7. I'm an actor first and foremost. My producing credentials are just to say, 'Yeah, I love this story and now let's bring the people, the ensemble together,' and I get out of the way. I have no desire to check on schedules and shooting schedules and money and stuff like that. - Pierce Brosnan

8. We have a rule that if you check in code, you have to maintain it. So I mostly code on the side. I don't check in code anymore. - Mark Zuckerberg.
