The whole secret of the campaigns unleashed against Spain can be explained in two words:

masonry and communism... we have to extirpate these two evils from our land.
Francisco Franco

Every orchestra has its own sound.
Simon Rattle

I thought actors were artists and that artists had to be European.
Peter Falk

I've realized that I have a lot of different loves, and I want to pursue writing, but I can never divorce myself from music.
Carrie Brownstein

Ultimately, all human beings fulfill their patterns. We're set in a certain archetype, and we fulfill that destiny.
Forest Whitaker

As far as my involvement in the Bajaj family affairs is concerned, it is a friendly gesture.
Sharad Pawar

If, before 2020, there is a choice between further spending cuts, more borrowing and tax rises, the priority must be to avoid tax increases. They would disrupt consumption, employment and investment.
Theresa May

When people come to a race, part of it is the anticipation: 'What is he going to do?'
Usain Bolt

I want to get into the NBA and make a name for myself.
Scottie Pippen

I remember my girlfriend dropped me for the guy I thought was really cute.
John Cameron Mitchell

What I can feel the most and what I can remember the most are the melodies I want to write to.
Jon Pardi

I haven't always acted or reacted in a way that made me proud,

but I didn't make that same mistake twice, and I think that's what I love about adversity is that it always reminds me of what's really valuable in life. Sandra Bullock Many of the crew members I work with and continue to work with were friends or have become close friends, and so we keep working together. And I like casting friends of mine or people I know in parts I know would be perfect for them. I like to bring things and people that mean something to me in to my work. Noah Baumbach I've had shows as a painter, as a photographer, I've done shows as a sculptor. I've done a lot of different things and it all comes from experiences that you have in your life, in your creative environment. They all help - I don't even know if they help; maybe they make it worse but they all influence each other, for sure. Norman Reedus It's very different working with all adults. I have a swear jar so that, if they have a potty mouth, I make them pay. That's...

During the mission, Walter Jones, a team member was given a package containing bone fragments

by a Lao. The source said they were from a crash site. He presented photographs showing himself in company with others digging around obvious aircraft debris. Bo Gritz Signs of fatigue soon manifested themselves more and more strongly, and slowly the men dropped out one by one, from sheer exhaustion. No murmur of complaint, however, would be heard. Fritz Kreisler It's hard enough to work and raise a family when your kids are all healthy and relatively normal, but when you add on some kind of disability or disease, it can just be such a burden. Patricia Heaton The thing that makes 'Dirty Jobs' different is that it's one of the few shows that portrays work in a way that doesn't highlight the drudgery. Instead, it highlights the humor. Mike Rowe I'm most comfortable with the Southern dialects, really. It's easy, for example, for me to do Irish because we've got Irish heritage where I come from. Brad Pitt Sight and touch, being thus increased ...

Our present nuclear fusion reactors are classified by the methods used to support the nuclear

fusion reaction, which takes place at a temperature much hotter than the surface of the Sun. Wilson Greatbatch Going to a grammar school, you mixed with all sorts of different types and I used to listen to how they talked. When I did my imitations, I could sound like someone really rough, or I could sound like a cabinet minister. Steve Coogan When there's a terrible illness like AIDS sweeping through, you help people. Bernadette Peters I love myself. Anything that has my name I'm tickled to death. Barbara Corcoran My career in racing started at a very young age in California. Jeff Gordon People who believe in flying saucers are the scrapings from the bottom. Nigel Kneale Children often have a much stronger concept of morality than adults. Nina Bawden Most politicians aren't allowed to express themselves any more. Ken Livingstone I'm pretty good with not being afraid to just go up to people and introduce myself. Elle Fanning I just keep it simp...

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...

The real question is: How do you react? What do you do next? Evade responsibilities?

Bury yourself in work? What do you do? All three of my novels take up that question, although none gives an answer. David Guterson I've been asked a lot lately if tennis is clean or not. I don't know any more how you judge whether a sport is clean. If one in 100 players is doping, in my eyes that isn't a clean sport. Andy Murray Writing songs has always been hard and easy. It's not always easy when you want it to be, and then sometimes it's just like turning on the faucet. That's just the nature of it. Jeff Tweedy Veterans are driven by the same frustrations that the public has with what is happening in Washington... the fiscal irresponsibility and the financial crisis that our country is facing. Pete Hegseth Americans have discovered the fragility of life, that ominous fragility that the rest of the world either already experienced or is experiencing now with terrible intensity. Jose Saramago Schools across India do not have teachers, libraries, ...

