'The Rocky Horror Show' was actually my first musical love.

The role at the DCCC as well as the role of chief deputy whip - I wouldn't be where I am in those spots if it were not for the speaker's approval.
‐‐ Joseph Crowley
The role I really want to sing is Elisabetta from 'Don Carlo.'
‐‐ Anna Netrebko
The role I see for my books is trying to think through the consequences of various things because a lot of the issues around technology and the nuances in it are not usually widely appreciated. That's how I view my writing as I sort of explore this terra incognita ahead of us in an effort to try to understand where we might be heading.

‐‐ Edward Levi
The role of a modern studio chief is much different to how the old studio chiefs used to operate. It's not so much a position of power anymore, but a position of influence.
‐‐ Ronald Meyer
The role of a museum of modern art is to make a good selection and identify what we believe to be the coming movements, and that requires taste.

‐‐ Melanne Verveer
The role of business is to provide products and services that make people's lives better - while using fewer resources - and to act lawfully and with integrity.
‐‐ Charles Koch
The role of Charlie Eppes has changed me. I never imagined I would play a role like this. I lost some weight, grew my hair and now every woman in America over 40 wants to date me. It's their daughters I want to convince. The truth is all this talk makes me blush. Me, I look in the mirror and all I see is this Jewish kid from Queens.
‐‐ David Krumholtz
The role of citizens, of Christianity, of humanity, is to take care of each other, not for Washington to steal from those in the country and give to others in the country.
‐‐ Stephen Fincher
The role of designers and product makers is to really become much better editors. What kind of functionality is actually needed - and truly delightful - to consumers? Remove all the extraneous stuff.

The role of Italy and of Austria has diminished as has that of France and Britain; Germany and Japan have suffered catastrophically.
‐‐ Emily Greene Balch
The role of leadership is to transform the complex situation into small pieces and prioritize them.
‐‐ Carlos Ghosn
The role of liquidity in systemic events provides yet another reason why, in the future, a more system wide or macroprudential approach to regulation is needed.
‐‐ Ben Bernanke
The role of my agent has just been to get me in the room. If I can get in the room - say the character is just a charming man who lives next door - then I'll walk in there and be as charming as I can and they will think to themselves, 'I don't see why we can't cast him.'

‐‐ Preston Manning
The role of the intellectual cannot be to excuse the violence of one side and condemn that of the other.
‐‐ Albert Camus
The role of the intellectual, so it is said, is to speak truth to power. Noam Chomsky has dismissed this pious tag on two grounds. For one thing, power knows the truth already; it is just busy trying to conceal it. For another, it is not those in power who need the truth, but those they oppress.
