He’s keeping me aligned with that generation.’ Because I genuinely love people, I love hip-hop, and I love using it as a tool to communicate and to create a better vibration. Life is short. I guess I’m lined up for a reason.’ – Doug E. Fresh

”The Sun Also Rises’ by Ernest Hemingway is my favorite book. You feel manly reading it.’ – Elizabeth Olsen

‘As I made my way through ‘On Line,’ the austere, stridently dogmatic, sometimes revelatory exhibition ‘about line’ at MoMA, I found myself thinking, ‘Someone please wake me when the seventies are over!’ In the empire of curators, the sun never sets on the seventies. It is the undead decade.’ – Jerry Saltz

‘There are jobs to be created on both sides of the climate argument. Whether we are investing in oil or sun, coal or wind, gas or algae, the economy will be stimulated by the investment. The economy, unlike each of us, is not swayed by ideology.’ – Evangeline Lilly

‘Not to be a Bible-thumper, but there really is nothing new under the sun.’ – Meshell Ndegeocello

‘I have olive skin, so if I’m in the sun for even 15 minutes, I turn brown.’ – Audrina Patridge

‘While writing ‘Half of a Yellow Sun,’ I enjoyed playing with minor things: inventing a train station in a town that has none, placing towns closer to each other than they are, changing the chronology of conquered cities. Yet I did not play with the central events of that time.’ – Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

‘When we’re born, we want to know why the stars shine. We want to know why the sun rises.’ – Michio Kaku

‘Space is dark but, of course, when we’re on the sun side of the Earth, we’re in full illumination and we have all the reflection of the Earth below us, beautiful blue Earth and we’re in daylight. Only on the back side, opposite side of the sun, it seems like night to us, too.’ – Kevin A. Ford

‘I’m not one of those people who wakes up and thinks, ‘Bring on the day!’ I have to have about 7 pints of coffee before I’m even remotely awake.

‘In the history of mankind there are recorded two great Inversions. The first, set forth by the Nazarene to the effect that love is a greater power and more real than vengeance. The second proclaimed the earth to be a sphere revolving in its course around the sun. These affirmations were made in the face of all evidence sacred to the contrary.’ – Louis Sullivan

‘I planted my self in the middle of a great many Glasses full of Dew, tied fast about me, upon which the Sun so violently darted his Rays, that the Heat, which attracted them, as it does the thickest Clouds, carried me up so high, that at length I found my self above the middle Region of the Air.’ – Cyrano de Bergerac

‘We do not accost a physician as we do any mere nobody; nor a magistrate as we do a private individual. We try to get some advantage from the skill of the one and the position of the other. Walk in the sun, and your shadow will follow you, whether you will or not.’ – Saint Basil

‘From the sons of Ith, the first of the Gael to get his death in Ireland, there came in the after time Fathadh Canaan, that got the sway over the whole world from the rising to the setting sun, and that took hostages of the streams and the birds and the languages.’ – Lady Gregory

‘I’m definitely much more of a beach bunny. I prefer the sun over the snow.’ – Gillian Zinser

‘When you’re in a fighter jet and there’s a dark layer of clouds with just one blue hole with the sun going through it, you shoot for that hole. You go vertical into the light, and suddenly, instead of gray and dark, it’s light and blue. You are totally connected with the elements. You are in another world.’ – Yves Rossy

‘I suggest we take our heads out of the tar sands and look up to see the sun. We don’t own it, but it provides us all with great, endless value. So, too, the wind. These free, renewable sources of ‘energy currency’ are perfect partners to what we own together.’ – William McDonough

‘Galileo got it wrong. The earth does not revolve around the sun. It revolves around you and has been doing so for decades. At least, this is the model you are using.’ – Srikumar Rao

‘There’s just no place like Scotland when the sun is out. I just love coming home.’ – Ashley Jensen

‘What most people know but don’t realize they know is that the world is almost entirely solar-powered already. If the sun wasn’t there, we’d be a frozen ice ball at three degrees Kelvin, and the sun powers the entire system of precipitation. The whole ecosystem is solar-powered.’ – Elon Musk

