Megaupload is not responsible for the piracy problem. It's the old business model of Hollywood that is responsible for it, and they want to keep that model alive at any cost.
‐‐ Kim Dotcom
Megaupload was a dual-use technology. You can use it for good things, and you can use it for bad things. If someone sends something illegal in an envelope through your postal service, you don't shut down the post office. If someone speeds with the car he just bought, you don't go to the car manufacturer and say, 'Hey, we're shutting you down.'

Mehlis will go all the way and we want to go all the way. These arrests show that no matter how high the perpetrators are, they will face the consequences of what they did.

Mehmet Ertegun died in 1944. President Roosevelt sent his body back to Turkey on the U.S.S. Missouri. Mehmet Ertegun and President Roosevelt had had a cordial relationship, and, indeed, Mehmet Ertegun may have helped insure that Turkey did not ally itself with Germany, as it had in the First World War.
‐‐ George W. S. Trow
Mehmet was the first sultan, and one of the first Muslims anywhere, to defy religious tradition by allowing his portrait to be made.

Meisner technique was different than anything I'd ever experienced. It's a really great way to be accountable to your craft and to yourself, but also it takes that kind of focus and dedication to learn anything.

Mel Blanc has been gone for 30 years, even though he's still around.
‐‐ John Kricfalusi
Mel Blanc is a hero because of what he could do with his voice for all the Looney Tunes, the Warner Brothers cartoons, to be the voice of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd, Porky Pig. To me, he's a great actor.
‐‐ Nicolas Cage
Mel Brooks is one of the few authentic geniuses working in comedy in America today.
‐‐ Gene Wilder
Mel Gibson doesn't need your judgment, he needs your prayers.
‐‐ Jim Caviezel
Mel Gibson is losing it. I don't know how people still supporting this dude's movies like it's all good. That dude is nuts. All you gotta do is shut him down and don't support any of his movies.
‐‐ J. B. Smoove
Mel Gibson was lovely. He was on the edge of both scenes that I had with Danny Glover.
‐‐ Tom Atkins
Mel Gibson would not be a good James Bond.
‐‐ Sophie Marceau
Mel is a great director because he's not just a director, he's an actor, so he knows how to direct actors. I loved working with him. He's great as a director. He's so intelligent. He's generous. I really loved him.
‐‐ Monica Bellucci
Mel is nuts. He puts on a suit and a tie and acts like a normal person so people think he's okay. He's definitely out in left field. He's got the ambition of a boy.
‐‐ Dom DeLuise
Mel's Diner in L.A. - they are my favorite hamburgers. I could eat there every day. They are ridiculous.
‐‐ Liam Hemsworth
Mel will always be Mad Max, and me, I will always be a Number.

