I feel strongly that degrees are really valuable to people, and having MOOCs allow for credit down the line will increase the number of students with the confidence and wherewithal to complete degrees. Daphne Koller Read Quote
I was a halfback on an American football team in Athens, Greece – the Kississia Colts – where I went to high school, and we took the Cup my senior year. The downside, and somewhat unfortunate piece of information I have to pass on, is there were only two teams in the league because of the limited amount of Americans. Greg Kinnear Read Quote

I think that’s one of the things that has always put me in kind of an odd niche. It’s that all of my understanding of orchestral music is via film, not via classical music like it’s supposed to be. To me it’s the same, it doesn’t make any difference. Danny Elfman Read Quote
Anything that’s on television as often as someone on ‘The X Factor’ is what’s successful. That doesn’t mean that I condone that or think that it’s right. To be honest, I’d be the first to say I think it’s a shame. But if that’s the way it is then that’s the way it is. Paloma Faith Read Quote
I made a point when I made the Ugly Casanova record to not write a song and then say, ‘This is a Modest Mouse song’ or ‘This is an Ugly Casanova song.’ The people who were open to it not being a Modest Mouse record liked it. Isaac Brock Read Quote
I think, as an actress, whether you want to or not, whether you’re ready for it or not, people are going to look at what you’re doing, and they are going to look up to you, and it’s not even really about you; it’s who you portray on the screen. Rita Volk Read Quote
Every time you win a cup, it’s special, but it’s a dream come true when it happens at a club where you started in the youth set-up, surrounded by friends who formed an incredible generation of players. Clarence Seedorf Read Quote
Everybody’s family plays them music, and my grandma used to play a lot of old-school stuff, like Ron Isley and Gladys Knight. Earth, Wind & Fire is the one I started paying attention to. My uncle introduced me to R&B, like Dru Hill, 112 and all those dudes. Bryson Tiller Read Quote