‘In Cape Town, there’s a drive from Cape Point to Camps Bay where the road is hewn out of the cliffs. It’s just stunning, particularly if you do it as the sun is going down.’ – Sean Pertwee

‘Some actors are like flowers basking in the sun – they love the attention, and the fans get what they want. With me it’s different. I know the fans aren’t getting what they want. And I’m certainly not getting what I want.’ – Natascha McElhone

‘Vitamin D from mushrooms is not only vegan and vegetarian friendly, but you can prepare your own by exposing mushrooms to the summer sun.’ – Paul Stamets

‘I’m lucky in that I travel a lot for work. I also manage several holidays a year. I’m not someone who sits in the sun or goes sightseeing, though. If I go away, it will be for fishing or something like that.’ – Vinnie Jones

‘Because I was the only child, I was completely indulged. My father thought I was the best looking boy. And even though I was at 100 kgs., he dismissed it as puppy fat. He thought that the sun came out of my head. If I got five out of ten marks, he thought I was half there and had only half way more to go.’ – Karan Johar

‘My morning begins with trying not to get up before the sun rises. But when I do, it’s because my head is too full of words, and I just need to get to my desk and start dumping them into a file. I always wake with sentences pouring into my head.’ – Barbara Kingsolver

‘I enjoy dramatic narration, of course, because I’m an actor and I started as an actor. But I love things that are a challenge, and I look forward to more work with that in the future. So there’s always a sun coming up the following day for me.’ – Peter Cullen

‘I feel extraordinarily peaceful when I’m watching the sun set.’ – Kiefer Sutherland

‘In the industrial age and in analog clocks, a minute is some portion of an hour which is some portion of a day. You know, in the digital age, a minute is just a number. It’s just 3:23. It’s almost this absolute duration that doesn’t have a connection to where the sun is or where our day is.’ – Douglas Rushkoff

‘We need a community of nations capable of space flight because we all have to be off this planet sometime in the future. Our sun is going to burn out eventually, and we are not in a sustainable situation.’ – Edgar Mitchell

‘The most dangerous part of the race is early evening and especially early morning. It’s the twilight zone. Either you’re going into darkness and the sun is dropping down, or you’re coming out of the darkness and the sun is coming up. At the same time, you’ve got new drivers coming in and feeling their way around the circuit.’ – Allan McNish

‘We support each other in the Coppola family. We love the idea of everyone getting his place in the sun.’ – Francis Ford Coppola

‘I am allergic highly to the sun; that’s my worst enemy.’ – Trick Daddy

‘It’s all about the light. Always face it, because that’s how you give your face good angles. If you’re outside when the sun is overhead, you’re going to have dark circles from the sun creating shadows on your face. So no outdoor pictures between 12 and two!’ – Gisele Bundchen

‘I’m not a yogi, but I know the sun salutation.’ – Marc Jacobs

‘There were many years when I was hand-to-mouth and didn’t know how I was gonna make rent. I’ve done every job under the sun, from busing tables, temping, and working in factories to SAT prep and detailing cars. So to be able to make a living where all I do is write is absolutely liberating.’ – Beau Willimon

‘I’m exploring the maturity, the wisdom that just comes from having gone around the sun 50 times. My experience is, ‘Oh, I’m never really going to get it right. I’m never going to get it done. But that’s not the point here.’ The point is the journey.’ – Melissa Etheridge

‘I love skiing, I love the sun, I love my children, I love my grandchildren, I love my family and friends… and whatever I haven’t done.’ – Donna Karan

‘Most of the time, particularly with this record, ‘The Light of the Sun,’ I really just been standing in front of a microphone and blacking out musically, you know. I’d come back a couple hours later and there’s six songs from beginning to end, you know? I don’t know what I’m going to say. I don’t know how I’m going to say it.’ – Jill Scott

‘To speak of oneself means to lay bare one’s own soul, expose it like a body to the sun. To lay bare one’s own soul is not at all like taking off one’s brassiere on a crowded beach!’ – Oriana Fallaci

‘Asteroids are deep-space bodies orbiting the Sun, not the Earth, and traveling to one would mean sending humans into solar orbit for the very first time. Facing those challenges of radiation, navigation and life support on a months-long trip millions of miles from home would be a perfect learning journey before a Mars trip.’ – Rusty Schweickart

