Rupi Kaur I like B.C. because it’s so beautiful, but I think Toronto’s the greatest place because every corner of the world is here. – Rupi Kaur
Robyn Davidson In 10000 BC, all human beings were hunter-gatherers; by 1500 AD, 1 percent were hunter-gatherers. Less than .001 percent of people are hunter-gatherers today. – Robyn Davidson
Robin Roberts Every now and again I just really have to have that steak or lamb chop. But yeah, B.C. – before cancer – I would eat red meat probably three or four times a week, easily. I am convinced that the amount of red meat I contributed to it. – Robin Roberts
Raquel Welch I was lucky that one of my first movies, ‘One Million Years B.C.’ was made in Europe by a British company. The Brits, and a lot of the rest of Europe, seemed to really love exotic women. The fact that I was American and exotic just made me more appealing to them. – Raquel Welch
Patrick Stump Written by the ancient Chinese philosopher of the same name, the ‘Zhuangzi’ is one long perplexing puzzle of a rambling collection of enigmatic short stories. It’s a strange feeling to laugh at a joke written by someone in the 4th century B.C. – Patrick Stump
Neil MacGregor As the Persians wrote very little about how they ran their affairs, the Greek propaganda of the 5th century B.C. has for centuries gone virtually unchallenged – indeed, for Edward Said, it was the beginning of Europe’s long habit of misunderstanding and ill-informed contempt of the Middle East. – Neil MacGregor
Luke Kuechly All the training for the combine was basically practicing for the different drills that we would see at the combine. Rather than football specific drills that we would do at BC. – Luke Kuechly
Lee Ranaldo I’m married to a Canadianm so I have a lot of fond thoughts about Canada. I think about the prairies of Manitoba, where my wife is from, and I have a lot of friends and relatives on both coasts and have spent a lot time in Canada from Nova Scotia to B.C. In some ways, it’s a much more sane country than the U.S. – Lee Ranaldo
Kevin Patterson I like a certain grandeur to a landscape, which both the Arctic and coastal BC have. I like it to be at all times clear that people aren’t the dominant fact of a particular geography. – Kevin Patterson
Katherine Dunn Anthropologists believe women were among the skilled boxers of the ancient, sport-loving Minoan culture that flourished on Crete until 1100 B.C. The boxing booths at English fairs featured women in the 19th and early 20th centuries. – Katherine Dunn
Karen DeCrow Is it a recent occurrence that women have tried to control when and if they reproduced? Absolutely not. By 2000 B.C., there was worldwide use of herbal potions to prevent pregnancy. Condoms were made from animal bladders. – Karen DeCrow
