‐‐ Jonathan Kozol
I am opposed to the wholesale giving away of the public lands to railroad corporations and other like institutions; at the same time, I believe that the government can encourage, by gifts, great national enterprises which are for the common weal and are so placed that they cannot properly expect local support.

‐‐ Troy Gentile
I am, out of the ladies' company, like a fish out of the water.
‐‐ Thomas Shadwell
I am outraged that a House member has tried through this provision to breach the traditional confidentiality of individual Americans' tax returns. There is no reason for this measure, and this last-minute act violates all principles of judgment and common sense.

‐‐ Chrissy Teigen
I am Parisian. I don't love the French.
‐‐ Carine Roitfeld
I am part of a circuit called 24 Hours of LeMons, where it's a sort of riff on 24 Hours of Le Mans. It's a poor man's weekend warrior racer event.
‐‐ Michael Trucco
I am part of a network of people monitoring what's happening at ancient sites in Iraq and Syria - from space. We can see clearly the destruction.
‐‐ Sarah Parcak
I am part of a team organising an Emma Hamilton exhibition for the National Maritime Museum for 2016, and the amount of planning is a revelation - borrowing from museums and collections all over the world.
‐‐ Kate Williams
I am part of a vast generation of people who perpetually live as if they just graduated from college.

‐‐ Tim Crouch
I am particularly pleased to see that the Bendheim Center for Finance is thriving.

I am particularly surprised that certain outlets look at pass rates irrespective of student population. As if inner city high school kids are to fare as well as college students.
‐‐ Sebastian Thrun
I am partly not conscious of structure with my movies, but this is when I am writing. I leave my mind very free, and then I correct it after.
‐‐ Pedro Almodovar

‐‐ Kareena Kapoor Khan
I am passionate about ballet.
‐‐ Benjamin Millepied
I am passionate about finding undiscovered and talented artists. I want to help those artists get to the next level and provide existing artists with a new way to reach fans.

I am passionate about human rights.
‐‐ Hannah Simone
I am passionate about keeping the human dimension in things. You have to keep the rough edges and the inconsistencies, that's what makes it interesting. I've always striven to be as sloppy as possible.
‐‐ Jarvis Cocker
I am passionate about music and my work to the bottom of my very soul, but I also very much enjoy good clothes and some of the finer things in life. Rappers do, too, and perhaps it's one of the reasons I've been welcomed so warmly into their world.
‐‐ Clive Davis
I am passionate about music - and people think because I go to places where I can enjoy music I have to be partying. It isn't true.
‐‐ Ronaldinho
I am passionate about swimming, which I try to do at least five times a week.
‐‐ Vikram Patel
I am passionate about talking to women about their breast health.
‐‐ Elizabeth Hurley
I am passionate about what design can do - how far it can support the new ideas and the new ways of living of this 21st Century. Good design accelerates this exciting future where manufacturing is local, materials and processes are cradle to cradle, business models are both socially and financially driven.

‐‐ Ken Burns
I am passionately invested in the survival of Israel and everything Israel represents. But I am extremely critical of much of its policy. I believe that the occupation must end. And if it doesn't, it will end Israel. I'm not in favor of settlements.

I am passionately opposed to capital punishment, and I have been all my life.
‐‐ Richard Attenborough
I am pathetically law-abiding.
