I left family court for the vagaries of TV and said to myself, 'Judy,

what the hell are you thinking?' It seems like only yesterday.
Judy Sheindlin

I enjoy celebrating Valentine's Day. It's a nice way to say you're thinking about your family, someone special, or dear friends.
Camila Alves

In some ways, backing the Trump campaign was even harder than battling for Brexit. I received almost total condemnation, including from many senior figures in my own party.
Nigel Farage

I know some women's rights activists have seen so much abuse that they can't stand men, but I have a sense of empathy with the men. Without excusing the abuse they are capable of, many of them are trapped within these communities and bound by expectations they didn't necessarily ask for.
Deeyah Khan

I have had issues in the past with the characters and the limitations of the characters and the structure of the narratives given to me as a woman of color.
Viola Davis

Our basic thesis for bitcoin is that it is better than gold.
Tyler Winklevoss

The House Intelligence Committee and the Senate Intelligence Committee are investigating everything having to do with Russia, and I expect we will find there is nothing there when it comes to the Trump campaign.
Ronna McDaniel

I've worked on what I think are good things.
Dennis Farina

The status quo is never happy when things become a meritocracy.
Marti Noxon

I want women to learn to find themselves.

Amazon is pursuing something called Amazon Key, which lets its couriers unlock

Prime customers' doors and deliver packages. It's pairing the service, which it plans to make available in 37 cities next month, with a camera so users will have intelligence inside and outside their homes, presumably boosting trust and lowering creepiness. Adam Lashinsky War is no picnic. Wars should be prevented, and if you can't prevent them, you have to put them off. Ehud Barak In India, we are forced to choose our specialisation very early, whereas in some other countries, this can be done much later in life. While the British have abandoned this approach, we in India seem to be struggling with the old British system of education. Anand Mahindra Institutions are better served by going direct to end users, establishing a channel for direct dialogue and feedback. It is a world of many to one, not one to many. Richard Edelman I've always been a little left-of-center at school. Katherine Langford From when I can remember, I wanted to be an actress. I am a die hard fan...

My advice to the average investor in 1988 is to be patient and think long-term.

It will take 18 months for confidence to get better and, in the meantime, this is absolutely no place for short-term money. Louis Navellier The beauty of Judaism is that it demands we ask questions, especially of ourselves. Edgar Bronfman, Sr. I am impressed with the belief that our naval force ought not to cost more in proportion than the British. In some things they may have the advantage, but we will be found to have equally great in others. John C. Calhoun I was told by so many people that I wouldn't succeed because I was too different. Ironically, the very reason that people watch my channel and travel thousands of miles to see a show... is because it's different. God didn't send us to Earth to just blend in. We are here to share what makes us unique. Lindsey Stirling If a portion of a redwood is rotting, the redwood will send roots into its own form and draw nutrients out of itself as it falls apart. If we had redwood-like biology, if we got a touch of gan...

Social media reactions to celebrity death have taken on a predictable pattern: an outpouring of

shock with expressions of grief, followed by a ghoulish need to know all the details, to see the scene of the death and the family in mourning. Then a post-mortem dissection of all the perceived flaws the celebrity had. Jennifer Armintrout I am extremely proud to have the surname Ambani. I am proud to be a Gujarati, and above all, an extremely proud Indian. Anil Ambani My favorite memory is Tomorrow. Tomorrow's family moments are what I look forward to every day. No single favorite. Just Tomorrow. Nigel Barker I've never watched an entire episode of 'American Idol'. It's too mean. Christina Aguilera I was at a picnic, and there were a lot of songwriters. I remember praying, 'God I wish you would give me a song.' About five minutes later, my ears popped, and I saw everybody in slow motion. Nobody knew what I was experiencing. Andrae Crouch I think I was affected quite a bit by musical and creative influences that go all the way back to my child...

Since September 11, security has been increased everywhere, and we have new IDs to get

on to the Fox lot. I drove to the security gate, but realized I'd left my ID in my other car. I just broke into that voice - 'Hey, man, I'm Bart Simpson. Who else sounds like this?' The guard waved me through. Nancy Cartwright I'm Canadian, but no, I don't speak French. Cory Monteith My parents didn't believe in luck. They believed in hard work and in preparing me to take advantage of opportunity. Like many parents, they taught me to be generous but never to depend on the generosity of others. Naveen Jain I didn't grow up with a mother, so I don't have that resource to rely on and ask a million questions. Vanessa Minnillo Probably a few weeks after I was born I started having casts put on my legs to straighten them out. After that corrective shoes and with a brace in between. Kristi Yamaguchi I am extremely shy. I am not happy in crowds of people. Glenn Close As a Christian, I think it's really important to find a man of God to trust ...

