David Crane
The reason Gov. Romney passed Romneycare as governor of Massachusetts in 2006 was because many Republicans viewed health care reform, mandates and all, as a way to inoculate against Democratic charges that Republicans didn't care about people who lacked health insurance.
Ari Fleischer
I try to get in quiet time and book time, but really, the only time I ever get that is when I'm on an airplane - I have a fear of flying, but I actually love flying because it's the only time I can sleep, and it's the only time I get to read.
Kesha
Employee of the month is a good example of how somebody can be both a winner and a loser at the same time.

Alison Bechdel
I figured out it was a social thing, what women were allowed to do. At a very young age, I decided I was not going to follow women's rules.
Joan Jett
I believe consistency and orthogonality are tools of design, not the primary goal in design.
Yukihiro Matsumoto
Sometime they don't let you know that they know that they don't know everything, but the core of the medical approach is that you try to identify pathologies, which are subsystems within the human body or the larger system that are having undesirable consequences.
Guy Burgess
Greatness, in the last analysis, is largely bravery - courage in escaping from old ideas and old standards and respectable ways of doing things.

It's so warm now, and Thanksgiving came so early - is it just me, or does it not really feel like Ramadan?
David Letterman

Felix Adler
Remove advertising, disable a person or firm from proclaiming its wares and their merits, and the whole of society and of the economy is transformed. The enemies of advertising are the enemies of freedom.
David Ogilvy
Racing a thoroughbred grand prix car in front of a home crowd will be a surreal and mighty experience.
Nigel Mansell
No man deserves to be praised for his goodness, who has it not in his power to be wicked. Goodness without that power is generally nothing more than sloth, or an impotence of will.

So much about religion has to do with rigid, sacrosanct preciousness. I don't live my life that way, and I don't feel that's what Baha'u'llah teaches.
Rainn Wilson
Faith is what someone knows to be true, whether they believe it or not.
Flannery O'Connor
Politicians... talk in generalities and lies, and I think they've caused all our grief. They're so awful, they're really funny. I hate thinking this because my dad loved politics.

Oren Peli
Find your self-respect now. Don't dumb yourselves down. Think of yourself as capable and worthy of finding a guy who is going to respect you, too.

Danica McKellar
Time will inevitably uncover dishonesty and lies history has no place for them.
Norodom Sihanouk

Bill Keller
My philosophy is, don't take no for an answer and be willing to sacrifice your entire project for freedom.
Tim Robbins
I maybe had a first love and had my heart broken, but reflecting on it, I don't think that was love. I think as I'm getting older and having more in-depth relationships, maybe I'll experience it. At the moment, I don't know, exactly, if I've been in love.
Selena Gomez
I also use women as a sex object maybe I'm kinky. However, I like to talk to them as well.
