Now they're talking about opening another location. He will open another location and be successful because he's following his dream.

Amma AsanteWe need to confront the crisis of Islamic extremism and the Islamists and Islamic terror of all kinds.

And political leaders must speak out to affirm the same idea. Heroes don't kill innocents. They save them.

Vivek WadhwaFor me, there is nothing better than being able to work with my dad every day. But, I know that isn't God's plan for everyone. Fathers, trust God and be a great example for your sons. Even if I didn't work with my dad, the example he set in his personal and public life - as my dad and as a husband, a brother, and a son - is a major part of the reason I am who I am today. Inspire them, encourage them, and guide them. Do everything you can to instill the right values and a strong faith that can carry them through even the toughest times.

Nalini NadkarniLiving in a foreign country is one of those things that everyone should try at least once. My understanding was that it completed a person, sanding down the rough provincial edges and transforming you into a citizen of the world.

There would be a goal involved, and I like having goals.

Not feeling that I have to know everything, and thatโs where the growth comes in, in the not knowing.

I say the problem is that the painters' curiosity has come to an end, and this is more observable in the West and not in the East, since in the East there are plenty of untouched and unexplored spaces that could still inspire an artist as sources of creativity.

Emily RobisonI do question a band's longevity, because most of my favorite bands only made one or two good albums. After that, I didn't care about them anymore. Sometimes I wonder if people feel the same thing about us. The way I look at it is, if we can continue to inspire ourselves and write really beautiful music that we're proud of, I don't think there's any intention to stop.