As costs mount, in lives and dollars, it is natural to second guess, but one

lesson I hope we have learned is that the U.S. cannot go it alone in a policy that leaves American troops taking all the risk and American taxpayers paying all of the costs. John Spratt It is by presence of mind in untried emergencies that the native metal of man is tested. James Russell Lowell I feel uncomfortable because I'm insecure about who I am. Trent Reznor Home is the most popular, and will be the most enduring of all earthly establishments. Channing Pollock We assert that the subject is crucial and only that subject matter is valid which is tragic and timeless. Mark Rothko I'd like to see anyone do what I do for one week. GG Allin I think Little League is wonderful. It keeps the kids out of the house. Yogi Berra

It is impossible to strive for the heroic life. The title of hero is bestowed

by the survivors upon the fallen, who themselves know nothing of heroism. Johan Huizinga We can think so much about life and take ourselves so seriously; I mean, I like to tell people, 'Don't take life too seriously' because you'll cloud the experience. That's what the meaning of life is to me - being able to enjoy the moment. Janine Shepherd Music tells no truths. Philip James Bailey Real talent will get through whatever the obstacles. Kim Wilde It is a waste of money to help those who show no desire to help themselves. Taylor Caldwell I don't think there's any way we can save the polar bears. Will Steger A gentleman is one who puts more into the world than he takes out. George Bernard Shaw Depriving yourself will, ironically enough, lead to rebelling and weight gain. Bethenny Frankel I used to play drums when I was a kid, play the trombone. Dolph Lundgren The Europeans must now honor their commitments. That is the position that F...

America's downgrade may serve as a wakeup call for its policymakers. It is an unambiguous

and loud signal of the country's eroding economic strength and global standing. It renders urgent the need to regain the initiative through better economic policymaking and more coherent governance. Mohamed El-Erian My father is a college professor and that's about the extent of my college experience. I'm sort of a professional student forever. I think just as human beings we always have a student who is alive in us and is waiting to pop up and make us feel like we are 16 years-old again. Gabriel Mann I was shy. I was painfully shy, until fifth grade when I transferred to another school and befriended the class clown. And one day he was sick and I kinda stepped in for the class clown and I said, 'Wow, this is exciting, I'm a little bit nervous.' Nathan Fillion The process of writing a novel is getting to know more about the novel until you know everything about it. And it's been described as a kind of dreamlike state where you're letting the nov...

I remember sitting one time doing 100 interviews in a day, and they're all television

interviews and they're kind of - and you just sit there and they bring these people in and out, and in out. Macaulay Culkin I can be at my house sitting there making music alone, and every single time I've ever done that the first thing I do when I'm done, no matter if it's 4 in the morning... I literally just pick up my phone and I call someone. Benny Blanco The hijab, or sikh turban, or Jewish skullcap are all explicit symbols, but they do not represent a threat or affront to others, and have no bearing on the competence, skills and intelligence of a person. Randa Abdel-Fattah People think I'm a freemason, and I'm not. People think I believe the end of the world is coming on 21 December 2012, and I don't. Graham Hancock I guess after college, I just got really into food. I also think going on the road doing stand-up makes you more into food. Because when you travel like that, one of the things to do is find really good places to eat. Aziz Ansa...

I had my fortune told once at the Great Wall of China. A withered old

lady told my fortune - but it was probably one of these things that are set up to rip off tourists. She told me a couple of vague things that came true, but she was probably just lucky. I would never do it again.Sarah Alexander I will never create a romantic angle to survive on a game show.Karishma Tanna I'm thinking about being the best I can be at ESPN in the studio.Chauncey Billups I am resilient like my mother and have the ability to face any kind of storm.Arjun Kapoor I'm a lawyer. The right to life is important.Jejomar Binay When I dance, I escape the present and become one with my soul.Normani Kordei Literally, when I go to the vocal coach, I'm like, 'You are teaching me nothing.' You know?Zara Larsson Everyone in my family is pretty much tone-deaf.Tobias Jesso, Jr. Money is something that keeps you alive and healthy and just keeps you focused. It's the drive.

As a member of a competitive team, you want to make sure you have yourself

ready to play. You don't control anything but what you do. Joe Torre I can tell you from personal experience it gets a little tiring having to make the rounds on cable shows to explain 'what's up with black folks.' John Ridley We try to entertain first, advertise second. When you find out that it's sponsored, we've already won you over. We try to make it obvious that the brand has made it better. Charles Lincoln Neal As I started college, I started to build software products that I could sell to people over the Web. Jon Oringer In my world view, clearly the Internet is a huge force multiplier for Indian media because it has not crept up on us like something invisible; we've seen it all play out in the West. Raghav Bahl So many people are like, 'I'm perfect.' I'm so imperfect; that's why I'm able to let everything out and let people see everything. 'Cause I'm just a mess like every other person that's a mess ...
