3 December 2020 Alistair Darling Our goal is to make finance the servant, not the master, of the real economy.
3 December 2020 Niels Bohr When it comes to atoms, language can be used only as in poetry. The poet, too, is not nearly so concerned with describing facts as with creating images.
3 December 2020 Vincent Cassel Cronenberg’s a lot of fun, and that a lot of people don’t know watching his movies. He doesn’t take himself seriously. He’s still reinventing himself.
3 December 2020 Ted Nugent The war is coming to the streets of America and if you are not keeping and bearing and practicing with your arms then you will be helpless and you will be the victim of evil.
3 December 2020 David Cameron I have no time for those who say there is no way Scotland could go it alone. I know first-hand the contribution Scotland and Scots make to Britain’s success – so for me there’s no question about whether Scotland could be an independent nation.
3 December 2020 Barney Ross All we had aboard the ship that morning was one Annapolis graduate and three reserves.
3 December 2020 Hillary Clinton In nearly every religion I am aware of, there is a variation of the golden rule. And even for the non-religious, it is a tenet of people who believe in humanistic principles.
3 December 2020 Omar Bongo For about ten years now, the struggle for democracy and the respect of human rights has been in the focus point – if not a commodity – of political groups aiming to rise to power.
3 December 2020 Anthony Michael Hall I think that obstacles lead to growth and ultimately, the most learning I’ve done in my life is between jobs.
3 December 2020 Marc Jacobs I think journalists have the right to their opinions but I think their opinions should be based on history and what they see, not what they feel, how long they’ve been waiting or whether it’s raining or it’s snowing or whatever.
3 December 2020 David Hockney Shadows sometimes people don’t see shadows. The Chinese of course never paint them in pictures, oriental art never deals with shadow. But I noticed these shadows and I knew it meant it was sunny.
3 December 2020 Gloria Stuart When I graduated from Santa Monica High in 1927, I was voted the girl most likely to succeed. I didn’t realize it would take so long.

3 December 2020 Gerard Depardieu The relationship between an actor and a director is like a love story between a man and a woman. I’m sure sometimes I’m the woman.

3 December 2020 Joseph Smith, Jr. In your hands or that of any other person, so much power would, no doubt, be dangerous. I am the only man in the world whom it would be safe to trust with it. Remember, I am a prophet!
3 December 2020 Yann Martel How do you live with evil? Art is traditionally – certainly with my secular background – the answer, but art is very self-referential, whereas religion claims to go beyond the bounds of human existence.
3 December 2020 Herman Melville Is there some principal of nature which states that we never know the quality of what we have until it is gone?
3 December 2020 Alan Dershowitz We don’t have an Official Secrets Act in the United States, as other countries do. Under the First Amendment, freedom of the press, freedom of speech, and freedom of association are more important than protecting secrets.
