The thrill of pushing limits and breaking the rules is in our blood. But we New

Yorkers have a secret that we don't want the rest of the world knowing... We love our dogs.

Georgina Bloomberg

I've been doing my own makeup since I was 15. I would steal my mom's products, go online, watch YouTube videos of girls doing their makeup, and try.
Winnie Harlow

I interviewed more than 100 women about their sisters, but if they also had brothers, I asked them to compare. Most said they talked to their sisters more often, at greater length and, yes, about more personal topics. This often meant that they felt closer to their sisters, but not always.
Deborah Tannen

My grandmother would start making her meat sauce at 7 in the morning on Sunday, and within five or six hours, that smell would be all through the house.
Jerry Della Femina

I was seeing people of color growing up in my media. I was seeing them in positions of power.
Winston Duke

Years ago, people didn't wear seatbelts. Now, most people wouldn't get in a car without putting a seatbelt on.
John F. Kelly

We need to educate our audience. It's so important to have diversity. Let's not fear different voices.
Du Yun

If we can reach populations in developing countries and help them understand the value of their indigenous diet and lifestyles rather than copying ours, perhaps we can reverse the exponential rise in cardiovascular disease that is plaguing them.
Dean Ornish

We don't know each other. Democrats don't know Republicans, Republicans don't know Democrats.
James Carville

Everyone loves bunnies.
Stacy Brown-Philpot

I think the biggest compliment an actor can have is if people forget who they're watching and get lost in the character.
Cuba Gooding, Jr.

Over my NFL career, I've had five head coaches who have helped me become better

at my craft and have helped me become a better human being: Jim Mora, Tony Dungy, Jim Caldwell, John Fox, Gary Kubiak.Peyton Manning There's all kinds of schisms in Satanism, but the thing I like about it is the quest for knowledge.Glenn Danzig I know my body's limits. I've never enjoyed Spin classes, where they're like, 'Push it further!' I'm like, 'No. If I pull something, I can't work tomorrow.' That's why I gave up Bikram yoga.Cobie Smulders I really am a full-blown Scorpio. Whenever I look things up about my sign, it's like, Check, check, check: thoughtful, detailed, moody, stubborn, prideful, emotional.Selah Louise Marley We always find a way to learn and to get better.Travis Kalanick I take a lot of personal pride and motivation to be able to make a difference in areas that may fall through the cracks in R&D across the industry.Vivek Ramaswamy Asa Briggs was a historian of class history, so he felt obligated t...

The monetary impacts of malaria from the household to the global level are significant.

Malaria tends to strike during harvest season, rendering families too sick and too weak to perform the work necessary to earn a living. Malaria-stricken families spend an average of over a quarter of their income on malaria treatment. Tedros Adhanom It's not in the interest of most mapping companies to make those changes as they occur, but if you give the power to local people, you can be sure that you're always getting the best information from the folks that actually drive those roads every day. Noam Bardin We are all pleased when our names are pronounced and spelled correctly. Russell M. Nelson Music and dance is part of everything in New Orleans. So I grew up appreciating it all. Dawn Richard I get things out of my system through my songs, but, because they can be about so many different things, it takes me a while to get through them emotionally. Sharon Van Etten I like to think I've changed the centre of gravity on lots of national debates. Nigel Farage I was a membe...

I mean, I kind of remember... I'm 36 now, so it's kind of hard for

me to relate to what it was like when I was 25, or 24, but I do remember a period in time when that's how I defined who I was, by the music I listened to and the movies I went to. Liz Phair In the last four years, I heard the same thing over and over again from people: 'We've had enough,' 'Our country is drifting,' 'We've lost our way.' Ted Yoho I desire an special interest in your prayers that my faith fail not in the day of adversity. John Hawley There was never a golden era of American radio as far as I can tell. Michael Stipe The world invited me many places. Leon Wieseltier I just like making people laugh. Isaiah Mustafa As an actor, to play someone who's at war with himself, that's so interesting. Hugo Weaving Plumage features constitute a major component of courtship signals. Peter R. Grant Some people don't even know my name, but they know I am the man with the red soles. Christian Louboutin Salvatore Fe...

Money is tighter now, with the advertising dollar spread a lot more thinly across a

whole range of media because of the Internet. It means the television networks have less power to produce shows, and TV is where most Australian actors make their money. Grant Bowler I was going to Miami quite a lot at the time, speaking a lot of Spanish with my friends from Cuba - Lana Del Rey reminded us of the glamour of the seaside. It sounded gorgeous coming off the tip of the tongue. Lana Del Rey I remember nearly having a fit of the giggles during the reading because dear Daniel was SO respectful and serious and I was finding the whole situation funny because I was speaking to his profile. Madeleine Stowe All over the land are vast and handsome pastures, with good grass for cattle, and it strikes me the soil would be very fertile were the country inhabited and improved by reasonable people. Alvar N. C. de Vaca Hollow commitments to action in the future are insufficient. Deferring difficult issues must not be tolerated. Our children and grandchildren expect us to spea...

