Our priority has always been to have the lowest cost so we can be comfortable with weak freight rates. A big part of having the lowest cost is maintaining the largest network, and this means growing market share.
The reason my kids like McDonald's is that they always know what they're going to get. It's not gourmet food, but the french fries they order in Indianapolis are just like the french fries they order in Tampa. Wherever they get McDonald's fries, they know it will be the same. That's what McDonald's does.
I always had a thin frame, but when you hit 40 and eat french fries three days in a row, it's like, 'What happened?'
I used to always want to play the perfect match, and this meant not losing a point. The realisation came around the time I was 19 years old, in the French Open final in 2007. This was a key period in my career. I was told I was going for too many winners, which was affecting my game.
Back in my 20s, when I wrote 'A Place of Greater Safety,' the French Revolution novel, I thought, 'I'll always have to write historical novels because I can't do plots.' But in the six years of writing that novel, I actually learned to write, to invent things.
I think French women tend to keep it simple. I'd say try the less-is-more approach, which is not always easy to get right.
I'm always open to the possibility that somebody's got a better idea than I have. It happens with some frequency.
I'm always working and coming up with new and fresh ideas to keep my fans engaged and keep myself relevant.
I feel like there is plenty of room for fresh ideas, always.
The start of Bundesliga season is always exciting, as it's a fresh start for all teams fighting for the title.
I think I always have to feel fresh start, because I am getting old!
If I had to give one piece of advice to incoming college freshmen, I'd say always be true to yourself.
I don't fret over lost time - I can always use the situations in a novel.
My mum always used to buy a record every Friday.
For lunch, I tend to eat leftovers. I'm always recipe testing, so I tend to enjoy whatever is left in the fridge. I'm a big snacker, too.
In politics shared hatreds are almost always the basis of friendships.
Stage fright is my worst problem. A voice is very intimate. It's something of your own. So there's always this fear, because you feel naked. There's a fear of not reaching up to expectations.
I have always worked and did my work on the fringe, where I have feel very comfortable.
Our family was on the lunatic fringe. My mother was always completely irrepressible. My father made crowd noises into a microphone.
And we should keep our minds open, or at least ajar, to concepts on the fringe of science fiction. Flaky American futurologists aren't always wrong. They remind us that a superintelligent machine is the last instrument that humans may ever design - the machine will itself take over in making further steps.
