Bluegrass is really a big part of my background.

If you're gonna sing, sing loud.

It's the same old story you've heard a thousand times. Somebody's trust gets broken. Somebody's left behind.

Its a great day to be alive. I know the suns still shining when I close my eyes.

For us to think we can enjoy, understand and practice the Christian religion with just Matthew to Revelation is foolishness.

I think I've played a lesbian about five times. The first one was with Helen Baxendale in a drama called 'The Investigator,' about the conditions lesbians had to live under in the army in Britain, which was based on a true story.

Aledo will always be home to me because I spent the first 27 years of my life there - it's such a special place - and because of the experiences I had there, I've become the person I am today.

I came from a background of directing behind-the-scenes documentaries.

A Christian is a man who feels repentance on Sunday for what he did on Saturday and is going to do on Monday.

You all know that each title in the Chronicles has a chess theme; that's partly because of the overall design of the Chronicles themselves - the game of chess as an analogue of the game of life.

I'd sleep under a Vermeer.

But I think it's very key that there's a plan for Haiti. And we have to begin to - as progressives and people who are concerned about Haiti and have been concerned about Haiti, we have to begin to build some sort of consensus, a movement around the Haiti that the Haitians envision.

In my view the European culture carries a very heavy responsibility for the creation of Israel... it is a product of both British and Stalin's anti- Semitism, but the British never faced their own complicity in its construction.

Activists from the Middle East to Asia to the former Soviet states have all been telling me that they suffer from increasingly sophisticated cyber-attacks.

I did B com but realised that it was not my cup of tea. I was always fascinated by animation, and after I completed my course, I wanted to go abroad and pursue it. I used to sketch a lot and was rather serious about it. But all this was until I joined films.

Beach balls at festivals are the work of the devil.

Perpetual Adoration, Eucharistic Adoration offers to our people the opportunity to join those in religious life to pray for the salvation of the world, souls everywhere and peace on earth. We cannot underestimate the power of prayer and the difference it will make in our world.

I get to travel, see the world, meet people and be independent. I feel blessed.

No matter how busy you are you must take time to make the other person feel important.

I'm not sure. But that bless-his/her-heart kind of melancholic humor is among my favorite things in the world.
