I certainly wanted to maintain some sense of mystery about Picard and that's why we never allowed certain situations to fully evolve like the relationship between Picard and Beverly Crusher.
I did learn one great lesson from a past relationship and that was to never talk about relationships in print again because I'd rather live my private life than read about it.
I'd think 'In a relationship we should never have his kind of fight.' Then instead of figuring out how to make it work I looked for a way to get out of it. The truth is you shouldn't be married if your that kind of person.
The transatlantic relationship is vital for both our countries: France will remain a reliable ally of the United States. Nevertheless ally does not mean aligned.
We should never denigrate any other culture but rather help people to understand the relationship between their own culture and the dominant culture. When you understand another culture or language it does not mean that you have to lose your own culture.
There's a lot about the character. It doesn't always happen but there are some characters you really create a relationship with almost as if they were your friend. And you never get into their heads again or think like them.
I like to write with people I have a relationship with otherwise it's kind of scary and you hold back because you don't want to pour your guts out to someone you never met.
Although we were never pals and occasionally butted heads my relationship with Clinton and his wife Hillary made me a better journalist.
Films have never shown the kind of relationship that can exist between two women.
When you think about it we actors are kind of prostitutes. We get paid to feign attraction and love. Other people are paying to watch us kissing someone touching someone doing things people in a normal monogamous relationship would never do with anyone who's not their partner.

A relationship to me is never about the romance.
The formula for achieving a successful relationship is simple: you should treat all disasters as if they were trivialities but never treat a triviality as if it were a disaster.
Never assume that the guy understands that you and he have a relationship.
One thing you can say about nuclear power: the people who believe it is the silver bullet for America's energy problems never give up.
It was R.E.M. who showed other Eighties bands how to get away with ignoring the rules - they lived in some weird town nobody never heard of they didn't play power chords they probably couldn't even spell 'spandex.' All they had was songs.
Information can bring you choices and choices bring power - educate yourself about your options and choices. Never remain in the dark of ignorance.

Never underestimate the power of the State to act out its own massive fantasies.
The power of visibility can never be underestimated.

The House of Lords an illusion to which I have never been able to subscribe - responsibility without power the prerogative of the eunuch throughout the ages.
I think a responsibility comes with notoriety but I never think of it as power. It's more like something you hold like grains of sand. If you keep your hand closed you can have it and possess it but if you open your fingers in any way you can lose it just as quickly.
