I identify myself as what I am. I'm half Jewish, like Proust. I have no other way to put it.
There are moments when I can't believe I'm as old as I am. But I feel better physically than I did 10 years ago. I don't think, Oh God, I'm missing something.
If you look back on all the teachers that you liked, I am sure you will find they were very entertaining.
I'm not against the intergenerational function of the museum, I am not against its address or celebration of the individual, but I am against its continuous, unreflected-on celebration of material production.
I've been through so much of my own self-search that I'm not as consumed with who I am as I used to be.
Strong I am one of those who never knows the direction of my journey until I have almost arrived.
I know what I am capable of. I read a character, and if I can say to myself, 'I know this woman,' then I take the role.
I am passionate about preserving the rights and opportunities of current and future Americans. That has meant fighting to stop global warming.
I think I am kind of put on this Earth to speak of being between worlds in my films.
You say that your hope is in God, and he will, I am sure, stand by you. But you must not forget that you have been given worldly means to use and employ against human arrogance and wrong; it is necessary to see such things with a broad mind in order to oppose them.
I like boys. I am not foreign; I was born and raised in Hickory County, Mo.
I still find the best way to understand a hospitalized patient whose care I am taking over is not by staring at the computer screen but by going to see the patient; it's only at the bedside that I can figure out what is important.
It is absolutely ludicrous that abortion supporters would accuse a blood relative of Dr. King of hijacking the King legacy. Uncle Martin and my father, Rev. A. D. King were blood brothers. How can I hijack something that belongs to me? I am an heir to the King Family legacy.
Sir, I am a republican; and I desire to see this House observe the principles of that democracy which is ever on the lips of its members, and which, I hope, is in their hearts, as I know and feel it is in mine, and mean it shall be in my conduct.
I feel I have been protected all my life. I am still here, for God's sake, and a lot of my contemporaries have gone. I'm very fortunate. No matter the difficulties - and we all have difficulties - I am definitely one of the fortunate ones. If I have any really good characteristics, one is that I am resilient.
Although I insist that God has always had the power to intervene directly in nature to create new forms, I am willing to be per-suaded that He chose not to do so and instead employed secondary natural causes like random mutation and natural selection.
The years like great black oxen tread the world, and God, the herdsman goads them on behind, and I am broken by their passing feet.
Sometimes I am moody or bubbly, and then at other times, I just want to disconnect. I am an extreme person.
I am trying different styles, and while you can't climb a tree or jump on a crocodile in a dress, it is nice to get dressed up every now and then and kind of walk away from the khaki for a moment.
Reality is a dirty word for me, I know it isn't for most people, but I am not interested. There's too much of it about.
But I can only write what the muse allows me to write. I cannot choose, I can only do what I am given, and I feel pleased when I feel close to concrete poetry - still.
I am a woman with absolutely no sense of nostalgia.
I am very excited to be able to work more with young designers and support them.
I am the candidate who defends the superiority of politics over the administration, the bureaucracy, the economy, and so I think it is politics which must decide.
We have an open society. No one will come and take me away for saying what I am saying. But they don't have to, if they can control how many people hear it. And that's how they do it.
Each of us has a very rich nature and can look at things objectively, from a distance, and at the same time can have something more personal to say about them. I am trying to look at the world, and at myself, from many different points of view. I think many poets have this duality.
I should like to say that I am as proud of my Chinese heritage and background as I am devoted to modern science, a part of human civilization of Western origin, to which I have dedicated and I shall continue to dedicate my work.
I am invariably late for appointments - sometimes as much as two hours. I've tried to change my ways but the things that make me late are too strong, and too pleasing.
Contrary to the claims of some of my critics and some of the editorial pages, I am an ardent believer in the free market.
Believing: it means believing in our own lies. And I can say that I am grateful that I got this lesson very early.
I'm afraid I talk a lot, too much, perhaps. I should have been a lawyer or a college professor or a windy politician, though I'm glad I am not any of these.
If you see me as just the princess then you misunderstand who I am and what I have been through.
I am an Apple guy. I got the iPhone 4 the day it came out. I have a MacBook.
We all perform our lives in a way. And the actor is a perfect metaphor to get at that theme of 'how do we find our authentic selves?' And that we all - whether we're actors or not - perform ourselves. As a way of searching. As a way of fumbling around and trying to say, is this my voice? Is this who I am?
I once wanted to be a personage. Now I am comfortable being a person.
We need to create shareholder value. That is why I am here. That is what I need to do.