‘I love Tate Modern; there’s such great style and shopping here. I love the galleries and the pubs out on the street, just having your pint as the sun is setting.’ – Drew Barrymore

‘I cannot possibly conceive of my planet Earth as the centre of a three-tiered universe. I know rather that the sun, around which my planet Earth revolves, is a middle sized star in a galaxy called the Milky Way that has over a hundred billion other suns or stars within it.’ – John Shelby Spong

‘I only really and truly fully relax on my own. Give me a sun lounger, a pool and a sea view, and I’m happy.’ – Miranda Hart

‘I don’t want to participate in traditional Indian religious ceremonies – dance in a sun dance or pray in a sweat lodge or go on a vision quest with the help of a medicine man. The power of these ceremonies has an appeal, but I’m content with what little religion I already have.’ – Ian Frazier

‘I think it’s hard to put a finger on my music. My music has always been an amalgamation of everything I listen to, which includes everything and anything under the sun. Hip-hop to country to R&B to pop, all the things I’m inspired by find a way into what I do.’ – Travie McCoy

‘I usually get down with a little Violent Femmes in the summer. You know, ‘Blister In The Sun.” – Nick Robinson

‘There’s a lot to do in space. I want to learn more about the greenhouse effect on Venus, about whether there was life on Mars, about the environment in which Earth and the Sun is immersed, the behavior of the Sun.’ – Neil deGrasse Tyson

‘Technically, maybe I learned most of all from George Stevens, and among his movies I learned the most from ‘A Place in the Sun.’ It’s a lesson in moviemaking.’ – Mike Nichols

‘You might find me outside with a can of hair spray, spraying it with the hope that the sun will burn a hole in the Earth. Another part of me hopes people will grow up and evolve and get smarter. That’s the paradox of Marilyn Manson.’ – Marilyn Manson

‘It’s too bad about ‘Dark of the Sun.’ It was really about Tshombe. When I read the script, I thought it was going to be a political movie, and I thought we might even have a hassle. But the director simplified it to brutality and bad taste.’ – Jim Brown

‘Dr. Sun Yat-sen, Father of the Republic, made it his great aim in his revolutionary leadership to secure freedom and equality of status for China among the nations of the world.’ – Chiang Kai-shek

‘We Chinese are instinctively democratic, and Dr. Sun’s objective of universal suffrage evokes from all Chinese a ready and unhesitating response.’ – Chiang Kai-shek

‘I have implicit faith in Sun Yat-sen, not because I am his blind follower, but because he really arouses the deepest respect in everybody. I do not know of another person in China who has such a broad and international outlook, whose ideas are so constructive, and who has such deep faith and confidence in his own mission.’ – Chiang Kai-shek

‘To my ears, jazz sounds better in warm weather and after the sun has gone down.

Something about those sounds and the heat of the night really makes it happen for me.’ – Henry Rollins

‘When I was a kid a long time ago, when the sun rose, I was outside on my bike. If my parents were lucky – poor parents! – I would be home before it got dark.’ – Larry Ellison

‘Spring, when the earth tilts closer to the sun, runs a strict timetable of flowers.’ – Alice Oswald

‘On ‘Frasier,’ a network executive once suggested that one week we have John Lithgow play Frasier and Kelsey Grammar play Lithgow’s role on ‘3rd Rock From the Sun;’ I’ve been deeply afraid of the idea of a crossover ever since.’ – Christopher Lloyd

‘We do not even see the sun for several months in the north of Sweden.’ – Alexander Ahndoril

‘The reason we have the stars twinkle at night is because the light is being kind of blurred by the atmosphere around the Earth. That is why the Hubble Space Telescope is so good, because it is above the atmosphere. So it is kind of like looking at the sun from the bottom of a swimming pool, versus looking at the sun above the swimming pool.’ – Michael J. Massimino

‘Sports exact too harsh a toll on our beautiful women. Like engendered species, they should be protected, and instead, we exploit them and demand they fly too close to the sun for our amusement. We send them into the arena for an exhausting three-setter, an 18-hole playoff, a 200th lap. The burnout factor is insurmountable.’ – Kevin Bleyer

