It is the responsibility of leadership to provide opportunity, and the responsibility of individuals to contribute.

William Pollard

Be still when you have nothing to say; when genuine passion moves you, say what you've got to say, and say it hot.

D. H. (David Herbert) Lawrence

We all had lots of stories of our sad experiences - they mourned the death of my wife with me - but we were hopeful that the children would return.

Otto Frank

But inspiration? - That's when you come home from abroad and are asked: Well, have you found inspiration? - and fortunately you haven't. But the impressions sink in, of course, and may emerge later: None of us has invented the house that was done many thousands of years ago.

And doing a film in that period, and having to really celebrate what they wore back then, how they sat and how they spoke. You know, what the etiquette was back then for a lady. All of those things are like putting on a wig and transforming yourself, which I love.

Charlize Theron

Hugh Laurie

I love science, and it pains me to think that so many are terrified of the subject or feel that choosing science means you cannot also choose compassion, or the arts, or be awed by nature. Science is not meant to cure us of mystery, but to reinvent and reinvigorate it.

Robert Sapolsky

...I feel like a traitor, a phony, a fake. But I am a hypocrite with the best intentions, and I need kissing desperately.

Coco J. Ginger

Oscar Wilde, Lady Windemere's Fa

The public good is in nothing more essentially interested than in the protection of every individual's private rights.

William Blackstone, Commentaries
