Governing isn’t as easy as you think. Many of you have taken pledges that are contradictory – to balance the budget and cut taxes, for example. You must be honest about the numbers, since our...

I have had an interest in art since childhood. I loved to draw as a child and still do.

I have been writing since I was old enough to spell. I have never considered not writing.

Let us act on what we have, since we have not what we wish.

It was Dell who came out with their build-on-demand process, where they are able to keep a zero balance inventory. That means they don’t purchase parts until an order is received. That is a way...

I’m sure it is, I’m not for any kind of war, we’ve been engaged in several wars since the second world war and we lost in Korea, we lost in Vietnam, they are political wars,...

Chile has done a lot to rid itself of poverty, especially extreme poverty, since the return to democracy. But we still have a ways to go toward greater equity. This country does not have a...

I’ve played the clarinet since I was a kid. I love to sing, but I’m not much of a singer. Let’s say that when it comes to vocalizing, I have the soul of Billy Bigelow...

Ever since Romanticism, an oppositional mode, artists have the right, and indeed the duty, to attack social convention. But it is ridiculous and in fact self-infantilizing for them to expect to be financially supported by...

The Sicilian Defense album was never released and never will be if I have anything to do with it. I have not heard it since it was finished. I hope the tapes no longer exist.

I’ve always made my own clothes since I was a little girl. I was a terrible sewer, but I was always cutting and customising.

I haven’t had television since 1991, and it definitely influences me. As a child of the 1970s, I couldn’t hold a narrative in my head; I was lucky if I could hold a joke in...

I have done one thing that I think is a contribution: I helped Buddhist science and modern science combine. No other Buddhist has done that. Other lamas, I don’t think they ever pay attention to...

Since I came to the World Bank in 2007, I have argued that we must ‘modernize multilateralism.’

I’ve a belt that I have worn for every single stand-up comedy session since I was 19. I fear if I ever lose it, my career would crumble. That’s my one OCD.

It’s been fascinating watching all those pictures of me with a lot more hair Jeremy, and looking very young. And we’ve all got things we’ve said, twenty, thirty years ago, indeed the whole world has...

It is one of the most effective attitudes of the neurotic to measure thumbs down, so to speak, a real person by an ideal, since in doing so he can depreciate him as much as...

I’ve been a fan of Loretta Devine’s, since I was a kid, from ‘Waiting To Exhale,’ and she’s been in so many of my favorite movies and television shows.

The cult of the individual is killing us. I think Twitter signals the death of western civilisation, but people have been saying that since Demosthenes.

For so many years, I felt so insecure, so inferior, and I still have those moments, but I have a newfound confidence since I got in shape and changed my diet.

My first job was a McDonald’s commercial. It made me want to wake up at 4 A.M. to do something I loved. I haven’t been the same since.

I’ve always worked with a team of actors and filmmakers ever since I was a kid in Michigan making Super-8 movies.

The core character of Victorians is one of aspiration and ambition, and Victorians have, since first settlement days… demonstrated that core character over and over again.

I always thought I was powerful, since I was a kid.

I was involved with drama departments since the 5th grade. I played at it. It was an escape.

I was looking for a name with an old English sound, very easy to pronounce in every language and easy to remember. At the beginning I used J. P. Tod’s, but then in 1999 it...
