Do not go gentle into that good night but rage, rage against the dying of the light.
To say I am not mentally tired in ways and exhausted in ways would be a lie.
When I take a knee, I am facing the flag with my full body, staring straight into the heart of our country's ultimate symbol of freedom - because I believe it is my responsibility, just as it is yours, to ensure that freedom is afforded to everyone in this country.
Maybe you are homophobic a little bit, but then you see me, and you've always loved me, and you love the way I play, and your kids love me. And then you're like, 'Oh, that's OK. It's fine.' Once it gets a little bit more personal, it helps break down those barriers.
Putting yourself out there is hard, but it's so worth it. I don't think anyone who has ever spoken out, or stood up or had a brave moment, has regretted it. It's empowering and confidence-building and inspiring. Not only to other people, but to yourself.
I feel like it's actually everybody's responsibility to use whatever platform they have to do good in the world, basically, and to try to make our society better, whether you're an accountant or an activist or an athlete or whatever it is. I think it's everybody's responsibility.
Winning the World Cup was very special because it meant so much to so many. One thing about our country that is constant is cricket. The smile it brought to people's faces was the thing I shall always remember. It reminded me, reminded all of us, of our importance to the lives of the Indian people less lucky than we are.
I felt so out of place at the Miss India pageant. I had just come back from America, and I was told I needed to lose my American accent and learn the Queen's English, so I had to enunciate my vowels and speak well and eloquently. Giving up a New York accent is pretty hard.
I am a very private person. No one ever knows anything about me as I don't think it is necessary. I tell people as much as I want them to know about me.
I never thought I am a stylish. For me, style is always a representation of what you want to wear but doing it in a unique way and expressing yourself. Every girl loves to be stylish.
I wasn't the prettiest girl in the room, but I learned to carry myself with confidence - that's how you make the best impression on people.
Financial independence is paramount. My mom always says that when a woman is financially independent, she has the ability to live life on her own terms. I think that was the soundest advice that I ever got. No matter where you go in life or who you get married to, you have to be financially independent - whether you use it or not.
Painting is the frozen evidence of a performance.
In the 7th grade, I made a 20-foot long mural of the Lewis and Clark Trail while we were studying that in history because I knew I wasn't going to be able to spit back the names and the dates and all that stuff on a test.
I'm very interested in how we read things, especially the link between seeing two-dimensional and three-dimensional images, because of how I read.
Never let anyone define what you are capable of by using parameters that don't apply to you.
Sculpture occupies real space like we do... you walk around it and relate to it almost as another person or another object.
I am very instinctive when it comes to a script.
People have started recognising me. I can't move around as freely as I used to.
I think less is more. Sephora has these nude themes, which is like 'no make-up' make-up.
I feel that modelling has groomed my personality and made me a confident person, but even today, when I go on the ramp, I get nervous. I am more comfortable being in front of the camera than walking on the ramp.
We are all somewhere or the other a little grey, not black and white. We have our imperfections.
I ask you to please choose love every single day.
That's the amazing thing about music: there's a song for every emotion. Can you imagine a world with no music? It would suck.
A real girl isn't perfect and a perfect girl isn't real.
Maybe the bike is more dangerous, but the passion for the car for me is second to the bike.
The way I drive, the way I handle a car, is an expression of my inner feelings.
You can knock me down, but I get up twice as strong.
To be a great motorbike racer, the most important thing is passion for the bike.
I am a motorbike fanatic - always have been. It's actually what I wanted to do before I got into motor racing.
We've had three big ideas at Amazon that we've stuck with for 18 years, and they're the reason we're successful: Put the customer first. Invent. And be patient.
Basically, Amazon is the industry trend setter. They're the Michael Jackson of shipping: They're the best at what they do, everyone tries to imitate them, and nobody who learns a third thing about them is happy that they did.

I like taking risks. I like trying new things, whether it be style or restaurants or whatever.
Americans love our freedom and no one will ever take it away from us.
Donald Trump - 4th of July 2019 - Salute to America
Teach us, O Lord, the disciplines of patience, for to wait is often harder than to work.
May we think of freedom, not as the right to do as we please, but as the opportunity to do what is right.
When we long for life without difficulties, remind us that oaks grow strong in contrary winds and diamonds are made under pressure.
Small deeds done are better than great deeds planned.
God will not permit any troubles to come upon us, unless He has a specific plan by which great blessing can come out of the difficulty.
Women need to be empowered through the strongest tool - education.
I try to give my best to everything I do. I don't think of housework as beneath my dignity; that's just the way I was brought up.
In Denver, I was a homebody, and that's a life I'd chosen with great happiness. I wanted that break from the arc lights and focus on building a lovely home, have some fun, look after my kids and do things that I had missed out on while pursuing my dream.
Mumbai is like Manhattan. There's a certain pace, a social life and the thrill of a professional life.
