tim Pigott-Smith If you only write when the muse strikes, you won't get anyt
