On 'Mad Men,' I have a bit of an advantage because I know who gets better as they

repeat a scene and who's best at the beginning.

John Slattery

As a teenager, I played men in my first two plays.
Allison Janney

There's good cops and bad cops, and the good cops have to hold the bad cops accountable. We have to hold the bad cops accountable, too.
Corey Hawkins

I tend to solicit opinions from all those around me. I like to hear opinions and the rationale behind it from everybody in the room. Perhaps it's the result of going to law school and using the Socratic method.
Theo Epstein

Ricky Gervais, met him a couple times. He wouldn't remember it.
Thomas Middleditch

The Democratic Party and DNC have to be a very conspicuous face of the opposition to Donald Trump and all his divisiveness. At the same time, we have to communicate our, I think, positive and inclusive message to everyone.
Tom Perez

Skynyrd is a big family. We have argued, fussed, and fought.
Johnny Van Zant

That's the Apple I want - I want an Apple that's bold and taking risks and being aggressive.
Phil Schiller

The beautiful thing about it is that 'Despacito' is not really an English crossover. It was just another song that the world made a crossover. I didn't really push it; it just kinda went there.
Luis Fonsi

When I was 18, and my looks were what I was - and all that I was - it did feel very limiting.
Christy Turlington

Lucifer has a sense of fun about life; he just likes to play with people. But the sense of humor of the show is what makes the show entertaining as opposed to dark.
Tom Ellis

Gemeoss

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 ...

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...

I don't want to give up living, because I enjoy it so much, and I

love working - I don't expect I'll ever have to stop. But Alzheimer's or something like that would render me pretty useless. Donald Sutherland I had a condition called gynecomastia - I had really big man-boobs, and I got a surgery for it. Josh Trank The idea of music coming from the Church is not new. Morgan Neville My life was filled with family in South Sudan. I am the seventh of nine children, and we grew up in what would be considered a middle-class family. We did not have a lot, but we did have more than a lot of other people. Alek Wek The long journey I've taken from where I started, and to end up at the Governors Awards as a governor - it was an emotional and powerful moment for me. Roger Ross Williams We have to be as good as we want to be as a nation. Brad Paisley My dad passed away when I was 10. Sterling K. Brown There is no better way to create a confident and meaningful connection with someone than to be self-assured and true to yoursel...

I ain't here to argue about his facial features. Or here to convert atheists into

believers. I'm just trying to say the way school need teachers the way Kathie Lee needed Regis that's the way yall need Jesus. Kanye West If you have love in your life, it can make up for a great many things that are missing. If you don't have love in your life, no matter what else there is, it's not enough. Ann Landers Diligence is the mother of good fortune, and idleness, its opposite, never brought a man to the goal of any of his best wishes. Miguel de Cervantes When a reporter sits down at the typewriter, he's nobody's friend. Theodore White The ability to mingle with so many countries and cultures is extremely valuable for men and women. Bill Toomey I never met a man I didn't want to fight. Lyle Alzado The clear-sighted do not rule the world, but they sustain and console it. Agnes Repplier

A couple of my teammates have the rare Ford F650 Super Truck, and they're kitted

out with everything - even flat-screen TVs for movies and video-game systems in the back. Ndamukong Suh My walk is a public one. My business is in the world, and I must mix in the assemblies of men or quit the post which Providence seems to have assigned me. William Wilberforce At the end of the day, just know that God made you, so you can be your own individual, and don't let people give you that peer pressure. Wyclef Jean Religion is often just tribalism: pride in a group one was born into, a group that is often believed to have 'God' on its side. Penn Jillette I have never joined the Facebook world because, to be truthful, social media scares me to death. It is kind of crazy how huge that world is, so I have never joined Facebook, but I do have Instagram and Twitter. Bindi Irwin Some people mistakenly think nature is very nice and benevolent and never betrays. Margaret Atwood What I've learned in my career is that it takes the same amount of effort ...

I like people who are still actively creating in their life, who aren't set, I

don't feel like I'm set. And I don't have any baggage, for better or worse. I don't have any plants or pets or kids. I can lock the door and go. I need to be with somebody for whom that's okay. Dana Delany The feminists who are aware of the effects of patriarchy realize that we are all in the same boat from the dangers of patriarchy, and that the oppression of women is universal. Nawal El Saadawi I worry whether it's not really the best way to live one's life - trying to fulfill the dreams you had as a child. Maybe it's quite a backwards approach. Joe Cornish The thing I like about decathlon is also the thing I dislike: It's the maximum challenge, but also the maximum frustration. Ashton Eaton I mean, the country was founded on free enterprise. There's good things about it, and there's obviously bad things about it. Joan Cusack I am the woman with the cool vintage glasses... I am the proud wife beside her husband... I am the wr...

I would love to meet J.K. Rowling and tell her how much I admire her

writing and am amazed by her imagination. I read every 'Harry Potter' book as it came out and looked forward to each new one. I am rereading them now with my kids and enjoying them every bit as much. She made me look at jelly beans in a whole new way. Sheryl Sandberg The United Nations has come under the control of outlaw nations and self-serving special interest groups. Ginny Brown-Waite So long as war is the main business of nations, temporary despotism - despotism during the campaign - is indispensable. Walter Bagehot Nobody gets any guarantees. John Engler True success is overcoming the fear of being unsuccessful. Paul Sweeney The freelance writer is a man who is paid per piece or per word or perhaps. Robert Benchley Ideas are like rabbits. You get a couple and learn how to handle them, and pretty soon you have a dozen. John Steinbeck And there is a difference between the essence of a Sacrament and its use. Martin Chemnitz My valor is certainly going...

I've been doing this 17 years but I can tell you I have more websites

now than I have ever had devoted to me or my past career or my character. When I got this show, I think I had two fans out there that had created websites on my behalf. Robert Patrick You were there all day long, 12 hours a day. So there was none of this, 'I'm going back to my trailer, my trailer's bigger than your trailer,' that kind of Hollywood nonsense. John C. Reilly I used to get some flack from my agents because I wouldn't even audition for parts where the hero uses violent force to be a hero. Mackenzie Astin Socialism must come down from the brain and reach the heart. Jules Renard Judges are appointed often through the political process. Stephen Breyer Good things happen to those who hustle. Chuck Noll If the Cowboys and Titans ain't playing, I'm not interested. Tanya Tucker
