There's always a part of your nation's history that you haven't been told that... has a powerful impact on how you yourself may behave and may believe.

There's definitely evidence that capitalism at its most ruthless rewards psychopathic behavior. When you look at the worst corners of the American health insurance industry or the sub-prime banking market it really feels like the more psychopathically someone behaves the more it's rewarded.

The way you think the way you behave the way you eat can influence your life by 30 to 50 years.

There seems to be a terrible misunderstanding on the part of a great many people to the effect that when you cease to believe you may cease to behave.

We've been so preoccupied with getting the government to behave in a fair and democratic way we were not able to focus on the private sector where most of the jobs are where most of the wealth and opportunities are.

This is a generation weaned on Watergate and there is no presumption of innocence and no presumption of good intentions. Instead there is a presumption that without relentless scrutiny the government will misbehave.

If there's any message to my work it is ultimately that it's OK to be different that it's good to be different that we should question ourselves before we pass judgment on someone who looks different behaves different talks different is a different color.

Well I'll put it this way: you can certainly say belief in God makes people behave worse. That can be proved beyond a doubt.

Customers don't know what they want. There's plenty of good psychology research that shows that people are not able to accurately predict how they would behave in the future. So asking them 'Would you buy my product if it had these three features?' or 'How would you react if we changed our product this way?' is a waste of time. They don't know.

Freedom means the freedom to behave coarsely basely foolishly.

Israel was born under the British mandate. We learned from the British what democracy means and how it behaves in a time of danger war and terror. We thank Britain for introducing freedom and respect of human rights both in normal and demanding circumstances.

Once I know people know who I am it gives me a lot of licence and freedom to behave in ways I wouldn't normally.

Canadians are very well behaved they don't throw their food.

Working at the Food Bank with my kids is an eye-opener. The face of hunger isn't the bum on the street drinking Sterno it's the working poor. They don't look any different they don't behave any differently they're not really any less educated. They are incredibly less privileged and that's it.

If the markets had behaved badly that would obviously add to people's sense of alarm... but there has been a lot of reassurance coming particularly in the way the Brits handled all this. There seems to be no great fear that something like that is going to happen here.

Change creates fear and technology creates change. Sadly most people don't behave very well when they are afraid.
