I have just returned from Boston. It is the only thing to do if you find yourself up there.

I've returned to being an amateur without any ties or strings attached which gives me a freedom I never had before.

In '71 or '72 I returned to New Orleans and stayed there. I started cooking Louisiana food. Of all the things I had cooked it was the best-and it was my heritage.

Food prices are often kept artificially high. The result is that the Millennium Development Goals set out by the United Nations at the start of the new millennium are not being reached. Fine words have not yet been turned into deeds.

You know Stephen says in the movies no one ever goes to the bathroom. They shave they brush their teeth. He goes right at this sort of funny taboo we have about the bathroom and he turned it into this nightmare you know your worst fear of what's in there.

Fear is something to be moved through not something to be turned from.

I love singing - singing is what I'm famous for doing. Now it's turned into things I am famous for doing - like having rows with my mum or about my boyfriend so it does get irritating.

Berry Gordy turned his house into a studio and discovered over 30 acts in the city. And we're famous all over the world.

I've been through a lot of things in my personal and family life. That turned me into a fighter. I always strive to be the best I possibly can.

I'm a girl from a good family who was very well brought up. One day I turned my back on it all and became a bohemian.

I grew up in a Ukrainian Catholic-turned-Christian household and that is my family's faith.

Faith is an act of a finite being who is grasped by and turned to the infinite.

After that he turned to the question of invading England. Hitler said that during the previous year he could not afford to risk a possible failure apart from that he had not wished to provoke the British as he hoped to arrange peace talks.

Even when you have doubts take that step. Take chances. Mistakes are never a failure - they can be turned into wisdom.

I had the closest thing I have ever had to an out-of-body experience lying in bed one morning. I turned on the 'Today' programme and item four on the news was: 'The shadow chancellor has ruled himself out of the leadership.' I lay there thinking that's interesting then I realised it was me.

All men who have turned out worth anything have had the chief hand in their own education.

When I first left Iran at the age of 13 Iran had become such a shining star - it was the point to which all my desires and dreams returned.

The work of an advertising agency is warmly and immediately human. It deals with human needs wants dreams and hopes. Its 'product' cannot be turned out on an assembly line.

My life turned out to be beyond my greatest dreams.

I was in college and very disappointed. I majored in commercial art and interior design for three or four years. At that time it seemed the thing I really wanted to do production design just wasn't available in the U.K. so I turned to music.

Miller didn't write Death of a Salesman. He released it. It was there inside him waiting to be turned loose. That's the measure of its merit.

My wife and I have been together since 1986. I graduated in '86 and she graduated in '88. We began dating when she was 17. Actually she turned 18 when we started kissing and stuff.

Recently I was in Bernalda my dad's ancestral home town in Italy. He has just refurbished a palazzo and turned it into a hotel so we had my sister's wedding there. It was beautiful.

I was a sickly baby and after two sets of adoptive parents took me home they returned me to the orphanage because of a serious respiratory infection. But as they say the third time's a charm because my mom and dad adopted me and took me into their home where I was raised in a family full of love.
