3 December 2020 Wilfrid Laurier I am not here to parade my religious sentiments, but I declare I have too much respect for the faith in which I was born to ever use it as the basis of a political organization.
3 December 2020 Ethan Hawke I’d be lying if I said I had confidence in every choice I’ve made, that I have faith in every film I do on every shot.
3 December 2020 Jennifer Lopez I do know a lot about Scientology. And I know about the practices. I know all about what the technology is and all that kind of stuff. It’s very helpful.
3 December 2020 Susannah McCorkle I have complete artistic control, and I just do my best album every time and trust it to fate.

3 December 2020 Stephen Ambrose You don’t hate history, you hate the way it was taught to you in high school.
3 December 2020 Ben Lovett I don’t think any other city in the world… the sun doesn’t shine the same way anywhere as it does in New York. And then I guess everyone’s very good at hanging out. Not in a crazy way, but you’re just constantly interacting and learning.
3 December 2020 Martin Luther King, Jr. Discrimination is a hellhound that gnaws at Negroes in every waking moment of their lives to remind them that the lie of their inferiority is accepted as truth in the society dominating them.
3 December 2020 Josh Billings I think when the full horror of being fifty hits you, you should stay home and have a good cry.

3 December 2020 Steve Jobs I’m sorry, it’s true. Having children really changes your view on these things. We’re born, we live for a brief instant, and we die. It’s been happening for a long time. Technology is not changing it much – if at all.
3 December 2020 Sonny Perdue My philosophy of leadership is to surround myself with good people who have ability, judgment and knowledge, but above all, a passion for service.
3 December 2020 David Bohm So one begins to wonder what is going to happen to the human race. Technology keeps on advancing with greater and greater power, either for good or for destruction.
3 December 2020 Barbara Ehrenreich I have a Ph.D. in cell biology. And that’s really manual labor. I mean, experimental science, you do it with your hands. So it’s very different. You’re out there in a lab, cleaning test tubes, and it just wasn’t that fascinating.
3 December 2020 John H. Johnson Dream small dreams. If you make them too big, you get overwhelmed and you don’t do anything. If you make small goals and accomplish them, it gives you the confidence to go on to higher goals.
3 December 2020 Wendy Carlos As human beings we do change, grow, adapt, perhaps even learn and become wiser.

3 December 2020 Paul Simon I don’t consider myself to be a major talent, so the only solace I can take is to hope I’m growing.
3 December 2020 Jensen Ackles The worst gift that I ever gave a girl was a suitcase for Christmas. As in, ‘I can’t think of anything to give you, but here’s a new suitcase.’ Afterward, I was like, ‘What were you thinking, idiot?’
3 December 2020 Lester B. Pearson I cannot think of anything more difficult than to say something which would be worthy of this impressive and, for me, memorable occasion, and of the ideals and purposes which inspired the Nobel Peace Award.
