I write and film history; I don't make it. One can be a good critic and a moral observer, but one remains professionally detached as a writer and a filmmaker.
Jean-Luc Godard
It's going to take everyone to rebuild a fairer, more sustainable, more beautiful Britain.
Caroline Lucas
I studied acting throughout high school, then modelling took over because it brought more opportunity. When I quit modelling, coming back to Vancouver, I registered at the University of Victoria.
Cobie Smulders
It might sound dramatic and a little grandiose, but as a Latina, I would like to be someone that gives a voice to my culture.
Cristela Alonzo
Coming from a family of preachers, the idea of giving back has been part of my life as long as I can remember.
David Green
I'm a very loyal person and I allowed myself to be defined as somebody who was doing Gordon's bidding. I should have fought back harder to define myself at an earlier stage.
Ed Balls
I'm nowhere with country music. I don't hear much of it, so I shouldn't venture an opinion, but when it finds me, it seems formulaic.
Emmylou Harris
I saw 'The Artist.' It's really beautiful and it's all done to the letter with all the silent film techniques. The costumes were amazing and the dog is so good.
Florence Welch
I've been through a couple of mergers - they're not that fun. And it's easy to lose your focus on this grandiose mission you established for yourself as an independent company.
Jeremy Stoppelman
But to put out a greatest hits on one CD was totally impossible, I just couldn't do it. The best compromise was to put out two CDs - Early Days - which is what it is - and Latter Days.
Jimmy Page
Whether I start or not, I will do whatever I can in whatever way to play my part.
Kolo Toure
Oh, if I could put some of my reckless spirit into these discreet cautious lazy men!
Mary Boykin Chesnut
As a kid, falling was embarrassing. As I got older, I got used to falling and picking myself back up. There's not a sense of failure. It's of disappointment. You train so hard to not make mistakes. When you do, you're learning from that. How do I improve? How do I get better for the next time? Through every failure, there's something to be learned.
Michelle Kwan
A lot of my ideas for books come from newspaper articles. But I don't like to be actively looking for ideas.
Rebecca Stead
You can't obviously predict the future, but I am a fan of the United States and soccer over there continues to grow.
Sergio Busquets
I don't want to be on stage when I'm 57, talking about... 'Let's Get It Started.'