Melancholy and sadness are the start of doubt... doubt is the beginning of despair; despair is the cruel beginning of the differing degrees of wickedness.
‐‐ Comte de Lautreamont
Melancholy has ceased to be an individual phenomenon, an exception. It has become the class privilege of the wage earner, a mass state of mind that finds its cause wherever life is governed by production quotas.
‐‐ Gunter Grass
Melancholy, indeed, should be diverted by every means but drinking.
‐‐ Samuel Johnson
Melancholy is as seductive as Ecstasy.
‐‐ Mason Cooley
Melancholy is no bad thing.
‐‐ Sting
'Melancholy' is prettier than 'depression'; it connotes a kind of nocturnal grace. Makes one feel more innocently beleaguered.
‐‐ Margo Jefferson
Melanie Fiona is a singer, a songwriter, she's a super-girl. I can be silly, goofy, really chilled. She's like your cool chill girlfriend, sister-friend. I'm just like everybody else.
‐‐ Melanie Fiona
Melanie is more of a disciplinarian with the little girl than me, probably because it's my first baby. She gets everything easy from Papa. I am more weak. She takes advantage of me.
‐‐ Antonio Banderas
Melanoma is not the most common of skin cancers, but it is the most dangerous if not found in the early stages.
‐‐ Jane Green
Melbourne is my type of city, much more so than Sydney.
‐‐ Morris Gleitzman
Melbourne is very sophisticated and edgy - we wear a lot of black. Things are lightening up a little bit, but truly, everything looks good in black.
‐‐ Jessica Hart
Melbourne, where I grew up, is one of the street art capitals of the world. Something about discovering freshly painted walls always fills me with optimism; it's autonomous and democratic, and reminds me that maybe people are paying attention after all.
‐‐ Penelope Mitchell
Melissa and I have the best working relationship, and we feel that Jack and Jennifer have so much more to do.
‐‐ Matthew Ashford
Melissa Barak, an ex-City Ballet dancer and sometime choreographer, has put together an unspeakably dopey and incompetent mess called 'Call Me Ben,' combining ultra-generic dance, terrible dialogue and disastrous storytelling, about the founding of Las Vegas by the gangster Bugsy Siegel, who insists, violently, on being addressed as 'Ben.'
‐‐ Robert Gottlieb
Melissa Biggs Bradley spent a decade as Travel Editor of 'Town & Country,' and later served as the founding editor of 'Town & Country Travel.' She then launched Indagare Souk, an online marketplace of global treasures.
‐‐ Amanda Hearst
Melissa McCarthy just opened this new movie, 'Identity Thief,' and Rex Reed, who's a known critic, wrote a scathing commentary on her weight. I think that weight designation is one of the last frontiers of bullying. I don't know what the right 'ism' for it is, but I think that there's a level of that that's happening that's certainly not okay.

Mellow doesn't always make for a good story, but it makes for a good life.
‐‐ Anne Hathaway
Mellow doesn't describe me. I'm hungry every day.
‐‐ Alan Rickman
Melodic invention is one of the surest signs of a divine gift.
‐‐ Gustav Mahler
Melodic songs that people can relate to has always been our thing.
‐‐ Andy Taylor
Melodies are just honest. They can only be what they are. Words have the capacity for deception. They're all full of subtext, and some of them are cliche and overused and vernacular. They're tricky. All I can say is, words are tricky.
‐‐ Andrew Bird
Melodrama and melodramatic are not the same thing, and often people make the mistake of confusing the two.
‐‐ James Gray
Melodrama is one of the most stunning art forms. These are stories where the emotions are big, and the situations are big, and the artists believe in the situation dramatically. There's no irony or distance.
‐‐ James Gray
Melodrama is something that is created... I don't seen a melodramatic episode of '90210' or any show that relies on that and think, 'Oh, that's life. That's how I experience it.'
‐‐ Peter Horton
Melody has a certain way that it projects back to you. It triggers certain nerves in your body and certain instincts that normally wouldn't be triggered by a normal voice.
‐‐ Akon
Melody is a form of remembrance. It must have a quality of inevitability in our ears.
‐‐ Gian Carlo Menotti
Melody is disarming. It's anarchic!
‐‐ Mika
Melody is king, and don't you ever forget it. Lyrics appear to be out front, but they're not; they're just an accompanying factor. If they're good, you're really in good shape. Lyrics are written to be rewritten.
‐‐ Quincy Jones
Melody is the single most important thing to any song, period. I don't care what anybody says, it trumps everything. Not because that's my opinion but because I think it's actually indisputable fact. The human brain retains melody easier than it retains words. It's that simple.
‐‐ Ryan Tedder
Melrose is the finest remaining specimen of Gothic architecture in Scotland. Some of the sculptured flowers in the cloister arches are remarkably beautiful and delicate, and the two windows - the south and east oriels - are of a lightness and grace of execution really surprising.
‐‐ Bayard Taylor
Melted down, silver is worth a little more than four dollars an ounce. But carved, inlaid, and engraved, and identified with a particular year, it becomes the direct reflection, often the literal record, of human history, our movement through time.
‐‐ Peter Landesman
Melville brought to the task a sound knowledge of actual whaling, much curious learning in the literature of the subject, and, above all, an imagination which worked with great power upon the facts of his own experience.
