‘Like most lit nerds, I’m a voracious reader.

‘I have an iPad and I watch three things: ‘The Daily Show,’ ’60 Minutes,’ and ‘Meet the Press.” – Jesse Eisenberg
‘There’s very little you could do to prepare to be a correspondent on ‘The Daily Show,’ because it’s not being a journalist, it’s not being an actor.

‘As we’ve grown ‘The Daily Muse’ and met contacts who want to collaborate with us, knowing who does what has helped us be clear on who we want our partners to connect with – and makes us look buttoned up, too. SEO firm? Talk to our COO. An editor from the ‘Huffington Post?’ Meet our Editor-in-Chief.’ – Kathryn Minshew
‘Much-derided chick lit, chick flicks, and chick magazines have left ambitious women in a bind.

‘When The Daily Muse initially wanted to launch a job board, our first ideas were insanely (and needlessly) complex. We wanted to integrate with social networks, gather rich personal data to build predictive algorithms, and put together numerous cool visualization tools before launching out to the world. We were just sure users would love it!’ – Kathryn Minshew
‘We knew when we started the Daily Muse, we wanted a recruiting-focused business model rather than an advertising-focused one. We felt like publishers were being forced to go to more and more extreme lengths to monetize through advertising.’ – Kathryn Minshew

‘It’s my fond hope that social networks such as Facebook will help users broaden their perspectives by listening to a different set of people than they encounter in their daily life. But I fear services such as Facebook may be turning us into imaginary cosmopolitans.’ – Ethan Zuckerman

‘When girls feel bad about their looks, 60 percent avoid normal daily activities like raising their hand in class or even going to the doctor.

‘In improv, the whole thing is that it is a relationship between the two people, as a back and forth.

‘A good host is someone who really takes care of everyone, from the food to their daily programme. I can’t.’ – Christian Louboutin

‘Mum left school at 15, and after a few years of modelling and dating jazz musicians, was married by 21 to my father, Mike Taylor, a journalist on the ‘Daily Mirror.’ They had my brother and me pretty quickly and had split up by the time I was two. I don’t really have any memories of them as a couple.’ – Natascha McElhone

‘What a circus act we women perform every day of our lives. Look at us. We run a tightrope daily, balancing a pile of books on the head. Baby-carriage, parasol, kitchen chair, still under control.

‘I’m not really much of an actor, so when I started on ‘The Daily Show,’ I was just trying to adopt the faux authority of a newsperson. Having a British accent definitely gave me a sonic leg up on that because there is a faux authority to the British accent in and of itself.’ – John Oliver
‘My first ‘Daily Show’ piece was pretending I had this terrible immigrant journey, so I went to talk to an immigration lawyer who would help out people, and I ran into him in Penn Station about three months after I’d gotten the green card.

‘There are huge divorces and divides and chasms in black America between the have-gots and the have-nots, between the monied and the poor, between the educated and the non-educated.

‘Truth is, I think, if God just gave us our daily bread, many of us would be angry. ‘That’s all you’re going to give me? You’re just going to give me enough to sustain me for today?

‘I used to go over to Gene Kelly’s house and play volleyball, and Paul Newman and Marlon Brando were always there. You kind of took it for granted because I was 20, 21, 22, and they were a bit older – well, Gene certainly was. But it was just part of daily living. They were in the same profession, and you didn’t think that much about it.’ – Joan Collins

‘I follow blogs, particularly all the main political ones – Guido Fawkes, Iain Dale, Coffee House, Paul Waugh, Iain Martin in the Wall Street Journal, and so on.

‘The daily quota I’ve set for myself is 500 words or approximately a page and a half double-spaced. Which isn’t much, except that I’m extremely slow, extremely meticulous. ‘Le mot juste’ haunts me.

‘I’ve actually always started with what feels most natural. Which is, the people who surround me in my daily life.

Sharma

‘Writing is how I find out what I believe and what I care most deeply about. It’s how I sort through the mess of daily experience and try to make sense of it – by stepping out of it for a while.

‘For almost every novel I’ve written, I’ve read the daily newspaper of the time almost as if it were my current subscription.

For ‘Henry and Clara,’ I read the ‘Albany Evening Journal’ of the time.’ – Thomas Mallon

‘It’s scary to not know when your next job is coming, and that is a daily fear when you are trying to act full-time.’ – Allison Tolman

‘I’m free to see things objectively because I don’t consider myself American, and I don’t consider myself British or Indian.

‘I always used to watch ‘The Daily Show,’ and there were all these comedic geniuses there. I didn’t know if I was going to be hired full time or not.

‘I worked with Ismail Merchant on ‘The Mystic Masseur,’ I did ‘Sakina’s Restaurant,’ I’ve done plays, I’ve been on Broadway, I’ve done movies, I’ve done TV… but nothing has had the pop culture penetrative impact as ‘The Daily Show’ has. It’s the nature of the beast.’ – Aasif Mandvi

‘In September 2005, I was three things: the media blogger for ‘FishbowlNY,’ a maniacal Daily Show fan, and the only person to smuggle a tape recorder and camera into a big Magazine Publishers of America event featuring Jon Stewart interviewing five hotshot magazine editors in an unbelievable bloodbath.’ – Rachel Sklar

‘For the uninitiated, ‘Calvin and Hobbes’ is a daily comic strip detailing the antics of an unruly six-year-old and his misanthropic stuffed tiger.

‘The last time I saw Dad alive, he was in the hospital. He was watching ‘Hell Drivers,’ a crummy B-movie about truckers, on TV and reading the ‘Daily Record.’ This seems scarcely believable, but I actually said, ‘Dad, you’ve not got long to go – don’t you think you should be imbibing the culture a bit more?” – John Niven

‘I rise at 6. Strong coffee helps me face the paper edition of ‘The New York Times.’ It daily challenges my own capacity for faking anything deranged enough to sound true. I work till 2 P.M. unless I am in the throes of finishing something. I rewrite to be reread.’ – Allan Gurganus

The way you have that coffee now is probably very different from the way you had it ten years ago, and it’ll probably be very different in ten years. That has a huge impact, culturally and economically.’ – David Sax
‘Though sporting a hideous mustache is in no way comparable to the physical pain and mental suffering men with these diseases endure, Movember still forces participants to challenge their manhood on a daily basis.

‘For my wife Mary Corliss and me, ‘Colbert’ has been destination viewing. Even in the early years, we never took the show’s excellence for granted, agreeing that someday we’d look back on the double whammy of ‘The Daily Show’ and ‘The Colbert Report’ as the golden age of TV’s singeing singing satire.’ – Richard Corliss
‘Though not really a comedy, ‘Rosewater’ is a demonstration of the creed behind ‘The Daily Show’: belief in the crucial need for impious wit against entrenched power. The freedom of the press is also the freedom to depress – and to inspire. That’s a message that can outlive any Oscar season.’ – Richard Corliss
‘Health is really important to me and my family. It’s something that we value and that I strive for on a daily basis. MedImmune, the makers of Flumist Quadrivalent, knew about that and knew how important health is for me, so it was a no brainer for me to collaborate with them.’ – Tia Mowry
‘Our small and peaceful country is threatened daily by covetous and bigoted big powers whose hunger for domination and control of other nations and their resources knows no bounds.’ – Robert Mugabe
