I call on the Iranian people: it is not too late to replace the corrupt regime and return to your glorious Persian heritage, a heritage of culture and values and not of bombs and missiles...

It's a little known fact that one in three family pets gets lost during its lifetime, and approximately 9 million pets enter shelters each year.

As a chef, you need to respect your guests and their needs. If they decide that they want to eat certain things and not eat others, if for religious reasons or just decide they don't want to eat certain ingredients, you have to respect that.

Joel Robuchon

I was a very good girl for a long time, that's what really drew me to acting. The stage was the perfect place to be outrageous, to be sad, to be angry, to be all these different things.

Joan Allen

No matter how often you are defeated, you are born to victory.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Before the boat docked, however, he confessed because he was contemplating running for president, he couldn't separate from his wife. I believed him when he told me he faced a difficult choice between pursuing personal happiness and his political destiny.

Donna Rice

I will think of you every time I need to be reminded that there is beauty and goodness in the world.
