When you're a kid you see your parents reading the newspaper and you're like 'God why are they reading the newspaper?' When you're young you're not reading the newspaper. But there comes a time in your life when the newspaper's cool.

When I'm not writing or tweaking my computer I do embroidery. When I'm not plunging into the past tweaking or embroidering I'm reading books about history computers or embroidery.

Reading computer manuals without the hardware is as frustrating as reading manuals without the software.

I had a very insightful friend who warned me back when I stopped reading scripts 'It's easier to change directions while you're still moving.' If you stop it's harder to get started again. I still don't think I made the wrong decision but he was right.

I hope everyone that is reading this is having a really good day. And if you are not just know that in every new minute that passes you have an opportunity to change that.

I don't want to be in my car all day. I love getting up in the morning in Venice and walking my dogs down to the cafe to get my tea and then perhaps going to a bookstore and sitting and reading then walking to the beach.

I am so sick of reading about another car bomb another suicide bomber another 10 20 30 70 100 people dead in a day both Americans and Iraqis.

Reading is not a duty and has consequently no business to be made disagreeable.

The leverage and influence social media gives citizens are rapidly spreading into the business world.

Any time women come together with a collective intention it's a powerful thing. Whether it's sitting down making a quilt in a kitchen preparing a meal in a club reading the same book or around the table playing cards or planning a birthday party when women come together with a collective intention magic happens.

Since graduation I have measured time in 4-by-5-inch pieces of paper four days on the left and three on the right. Every social engagement interview reading flight doctor's appointment birthday and dry-cleaning reminder has been handwritten between metal loops.

The best advice I ever got was that knowledge is power and to keep reading.

Reading - the best state yet to keep absolute loneliness at bay.

I've just finished reading a book about the brilliant Margaret Rutherford. She wasn't a beauty but inside she was absolutely blazing and passionate about her work. She's one of those life-affirming characters.

Beauty can't amuse you but brainwork - reading writing thinking - can.

I was always reading those beauty magazines and wanting to become this unattainable thing.

The books that help you most are those which make you think that most. The hardest way of learning is that of easy reading but a great book that comes from a great thinker is a ship of thought deep freighted with truth and beauty.

The attitude of the actor is his interpretation of what he reads and the written word is what creates the role in the actor's mind and I guess in reading the things that were given to me I reacted as you guys saw me you know.

Reading is an art form and every man can be an artist.

He has only half learned the art of reading who has not added to it the more refined art of skipping and skimming.

In fact in many ways my mother was quite hippy-dippy serving macrobiotic food and reading 'Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.'

I love doing normal things - movies shopping going out with friends writing reading taking hot bubble baths - that's a big one for relaxation. I also love to go to art and history museums.

The other day I was reading a blog and I linked over to Streisand's Web site and it was amazing politically. She's so insightful and incisive. And she also says whatever she wants.

I mean we've built a lot of products that we think are good and will help people share photos and share videos and write messages to each other. But it's really all about how people are spreading Facebook around the world in all these different countries. And that's what's so amazing about the scale that it's at today.
