As Harvard historian of science Peter Galison has demonstrated, the universe of classified knowledge now far exceeds the universe of unclassified knowledge. That's a staggering thought. There is far more classified knowledge in the world than unclassified. And that disparity grows all the time.
I think some of the best movie stars in the world are guys who stay in their lane. You can lose an audience if you start saying, "Now I really want to do something that is just for me, but on a massive scale." That's a dangerous mix.
I know that when I grew up I was pretty sheltered, and didn't come to understand much about the world until I was in my really late teens and early twenties, and that process continues.
The world's gotten smaller by virtue of the Internet and new media.
I'm going to put every aspect of myself out into the world and try to convey it through photography.
The fact that "Léon: The Professional" doesn't have every award in the world is a sign that it is underrated. I'm not even ashamed to say that I cried during every scene.
For most of the track world, the Olympic year is such a huge year, and it's a big year for us marathoners too.
Be yourselves, be spunky, be spontaneous. Low-maintenance is always the biggest plus in the world.
You can make records from now 'til doomsday, and there are something like 50,000 records released every year, but the public gets to hear very few of these. They just won't know. They might be great records, but how in the world is the public supposed to find out about them?
I simply want to take a break and catch my breath. But I also think that, sometimes, the bravest thing you can do is to deliberately keep some time free and see what the world throws at you.
Inspiration comes from everything from the entire world, and its hard to pinpoint one thing. I can trace one inspiration to the writing of 13th-century Zen master Dogen Zenji, who writes beautifully about time.
A person is born form the deep conditions of the world. A person pokes up from the world and roll along like a wave. Until it's time to sink down again. Up, down. Person, wave.
If the Senate is the world's greatest deliberative body, the House is poised to be the world's greatest tweeting one.
Nobody's seen all my work. No one. No one in the world has seen all my movies. Some things just never came out... some things may still come out.

The old world is quickly disappearing, and the new opportunities are opening up.
I do a lot of cultural material that's based on my traveling around the world. I basically just report what I've seen and where I've been.
If you actually read the Bible, you can see there's a whole lot more information in there than the way we interpret the Bible. Because there are single lines in the Bible where if you just take them at face-value, they don't make any sense whatsoever in the world we see, we know, and we understand.
Right, we've got these institutions of media, these financial institutions, we have the means of distribution, we have the means of production, we have all these markets and maxims in place. How do we alter the consciousness, the fundamental unifying field? How do we influence change on that level to all of the world?
No one shuts their laptop after looking at pornography and says, 'What a productive time I just spent connecting with the world!'
The problem with the world is that not enough nations are trying to emulate what Americans've done.
I would love to see a debate on economics between Trump and Obama. Mr. 'Scholar,' Mr. Faculty Lounge Extraordinaire versus Mr. Real World Builder. I would love to see that. Obama wouldn't even get out his first sentence by the time Trump had given ten answers.
The world's state sponsor of terrorism is now on path, sanctioned by the United States, to create nuclear weapons. We are going to make it possible for them.
Just in the real world I think women are the ones that have all the power anyway.
This is a great nation at terrible risk in a dangerous world, and she has fully exposed this nation and will continue to do so because of her utter incompetence and Hillary Clinton lack of care, lack of attention, lack of concern.