‘I started with Sidney Poitier and Ruby Dee and Lou Gossett, Jr. and the rest of the wonderful cast of ‘A Raisin In The Sun.’ We were directed by the great Lloyd Richards. The play was written by the wonderful Lorraine Hansberry, and it was produced by Phil Rose. That’s where my start was, so… not a bad way to start.’ – Glynn Turman

‘In London, a lot of the time you don’t see the sun shine.’ – Desiree Rogers

‘Bliss is the ocean, a towel on the sand, the sun out, the chance to swim in waves or walk dragging a stick behind you, a good book, a cold drink.’ – Deb Caletti

‘The stars look the same from night to night. Nebulae and galaxies are dully immutable, maintaining the same overall appearance for thousands or millions of years. Indeed, only the sun, moon and planets – together with the occasional comet, asteroid or meteor – seem dynamic.’ – Seth Shostak

‘The planets and moons of our solar system are blatantly visible because they reflect sunlight. Without the nearby Sun, these planets would be cryptic and dark on the sky.’ – Seth Shostak

‘Of course, Sol is a big ball of hot gas, but one that – thanks to its endlessly boiling innards – shakes and vibrates. By studying patterns on the Sun’s surface, astronomers can learn much about Sol’s internal construction.’ – Seth Shostak

‘Today’s voguish threats, including climate change, population growth, massive war, and resource depletion, are all amenable to a fix if we act prudently. And even if we don’t, these problems are incapable of obliterating all of humanity, let alone destroying the Earth. No, the real End of Days will happen slowly, as the Sun ages.’ – Seth Shostak

‘Note to academics: Aristarchus’ track record of astronomical research would probably have guaranteed him tenure somewhere, if tenure had been invented. His stack of reprints included measuring the distances of the Moon and Sun.’ – Seth Shostak

‘The bottom line is that the position of the Sun relative to the stars slowly changes for any given date, and over the course of 26,000 years, it can easily slide between constellations. So you may think you’re a Pisces, but you’re actually an Aquarius.’ – Seth Shostak

‘Even if the Moon didn’t exist – even if it had been vaporized billions of years ago by cantankerous Klingons – there would still be (somewhat lower) tides raised by the Sun. For creatures dependent on the oceans’ ebb and flow, life could go on.’ – Seth Shostak

‘The central region of the Milky Way, known as the bulge, is stuffed with literally tens of billions of stars. And most of these are old – considerably older than our Sun or its neighbors – because this part of the galaxy formed first. Consequently, bulge stars are generally deficient in heavy elements.’ – Seth Shostak

‘Sometimes I think I should have chosen a line of work where it was just me alone in the room, with the sun coming in, and God, insofar as he or she exists, smiling down upon me. Then I would have never been accused of being a tyrant, other than towards myself.’ – Charlie Trotter

‘It’s a bit of a history lesson, being an actor. I was in ‘Burnt By The Sun’ at the National, which was set in Stalinist Russia, so I discovered all about that. You learn so much as you go along.’ – Michelle Dockery

‘In actuality, California could be a wonderful place to live. In fact, if you’re highly educated and ambitious, you can do quite well here while enjoying the sun and the fun. The only problem: California will then blame you for your success and recommend that all your cash be removed from you.’ – Ben Shapiro

‘You could look at something a hundred times from space, but the next time you come around the world, suddenly it’s very different and gorgeous-looking, just because of the change of weather or the angle of the sun.’ – Chris Hadfield

‘I’d always been extremely fascinated by the French Nuit Blanche, which is a weekend that they have in Paris where they keep all the museums open until dawn. You can go and hang out in Versailles in the middle of the night and watch the sun come up.’ – Anna Wintour

‘Stars that become supernovae start off at least eight times heavier than our sun. They’re so short-lived that, even if they have planets, there is unlikely to be time for life to get started. The surface is 40,000C and, as a result, the colouring will be extremely blue.’ – Martin Rees

‘I just felt it was my job to show that there is no easy way to success, and that anyone who gets even just one Top 40 hit deserves their moment in the sun. I accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative. That is the timeless thing.’ – Casey Kasem

