Throughout the history of our young nation we have seen our military go bravely into battle armed with courage and willing to make the ultimate sacrifice.

Our young people have come to look upon war as a kind of beneficent deity which not only adds to the national honor but uplifts a nation and develops patriotism and courage.

The valor and courage of our young women and men in the armed services are a shining example to all of the world and we owe them and their families our deepest respect.

It is easy enough to praise men for the courage of their convictions. I wish I could teach the sad young of this mealy generation the courage of their confusions.

My message especially to young people is to have courage to think differently courage to invent to travel the unexplored path courage to discover the impossible and to conquer the problems and succeed. These are great qualities that they must work towards. This is my message to the young people.

I'm getting a lot of stick because my character in 'Young Dracula' wanted to be vampire so now that I am a vampire everyone's like 'You finally did it!' But it's cool and I loved doing 'Young Dracula.' That show's finished and I don't know why it ended so it was brilliant to go into 'Being Human ' which is like the adult version of it.

Will Smith is young he's cool and my kids have his CDs.

There is a bit of a movement as far as younger people in country music. That is cool because people are saying things like 'I didn't listen to country music until so-and-so came along.' And I'm like 'Yeah! Now you know why I love it.'

My niece was very much caught up in the vampire craze for young adults and she thought having a vampire boyfriend would be a cool thing. What do you do on a first date? The more I thought about it the more fun I had imagining what you'd serve a vampire for dinner.

For 'The Haunting Hour ' I thought it would be a lot of fun. It was great to play this cool kid role. My episode is called 'The Intruders' and my character is this mean angry teenager because her younger brother was just born and he gets all of the attention. She's always playing tricks on her family and there are some cool twists.

I hear good things about Xbox Live from some of my younger teammates. I think it would be fun to be able to challenge fans all over the world. It would be cool to be able to play some of my friends back home in the States. I'm looking forward to trying it.

Everybody hangs out with everybody which is very strange for a cast this large and this young. We're all cool and down to earth and not caught up in this maniacal business at all... . Everybody really really likes everybody else.

Ten years ago it was really difficult for a young actress to walk onto a set and disagree with the director and having that be OK and have a conversation about it and everyone be cool with it.

But if the choice is a cool president and 8 or 10 percent unemployment in a declining economy and a country that seems to be going in the wrong direction and structural unemployment for young people at 50 percent I'd rather have a dorky president who fixed those problems.

Our mission for younger people is to do our best to make exercise cool hip - the thing to do.

I get letters from kids teenagers and young girls who just want to be Mac. I've had quite a few people actually say that they're going to become a Marine or a JAG lawyer because of me... the character. I think that's pretty cool!

I get really cool gifts and I know this sounds really lame but I think one of the best gifts I've ever received was the Easy Bake Oven when I was younger. When I was little I loved to bake! I want to get one now so I can make weird mini desserts for people.

I was labeled at a young age - Miss Unemotional Miss Cool and that would carry over to my press conferences.

To me what I love about the draft is first you see the young men who are realizing their dreams that they've worked so hard for. That's a pretty cool thing. You saw the emotion from some of these guys the other day. And then the second thing is this total sense of hope and optimism. And I think that's great for everybody.

You know you grow up with the image of John Travolta being super cool - 'Saturday Night Fever ' Brian De Palma handsome young god... he in reality is a very silly man. And I mean that in a good way. He'll walk around the set talking in little weird voices making people laugh.

When I was younger the pressure was just being cool. I never thought of myself as a cool guy. I always thought of myself as more of the goofy guy.

Even though my father was a radio comedian it wasn't cool to say at a young age 'I want to be a comedian.'

Hats off to starting a franchise younger than we all did in 'Twilight' and keeping your cool. The 'Harry Potter' men and women had what a 10-year run?

It's healthy to have older friends. You go 'Look I'm younger than them!' That's always the nice thing if you can be the youngest one in the room at times. Like if you're always the oldest one in the room you'll start to feel like the oldest person in the world. So get older friends because they're cool. Get cool older friends.
