While we're filming 'Bake Off,' I can get really cold, so I'm often holding a

hot-water bottle or layered up under an anorak and a warm hat.
Mary Berry

You have to go into every event with 100 percent confidence and just surf your best because everyone there is there to win, and no one is going to give you the heat. You have to win by a mile to really make a heat.
John John Florence

It's really important to be free and be open and honest about the things you want to do. Just 'cause you want to make a solo record or another record with another band, it doesn't have to be an insult or a slight to the band you've been with for a long time.
Jim James

I love my headscarf. I wear my head wrap every day with my hoop earrings.
Yuna

I've learnt a lot about construction and flexibility from my time at Geox.
Patrick Cox

The first 45 or 50 years of the regional theater movement, all these folks, they built these theaters. The job of the next generation is to maintain them.
Kenny Leon

I went to a very progressive elementary school where I was heavily educated in civil rights. I remember learning about Harvey Milk when I was in sixth or seventh grade and being so inspired.
Olivia Wilde

I will fight with all my power against the divisions that undermine us and which are tearing us apart.
Emmanuel Macron

Taxpayer money should not have to be spent to save a misguided and mismanaged enterprise.
Henry Paulson

We know that society is better - more prosperous, more stable, more peaceful, more cohesive - when women's rights are respected and when women are valued, empowered, and lead the way in our communities.
Justin Trudeau

Sisters are always drying their hair. Locked into rooms, alone, they pose at the mirror,

shoulders bare, trying this way and that their hair, or fly importunate down the stair to answer the telephone. Phyllis McGinley When our Lord says, we must be converted and become as little children, I suppose he means also, that we must be sensible of our weakness, comparatively speaking, as a little child. George Whitefield There's no dancing girls. We're kinda like secondary to the thing. It's a story about these two guys that are in love with this one girl and how it unfolds and what happens. Eric Carr There are men who would quickly love each other if once they were speak to each other; for when they spoke they would discover that their souls had only separated by phantoms and delusions. Ernest Hello If you believe you can, you probably can. If you believe you won't, you most assuredly won't. Belief is the ignition switch that gets you off the launching pad. Denis Waitley Sanity calms, but madness is more interesting. John Russell If there is...

I remember, for the first time, sitting down and consuming books in a matter of

hours. This was such a new experience for me because reading, up until that point, had been such a struggle and source of stress. I think I just needed to find the right kind of stories with which I could identify. John Corey Whaley Having children showed me a whole different kind of love that I had never known. It was something that had always been missing. Complete love. I would die for them. Scott Weiland If I hadn't won at the Worlds and claimed so many ranking points, I would have been struggling for Rio. I'm in a good place now, though, and having the chance to fight for gold in Rio after everything I've been through would be a dream. Bianca Walkden To me, it is like a diabetic with insulin. If that diabetic stops taking insulin, they will die, and I believe that if I don't follow the 12-step programme, I will regress, and that could eventually be the death of me. Trinny Woodall There are maybe 100 actors I look up to, but my first two favourite actors...

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...

In order to be an actor you really have to be one of those types

of people who are risk-takers and have what is considered an actor's arrogance, which is not to say an arrogance in your personal life. But you have to be the type of person who wants the ball with seconds left in the game. Bryan Cranston One principle I've been fighting for that doesn't endear me to a lot of people is that black people can be just as complicated and screwed up as white people. Our motives can be just as base and violent. Suffering does not necessarily ennoble you. Henry Louis Gates I did have reconstructive plastic surgery and a tummy tuck. And from hip to hip, there's a very big scar. It looks better than it did... So I say, if you don't like that skin, have it removed. This is my advice: if you're gonna do it - just go for it. Carnie Wilson But what is striking about this, in a town that often talks about tax cuts, we could quite easily, Republicans and Democrats working together, do something that everybody in America desires, and t...

I basically have needed to go to the piano and give voice periodically to, you

know - I'm always afraid to describe it as a kind of therapeutic process, but nevertheless it was a type of unloading that had to occur due to my personal life with my mother's health or just my professional trials and tribulations. Rufus Wainwright Retailing has gone from an information-scarce to an information-rich environment. Erik Brynjolfsson It is the goal of the American university to be the brains of the republic. Johan Huizinga Let me just say, I've seen a pub or two. Don Johnson Despite our differences, I know that both Republicans and Democrats love America. Marco Rubio The purest expression of the doctrine of Liberalism was probably that of Benjamin Constant. Francis Parker Yockey People care about my fame, not me. But that's fine. I have my own life. Josh Hartnett If we wish our state's growth to continue, then our future will increasingly be with industries that require a highly skilled and technically proficient workforce. Jay We...

