I am outraged that a House member has tried through this provision to breach the traditional confidentiality of individual Americans' tax returns. There is no reason for this measure, and this last-minute act violates all principles of judgment and common sense.

John Warner

If you send emails to your spouse or your lawyer or family members, you want to have these messages be confidential.

Alex Stamos

When I was writing 'Kitchen Confidential,' I was in my 40s, I had never paid rent on time, I was 10 years behind on my taxes, I had never owned my own furniture or a car.

Anthony Bourdain

'Kitchen Confidential' wasn't a cautionary or an expose. I wrote it as an entertainment for New York tri-state area line cooks and restaurant lifers, basically; I had no expectation that it would move as far west as Philadelphia.

Anthony Bourdain

Like any good lawyer, I'm going to maintain a confidentiality of advice offered in confidence.

Ari Melber

Keep the problems of clients and prospects confidential. Divulge information only with their consent.

Arthur C. Nielsen

I mean, the FBI has to assure people who come and help them that they're going to be able to keep their identities confidential and protect them.

Asha Rangappa

The first and pivotal negotiations over global access to AIDS drugs began in Geneva in 1991. They lasted two years, but confidential minutes suggest they were doomed the first day.

Barton Gellman

Cloud services cut both ways in terms of security: you get off-site backup and disaster recovery, but you entrust your secrets to somebody else's hands. Doing the latter increases your exposure to government surveillance and the potential for deliberate or inadvertent breaches of your confidential files.

Barton Gellman

One common puzzle for the security-minded is how to work with confidential data on the road. Sometimes you can't bring your laptop, or don't want to. But working on somebody else's machine exposes you to malware and leaves behind all kinds of electronic trails.

Barton Gellman

Many company policies restrict use of E-mail, limit access to offensive Web sites and prohibit disclosure of confidential information. Few policies, if any, directly address personal Web pages.

Bill Dedman

A reporter's ability to keep the bond of confidentiality often enables him to learn the hidden or secret aspects of government.

Bob Woodward

I don't really write with living actors in mind. I guess I write for dead actors. I'll think of like, you know, Burt Lancaster would be good in this part, and so on. With 'L.A. Confidential,' it was like, 'Wouldn't it be cool if Dean Martin played the Kevin Spacey part?'

Brian Helgeland

Working on an adaptation is not as satisfying, because it's not your original work: you're interpreting. With 'L.A. Confidential,' I loved the book. In that case, I felt I was guardian of the work, staying as true to the novel as I could. I've since met the novelist, and he loves the movie and the script.

Brian Helgeland

Usually you kind of give the President a pass on leaking confidential stuff.

Candy Crowley

I was an assistant once. I worked for Rob Reiner and his family. I did sign a confidentiality agreement, though.

Cheryl Hines

The fact that doctors tend to treat people as individuals, guided by the need to ensure patient confidentiality, can reinforce this pattern of seeing the changes and challenges aging brings on through our heads and our bodies, rather than as a shared experience.

Chuck Norris

Network's rating dependent. A show might not stick. A lot's timing. Like, my Bradley Cooper in 'Kitchen Confidential' didn't always work. Cable supports young shows. TV Land, which you can find on Hulu, Amazon, iTunes, wanted 'Younger.' They came to me.

Darren Star

I watched 'Lagerfeld Confidential,' which was such an insight into the daily life of a maverick designer.

Dervla Kirwan

Confidentiality is a virtue of the loyal, as loyalty is the virtue of faithfulness.

Edwin Louis Cole

I know a lot of reporters certainly will go to jail to defend confidential sources. Some have even gone to jail for an issue like this. But I can't say that's the norm.
