That was the day I began cutting classes and returning to TV tapings it ultimately led to a friendship with Johnny O and an increasing fascination and respect for what he did.

I am not an anti to anything which will bring freedom to my class.

Jazz stands for freedom. It's supposed to be the voice of freedom: Get out there and improvise and take chances and don't be a perfectionist - leave that to the classical musicians.

If they want to hang me let them. And on the scaffold I will shout Freedom for the working class!

The message of Passover remains as powerful as ever. Freedom is won not on the battlefield but in the classroom and the home. Teach your children the history of freedom if you want them never to lose it.

The cause of freedom is not the cause of a race or a sect a party or a class-it is the cause of human kind the very birthright of humanity.

I had spent many years pursuing excellence because that is what classical music is all about... Now it was dedicated to freedom and that was far more important.

And let me make this very clear - unlike President Obama I will not raise taxes on the middle class. As president I will protect the sanctity of life. I will honor the institution of marriage. And I will guarantee America's first liberty: the freedom of religion.

America is a such a melting pot I'm not sure if roast chicken is the classic comfort food for everybody.

This June I'll travel once again to the Food and Wine Magazine Classic in Aspen Colorado. For many years my dear friend Julia Child and I have teamed up to teach classes together at the event for the past seven years my daughter Claudine has been my cooking partner on stage.

You have to know the classics if you want to cook modern food.

I love doing demonstrations. I think to be a great chef you have to be a great teacher. I love doing classes with people who love food and enjoy food bringing them all around one table so to speak.

I love inventive food but I want the classic dishes to taste like how I remember them. I get a little bummed out when there is too much fancy stuff going on and it doesn't resemble the original dish at all.

The class of citizens who provide at once their own food and their own raiment may be viewed as the most truly independent and happy.

If you're using first-class land for biofuels then you're competing with the growing of food. And so you're actually spiking food prices by moving energy production into agriculture.

Most vegetarians look so much like the food they eat that they can be classified as cannibals.

I do a one-hour workout called Drenched a cardio-boxing fitness routine Monday through Friday. There are usually between twenty-five and fifty people there - everyone from stay-at-home moms and professional martial artists to teenagers and seniors. They play great dance music. When I can I take two classes back-to-back.

I recommend that people try new stuff or take new fitness classes all the time. It's important to mix up your routine not only for your body but also for your mental state.

The confidence is really driven by the woman - whether she can have the confidence that there will be enough earning or income to finance all the domestic spending - but also by the middle-income class which for many Asian countries has become the growth power for the economy.

I had some of the students in my finance class actually do some empirical work on capital structures to see if we could find any obvious patterns in the data but we couldn't see any.

I don't buy into any of that hogwash. They put that out to sell tickets. It's just a classic horror movie with the Greek drama formula of good versus evil and lots of fear.

I took a Fear of Flying class and I always missed the class because I was always flying.

I've wanted to perform my entire life. I found a paper I wrote in kindergarten class about what I wanted to be when I grew up - and I wrote 'a famous singer!'

I'm just a public-schoolboy. I've got a degree. I'm from a middle-class family in Devon. I've got no story.
