(in Asiana magazine, August 2004, about Aishwarya Rai) She`s always working, if she isn`t acting she`s doing a dance show or singing at some billionaire`s party or attending some gala premiere. I wanted to shake her and scream, "Call this a life? Take a holiday for God`s sake!" But she surrounds herself with yes-men who treat her like a goddess - she`s in a bubble and if she`s happy I guess that`s cool.
- Indira VarmaAbout the 2004 Olympics opening ceremony: "I am incredibly honoured to have been asked to write a song and sing it at the Olympics. The song is written from the point of view of the ocean that surrounds all the land and watches over the humans to see how they are doing after millions of years of evolution. It sees no borders, different races or religion which has always been at the core of these games."
- BjörkCreation, to me, is to try to orchestrate the universe to understand what surrounds us. Even if, to accomplish that, we use all sorts of stratagems which in the end prove completely incapable of staving off chaos.
- Peter GreenawayWhen you`re in love you never really know whether your elation comes from the qualities of the one you love, or if it attributes them to her; whether the light which surrounds her like a halo comes from you, from her, or from the meeting of your sparks.
- Natalie BarneyThis statue will serve as a reminder to all those who visit the Peace Garden of the love and hope for the peace my son always held in his heart. This sculpture and the Center that surrounds it will carry Tupac`s message on down to our children`s children.

- Afeni ShakurThe cloud of doubt that surrounds political figures tends to remain and never dissipate or be clarified.
- Bob WoodwardSince the beginning, Native Peoples lived a life of being in harmony with all that surrounds us.
- Dennis BanksDerive happiness in oneself from a good day`s work, from illuminating the fog that surrounds us.
- Henri MatisseWell the themes for me were and remain sex and love and grief and death - the things that make us and undo us, create and destroy, how we breed and disappear and the emotional context that surrounds these events.
- Thomas LynchWhat surrounds us we endure better for giving it a name - and moving on.
- Alderman Dana McLendonBy mere burial man arrives not at bliss; and in the future life, throughout its whole infinite range, they will seek for happiness as vainly as they sought it here, who seek it in aught else than that which so closely surrounds them here - the Infinite.
- Alice RivlinSpace, and space again, is the infinite deity which surrounds us and in which we are ourselves contained.
- Amanda MilburnSize matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you? Hmm? Hmm. And well you should not. For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere, yes. Even between the land and the ship.

We want these students to have the ability to stay in school and we want their families to have the peace of mind of knowing that their son or daughter will continue their education, regardless of the tragedy that surrounds them now.
- Arthur CayleyI hate racial discrimination most intensely and all its manifestations. I have fought all my life; I fight now, and will do so until the end of my days. Even although I now happen to be tried by one, whose opinion I hold in high esteem, I detest most violently the set-up that surrounds me here. It makes me feel that I am a Black man in a White man`s court. This should not be I should feel perfectly at ease and at home with the assurance that I am being tried by a fellow South African, who does not regard me as an inferior, entitled to a special type of justice.
