I see a ton of theatre whenever I’m not working to stay inspired. I love feeling like I’m a part of the theatre community and following the work of actors and writers I admire. I’m a big reader, too. – Sarah Steele
When I was younger, I never wanted to rehearse because I thought that someone would figure out I don’t know what I’m doing. Now I like to really spend the time and figure it out, and rehearsal is to try something that doesn’t work. – William Fichtner
Even today I work with Niall O’Brien, who is far more technically astute than I am, but I still have the clearest idea of every detail I want in my photograph. – Sam Taylor-Johnson
Halloween is one of my favorite days of the year. I have a strict rule: I don’t work on Halloween and I won’t travel on Halloween. Not for any reason. – Simon Sinek
Anyone who supports your work, I like having the opportunity to thank them for that, and I think also Twitter provides an opportunity for people in the public eye to give a faithful account of who they are. – Will Poulter
I just started taking Mandarin classes. I love the idea of globalization: of being able to work in different countries. – Sandrine Holt
I had imagined doing nuclear physics and cosmic ray work in greater style in peace time. To do modern physics in a small way is of no use of all. – Werner Heisenberg
The surest way to return to the people’s business is to listen to the people themselves: We need to drop this whole scheme of federally controlled health care, start over, and work together on real reforms at the state level that will contain costs and won’t leave America trillions of dollars deeper in debt. – Scott Brown

In preindustrial times, the idea of creating something was more related to your personality. Personality was something that you constructed; it’s something you had to actively develop and work on. Now personality is something that you have. – Tino Sehgal
A man who becomes conscious of the responsibility he bears toward a human being who affectionately waits for him, or to an unfinished work, will never be able to throw away his life. He knows the ‘why’ for his existence, and will be able to bear almost any ‘how.’ – Viktor E. Frankl
There isn’t any great mystery about me. What I do is glamorous and has an awful lot of white-hot attention placed on it. But the actual work requires the same discipline and passion as any job you love doing, be it as a very good pipe fitter or a highly creative artist. – Tom Hanks
We’re building a movement. It’s undeniably a work in progress, but there’s a fundamental desire to see capitalism to do something different. – Thomas Perez

I used to work at a movie theater and sold hams at Honey Baked Ham during the holidays. I sold a ton of hams, and they offered me a regular job there, which I turned down. I feel like anything you do, just do it 100% because then that work ethic will bleed through when it’s time to work on your dreams. – Tika Sumpter
I see songs not as a commodity used up when the album goes off the charts, which is often the case with pop songs. I see them as a body of work. Life should be breathed into them. – Sting
I’m getting fat… because my size, I put on 20 or 30 pounds, it doesn’t show very much… I’m thinking about going back to work out in a very short time. – Yao Ming