I don't remember any sibling rivalry growing up, because by the time I was really

conscious, Tom was going away to college. My relationship with him, which is a very close one, really developed in more recent years. David Hyde Pierce 'Yield' was completed in 1997 and released in 1998. In the spring of 1997, I had made a decision to stop taking medications that I had been taking daily since 1988. Jack Irons Science is defined in various ways, but today it is generally restricted to something which is experimental, which is repeatable, which can be predicted, and which is falsifiable. Walter Lang Obviously in Art of Noise, I'm just part of the group, and when I do film scores, it's always in collaboration with the director and other people involved. Anne Dudley It is ever the invisible that is the object of our profoundest worship. With the lover it is not the seen but the unseen that he muses upon. Christian Nestell Bovee The thing is there have been American movies that are similar to Solaris, like Alien had a lot of things that are si...

The reaction to 'Aftermath' has been far worse than to 'A Life's Work,' yet I

find I'm perhaps a little less touched by it. In both cases, I've coped artistically by believing the criticisms weren't right. They upset me, but they didn't challenge my understanding of how to write, nor of how morality functions in literature. Rachel Cusk I'm not one to take revenge. If someone does something wrong to me I leave it in the hands of the universe to take care of that person. Lana Parrilla At the end of the day, I think that I'm making music for me as that 12-year-old kid in front of my boombox every day. I try to think about, if I'm that little kid, what would he like? Danny Brown I can't see where there is anywhere left to move. If you don't have a recount it's hard to receive any more votes. Robert Torricelli I have no friends and no enemies - only competitors. Aristotle Onassis I don't know anyone who enjoys going to the hospital. To help remedy this, I got an idea to create what a Laugh Room in the pediatr...

If Republicans truly are dedicated to the sanctity of life, they should be the first

ones on the front lines trying to get policies for the uninsured. Kurt Eichenwald There aren't good roles for women: the female parts aren't developed: the women are serving the men. Leslie Mann I went to prep school, Eton and Oxford. When people hear that, they think they know you, and you think: 'No, you don't.' Harry Lloyd Blackness is a state of mind, and I identify with the black community. Mainly, because I realized, early on, when I walk into a room, people see a black woman, they don't see a white woman. So out of that reason alone, I identify more with the black community. Halle Berry If you're in favour of any policy - reform, revolution, stability, regression, whatever - if you're at least minimally moral, it's because you think it's somehow good for people. And good for people means conforming to their fundamental nature. Noam Chomsky Children, and sometimes those of larger growth, will not read dialect. Joseph Jacobs ...

I was really fortunate growing up to have a broad musical education. My parents listened

to all kinds of music, rock, soul, Motown, jazz, Frank Sinatra, everything. Mayer Hawthorne A novel wouldn't be a book if there weren't some flights of fancy on the part of the author, stopping time to examine things, or to tell a joke. Ned Vizzini Of course, in later years, I'd studied acting more than ever before - mostly with the late Stella Adler, who was marvelous! - but in my earlier years, I couldn't afford to do this. Marie Windsor I loved junior golf. Nancy Lopez I broke things to get attention. Daniel Day-Lewis Black beauty - he's a dark horse. Tim Vine So many people release albums before Christmas and they get lost in the Christmas rush. Bonnie Tyler I've always felt more at home in the UK than in France. Jean Paul Gaultier A closed mouth catches no flies. Miguel de Cervantes I need a form of escape even when I'm working really hard. David Copperfield

If most people were to take a moment to picture in their minds the average,

not-for-profit, save-the-world girl, they... well, they probably wouldn't, because who wants to think about hemp, hairy legs, and Birkenstocks? But I'd rather eat a pair of Birkenstocks than put them on my feet, and I love, love, love my Christian Louboutins. Nancy Lublin Every morning when I woke up, my mother was already in the kitchen making breakfast. It was always the same: steamed rice, pickled vegetables, grilled fish and miso soup. Each day there was something different in the soup such as tofu or potatoes. Nobu Matsuhisa My son was born during my last semester in college. His due date was Thanksgiving, but he didn't show up until finals week. I brought my books to the hospital and didn't think anything of it. That is what a father is supposed to do. LZ Granderson Unless it's a dead-straight short putt, you should focus on a spot somewhere along the line you want to roll the ball on. Ernie Els Ukippers are the kinds of fools who haven't notic...

We Americans love original ideas. But truly, there are already plenty of good ones out

there, ours for the taking. If I were too proud to copy the ideas of others, I likely wouldn't have even a fraction of my current success. Mohnish Pabrai The organized workers of America, free in their industrial life, conscious partners in production, secure in their homes and enjoying a decent standard of living, will prove the finest bulwark against the intrusion of alien doctrines of government. John L. Lewis Well... I had braces and I had to wear headgear! I loved my braces, actually. For me, they were like a piece of jewelry! Instead of the silver or pewter I had gold braces. It was so much fun, I loved them. I got to change the colors and stuff and I had the rubber bands. Jordin Sparks The animators are absolutely extraordinary. It's mind-boggling. Helena Bonham Carter I've been so good in so many movies that nobody saw. Joe Pantoliano Our parents have always encouraged us to be independent and dream big. Jenna Bush So much emotion goes into writing...
