Rachael MacFarlaneI was a young man, and this is the kind of London it was, but so many people are just not here anymore. Not even Tina [Chow], who was to me absolutely the most important girl of the time. Tina was absolutely the chicest thing, the way she kept herself, the way she moved.

Rachel RoyIn sorting out my feelings and beliefs, there is, however, one piece of moral ground of which I am absolutely certain: if I were to be murdered I would not want my murderer executed.

She really immersed herself in the Commonwealth.

Bertrand RussellMy twenties were great. Who didn't have fun in their twenties? But my attention was more out there, more about the surface stuff and the cosmetic stuff. I was always thinking, 'What do I need to do?' Now in my thirties, it's, 'What do I want to do?' I've just become more solid with my own identity. So whoever wants to say their twenties are better... Yes, they're fun, especially at night - better parties, better cocktails... not better sex though. Absolutely not. And whoever says that is lying because sex in your thirties and beyond is f**king out of this world.
Zoe SaldanaWe need groups like the Women's March reminding elected officials that they have a responsibility to create pathways of opportunity, and if - and when - they aren't doing that, everyday people are going to put a little "extra" on their ordinary and extraordinary things will happen.

Ed SpeleersA company that was I think the one I learned the most from in Wall Street 2, just in terms of my own character in and the kind of firm he worked in, was John Thomas Financial.

Oscar WildeI think that the whole idea of โno regretsโ was always a silly idea to me, because of course I regret all the places I went wrong, but thatโs what creating anything, and being human, is all about. Of course if I could go back and knew what I know now, I absolutely would do it differently, Iโd do it the right way, but part of being human is that we canโt go back, we can only hope that if we come across that moment again, weโll do it the right way.
