We have to realize only in communication in real knowledge in real reaching out can there be an understanding that there's humanity everywhere and that's what I'm trying to do.

The thing that we are trying to do at facebook is just help people connect and communicate more efficiently.

I'd be happy to be taken as a woman - and that's what I was initially trying to do when I started throwing on dresses and stuff. But that wasn't going to happen because everyone kept calling me sir. So I thought I'd change the method and just start wearing what I wanted to wear.

So I think it's - what was important to me is that I found that I can't change the fact that people already have made an opinion about me. But I don't think that should stop me from trying to correct some of the misperceptions that are out there.

I get heartfelt thanks from all kinds of people. Today I heard from a waitress in Georgia who has lost her job and is trying to figure out how her local bank can change the terms on her credit card and I heard from a physicist at a major research university who wants to explain a better theory of financial stress tests.

I'm trying to change the culture in New York City that's hard enough!

Girls are taught to sing high and pretty like Antony not low and from the guts like Nina Simone. But we're slowly trying to change that. There are so many things we're not told growing up and it's our true feminist responsibility to take the truth to the people who need to hear it.

I just like food too much and I don't want to change. I spent so much of childhood trying to change and I just got sick of it... I don't want to look like Britney Spears I just don't want to. She's hideous.

We're not trying to change the world just music.

Life has got a habit of not standing hitched. You got to ride it like you find it. You got to change with it. If a day goes by that don't change some of your old notions for new ones that is just about like trying to milk a dead cow.

Today in America we are trying to prepare students for a high tech world of constant change but we are doing so by putting them through a school system designed in the early 20th Century that has not seen substantial change in 30 years.

I am not trying to change the world. I am just offering my gift that God gave me and if somebody is moved by it that's beautiful.

Often times when you face such an overwhelming challenge as global climate change it can be somewhat daunting - it's kind of like trying to lose weight which I know something about.

I enjoy trying to develop a car and Mercedes are one of the biggest car manufacturers in the world.

Yes sir a patrol car came and took me down to a station where they were trying to develop films but they hadn't got the facilities to develop colored film.

Being an actress is similar to trying to fit in with the popular kids in high school. You're expected to drive the right car wear the right clothes and say the right things.

I can't find my car keys in the morning. Trying to get out of my house is a nightmare. 'Where's my wallet? Where are my keys? I have to go find a missing person.'

Now having said that I realize that releasing a film in the real world is like trying to get General Motors to release a handmade car.

My first car was an '84 Ford Taurus. It caught on fire from me trying to change the fuel pump so that wasn't good at all. Dried leaves on the ground while I was trying to change the fuel pump. Don't do that. Do it on concrete.

I was 16 years old driving to LA and sleeping in my car just trying to make it happen.

My work is more about trying to ask good questions and not trying to come up with big shows. Every fashion company is doing that every car company is doing that.

Life's too short when you find yourself sitting in a car for four hours every day trying to get from East L.A. to West L.A. to Hollywood and then back to East L.A.

To understand the intensity of driving an F1 car you have to be in it. When you're driving a 750hp machine at 200mph the noise and the vibrations are incredible. The G-force when you take big corners is like someone trying to rip your head off. You hit the brakes and it feels as if the skin is being pulled off your body.

I am endlessly busy bringing up five young kids and trying to keep up with the three older ones. I still spend most of my life driving car pools.