It is time that we provide clarity for our seniors, informing them of the services

available that will lower the costs of their prescription drugs and strengthen the overall integrity of the Medicare entitlement. Olympia Snowe The view of the local scene through the eyes of a native participant in that scene is a different window. Kenneth L. Pike Money costs too much. Ross MacDonald Beauty is only skin deep, but it's a valuable asset if you're poor or haven't any sense. Vernon Howard She put her hands around the neck of our production manager, and you know, started to choke him. David Gest How vain, without the merit, is the name. Homer I fell off stage and bruised some ribs. The worst part was that the audience didn't realize I was gone. Richard Marx

There is a great suspicion of saying that anyone, especially a child, is 'the product

of destiny,' or 'formed by fate,' or 'predestined for a certain life.' I am suspicious, too, of efforts to cage children or adults in preconceived ideas of who they are or should be. Michael Gurian I'm drawn to almost any piece of writing with the words 'divine love' and 'impeachment' in the first sentence. But I know the word 'divine' makes many progressive people run screaming for their cute little lives, and so one hesitates to use it. Anne Lamott Music is great; it all depends on what mood you're in, what you want to listen to. If it's party time, you listen to, you know, party music, if you want to dance with somebody. But then again, if it's a slow dance, you need something slow. Tom Jones Cars have a large engine in the front and you have a gearbox, which is cumbersome. Electric cars don't have this problem. The motor is much smaller, the battery is below you. This will allow you to play with different shap...

By the time I land in Iowa, I feel like my mind is more open

to the reality of being back home and focusing on the problems of the people in my district. Bruce Braley How many artists subscribe to the notion that creative success depends on input from the fickle muse or her modern avatar, mental illness? Probably very few. Kathryn Harrison Before I was on 'Idol,' I just sat at home and played video games all day long. Now I get to travel and work towards my dream. It's the best feeling ever. Jessica Sanchez Harvard was also a little bit of a villain in my first book, 'The Dante Club.' I guess there might be a way to make Harvard more of a sympathetic presence, but it's such a powerful institution that it more naturally lends itself toward not necessarily a negative but an obstructionist element in a story. Matthew Pearl I've always been interested in invisible worlds, and I like to visit digital worlds, you know, any world that's imposed on us. Leos Carax I try to take normal things - whether it...

Debates go on to this day about what caused the Great Depression. Economics is not

very good at explaining swings in economic activity. Eugene Fama There was a time when I could only relate to happy works. With time, my taste has evolved. Tina Ambani You can be obsessed with the bad things people say and the good things; either way, you're obsessed with yourself, and I'm not - you can become unhinged so easily. Taylor Swift I guess that in a lot of ways, my writing is more of a character to me than something that I feel personally attached to. Angel Olsen When I came to America, there was a lot of decadence in New York in the early '70s because the city was bankrupt and you could do whatever you want! Maripol Susan Boyle having a meltdown is not controversial. It's human for a 48-year-old recluse to get a little wigged out when she finds herself on the world stage overnight. Shawn Amos I love doing emotional scenes. As I've had a perfect life, I don't really have much to pull from. But it's really fun and not that challen...

Police and firefighters are great, but they don't create wealth. They protect it. That's crucial.

Teaching is a wonderful profession. Teachers help educate people to become good citizens so that citizens can then go create wealth. But they don't create the wealth themselves. Rush Limbaugh I am persuaded that in the case of elected officials, the overwhelming temptation is to conclude that it is more important for your constituents that you be reelected than that you deal honestly with them. James L. Buckley I think to be - for me to be an American is - you know, it's one of the greatest things in the world for - you know, for me just because I've been able to grow up with everything. The freedom. You know, in my eyes this is the greatest country in the world. Michael Phelps I don't often know exactly what's coming next, and that makes it more fun. And you know, for me, this entire genre is all about that; it's all about having fun and getting away from the mundane world for just a little while. R. A. Salvatore We've had three big ideas at Ama...