The impulse to write comes, I think, from a desire - perhaps a need -

to give imaginative life to experience, to share it with the reader, not to cover up the truth but to deliver it obliquely. Paul Theroux What is problematic about Obamacare is that it is killing millions of jobs in this country and has killed millions of jobs. It has forced millions of people into part time work. It has caused millions of people to lose their insurance, to lose their doctors, and to face skyrocketing insurance premiums. That is unacceptable. Ted Cruz I concentrated on Rossini when I began, and I never really felt any competition. I sang in the best houses, and I believed I was always a first choice. I was lucky in a way - I never felt there was someone else who was getting the roles in another theatre and that we were competing. Juan Diego Florez I thought, 'A biennial needs artists. I'm going to do an international biennial; I need artists from all around the world.' So what I did was I invented a hundred artists from around the world. I figured o...

There's no way that I could do a 9 to 5 job. There's no way.

I was not cut out for that. You come in and you work for three months on the one job. They say, 'Great,' you know, and you're on to the next one - and you never even got fired. It's wonderful. Dennis Quaid You know, the record business is much different than being artist on stage. Herb Alpert We have a thin candy shell, I'm surprised you didn't know that. Tre Cool I started hustling at 12, my mother hustled ahead of me. I was only allowed to because they knew me. Curtis Jackson I could really care less about what they think about me, but at the same time, I do have something to prove. Bobby Brown For even these are no less bestowed on him of pure grace, than are righteousness and salvation themselves. Johann Arndt Technology has to be invented or adopted. Jared Diamond

You have to remember what a super PAC is: a bunch of wealthy donors who

want to send a message traditionally other campaigns don't do. This is the problem with the dark money that's involved in politics right now. Corey Lewandowski I really never thought about the way I looked until boys came into the picture. Then it starts to be like, 'Am I wearing the right outfit? I have to do my makeup for school!' Georgia May Jagger My first job was working at Benihana as kitchen help. In college, I was a telemarketer for a company at the same time I was a bike messenger for this greasy fast-food place. Steve Aoki Despite the growing evidence of health benefits associated with coffee consumption, I still don't recommend my patients drink it - not because it's not healthy, but because there are even healthier choices. Michael Greger I was a little chubby, rosy-cheeked kid. Brad Goreski If you've had something for more than six months, and it's still not repaired, it's clutter. Gretchen Rubin I never wanted to be th...

You know, a left-winger, the barrier to success if you're on the left in commercial

radio is a mile and a half higher than it is if you're on the right. Robert McChesney 'Antiques Roadshow' is my favorite show. Every Monday night I have one hour of appointment television. I get the popcorn out and tell my husband, 'Don't bother me.' Lara Spencer Sometimes a person has to be dead a while before people can appreciate what they did when they were alive. Curtis Armstrong A god implants in mortal guilt whenever he wants utterly to confound a house. Aeschylus It is not as difficult as I thought it was, but it is harder than it is. Eugene Ormandy Field of Dreams is probably our generation's It's A Wonderful Life. Kevin Costner I am really heavy into songwriting. Teyana Taylor I want to be the bridge to the next generation. Michael Jordan Gel doesn't work in my hair because it has a life of its own. Troy Garity It is not only all right but necessary to stand up to George Bush. Russ Feingold

My parents were not at all backstage parents. We had none of that in the

family. It was just very clear right away that I was an actor, even from 4 years old. I've never waited a table. I taught some - I'll teach classes in improv or Shakespeare, but there's some motor in me that needs to do that. John Michael Higgins The public don't know what they want; it's my job to tell them. Alec Issigonis Toward the end of my pregnancy, I felt really big - I gained about 40 pounds, which is a lot for my size. Christina Aguilera Pop music is not a threatening style of music. Joan Jett A man's got to take a lot of punishment to write a really funny book. Ernest Hemingway Tech executives have historically been owners of significant portions of their companies' stock so there is a propensity for them to diversify as a rule. David Coleman X-Men is massive, like nothing I've ever experienced. But great in its own way. Ellen Page The writer knows his own worth, and to be overvalued can confuse and destroy him as an artist...
