We can't just have mainstream behavior on television in a free society, we have to make sure we see the whole panorama of human behavior.

All of us, whether or not we're celebrities, every one ought to spend part of their life making someone else's life better.

We can't just have mainstream behavior on television in a free society, we have to make sure we see the whole panorama of human behavior.

It's just a show. It's not the end of Western Civilization. It's chewing gum.

My guess is more reporters probably vote Democrat than Republican - just because I think reporters are smart.

With a face like mine, I do better in print.

Somebody once said I had a face for radio and a voice for newspapers.

To go from politics to news, at least the subject matter is the same, even if the view is different.

I don't live in Hollywood. I don't have celebrities as friends. I like them, but I don't pal around with them. I just live in the Midwest, a real normal world.

I don't want to be a celebrity.

I knew early on that I would do politics, but I would never make a living at it. I would do something else.

I play a crazy talk-show host, but that's not me. It's like an actor playing a role.

I treat politics kind of like my religion. It's something I believe in, but I don't want to have to make a living at it, because if you make a living at it, you somehow become dishonest.

I watch sports and cable news. I'm a political junkie, so that's my interest.

I'm a happy guy, but if I'm in a rare dark mood, I won't go out because I don't want to be horrible to people.

I'm always playing a role, whether it's the role of the mayor, the role of a news anchor, or a role of a crazy talk-show host. But there was a specific function. 'On Dancing With The Stars', I had nothing to do but be me, schlepping around the floor. And when I host 'America's Got Talent', that's really me just talking to regular folks.

I'm liberal, but I watch the three majors. Obviously I watch MSNBC, also CNN and Fox, which is what I would call ridiculously to the right.

No one would have picked me out in high school and said, 'This guy is going to be in show business.' I don't have any of the talents you would normally associate with show business.

There's something about the openness of the American people. Yes, we have our faults, but deep down, there's a goodness. America doesn't want to take over the world; in many ways, we don't want to be bothered by the rest of the world.

We are all born as empty vessels which can be shaped by moral values.

When I was first on 'Dancing With The Stars', people were really shocked and surprised.

Its just a show. Its not the end of Western Civilization. Its chewing gum.

If you cant be committed to another person at least be committed to the concept of character and dont cheat.

All people have feelings, they are not there to be used. If you're not longer interested in someone, they have the right to be informed before you go and cheat or go looking elsewhere.

Spry is not a look, spry is behavior.

Behavior is the mirror in which everyone shows their image.

The civilizing process has increased the distance between behavior and the impulse life of the animal body.

Beauty set up distance between other people and me. It warped their behavior.

I try as best I can to enter the realm of nuances of human behavior.

I'm always looking, as an actor, for activities. I think it's far more interesting to watch what people do than what they say. You always want to watch behavior, because the dialogue as written by our illustrious leaders is great. Eminently playable.

The mind cannot support moral chaos for long. Men are under as strong a compulsion to invent an ethical setting for their behavior as spiders are to weave themselves webs.

No matter how calmly you try to referee, parenting will eventually produce bizarre behavior, and I'm not talking about the kids. Their behavior is always normal.

You can't legislate or litigate good, healthy behavior but we must be willing to educate people at an early age about the affects of unhealthy living.

The orbs create feedback loops that can influence either personal of employee behavior.

Many working mothers feel guilty about not being at home. And when they are there, they wish it could be perfect. This pressure to make every minute happy puts working parents in a bind when it comes to setting limits and modifying behavior.

You were saying that once when visiting Yale, you were struck that unlike Pound, Williams's thinking was volatile, I mean, did not stay locked into a pattern of concepts that then defined his subsequent necessary behavior, whereas Pound did.

We must consider the distinctive characters and the general nature of plants from the point of view of their morphology , their behavior under external conditions, their mode of generation, and the whole course of their life.

I have always had school sickness, as others have seasickness. I cried when it was time to go back to school long after I was old enough to be ashamed of such behavior.

The quality of moral behavior varies in inverse ratio to the number of human beings involved.

I always say centered food equals centered behavior.

Perhaps it is because cats do not live by human patterns, do not fit themselves into prescribed behavior, that they are so united to creative people.

I like analyzing human behavior. It's complex. That's what keeps me going.

It's better to hang out with people better than you. Pick out associates whose behavior is better than yours and you'll drift in that direction.

But you can't show some far off idyllic conception of behavior if you want the kids to come and see the picture. You've got to show what it's really like, and try to reach them on their own grounds.

We can only undo the election if the behavior meets the constitutional standard of subverting and threatening our system of government.

If you start using a medication in a person with autism, you should see an obvious improvement in behavior in a short period of time. If you do not see an obvious improvement, they probably should not be taking the stuff. It is that simple.

The experience and behavior that gets labeled schizophrenic is a special strategy that a person invents in order to live in an unlivable situation.

If Baltimore's view, that scientists who do not take the words of authorities are far removed from the ordinary behavior of scientists, prevails in the scientific community, then something fundamental, very serious, and very disturbing is happening to the scientific community.

Good behavior is the last refuge of mediocrity.
