When the people perceive that the print media is reporting what they believe is correct, then they tend to read the print media and to follow news on the television.

A lawyer wants to get his client off the hook. And even if he knows the client is guilty, he is going to find ways and means of getting him off the hook.

We can go into the Chinese market, develop the engine, new models of cars. Proton can compete. What is the point of giving the company to foreigners? It will revert to the same situation where foreigners just assemble their cars here. We learn nothing.

The government seems to be set on bankrupting Proton and selling it off, because I think it is regarded as my baby.

Suppose a part of Britain or a part of America was taken away and given to the Jews as Israel. Do you think the Americans are going to sit quietly and say 'Welcome,' and all that? They won't.

MH370 is a Boeing 777 aircraft. It was built and equipped by Boeing. All the communications and GPS equipment must have been installed by Boeing. If they failed or have been disabled, Boeing must know how it can be done.

Quite a few people who are in the media and in control of the big money seem to want to see these Southeast Asian countries - and, in particular, Malaysia - stop trying to catch up with their superiors and to know their place.

I achieved too little result from my principal task, the task of making my race a race that is respected, a race that is honourable, a race that is highly regarded.

We want to defend the rights of Malaysians. We don't want to sell chunks of this country to foreign companies who will develop whole towns.

Jewish stinginess and financial wizardry gained them commercial control of Europe and provoked anti-Semitism, which waxed and waned in Europe throughout the ages.

Why do I want to remove Najib? I should have thought the whole world would know. This man steals money. Not a few hundred dollars, not a few thousand dollars - he stole billions of dollars, and that has been verified by investigations here in Malaysia and the U.S.

You can be a liberal and accept same-sex marriage and all that, but that's your business.

I resigned on my own, and during my time, the country enjoyed a period of great prosperity.

I cannot accept this country being destroyed by selfish people who only think about themselves.

I know I'm not popular with all the people. Remember, I am 'cruel' or a 'pharaoh.' That's all right. In politics, you get called all types of names.

As far as Malaysia is concerned, Singapore is a foreign country.

Looking back now, I realise why, as prime minister of Malaysia, I was described as a dictator. There were many things I did which were typically dictatorial.

When the British ruled Malaysia, they burnt millions of acres of Malaysian forests so that they could plant rubber.

I'm followed everywhere - it has become normal for me.

I'm basically a creature of habit - I do practically the same thing every week, every day of every week: I go to the office, I meet people, I write, I read, and, of course, I give lectures.

When the planes crashed into the World Trade Centre on September 11, 2001, Bush immediately identified what he thought was the true cause. It was because the Muslims were jealous of the freedom of the American people. It was because the Muslims were poor. This exposes a lack of understanding of things on his part.

Australia is not a safe place.

We say less things about Australians than Australians say about us, calling me a dictator, authoritarian government.

We all abhor terrorists, but we have to treat them as dangerous to all of us, not to any one particular country.

We believe that human rights always applies to the majority, who should have its rights protected. When people demonstrate and go to the streets, they deprive the majority from earning a living.

Democracy for people who are not used to it can undermine stability, resulting in war.

I was forced to say, 'I will not censor the Internet.' But I was never convinced.

The Internet is undermining moral values.

I don't believe that you should punish the people of Iraq because you don't like their leader. Saddam Hussein is not being punished. He's fat, and he is eating enough food and living in palaces. But his people are punished by denying them food and medicine.

If India is not too democratic, it will be like China in terms of development.

A heretic can be tolerated. But a heresy cannot.

It would seem the people who want to preserve the Penans' way of life are condemning them to a life full of diseases and a shorter life span.

If Australia wants to be a friend of Asia, it should stop behaving as if it is there to teach us how to run our country.

I want to leave UMNO because it is no longer UMNO. It is a party dedicated to supporting Mr. Najib, to protecting Mr. Najib, to upholding whatever it is that he does, including some of the wrong things that he has done. I cannot be a member of such a party.

My father, Phillip Gilmore, was very talented. He was getting seriously into dancing. He was on 'Soul Train' and won $2,500. But the Bay Area was too small for him. I don't think he had the space to do what he needed to do.

I always hope to be a better person tomorrow than today.

Social media has colonized what was once a sacred space occupied by emptiness: the space reserved for thought and creativity.

I've never seen 'Gone with the Wind.' I don't know if that's something to be embarrassed about, but I know that I should have seen that movie by now.

What I think I learned from working on 'Moonlight' is you see what happens when you persecute people. They fold into themselves.

I have to say goodbye to things in order to take on bigger things that I've always wanted to do.

As an actor, as you grow into where you fit in the industry, you're just trying to find the opportunities, hoping they grow and you get to do more.

In my humble opinion, the ages 22 to about 27 are the most critical years of your adult life. It's your time to gestate in the cocoon of becoming.

There are not enough going into production so that we can tout them. Look at 'Precious'... In order for them to stand out, they have to get made in the first place, and that's just not happening enough.

As young people, you want to see people who in some way look like you to some degree, because it makes it a little easier for you to aspire to take on the qualities of those people.

I think Don Cheadle has always done great work.

I don't really compare any of the characters I play; I try to go into them being very open to what the characters can offer and what I can bring to them and then bring a being to life.

The things that people won't totally accept come in all shapes and sizes and forms, and I can relate to that in my own youth.

I do believe in the potential of like-minded people coming together.

I'm not shy about trying to find what truth there is in any genre, whether that be an action piece, a sci-fi piece, a small indie film, or a play. I'm open to it all.

There are instances where you're in a space with someone who has been extraordinarily successful, and they don't necessarily connect with you as another person. You can be a prop for them to deliver their stuff, and you're just another element in the scene.
