Michael Franti

I took a trip in 2004, a year after the war started in Iraq. I played music on the streets of Baghdad for Iraqi civilians.

Dexter Fletcher

I love walking along Leiths waterfront and wandering around some of New Towns beautiful streets and squares, with their gorgeous Georgian architecture.

I wouldn't call it looting. What I have seen is desperate people kind of wandering around here in downtown Gulfport. There are a lot of police here in Gulfport, so you can't get away with looting. But I have seen people picking stuff up from the wreckage. I saw a man with two bottles of olive oil. He was hoping to try to cook something up. He says he has no water. He doesn't really have much of a place to go. So there are a lot of people just desperately in need.

Rob Manuel

Look at the world of both film and indie games, and you'll find a startling similarity between the two when it comes to creating the perfect horror story.

Basically, I've been wandering around without an advocate for a really long time and I think that's a lot of the reason why things haven't happened that probably would have happened. I just needed someone to present opportunities and work out the deals for me.

Marshall Curry

I find often I'm wandering around the park with my kids, and I notice something, and I think, 'Oh, I could come up with a clever Facebook post about that.' It's like, 'Wait a minute - that's not what I should be thinking. I should be present in the moment with my kids.'

John Bell

When I was mixing the album I was just cheering it on, ... I was actually getting to put myself in a position of observation of listening to the band, watching it, experiencing it probably closer to a fan thing than I've ever had the ability to do, or that I've ever let myself do. And I was just like, yeah, George is getting it on. And that's what you want for anybody's performance.

Dan Harmon

When I was a kid I never knew the difference between a sitcom and a drama. I just knew what my parents were watching and what was making them happy.

Jill Soloway

We grew up watching Woody Allen and Albert Brooks movies, and we see this neurotic, annoying, unlikeable male at the center of a story, and people root for him anyway. I think that's really what we have been craving as women is the hero who doesn't look perfect and doesn't act perfectly.

Charles Koppelman

We grew up watching gangster movies. We wanted to make a film that people would quote to each other like 'Diner' and 'Godfather,'
