“Scientific innovations continually provide us with new means of analyzing the finds.”

“Along the borders to Ethiopia and Somalia, anarchy reigns, the police and military have retreated quite some distance.”

“To investigate the history of man's development, the most important finds are, of course, hominid fossils.”

“The elephants were being slaughtered in masses. Some were even killed in the vicinity of big tourist hotels.”

“I, too, am convinced that our ancestors came from Africa.”

“One should not forget that there are very few surviving items from this period, often just single, small bones, a tooth, a sliver of the skull. Categorizing these pieces can be very difficult.”

“So I never spend a lot of time analyzing why people respond to my work. But I think that it's just the joy, a passion for life, that I think has always been in my characters. Beyond that, I'm just grateful for it.”

“If employees need to stay late in order to curry favor with the boss, what motivation do they have to get work done during normal business hours? After all, they can put in the requisite 'face time' whether they are surfing the Internet or analyzing customer data.”

“I'm going to make mistakes, I just have to be able to learn from them as quickly as possible. To learn faster, I watch film of myself and other good point guards, and then breaking down my mistakes and really analyzing them and seeing where I could have made better decisions.”

“Alfred Hitchcock once told me, when I was analyzing a lot of things about his pictures, 'Clint, you must remember, it's only a movie.'”

“I think young people are the most creative and the coolest - people that we should be learning from. Even when I'm at a party, I'm analyzing it and thinking about it in the context of how I would write about it. That side of me never switches off.”
