It's interesting because people assume that because I'm famous I know all famous people.

I'm more interested in being good than being famous.

We are not interested in cloning the Michael Jordans and the Michael Jacksons of this world. The rich and the famous don't participate in this.

I think the driving thing was curiosity about the universe. That fascinated me. I didn't think anything about being famous or anything like that I was just interested in the concepts involved.

The fame thing is interesting because I never wanted to be famous and I never dreamt I would be famous.

I was never very interested in boys - and there were plenty of them - vying with one another to see how many famous women they would get into the hay.

My favorite thing about being famous... it's not really as big of a deal as everybody says it is. Being on the road is tough doing interviews and all the stuff. It's still pretty tough.

People hate me because I am a multifaceted talented wealthy internationally famous genius.

More than any other setting - more than battlefields or boardrooms or a spaceship headed for intergalactic travel - I'll put my money on the family to provide an endless source of comedy tragedy and intrigue.

My dream maybe because of my family of course was to be a painter. I chose in one moment the direction of textiles from textiles I went to fashion.

I went through a period of great rebellion within my family when I was about 9 or 10. I was mad I had no focus had no real interest in anything and so I started to do things that were just rebellious and stupid.

The warrior may fight for gold or for an immediate gain or for something to take home for the winter to feed the family. The soldier is part of a more complex society. He's fighting for a group ethic of some sort.

The clan is nothing more than a larger family with its patriarchal chief as the natural head and the union of several clans by intermarriage and voluntary connection constitutes the tribe.

If I were to retire I would keep my family's interest in the company the same and say Don't sell.

A person needs at intervals to separate himself from family and companions and go to new places. He must go without his familiars in order to be open to influences to change.

But in my heart of hearts this is the kind of thing... this is what everyone is struggling with in their lives - relationships and family. To me it's always an interesting area to mine. I'm drawn to it.

Because I didn't have brothers I was always interested in the kids down the street that had four brothers in their family so I became one of them - but it was not my family.

The functions of the family in a highly differentiated society are not to be interpreted as functions directly on behalf of the society but on behalf of personality.

The countries who do the best in international comparisons whether it's Finland or Japan Denmark or Singapore do well because they have professional teachers who are respected and they also have family and community which support learning.

I grew up in a family where the internalized understanding was that the kids were going to grow up into a better world. I worry because I don't think my kids are going to have that. The world is very scary. The world would be scary without the choices the current administration made but they just exacerbated it. And it ticks me off. I want my kids to have a good life.

We do not always appreciate the role the Queen has played in one of the most significant changes in the past 60 years: the transformation of Britain into a multi-ethnic multi-faith society. No one does interfaith better than the Royal family and it starts with the Queen herself.

I have one friend that I've had since I was born and she's from Coatzacoalcos. She's not really impressed or interested in the actor's life. My family isn't really either.

Interesting things come your way but as you get older your lifestyle changes. I don't want to travel I don't want to be in a hotel room away from my family.

When you look at a family if you have a family that never interacts with each other never has strong conversation with each other never has disagreements nine times out of ten you have a very cold family and they're not going to be at the end they're not going to be close.
