I have written things that Republicans and Democrats and all kinds of figures have either hated or felt very uncomfortable about. Because in doing these long projects and books, you get close to the bone. And they're not calling me up and asking me for dinner.

Bob Woodward I joined another circle and the leader gave us a little leaflet in very small print, asking us to read it carefully and then come prepared to ask questions. It was a technical Marxist subject and I did not understand it nor did I know what questions to ask. Agnes Smedley I just got a call one day from Ringo asking me if I wanted to go out on the tour. It was as simple as that. He was putting together this band and he heard of me in the context of doing this and he gave me a call. I jumped at the chance. Greg Lake I know that Duke made a number of demands, including that the attorney general drop its investigation. We have no intention of asking the attorney general to do that. Gray Davis I love the early process of asking questions about a story and deciding which questions matter most. Diane Sawyer I once was interviewed and got so exasperated that I said, 'What do you want, a shopping list?' They kept asking, 'What's in this picture?' Howard Hodgkin I refused David Letterman's proposal of marriage for obvious reasons, but thanks for asking. Teri Garr I remember Mick Jagger asking me 'hey, how do you guys feel about us coming over here and taking all the play from you guys?' I said 'Well, in a way, you have eliminated all my competition. Bobby Vinton I responded to the request because during these times when we are asking so much of our men and women in the armed services it is especially important that we properly honor those who died in the service of their country. Robert A. Brady I saw a guy being really abusive to his girlfriend. She was asking people to help, but no one would. When he grabbed her, I tried to separate them, but he turned on me. I punched him and knocked him down. It wasn't a scandal; I was just doing what anybody should. Timothy Hutton I speak relatively little, except when I'm at home and I'm asking for things. Roger Moore I spent a lot of time in churches. If you go to a synagogue, someone is always asking if you're alone, if you're married. In a church, in a hundred years no one would ask. Peter Malkin I think cheese smells funny, but I feel bananas "are" funny. I'm assuming Swamp told the whole story of the executives seriously asking us to replace the banana with cheese because they thought it was funnier. Joe Murray I think in part the reason is that seeing an economy that is, in many ways, quite different from the one grows up in, helps crystallize issues: in one's own environment, one takes too much for granted, without asking why things are the way they are. Joseph E. Stiglitz I think it is fair to say that it is under a great deal of stress, and if I am asking for significant changes, it is because the world is going through significant changes. Mohamed ElBaradei I think people are going to keep asking me about Macaulay. Some things change and some things don't. Kieran Culkin I think people expect mud at festivals, I think you'd be asking for your money back if you didn't get it. Peter Hook I think the point about ActionAid is what it's asking people to do is engage with poor people in developing countries and understand what their lives are like and understand how the way we live our lives impacts on theirs. Emma Thompson I think there are different ways of being rigorous, and I am asking people to be as rigorous in their pleasure as in their criticism. Barbara Kruger I was asking Charlie the most important questions, and you heard the answers. Edgar Bergen |
