I get in trouble when I say things like 'I'm attracted to violence.' I was a pretty angry kid and I got into military history largely as a way to vent my own anger. As I got older it narrowed down to a more specific focus on individual violence. I'm just trying to understand where it came from.

I understand Tea Partyers' anger with the system but they are in way over their heads and often racially motivated and I can't be part of that.

Men are fair and they have learned not to personalize anger - they can disagree with you and argue to the bone but afterward they still consider you a nice person with whom the underlying human relationship need not be altered.

Whether one agrees or disagrees with the tactics of the Occupy Wall Street movement it's easy to understand the inspiration for its anger as well as its impatience.

On banks I make no apology for attacking spivs and gamblers who did more harm to the British economy than Bob Crow could achieve in his wildest Trotskyite fantasies while paying themselves outrageous bonuses underwritten by the taxpayer. There is much public anger about banks and it is well deserved.

I think that Scottish people like Canadians are often misunderstood and what I like about my Scottish friends and relatives is how quickly it can go from love to anger. It's a great dynamic.

The fear really hits you. That's what you feel first. And then it's the anger and frustration. Part of the problem is how little we understand about the ultimate betrayal of the body when it rebels against itself.

Anger and intolerance are the enemies of correct understanding.

They played Boston. They played at the Boston Tea Party and through an amazing chain of events I got to hang out with them backstage even though I was underage.

There are amazing schools and amazing educators that are doing a wonderful job. And then there are a lot of educators that are not prepared to deal with inclusive education. They haven't been trained. It's really quite lovely and easy when you understand how to do it.

It's amazing when you're playing to a crowd who barely understands English but they're singing parts of your song back to you.

Most New Yorkers want to look amazing and they want you to understand that they look amazing but they also want you to stop staring at them.

My family has been amazing and they understand how blessed I am. They've been able to keep my sense of humor.

It was at Bell Labs that I first made direct contact with real semiconductor experts and thus began to fully understand what amazing materials they were and what they could do.

I don't think immortality is necessarily the key to understanding the world. You have to be careful with what you think you're achieving. I'm all for science discovering amazing and fantastic things about our world but I think the motivations behind it are slightly askew.

I've never stabbed hurt killed stolen anything but I went to jail for a year. What is that? My pastor said to me the fact that I'm not living under a bridge as a crazy woman talking to myself is amazing.

Science is one of a handful of things that defines us as a very special species. It is amazing how far we have been able to get and how accurate our predictions are. I think understanding how the universe was born is very important. It really gives us a perspective on many things.

Choreography is amazing. I'm still a dancer yet I transitioned into choreography then as a Creative Director. All of these creative elements are brought out of being a dancer. Directing is something that comes out of understanding movement and choreography. Directing movement is directing a dance piece.

If you love dance and you have the gift of teaching teaching is super amazing and important because my teachers planted that seed in me. As a teacher you understand the difference or the definition of a Baryshnikov or a Gregory Hines so teaching is really important and very necessary.

I'd do pretty much anything to get back on stage. I'd like to develop a new musical. I nearly had a heart attack when I heard that they're developing John Waters' Cry-Baby because that is so amazing and super and wonderful and I wish that I could be involved. But it's not the right time and I understand that. But I hear things like that and I get that little tingle in my stomach.

Well when you're the youngest of five parents kind of lose interest more and more through the children. I think my eldest brother was under loads of pressure to do something amazing with his life but by the time I came around they were like 'Well let's hope he doesn't kill a guy.'

I'd said to my sweetheart a couple of days before that the SAG and Spirit Award nomination was amazing and I had no attachment to the Academy Award. I knew I was an underdog so I just decided to sleep through the announcement.

The right really dominates radio and it's amazing how much energy the right spends telling us that the press is slanted to the left when it really isn't. They want to shut other people up. They really don't understand the First Amendment.