‘The Left likes to think of itself as the bulwark of progressive liberal individualism, and yet it seeks to progressively coerce others to fund every social program under the sun via majority rule.’ – Dave Brat

‘I think a fictional invention grows according to its own development, not the author’s. Characters in fiction are not simply as alive as you and me, they are more alive. Becky Sharp, Elizabeth Bennett, and Don Quixote may not outlive the burning out of the sun, but they will certainly outlive the brief candle of our lives.’ – Cynthia Ozick

‘There is a project that’s underway called the interplanetary Internet. It’s in operation between Earth and Mars. It’s operating on the International Space Station. It’s part of the spacecraft that’s in orbit around the Sun that’s rendezvoused with two planets.’ – Vint Cerf

‘It would be misleading to say, ‘I believe in the Force,’ in the same sense that it would be misleading to say, ‘I believe in the sun.’ Give it whatever name you like – the Force, the Tao, the Holy Spirit, the Universal Mind – I see it in action everywhere I look, both in the world and in myself.’ – Matthew Stover

‘I faced odds when glaucoma took the bat out of my hands. But I didn’t give in or feel sorry for myself. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: ‘It may be cloudy in my right eye, but the sun is shining very brightly in my left eye.” – Allan Ray

‘Mom takes all the credit for my success. Now Mom says, ‘I read your face when you were a baby, and it said you were going to be a star. That’s why I named you Ming – because it’s all about the sun and the stars and enlightenment.” – Ming-Na Wen

‘As you wake up to sort of Morocco coming to life, and you drive a two hour journey through the desert as the sun is rising over the sand dunes… I saw landscapes and visual stuff that I’ll never forget. It was special.’ – Jim Sturgess

We had an amazing songwriting session together, connecting.’ – Steve Aoki

‘The source of all the energy is the sun. The big challenge is, how do you use all of that energy? Solar power has to fascinate you. There have been strides to get the costs down, and if this will work, you have to get costs down so it is competitive with fossil fuels.’ – George P. Shultz

‘I’m totally active. I am just this side of hyper. I jog and go to the gym every day. When I’m on the computer, I’m reading, I’m writing, I’m never quiet. My brain is very rarely not engaged. Every now and again I will fall asleep under the parasol in the sun, but that’s a rarity.’ – Suzi Quatro

‘It is a matter of common knowledge among mystics that the evolutionary career of mankind is indissolubly bound up with the divine hierarchies, who rule the planets and the signs of the Zodiac, and that the passage of the Sun and the planets through the twelve signs of the Zodiac, marks man’s progress in time and in space.’ – Max Heindel

‘If we strive to strengthen our body now; to overcome our faults; to cultivate new virtues; the Sun of our next life will rise under much more auspicious conditions than those under which we now live, and thus we may truly rule our stars and master our fate.’ – Max Heindel

‘The fun of sitting around Pangong Lake with 40 guys around a fireplace, having a glass of wine… staying in one camp together… that’s an experience. Waking up at 5 in the morning, watching the sun come up. You don’t do these things in Bombay.’ – Gautam Singhania

They are amazing!’ – Isabel Lucas

‘I spent the first summer after my diagnosis creeping about in giant sun hats and tents, cursing the sun, staying inside as much as possible. Now I am beginning to think the most important thing is educated sun exposure, because the melanomas of today are not caused by today’s sunbathing, but by our childhoods and early adolescence.’ – Jane Green

‘Discovering L.A., in particular in the early ’80s, was pretty spectacular; it was fun and carefree, and there was not nearly as much traffic as exists today. It was very much the last gasps of the Beach Boys’ ideal view of L.A.: sun, the beach, cars, blondes, etc.’ – Zach Galligan

‘Being outside and being in the sun is great for me.’ – Merritt Patterson

I remembered how scared I was of nuclear weapons, how often I though about them and about the possibility of everything and everyone I knew vanishing in a second in temperatures hotter than the centre of the sun.’ – John Niven

‘I have realized over time that I missed the mark with HyperCard. I grew up in a box-centric culture at Apple.

