Intolerance respecting other people’s religion is toleration itself in comparison with intolerance respecting other people’s art. – Wallace Stevens
Everybody recognises that giving young people competitive outlet through sport is a very good thing. – Sebastian Coe
When people say that you kind of just get – you know, just feel like a little buzzed or dazed or had your bell rung – they consider that a concussion. I wouldn’t. But if that is considered a concussion, I would say any football player at least records 50 to 100 in the course of a year. – Troy Polamalu
On July 2, 1964, President Johnson signed into law the Civil Rights Act. Its enactment, following the longest continuous debate in the history of the U.S. Senate, enshrined into law the basic principle upon which our country was founded – that all people are created equal. – Thomas Perez
The only thing that’s helped me get through some really hard times was just being able to write and express – it’s very cathartic for me. I’m hoping that, by writing and performing for other people, it affects them the same way. – Sharon Van Etten
I’ve only had good experiences with actors. Starring next to them and directing them, for the most part they’re all inspiring, special people. – Steve Guttenberg
I’ve never met a Mormon I didn’t like. They’re really nice people. They’re so Disney. They’re so Rodgers and Hammerstein. – Trey Parker
I think every teenager goes through their angst. People who are like, ‘No, I had a perfect adolescence,’ make me wonder how that is possible. – Shailene Woodley
‘Greek’ is basically a show about sororities and fraternities. It follows Casey Cartwright, played by me, her younger brother, and all the people that are involved in their lives from the different fraternities. – Spencer Grammer
I landed about one a year. Just enough to make me question the gas money and all the driving in rush hour. When you audition for commercials, it’s a lot of driving. What I netted wasn’t exactly matching the hours I was putting in. I figured I’m not a face that makes people want to buy Lysol. Then I auditioned for Progressive. – Stephanie Courtney
I am proud of where I come from and never forget the people I grew up with. Wherever I go, La Castellane is where I want to go back to. – Zinedine Zidane
I think pattern makers are some of the most underrated, undervalued people in fashion. They’re the people who are sometimes the geniuses in designing clothing. – Thom Browne
Maybe it’s because I’m a little naive, but I do like to think that there aren’t really very many truly bad people in the world. I think that everybody has their reasons for what they do, and if you really look through their eyes, you could probably understand them. – Stephenie Meyer
I have made mistakes, but I feel that the people who have done things to me – they should be ashamed. – Sean Quinn
The camera makes everyone a tourist in other people’s reality, and eventually in one’s own. – Susan Sontag
When I’m actually assembling a scene, I assemble it as a silent movie. Even if it’s a dialog scene, I lip read what people are saying. – Walter Murch
My guitar heroes are Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck and people like that – so I’ve tried to make an album of Robert Johnson covers that, well, while not totally faithful for blues purists, is faithful for people like me that grew up with the ’60s and the electric blues-rock versions of Johnson’s songs. – Todd Rundgren
Good listeners have a huge advantage. For one, when they engage in conversation, they make people ‘feel’ heard. They ‘feel’ that someone really understands their wants, needs and desires. And for good reason; a good listener does care to understand. – Simon Sinek
I’ve always been just as interested in making people think as I am in making them feel, and one of the things this scientific process allows me to do is make the audience look differently at dance. – Wayne McGregor
I like the struggles that people have, people who are feeling like they don’t fit into society, because I still sort of feel that way. – Steve Buscemi
Marc by Marc Jacobs was my favorite. The stage was so big, and there were so many people there. I had very bad vision during the show because I forgot to put in my contacts, but I didn’t fall or anything. – Sung Jin Park
I was very camera shy. People like hot girls, so I put my music to hot girls and it just became a trend. The whole ‘enigmatic artist’ thing, I just ran with it. No one could find pictures of me. – The Weeknd
