Our world faces a true planetary emergency. I know the phrase sounds shrill and I know it's a challenge to the moral imagination.

Journey with me to a true commitment to our environment. Journey with me to the serenity of leaving to our children a planet in equilibrium.

If you take any world problem any issue on the planet the solution to that problem certainly includes education. In education the roadblock is the laptop.

It is just called Continuing Legal Education. You can go to lectures you can even listen to tapes on airplanes - they want you to stay current. So you do have to stay current to maintain your license even if you are not practicing.

Cutting the deficit by gutting our investments in innovation and education is like lightening an overloaded airplane by removing its engine. It may make you feel like you're flying high at first but it won't take long before you feel the impact.

My childhood dreams were focused on being part of the effort to make humanity a multiplanetary species.

You have many years ahead of you to create the dreams that we can't even imagine dreaming. You have done more for the collective unconscious of this planet than you will ever know.

What is a television apparatus to man who has only to shut his eyes to see the most inaccessible regions of the seen and the never seen who has only to imagine in order to pierce through walls and cause all the planetary Baghdads of his dreams to rise from the dust.

I am a dreamer. Seriously I'm living on another planet.

My goal? To test out every diet and exercise regimen on planet earth and figure out which work best. I sweated I cooked I learned to pole dance. In the end I lost weight lowered my cholesterol and doubled my energy level. I feel better than I ever have.

Everything that is necessary is also easy. You just have to accept it. And the most necessary the most natural matter on this planet is death.

My mother was the sweetest lady who ever lived on this planet but if you tried to tell her that Jesus wasn't a Christian she would stomp you to death.

If any foreign minister begins to defend to the death a 'peace conference ' you can be sure his government has already placed its orders for new battleships and airplanes.

My dad served in two wars has been flying airplanes for 60 years now. He was certainly quite an inspiration.

Dad went to Canada to learn how to fly with the Royal Canadian Air Force. He took me on my first airplane ride where I could have a hand on the stick.

The moment my doctor told me I went silent. My mum and dad were with me then we all went to pieces. I was saying No I've got my flight to Sydney in two hours. I'm getting on a plane.

The founder of the Mona Foundation actually knew my dad for years and the more I learned about it the more I realized I really found the perfect charity. It sponsors schools and educational initiatives all over the planet.

Most of man's problems upon this planet in the long history of the race have been met and solved either partially or as a whole by experiment based on common sense and carried out with courage.

Obama wants to be thought of as the president who freed us from foreign oil. But if he doesn't show some political courage he may well be remembered as the president who cooked the planet.

I never think of myself as any kind of sex symbol but I get letters from all over all sorts. It's really cool. I get a lot from inmates which is kind of scary. But the best was the guy who wanted to send me a plane ticket to fly me to his prom.

From computers to information technology to airplanes it has been America's unique blend of republican government and free-market capitalism that has allowed us to surpass all other nations in history.

Computers like automobiles and airplanes do only what people tell them to do.

If we ever start communicating with living creatures from other planets the number one priority is how are you going to communicate information? Even between different cultures here on Earth you get into communication problems.

The Howard Hughes I knew began to change after his plane crash in 1941.