My blind spot at Apple prevented me from making HyperCard the first Web browser.’ – Bill Atkinson

‘For my band’s debut tour in 2011, we road-tripped across the country in a 15-passenger van. It was the first time I’d left Alabama.

‘In coastal waters rich in runoff, plankton can swarm densely, a million in a drop of water. They color the sea brown and green where deltas form from big rivers, or cities dump their sewage. Tiny yet hugely important, plankton govern how well the sea harvests the sun’s bounty, and so are the foundation of the ocean’s food chain.’ – Gregory Benford

‘If you consistently write ‘The sun set’ rather than ‘The sun sank slowly in the bright western sky,’ your story will move three times as fast. Of course, there are times you want the longer version for atmosphere – but not many. Wordiness not only kills pace; it bores readers.’ – Nancy Kress

‘There must be other races out there, watching our tiny yellow sun glimmering in their unknown field of the sky. Do they desire us as we desire them? – Alice Hastings Bradley’ – Alice Hastings Bradley

And they told me to get a tan, so I spent all morning in the sun, and I was burnt.’ – Christie Brinkley

‘Whenever I wore a bathing suit, I kept a sarong around my hips that went halfway down my thighs. The tops of my thighs are like baby skin.

‘Look for rash guards that come treated, for further sun protection, and never forget your hat!’ – Christie Brinkley

‘A good vacation for me is going to warm weather. Being able to go outside, in the sun, hit the beach, play outside sports. Being active outside. Going swimming, hanging by the pool, having a couple drinks, having a couple of your close buddies around, and just having a blast.’ – Rob Gronkowski

‘The whole thing with contouring is to contour where your natural cheekbone would be and where sun would hit you naturally.’ – Katherine Schwarzenegger

‘I use sunscreen every single day, even if I’m not going outside in the sun, because I’m near a window. I can always get those UV rays on my face, so I always apply sunscreen on my face and neck. It’s like brushing my teeth: I feel weird if I don’t apply sunscreen.’ – Michelle Phan

‘Astronautics, strictly speaking, will be concerned with voyages to other stars. Remarkably enough, to achieve such feats, we might not even have to leave the earth. It would suffice to accelerate the sun itself to a very high speed and let it drag all its planets with it.’ – Fritz Zwicky

‘I will say, nothing in my time in the Senate has more surprised me than senators and House members want to weigh in on everything under the sun, but they do not want to weigh in on a clearly defined constitutional duty to declare war. It just stuns me.’ – Tim Kaine

The yacht first came onto the market in 2011 with a price of $69.5 million.’ – Kayla Tausche

‘Our top plank really is a Green New Deal to transform our economy to a green economy, 100 percent wind, water and sun by the year 2030 – we can do it; this is an emergency, and we must do it – but to use that as an opportunity to put America back to work, to renew our infrastructure, and to basically assure that everyone has a job.’ – Jill Stein

‘I like to go super blonde early in the spring because the sun’s out and it helps keep that tone.’ – Jillian Hervey

‘The one thing I really lucked out on is that all through my teenage years, when my sister was a lifeguard and everyone I knew was out in the sun all day – I was in the theater. Everyone called me Casper because I never had a tan, and everyone else was tan all the time. I think that was the luckiest thing of my life.’ – Jennifer Garner

‘I can definitely benefit from a self-tan, although I cannot say that I am the best at applying it. I’m just not gifted at those kinds of things! But bronzer for sure. Also, just using blush that has that kind of a sun-kissed color as opposed to a bright pink. I would rather have it be really sheer and just right where the sun would hit you.’ – Jennifer Garner

‘Belief is not restricted to a brief affirmation based on imitation; rather, it has degrees and stages of development. It is like a seed growing into a fully grown, fruit-bearing tree; like the sun’s image in a mirror or in a drop of water to its images on the sea’s surface and to the sun itself.’ – Said Nursi

‘I think ‘Holler If Ya Hear Me’ is almost ‘A Raisin in the Sun’ 50 years later, with just a different 20-year-old voice speaking the words. But it’s about access to the American dream and equal lives having equal value in America. It’s still holding a mirror up to us so we can see ourselves.’ – Kenny Leon

