The matter of international relations is very subtle and exquisite.

If Russia rises, it means that the USA falls down.

We'll surely stop the work of all western Christian and eastern religions, and also Islam.

And, for instance, Baptists, Adventists, Lutherans, Pentecostals - let them exist on line with others.

Americans try to talk about positive family values, although the actual state of things is disastrous.

The civilized world needs to think about a decision when single politicians are not allowed to stay in power.

I didn't sign any contracts, and I didn't see any oil.

There is no problem with the opening of new houses of prayer for Lutherans and Pentecostals.

I mean, in general, the danger is from Oriental faiths and Islam.

We'll limit in all ways the work of religious faiths which are foreign to us.

Europe has united, China is growing speedily and Russia possesses immense power in terms of fuel resources. The US administration cannot do anything about it.

The USA experiences the crisis of ideological and moral values.

I'm against the capturing of Eastern Orthodox temples.

We don't need this religious cosmopolitanism. It's no good.

The only thing I oppose is persecuting of Eastern Orthodox priests and temples.

I believe in full freedom for Christians of all denominations.

Russia is an Eastern Orthodox country.

A mother-in-law is better than a single and childless political persona, though.

The true reason of Ms. Rice's attack against Russia is very simple. Condoleezza Rice is a very cruel, offended woman who lacks men's attention.

We must force the government to stop the bird migration. We must shoot all birds, field all our men and troops... and force migratory birds to stay where they are.

Military police is very timely for our army.

Let Catholics build their own churches and works.

I've never signed any contract and never received a cent from Iraq.

Here in Russia,, in many cities, people are irritated by Caucasian intrusion. Caucasians come from foreign countries; they are ubiquitous: in markets, shops, hotels, restaurants. They misbehave, and in this sense we have feelings similar to those that the Germans have toward the Turks and the French toward Algerians.

The West will have to choose: either to come to terms with Russians, or to receive a retaliatory blow. This retaliatory blow will not be by means of war. We will resort to the same weapon: nationalism.

There is no such thing as Russian fascism. You won't find a single Russian who considers Russians to be a superior race and who advocate expulsion of aliens.

Some years ago, I was invited to speak in Houston, Texas. They said I was a founder of 'postmodern theatre'. So I said to my office, 'This is ridiculous for me to go and speak about postmodern theatre when I don't know what it means, but... they're paying me a lot of money, so I'll go.'

Big companies, which spend tens of billions of dollars annually on 'call centers' to take orders and provide customer support, increasingly rely on speech recognition not just to handle requests for information but to process customer orders.

I define poetry as celebration and confrontation. When we witness something, are we responsible for what we witness? That's an on-going existential question. Perhaps we are and perhaps there's a kind of daring, a kind of necessary energetic questioning. Because often I say it's not what we know, it's what we can risk discovering.

I had a ball doing Harry Potter.

It's a deeper connection when you meet someone online and talk to them every day.

There is no scandal like rags, nor any crime so shameful as poverty.

I have a lot of friends, but my biggest fear is loneliness. I miss my family in Mumbai, and my biggest nightmare every day is to go back home alone.

There will be no hard border from Dundalk to Derry in the context of it being a European border, and by that I mean customs posts every mile along the road.

I am not getting any younger and am taking a new approach to life.

High school was interesting. For the most part, I quite enjoyed it. But everyone is trying to find their footing, and school can be a tough environment. Kids can be cruel to each other. It's quite unforgiving at times.

That's what we do in this country. That's the american dream. That's freedom, and I'll take it any day over the supervision and sanctimony of the central planners.

When I retired in 2002 I had retired to stay home with my family and didn't necessarily think my playing days were over.

One of the few things in dance to match the Royal Ballet's curtain calls is the Royal Ballet's dancing.

It is better to begin a great work than to finish a small one.

My first movie I saw when I was a kid was 'The Jungle Book.' I was 5 years old, and I saw it in a movie theater. Seeing that movie really lit the fuse and ignited my passion for animation.

The superiority of some men is merely local. They are great because their associates are little.

Independent film is for actors that love to act.

Wilderness is a necessity there must be places for human beings to satisfy their souls.

Motherhood has been an exercise in guilt.

It is an axiom, enforced by all the experience of the ages, that they who rule industrially will rule politically.

Personally and politically, I'm extremely conservative for who I am, but I'm also very careful in my tone. I don't believe just because you're a conservative that you're angry. I can be plenty frustrated and not have to constantly portray myself as upset and angry at the world.

He has a future and I have a past, so we should be all right.
