I've had the good fortune to have a much more diverse life than most people would professional sports and television and news and movies.

I was a total athlete. I loved sports but when I realized I wasn't going to be a professional athlete I realized I wanted to be in movies.

Writing is the only profession where no one considers you ridiculous if you earn no money.

Money isn't a major motivating force in my life. Nor is my profession. There are other things that I care more about than being an actor.

Money is not a motivating factor. Money doesn't thrill me or make me play better because there are benefits to being wealthy. I'm just happy with a ball at my feet. My motivation comes from playing the game I love. If I wasn't paid to be a professional footballer I would willingly play for nothing.

I've always been a writer because I've always been a student. My mom's a retired professor so I come from a very academic background. I love writing you know?

My mom is like this hard-core liberal feminist. She's a professor in Boston and she's been teaching women's studies for 30 years and international politics.

My mom was a teacher - I have the greatest respect for the profession - we need great teachers - not poor or mediocre ones.

All men profess honesty as long as they can. To believe all men honest would be folly. To believe none so is something worse.

I love being a woman and I was not one of these women who rose through professional life by wearing men's clothes or looking masculine. I loved wearing bright colors and being who I am.

The integrity of men is to be measured by their conduct not by their professions.

Almost all the noblest things that have been achieved in the world have been achieved by poor men poor scholars poor professional men poor artisans and artists poor philosophers poets and men of genius.

Women must tell men always that they are the strong ones. They are the big the strong the wonderful. In truth women are the strong ones. It is just my opinion I am not a professor.

There are three subjects on which the knowledge of the medical profession in general is woefully weak they are manners morals and medicine.

Drug abuse is a medical disease that requires medical professionals.

As a former professional patient advocate I believe prescription drugs are an essential part of high-quality medical treatment and I supported enactment of the Medicare Prescription Drug and Modernization Act.

Oh there are lots of doctors and medical professionals out there who buy my devices at whole sale price.