‘I’ve directed ‘Raisin in the Sun’ five times. You keep discovering things. You keep on seeing things in the script that you never saw before. That’s what great pieces of art do.’ – Kenny Leon

‘I love ‘Donnie Brasco’ and ‘Days of Thunder,’ so after I did ‘The Skulls,’ I was like, ‘I want to be either an undercover cop, or I want to race cars!’ Universal came to me with a newspaper article about street racing in L.A., and I was like, ‘Are you kidding me? I grew up doing that right off Peoria in Sun Valley.’ They asked if I wanted to do it.’ – Paul Walker

‘The first important role was a Broadway lead I did called ‘The Royal Hunt Of The Sun’ by Peter Shaffer, the guy who did ‘Equus’ and ‘Amadeus.’ Many of the important roles that I got later on were because the guy who was going to hire me was in that audience and had his mind blown. I tend to do that. I blow people’s minds with my performances.’ – David Carradine

‘I love leaving the door open to good ideas. I love the collaborative swirl. I get charged by problem-solving, usually under some kind of stress – the sun is going down, and we have eight minutes, and we have to solve it. Great things come out of it.’ – Ron Howard

‘Because I have no consistent schedule as an actor, it was difficult to develop one as a writer. Ideally, I’d like to write first thing in the morning, every day. But sometimes I’m called to set before the sun comes up, or I’ve worked late the night before, or I’m on a plane.’ – Lauren Graham

‘They used to call me Firefly when I was a little girl, and I always tried to figure out why I was being called a firefly. I was really black, black, black from the sun.

‘Mothers subject their daughters to a level of scrutiny people usually reserve for themselves. A mother’s gaze is like a magnifying glass held between the sun’s rays and kindling.

‘The word ‘revolution’ first brings to mind violent upheavals in the state, but ideas of revolution in science, and of political revolution, are almost coeval.

‘At Roden Crater, I was interested in taking the cultural artifice of art out into the natural surround.

‘I’m working to bring celestial objects like the sun and moon into the spaces that we inhabit.’ – James Turrell

‘All in all, we Muslims have only two holidays, and they’re always getting moved around from season to season, from month to month, because we’re dependent on the moon and not the sun, and unlike the Jews, we haven’t created a leap year, so we have no Adar Bet.’ – Sayed Kashua

‘I say don’t overreact; cool your jets. Focus on things that you can control: your business, your employees’ welfare, your guests, and the quality of the product that you dish up.

‘If a new artist wants to put out some sort of off-the-wall, crazy deep ballad about the sun or whatever, it might be hard to get traction. It’s so much easier for someone established to put out a really heartfelt, deep song and get it played in radio.’ – Thomas Rhett

Conditions take some time. You need some sun; you need some water, but ultimately things start to grow, and are we in that phase or not?’ – Rick Santelli

‘A little bit of sun does wonders! With good protection, of course. Vitamin D is just so good for your hair and your nails. I also love coconut water and coconut oil from Whole Foods. It’s amazing.

‘Did Google know much about media? Or Amazon about commerce? Tesla about cars? SpaceX about rockets? EBay about classifieds? What did I know about computing when I started Sun Microsystems?

‘The ideal job letter starts with a brilliant light. Then we realize that this brilliant light is actually sunlight, shafts of it, pouring through trees onto a thick bed of pine needles.

‘I won two Golden Globes, and there was a long, long period in between the wins.

And they did not take that well.’ – John Lithgow

‘Writing takes gall. I like to think that’s true even for writers with several books under their belt, writers who have been doing it for years.

‘I was born in June, so I like summer, and my favourite part of a sunny day is when the sun sets.’ – Jorja Smith

‘I’m in ‘Gods of Egypt.’ It was CGI on a level that I’ve never encountered. You’re in a blue environment on a mirrored floor because that’s going to be looking like Ra the Sun God’s boat. In the studio, it was like I was in a Robert Lepage theatrical piece.’ – Geoffrey Rush

To moisturize my skin, I could get really sweaty and then just rub it on myself. But how are you going to clean between your teeth without floss?’ – Jonathan Van Ness

‘Nigeria is a difficult place. It is not a country for the faint of heart.
