It is no accident that I made Cartoon Town a simple little village – in many ways it mirrored my home town. And, yes, many of my puppet characters took on some of the more eccentric characteristics of people I knew there. – William Jackson
People are pretty simple: they do what they are rewarded for doing. If they get multimillion-dollar bonuses by taking huge risks with other people’s money – as they still do – then they will continue to take those huge risks, and not give it another thought. – William D. Cohan
People have always said – those words, ‘too conservative,’ is fairly relative. I’m sure that they probably said that about Thomas Jefferson and George Washington and Benjamin Franklin. – Sharron Angle
No, but there are people I grew up with from the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains that would give any person on ‘Justified’ a run for their money in the scary department. – Walton Goggins
The main thing that I learned from editing is that most people, when they’re making a film, they start too early into the story. They will try to set up the characters, they will try to establish things before the plot actually starts. – Steven Zaillian
The smart way to improve broadband is not to junk the existing network but to make the most of it. It’s to let a competitive market deliver the speeds that people need at an affordable price with government improving infrastructure in the areas where market competition won’t deliver it. – Tony Abbott
I just worry because I know I say a lot, often. It doesn’t bother me, it’s more about the people that get affected around me. – Sienna Miller
Not everybody wants to have the same career. I think what’s difficult is when you have two people that do something very, very similar and they both, say, want the limelight. That’s very tricky. – Tori Amos
One of the problems with computers, particularly for the older people, is they were befuddled by them, and the computers have gotten better. They have gotten easier to use. They have gotten less expensive. The software interfaces have made things a lot more accessible. – Steve Case
It’s hard enough to sit at a table and talk to most people as it is. But we can go to some town, and there’s 300 people we’ve never met before, and by the third song, we’re connecting with everyone in that room. – Sturgill Simpson
Some people say hybrid vehicles such as the Prius are only a bridge to the future … but we think it could be a long bridge and a very sturdy one. There are many more gains we can achieve with hybrids. – Takeshi Uchiyamada
But you’ve reached them, and I’ve always wanted to reach people. I’m the first one to say I love my fans because they love that I took a chance. – Steven Tyler
The movie industry used to be completely accessible. We all knew people in it, and nobody made a big fuss. – Stefanie Powers
Brooke and I share some similarities. We’re both passionate, fiercely loyal people. But she is far more outlandish than I’d ever be, particularly with her body and her sexuality. Brooke has made herself weak for men – she only gained self-confidence from their attention. – Sophia Bush
I’m hyped up when I’m working. Some people eat when they’re hyped up and some people don’t. I’m the ‘don’t.’ – Susan Sullivan

Everybody gets everything handed to them. The rich inherit it. I don’t mean just inheritance of money. I mean what people take for granted among the middle and upper classes, which is nepotism, the old-boy network. – Toni Morrison
I thought it would be a lot of fun and I wasn’t going to do the movie without Johnny. The studio suggested a couple people, and I’d never met Johnny, but I thought we’d be a perfect team for this movie because we’re both a little bit unpredictable. – Sean William Scott
I don’t see the point of having 80 million people online if all they are doing in the end is talking to ghosts in the suburbs. – Umberto Eco
I was just on Broadway for four months, and the amount of fan mail that arrived at the theater was just overwhelming. I mean, I had no idea! I guess people suddenly had access to me and knew where to find me, so they got me there, and I was amazed. – Sonya Walger
People might look great on the outside but they all have something that they’re dealing with. – Sara Shepard
If all of us work in accordance with rule of law, if rule of law is implemented, we are all safe, investors are safe, people will be safe. – Veerappa Moily
Thousands of people come to LA every year, and some of them just disappear. Somebody gets them. In the States around 100,000 people vanish each year. I don’t know what that means. Maybe there’s something that just pulls ’em out. – Tobe Hooper
My relationship and the bond with the people in Montreal was kind of special and doesn’t happen very often. – Saku Koivu
For me, faith is more about aspiration than complacency – the smug satisfaction that other people find distasteful. – Tom Hollander
Only a humanity to whom death has become as indifferent as its members, that has itself died, can inflict it administratively on innumerable people. – Theodor Adorno
