If you are the greatest, why would you go around talking about it?
Written by Joe Rogan
For many of us, eating has surprisingly little to do with hunger. We eat out of boredom, for entertainment, to comfort or reward ourselves. Try to be aware of why you're eating, and ask yourself if you're really hungry - before you eat and then again along the way.
Written by Michael Pollan
Islam is not a religion of peace. Islam is a religion of war, and most Muslims don't understand the true nature of Islam.
Written by Mosab Hassan Yousef
I was just born involved in politics. My family is conservative Mormon, and so I was born - although the Mormon faith is not inherently political, their faith requires some political stands, and those are ones that I happen to disagree with vehemently - so I was just political from a very early age.
Written by Kyrsten Sinema
I've always made a clear distinction between making a life and making a living.

Written by Ajit Pai
It wasn't until I found my tribe of artists - people who were outspoken and not afraid to say what they thought, whether in a song or a dance or a piece of classical music - that I found a refuge.
Written by Cote de Pablo
'The Fast' is tough; it's not easy. It represents too much to too many people. But that's what also makes it fun.
Written by Paul Walker
The distribution of plants in a given locality is not more marked and defined than that of the birds. Show a botanist a landscape, and he will tell you where to look for the lady's-slipper, the columbine, or the harebell. On the same principles, the ornithologist will direct you where to look for the greenlets, the wood-sparrow, or the chewink.
Written by John Burroughs
When I was younger, the idea of the bad boy was appealing, but then I grew up and realized that stable people are more fulfilling. Bad boys need more time to themselves. I want to be in a relationship with someone who knows how to take care of himself and is therefore able to take care of me. That way, we can put each other first.
Written by Jessica Parker Kennedy
'Can't Stop the Music' has become a cult film. It's kind of shocking to me. People come up to me all the time and say, 'I just saw it!'
Written by Caitlyn Jenner
As a matter of a fact, though, I've never actually played a video game where I've played as myself.
Written by Ronnie Lott
When I was a child, I was referred to as the Danny Kaye of the family, because I was always impersonating and mimicking people. I was a song and dance man.
Written by Jason Mantzoukas
I'm not looking to stick my nose into an area where I'm not needed.
Written by Diane Nelson
I also write poems, so that is something that I really enjoy.
Written by Billy Sherwood
Eventually, when I got the 'Meadowland' script, I saw something in it that made me think I could make something special out of it, something that could work with my style. Emotionally, I connected to it. I thought, 'If I feel this way just imagining it, maybe we can make that happen on screen and make people feel something when they watch it.'
Written by Reed Morano
To be brutally frank, I mean Christianity is dying in Europe, and Islam is on the rise.
Written by Stephen Bannon
I think it's been hard for people to understand how Islam can be a good religion, and yet the Islamists are evil. Those of us who have had experience with Islam understand this, just as we understand the difference between snake handlers and people going to church on Sunday morning.
Written by P. J. O'Rourke
I think we need to communicate more effectively how we treat you with respect and dignity as a customer.
Written by Oscar Munoz
I remember debating the finer points of flaky pastry with my chicken-pot-pie-obsessed American dad. I remember the divine mix of Thai food, TV dinners, and hearty, homemade goodness that have shaped this palate of mine to this day. I remember all this, but I still Google my husband's birthday. Thank God he's famous.
Written by Chrissy Teigen
I'm not trying to race the whole men's tour; I just want to race one time. If you know me, which most people on the World Cup do, they know that this is a legitimate goal of mine and not a publicity stunt.
Written by Lindsey Vonn
I got a journalism degree. I started doing journalism - I interned at 'Cosmopolitan' magazine in the 1970s, which probably wasn't the best place for me, and I spent six or nine months freelancing. Anyway, I wasn't that good at it.
Written by Anne M. Mulcahy
I don't set goals. Like, that's what I want to be doing however many years from now. I do what I love to do at the moment. If I wake up tomorrow and decide I want to dance, that's what I'd do. Or design clothes.
Written by Ayumi Hamasaki
It is not just family that must transmit values, but school also.
Written by Najat Vallaud-Belkacem
It's appropriate that the word 'ignorance' is an extension of the word 'ignore.' We ignore so much and so we become ignore-ant.
Written by David Icke
I would say our sound is soul pop.
Written by Taryn Manning
I think the model of The CW Network is really built on the fan platform more than anything else. The success or longevity of a series has less to do with the number it's pulling and more to do with the social footprint... There is a lot about the fan support on a strictly business level that's really powerful for that network.
