I want there to be a level of respect between everybody.

I think I've earned a certain level of respect based on my accomplishments and my consistency.

At the time of Polaroid - and I did a couple of other commercials just before I stopped doing that stuff - at that point I was at the level where they respect you and your opinion and all that sort of thing.

There is overwhelming evidence that the higher the level of self-esteem the more likely one will be to treat others with respect kindness and generosity.

Every fundamentalist movement I've studied in Judaism Christianity and Islam is convinced at some gut visceral level that secular liberal society wants to wipe out religion.

I am looking for a character that connects to me on some level. It has to be about something it has to have depth to it and it has to be about something. The story of the character and their relationship with the people and places around them appeal to me and are what I look for.

Well we have a good working relationship with Microsoft at the development level. But let's not kid ourselves this is a company with enormous resources and talented people and there is a certain pride that comes along with that for them and for us.

I have a great relationship with animals and with children. I get to their level. I try to see the way a child looks at the world it's hugely different.

For me the highest level of sexual excitement is in a monogamous relationship.

I shoot people in a way that makes the audience feel equal to them. And it's hard to express and it's hard to execute but I think it works on every level - the choice of the material the choice of the actor my relationship with the actor and so on.

It seems I have a hard time being attracted to someone unless I respect what they do on some level. Otherwise I would feel disdain for them. Which is not always pleasant in a relationship. Sometimes it's fun though.

My parents had this relationship that was really terrifying. I mean the level of hatred that they had and the level of physical abuse - my mother would beat up my father basically - and I think I was drawn to images on television that were bright and reflective.

Every relationship has its own language. It takes a long time to evolve and read one another. Just as it's true for people it's also true on a national or cultural level.

This was a mutual relationship mutual on all levels right from the way it started and all the way through. I don't accept that he had to completely desecrate my character.

I truly believe that we have infinite levels of power that we don't even know are available to us.

People who avoid the brick walls - all power to ya but we all have to hit them sometimes in order to push through to the next level to evolve.

I have nothing to lose and think that it's a positive thing that I am young and playing on a good level.

It's not that I'm universally loved. We know I'm not in New Jersey. But what they do say in New Jersey is 'We like him and we think he's telling us the truth.' I think we need to have that type of politics on the national level.

With participation in politics so low at the moment I think Christians should ensure their views are represented at all levels and not leave it to others.

When I first started working in politics as a junior aide on Walter Mondale's 1984 presidential campaign it never occurred to me that I would one day work in the White House. There were plenty of women among the volunteers who stuffed envelopes and walked precincts. But there were fewer and fewer on each successive level of influence and access.

Let me read you some of my poetry. My poetry just takes me to another level.

Poetry should be able to reach everybody and it should be able to appeal to all levels of understanding.

I will work to bring peace to everyone - whatever economic level - as long as you are Haitian.

When resources are degraded we start competing for them whether it is at the local level in Kenya where we had tribal clashes over land and water or at the global level where we are fighting over water oil and minerals. So one way to promote peace is to promote sustainable management and equitable distribution of resources.
