I`ve been doing serious acting for as long as I`ve been working, but sadly, most Asians don`t attend plays or tune into what they consider arty dramas, but I know they`ll watch Bride & Prejudice (2004). It`s not exactly serious acting, but at least I won`t be seen as the porn star that some people think I am!
- Indira VarmaMore Asians need to be on television as a positive role model.
- Kiana TomThe impact is presumably larger than the Asians` on global interest rates.
- David RobinsonYou remember all those phrases about how "these people" - Asians - don`t value human life like we do. Well if you spend any time around them, you discover that they love their children just as much as we love ours. That is certainly true of the Vietnamese.
- Neil SheehanA lot of Republicans are white Christians, but the Republican Party is reaching out to Hispanics, and reaching out to blacks, and reaching out to Asians.
- Susan EstrichWe don`t necessarily think that we are the best race. Asians, for example, are generally smarter than us. They score higher on tests. However, white people are more capable and live better lives. We believe the white population is shrinking, and that we`re losing autonomy. We`ve already lost it here in the state of California. The Mexicans are the plurality here, and it`s disappointing to see the majority of a population going to a race that is clearly inferior to almost all other races.
- April GaedeI believe we are in danger of being swamped by Asians.
- Amy CollinsIt`s not a big holiday for Asians.
- Annette Gonzales TaylorL.A. draws highly skilled Asians and San Francisco draws highly skilled gays, but D.C. draws highly skilled everybody -- gays, Latins, Asians, Africans, scientists and so on, ... The trick will be to avoid pricing ourselves out of that creativity.
- Ayman Abdel NourAsians are tired of waiting for Washington to start an Asian process. That`s what this summit shows. In 1990 our (US) mental map of Europe changed drastically (when the Berlin Wall fell). But that has not happened since 1945 in the Pacific.
