Acting isn't for me. I don't like being told what to do. I'm more interested in set design more visually driven.

We opened a design center in the South of England last year as part of our strategy for being close to our customers and developing innovative products for exciting new markets.

For two years nobody talked about anything other than the name arrangement. There was no fund-raising and no progress being made on construction and design.

Being in the design industry I've tended to meet more people who are affected by HIV and AIDS.

Websites are kind of useless. There's so much great web content and design out there but the ways in which they are being experienced are not being maximized.

In regards to being a fashion aficionado there's a certain amount of taking yourself seriously in the professional world. The self-effacing person can't completely go down the serious road. But I design and love when things are beautiful.

Martha Stewart is extremely talented. Her designs are picture perfect. Our philosophy is life is messy and rather than being afraid of those messes we design products that work the way we live.

Ever since I was young I loved making things and being part of the design process.

The only thing Martha and I have in common is that we both used to model. Martha Stewart is extremely talented. Her designs are picture perfect. Our philosophy is life is messy and rather than being afraid of those messes we design products that work the way we live.

As all human beings are in my view creatures of God's design we must respect all other human beings. That does not mean I have to agree with their choices or agree with their opinions but indeed I respect them as human beings.

Design is directed toward human beings. To design is to solve human problems by identifying them and executing the best solution.

I design for the woman who loves being a woman.

This is what I like about being a designer: You can't really get it until you see it.

When we are dealing with death we are constantly being dragged down by the event: Humor diverts our attention and lifts our sagging spirits.

The death penalty is being applied in the United States as a fatal lottery.

There are some people who walk into a room and they oxygenate it by their very being there's fresh air. Then there are those who come in with the smell of death and they suck the life out.

The American people are not just being taxed to death they're being taxed after death. But no one should have to sell the life's work of a parent or a loved one just to pay the federal government.

The elimination of the fear of death transforms the individual's way of being in the world.

I believe in the institution of marriage. Of course being a Mormon we believe in eternity rather than just till death do us part. If you really try hard if you make it work it's blissful. But I also know a marriage that isn't working can be painful.

I wouldn't feel satisfied being on set every day doing a romantic comedy - I'd be bored to death.

'Hamlet' is one of the most dangerous things ever set down on paper. All the big unknowable questions like what it is to be a human being the difference between sanity and insanity the meaning of life and death what's real and not real. All these subjects can literally drive you mad.

The death of anti-gay hate speech is no doubt being hastened by the head-spinning speed with which gays as a group - to say nothing of gay marriage - are becoming an unremarkable and even quite traditional parts of American life.

But the issue is not only life and death but our existence before God and our being judged by him. All of us were sinners before him and worthy of condemnation.

When I did 'Bumble-ardy ' I was so intensely aware of death. Eugene my friend and partner was dying here in the house when I did 'Bumble-ardy'. I did 'Bumble-ardy' to save myself. I did not want to die with him. I wanted to live as any human being does.
