3 December 2020 Susan Orlean I want a chainsaw very badly, because I think cutting down a tree would be unbelievably satisfying. I have asked for a chainsaw for my birthday, but I think I’ll probably be given jewelry instead.
3 December 2020 Tom Peters Management is about arranging and telling. Leadership is about nurturing and enhancing.
3 December 2020 John Spratt Domestic discretionary spending on education and health care and the environment has been growing at 2 to 3 percent a year. He says we have to rein it in, but he ignores the spending category that is the big spike in the budget.
3 December 2020 Amy Irving I used to travel in tennis shoes I am just not allowed to anymore. I’m an old hippie from San Francisco.

3 December 2020 Lev Yilmaz I don’t personally try to balance my work because I operate under the assumption that anyone reading or watching my stuff isn’t having a particularly balanced day anyway. But negative attitudes just amuse me more than positive ones.
3 December 2020 Kevin Mitnick I think it goes back to my high school days. In computer class, the first assignment was to write a program to print the first 100 Fibonacci numbers. Instead, I wrote a program that would steal passwords of students. My teacher gave me an A.

3 December 2020 Alison Sweeney We watch a lot of Discovery Channel, shows like ‘The Biggest Loser’ and even ‘Amazing Race.’ You learn a lot about the world, it’s fun and nobody’s interested in beating anybody down. And then the opposite: I’m a huge fan of ‘Survivor.’

3 December 2020 Pete Coors We’ve got gays working there. If they can demonstrate long-term relationships, we make same-sex benefits available just as we do with common-law marriages. Gays are productive people. Some fly airplanes, some work in breweries.
3 December 2020 Patrick Duffy I worked with my dad for 15 years. I apprenticed under him and decided I wanted to become an architect. So I went to college for it and then the acting bug got me.
3 December 2020 LL Cool J The person that made me want to make movies, and the reason I do films, is Bruce Lee. He was an incredible actor, and he had a lot of charisma. Handsome, action, you know, everything was there. I loved Bruce Lee.
3 December 2020 Billy Tauzin The question is what I wanted to do with the new life God has given me. This is the mission I want to take on.
3 December 2020 Anatole France The truth is that life is delicious, horrible, charming, frightful, sweet, bitter, and that is everything.
