I believe in all the qualities of being a liberal.

Hats off to starting a franchise younger than we all did in 'Twilight' and keeping your cool. The 'Harry Potter' men and women had, what, a 10-year run?

I like it now when kids stare at me, because it is a way of starting a dialogue. And it is far better than them not looking at you at all. Nothing is worse than not being seen.

I live intimately with my characters before starting a book. I cut out pictures of them for my wall. I do time lines for each major character and a time line for the entire novel: What is going on in the world as my characters struggle with their problems?

The bad thing about young people starting a company is that sometimes they do it for the wrong reasons or because they have the wrong skill set, but the good thing is that they don't have any of the old paradigms baked into them, so they have a lot of the bright new ideas that are harder to come by as you get older.

How you start the movie is critical. And how often you feel that there's no reason for how it's starting.

Starting in the 1970s, American cars started to lose market share to foreign cars. It was clear what was happening - these better-made foreign car companies were encroaching on the U.S., and the U.S. car makers had less than half of their own country's market.

A good maxim allows you to have the last word without even starting a conversation.

I can't go into a bar anywhere without someone starting to play 'the Entertainer'.

There are certain things producers ask you to do, and when I was starting out, I said yes to everything. I was asked, for 'Quo Vadis,' to drive a chariot. I said, 'Oh yes. I'm licenced for all vehicles.' Two days later, I was sitting in this dustbin with two very aggressive horses. I didn't stay in it for long.

I love 'Sunday in the Park with George.' I saw that when I was just, just starting theater school, and I remember singing 'Finishing the Hat' or at least reading the lyrics to 'Finishing the Hat' and other songs from 'Sunday in the Park with George' to my mom to try to explain why I wanted to be an artist.

I kept starting 'Anansi Boys' as a movie and stopping, and eventually wrote the novel and was happy.

Possibly because I did start off as a journalist, my starting point has always been that you've got to keep an audience with you. Whatever you're doing, you always want a script to be a page-turner. It's very important never, ever, to feel above that.

The outcome of the game is something that, as a starting pitcher, is very hard to control. Just worry about making pitches. And leave it at that.

We are a team that truly embodies what team is about. We're unselfish. We all got here by doing the right things and playing the right way. I think people are starting to recognize that.

We are a team that is still trying to find its identity. We are trying to find the right people to put in the right places with the right combination of people that will help us the most, but we are starting to figure that out I believe.

There are days the offensive line looks like they're putting it together. At times we see the light at the end of the tunnel. They're starting to respond, but they've got to grow up fast.

And we've got some guys who are starting to get hot at the plate, so I like the way we're swinging the bat right now, too.

There are some good things starting to happen. We know what to do and we'll get to work on it.

We strengthened our leadership position in key segments such as minivans and large cars with our sales in January. Our car business is up 20 percent, and our LX products are up 62 percent. The Dodge Caliber begins production today and gives us a strong entry into the small car segment with an attractive price starting at $13,985. We are now a full-time car player.

We're in a situation now where we're starting to get a little healthier and that's light at the end of the tunnel. The group that we have is really making a great effort to do what they can to help us win. Right now, win or lose, I know our fans know what's really important to them and that's the energy level and the unselfishness on the court. We had that for the last six or seven games and that's something we have to build on.

We're in a phase where Chinese companies are beginning to think with a longer-term perspective. People are starting to see that operating in a good, ethical and well-mannered way helps you survive in the long term.

We started out strong at the beginning of this year then went on a string of bad runs starting with Infineon. That really hurt us in the points. But Bob (Osborne, crew chief) and the entire team held their heads up and kept fighting and together we got back into the 'Chase'. Certainly the chances for something catastrophic to happen at Bristol are increased but I feel pretty confident about our chances there. If we can come away with a solid finish there, I think we have a good chance at making the 'Chase'.

We started out slow again. Our last three games we've scored four, four and eight points in the first quarter. I don't know why we're starting out so flat. We have to come out stronger. We played great defense though and you can't say enough about that.

We started off as a very individualistic program where everybody was doing their own thing, but we've come a long way and we're starting to play as a team. I'm very proud of them.

When you've got a Division I rival this close, you want to beat them, and unfortunately we haven't been able to do that much. But I wasn't too displeased with this game because it was a good game. Both starting pitchers did very well, and we killed ourselves with a couple of key errors. We don't make those errors and it's a 0-0 game.

When you think about it, we ended the game basically with our starting five from last year. So that's a great luxury to have. That just shows the depth of the team, the experience of the team.

There is no one better to beat than John Force because when you beat him you beat the best, ... I've won a lot of races before, but never as a team owner. I think it's just starting to sink in. I put a lot of pressure on the guys after Indy, and for them, they worked great this weekend in the heat, under the gun, they pulled through and they got it done. I appreciate that because it proved to me that they're tough, they're strong and they're with me.
