The words that a father speaks to his children in the privacy of home are not heard by the world but as in whispering galleries they are clearly heard at the end and by posterity.

According to the Privacy Rights Center up to 10 million Americans are victims of ID theft each year. They have a right to be notified when their most sensitive health data is stolen.

I am absolutely opposed to a national ID card. This is a total contradiction of what a free society is all about. The purpose of government is to protect the secrecy and the privacy of all individuals not the secrecy of government. We don't need a national ID card.

Every American deserves to live in freedom to have his or her privacy respected and a chance to go as far as their ability and effort will take them - regardless of race gender ethnicity or economic circumstances.

A book is the only place in which you can examine a fragile thought without breaking it or explore an explosive idea without fear it will go off in your face. It is one of the few havens remaining where a man's mind can get both provocation and privacy.

Being very famous is not the fun it sounds. It merely means you're being chased by a lot of people and you lose your privacy.

For me getting comfortable with being famous was hard - that whole side of it the loss of anonymity the loss of privacy. Giving up that part of your life and not having control of it.

No one can train you to be famous. How do you deal with the loss of anonymity the loss of privacy? You have to be disciplined.

The worst thing about being famous is the invasion of your privacy.

I have been called a nun with a switchblade where my privacy is concerned. I think there's a point where one says that's for family that's for me.
