Before we had the kids my husband and I were traveling a lot and working and really enjoying our lives and each other. We both love the theater and books and travel and so we were really having a lot of fun.

I would love to travel around the world working for a travel company taking students abroad on cultural immersion trips.

To get away from one's working environment is in a sense to get away from one's self and this is often the chief advantage of travel and change.

When I haven't been working I've tried to travel a lot.

I travel around the world constantly promoting my projects and endorsing products. Yes I do get paid to go to parties in fact I'm the person who started the whole trend of paid appearances. But when you see me at a party I'm always working or promoting something.

I really had no great love for shoes. I was a working First Lady I was always in canvas shoes. I did nurture the shoes industry of the Philippines and so every time there was a shoe fair I would receive a pair of shoes as a token of gratitude.

I keep working because I learn something new all the time.

The finest workers in stone are not copper or steel tools but the gentle touches of air and water working at their leisure with a liberal allowance of time.

Well I'm working all the time to stay out of trouble!

Working on 'Gossip Girl' was a fantastic experience. It was my first real gig and I'm thankful for it - I got to learn a lot. I'm glad I got to explore getting comfortable in my own shoes in the background on a show like 'Gossip Girl.'

Look if I ever stop being grateful for gigs I just need to stop. Because this business is... you know it's just so kind of job-to-job and the fact that I've continued working... I'm just incredibly thankful for it. And I never ever take it for granted.

I feel like I still am struggling in a lot of different ways. I still have to fight for certain things. Certain jobs. At least I'm working and I'm thankful for that.

But I don't think we'll go there until we go back to the moon and develop a technology base for living and working and transporting ourselves through space.

Social networking technology didn't really exist until 2004-2005. I had the idea to use this technology to bridge this gap between a general interest in addressing social issues and the practical action.

The movie industry is committed to working with the technology sector to find innovative new ways to deliver entertainment to consumers.

We are just fanatics about using the technology to make it all wonderful. We laughed at the fact that we were having such a great time working this way.

Our markets have not achieved their great successes as a result of government fiat but rather through efforts of competing interests working to meet the demands of investors and to fulfill the promises posed by advancing technology.

Working in Hollywood it's clear the more money you have the more technology you can get. So you can build a whole Japanese set. Only in Hollywood!

My first job after college was at Magic Quest an educational software startup company where I was responsible for writing the content. I found that job somewhat accidentally but after working there a few weeks and loving my job I decided to pursue a career in technology.

For over 15 years through the clean coal programs of the Department of Energy the Federal Government has been a solid partner working jointly with private companies and the states to develop and demonstrate a new generation of environmentally clean technology using coal.

In the earliest days this was a project I worked on with great passion because I wanted to solve the Defense Department's problem: it did not want proprietary networking and it didn't want to be confined to a single network technology.

Which European leader today would not relish the wonder-working powers of a Moses? Budget deficit? Unpopular cuts? How about just a little miracle an overnight increase in gold reserves a new oil field or the next world-changing communications technology? Surely that's not too much to ask.

My mother was a teacher my father was a community organizer. I come from a working class background.

I don't find acting to be a particularly noble way to make a living. I'm not saving anybody's life I'm not a teacher I'm not working for UNICEF. I don't think I'm some big deal.
