My reputation is too important to put it aside for purposes of some friendship. We have a job to do.

I'm not an example for how people should live their lives. Never in my life would I ever set out to be an example for people on how to live their lives. If you need an example for how to live, then you just shouldn't have been born. Straight up.

I'm against an income tax because all the rich people hire lawyers and accountants to be sure that they don't pay income tax.

I don't have famous neighbours and if I did, I'd avoid them. I don't live the jet-set.

Competition among insurers would bring down the cost of health care insurance, just as it brings down the cost of car or homeowners insurance.

We are not really privy to all that crazy stuff that goes on in the show. I go to work, eat, and talk about food. The wild things happen when we aren't around. I expected Top Chef to last three or four seasons and we are now shooting season ten.

Now it is quite clear to me that there are no solid spheres in the heavens, and those that have been devised by the authors to save the appearances, exist only in the imagination.

By the age of 9 or 10, I knew that I had to cut my own cloth and make my own way.

Just as there is no loss of basic energy in the universe, so no thought or action is without its effects, present or ultimate, seen or unseen, felt or unfelt.

Kindness and intelligence don't always deliver us from the pitfalls and traps: there are always failures of love, of will, of imagination. There is no way to take the danger out of human relationships.

Peace, if it ever exists, will not be based on the fear of war but on the love of peace.

I've decided to run for the U.S. Senate because I believe Wisconsin families need a senator who will work hard to deliver results for the middle class - a leader with the courage to do what's right, no matter how tough the odds or how powerful the special interests we have to fight.

The only way in which one human being can properly attempt to influence another is by encouraging him to think for himself, instead of endeavoring to instill ready-made opinions into his head.

As the presence of those we love is as a double life, so absence, in its anxious longing and sense of vacancy, is as a foretaste of death.

I think most Americans understand that we went through a period in which American leadership was judged quite critically internationally.

For me, I am still very happy to be able to do stage design as it's an opportunity to express the extreme.

My darkness had been filled with the light of intelligence, and behold, the day-lit world was stumbling and groping in social blindness.

When there is time to think about cricket, I think but when there is time to be with family, I try to do justice to that aspect of my life as well.
