“When you play the young girl a lot, you can be in the movie a lot and have nothing to do.” Quote by Rachel Blanchard
“It's amazing to see there aren't boundaries around gender. My menswear business has changed over the years as far as what men are daring to wear. And women, too. Men wanted to look tough, but now they realize you don't have to look like your granddad or dad. You can show a more feminine side.” MenRealizingChangedLike YouDadToughGenderBoundariesFeminineDaring Author:Olivier Rousteing
“What makes me sad in fashion is that everyone is looking for trends. A trend is one thing. Timeless is another. In 20 years, I've seen so many trends. It makes me sad when people go for the trend versus quality or vision. Or when people wear something so basic just to make sure they're considered cool, like a white t-shirt.” PeopleQualityVisionFashionTimeless Author:Olivier Rousteing
“It is imperative to use forceful measures to force the regime to respect human rights.” Human Rights Author:Burhan Ghalioun
“The current relationship between Syria and Iran is abnormal. It is unprecedented in Syria's foreign policy history. A new Syria will be an indispensable part of the Arab League and it will work on improving the role of the Arab League and the role of Arab states regionally, specifically because they took a historic and unprecedented decision to back the Syrian people.” PeopleDecisionPolicyLeagueForeign PolicySyriaHistoric Author:Burhan Ghalioun
“I was never apposed or sought out nudity, but it was necessary in the Where the Truth Lies. If they didn't have the nudity, but they still had the scenes - because sex is used as a power tool in this movie - I feel it would have felt self conscious and I think the scene is meant for you to feel uncomfortable.” ThinkingLyingSceneConsciousUncomfortableSelf ConsciousNudity Author:Rachel Blanchard
“Where the Truth Lies rating has a lot more to do with the political climate in America today than it does with the film. It wouldn't have had this rating five years ago. There's nothing graphic in this film on screen; you can look at it, but you won't be able to see it, it's not there. There's nothing graphic sexually that's not about the story telling.” TodayFilmPoliticalLyingGraphicSexually Author:Rachel Blanchard
“Everyone has scenes with the snakes in Where the Truth Lies. There was a 20-foot python that was a little scary, but they were all non-venomous so... I was more nervous with the snakes than the nudity.” LyingSceneScaryNervousNudity Author:Rachel Blanchard
“Let us be clear: there are no Salafist armed groups in Syria. Those carrying arms are mostly members of the dissident army. The armed groups are defected soldiers. But they are not all organized. After they defect, they often disappear into different neighborhoods as they struggle for their safety. They need salaries, they need guarantees for protection, they need livelihoods. That is the way everyone will be brought together.” DifferentTogetherStruggleArmySafetySoldierProtectionDisappearNeighborhoodSyria Author:Burhan Ghalioun
“Syrians have a national identity beyond the sectarian divide. Syria's national identity would be weaker and poorer if it didn't have this beautiful pluralism between Arabs, Kurds, and sects.” BeautifulIdentity Author:Burhan Ghalioun
“Being someone who prays or fasts doesn't mean you want an Islamic state. Islam in the form of the Iranian state has been defeated in the Arab world. All Islamist movements now want to copy the Turkish model.” WorldMeanPrayingIslamIslamicDefeatedIranianTurkish Author:Burhan Ghalioun
