Kajol

I can't stand on a podium and beat my chest saying I'm the best. I just think I've been the luckiest of all. Yes, I'm talented. The movies that I've chosen and the way they've fared have also helped.

Fernando Alonso

It is true - maybe with five or seven points more, I could be five times world champion.

Kaetlyn Osmond

When I broke my leg, I never thought I'd ever be skating again let alone be standing on a world podium. I had to relearn how to skate, relearn how to even stand on one foot again. I had to relearn all my technique.

Canadian Athlete

Lizzie Armitstead

As a female athlete, I think it's really important to stand up on a podium and represent females and what we're capable of, and I always try to make political statements with what I do rather than with headlines.

English Athlete

Abby Wambach

The minute you step off that podium is the minute you start preparing for the next world championship. That's kind of how I work. You celebrate for a brief moment, then you move on.

American Athlete

Jane D. Hull

I have said it on several occasions, several times from this podium, that providing a quality education for our children is high on my priority list. I will not stop now.

American Politician

For me, personally, getting a podium is not as important as feeling super comfortable on my skiing.

 But every time I hear the climate activists speak on a podium, they would point out how we, young people, are not included in decision making process. Something I noted myself back home in Zimbabwe, where there are more opportunities for young people to join events and speak to important decision makers.

 And he said that he was going to do an apartment block next to a parking structure. And we thought, rather than doing a traditional stack of apartments looking straight into a big boring block of cars, why don't we turn all the apartments into penthouses, put them on a podium of cars.

 Not only is your throat too tight to breathe, but it'd be so embarrassing. No, you aren't being stalked by a monster, you're speaking in public, a fate some deem worse than death. See, when you're dead, you feel nothing; at a podium, you feel stage fright.

The science of stage...

 most cities are designed by adults. Urban planners, architects, developers, politicians, and occasionally, a few loud citizens. Rarely do you consider the voices of a group of four-year-olds, barely tall enough to reach the podium at city council chambers.

How kids can help design...

 He got an ovation. The astronomers weren't angry at him; they didn't want to chastise him. They praised him for his honesty and his integrity. I love that! Scientists are people. And it gets better! Lyne steps off the podium.
