Mark Lloyd, American Public Servant

Benoit Mandelbrot, French Mathematician (1924-2010)
Unity is the most important thing on the road to stamping out terror. You need global rules of law and order, and they have to be enforced. Start with that principle.

Matthew McConaughey, American Actor (1969-  )
