Failure is nature's plan to prepare you for great responsibilities.
Nearly everyone I met, worked with, or read about was my teacher, one way or another.
Loretta Young
The beauty of the past belongs to the past.
Margaret Bourke-White
I think the amazing thing about gospel music is that not only does it lift up the death and resurrection of our Lord, which is consistent with the Gospel, but it is uniquely communicated depending upon the generation.
T. D. Jakes
For me, every day is a new thing. I approach each project with a new insecurity, almost like the first project I ever did. And I get the sweats. I go in and start working, I'm not sure where I'm going. If I knew where I was going I wouldn't do it.
Frank Gehry
Pure drawing is an abstraction. Drawing and colour are not distinct, everything in nature is coloured.
Paul Cezanne
My age and health will never allow me to realize the dream of art I've been pursuing all my life.
Black as the devil, hot as hell, pure as an angel, sweet as love.
Charles Maurice de Talleyrand
Working with Julie Andrews is like getting hit over the head with a valentine.
Christopher Plummer
I didn't realize what an impact having a No. 1 single would have. It connects me with people of different ages, and I get to travel all over the world.
Lisa Loeb
I think what I do differently from a lot of TV chefs is that I break down barriers and make fine food more accessible to the regular person, who might be intimidated. I try hard, particularly with wine, to make it not intimidating. It's sort of a teaching job.
Ted Allen
I don't feel the need to direct. I tried to get other people to direct Dances, but they wouldn't do it. They all thought it was too long. One director wanted to cut the Civil War sequence. Another thought the white woman was very cliched.
Kevin Costner
It would be sad if my best work had been 20 years ago and now I only had memories.
Demian Bichir
At the end of the day it's got to be a good movie, it's got to be a funny movie, and it's got to make people think, 'Hey, I couldn't have spent my time any better.'
Tom Hanks
Each is under the most sacred obligation not to squander the material committed to him, not to sap his strength in folly and vice, and to see at the least that he delivers a product worthy the labor and cost which have been expended on him.
Anna Julia Cooper
It's such a beautiful sport, with no politics involved, no color, no class. Only as a youngster can you play and as a pro can you win. The game has kept me young, involved and excited and for me to be up here with gems of baseball.
Jack Buck
I passionately hate the idea of being with it I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.
Orson Welles
If you have God on your side, everything becomes clear.
Ayrton Senna
The cure for sorrow is to learn something.
Barbara Sher
I hadn't made a big-budget film, and in Hollywood there's a sort of man and boys situation. You're a man, you make $80 million movies! As if it's harder to make an $80 million movie. Well, I guess businesswise it is because you have more executives to argue with.
Gus Van Sant
No matter how old and glorious the models, sad indeed is the woman who sees fashion as a means of self-expression rather than an agent of social control.
Julie Burchill
One thing I was thinking about is that they probably get their come-uppance about the same percentage that people in real life do. Basically, stealing for all practical purposes might as well be legal in New York.
Mike Judge
The purpose of our lives is to be happy.
Dalai Lama
Society cannot continue to disable themselves through their need to categorize people or make assumptions as to another individual's abilities.
Evelyn Glennie
And I know that the younger generation is doing things that are so ingenious. And for them it's not a matter of a political belief or an environmental stance. It's really just common sense.
Daryl Hannah
America's state religion, is patriotism, a phenomenon which has convinced many of the citizenry that 'treason' is morally worse than murder or rape.
William Blum
Conscience in most men, is but the anticipation of the opinions of others.
Jeremy Taylor
Every act of virtue is an ingredient unto reward.
Marriage is like a game of chess except the board is flowing water, the pieces are made of smoke and no move you make will have any effect on the outcome.
Jerry Seinfeld
My husband had a very strong identity and was successful in his life. Thank God for that. There's no way I can control him. I wouldn't stay married to him if I felt I could. I can readily take my business personality into the home. But he forces me to be a partner rather than the boss.
Barbara Corcoran
Curiosity is the direct incontinence of the spirit.
Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart.
Tecumseh
It takes time to save time.
Joe Taylor
I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Being willing is not enough; we must do.
Russell C. Taylor
Wisdom is perishable. Unlike information or knowledge, it cannot be stored in a computer or recorded in a book. It expires with each passing generation.
Sid Taylor
Right now I'm not involved with anybody, but I hope by 75 I will be again.
Stevie Nicks
He who gives what he would as readily throw away, gives without generosity; for the essence of generosity is in self sacrifice.
Sir Henry Taylor
We have to face the reality of climate change. It is arguably the biggest threat we are facing today.
William Hague
The hope, and not the fact, of advancement, is the spur to industry.
Shy and unready men are great betrayers of secrets; for there are few wants more urgent for the moment than the want of something to say.
Shy and proud men are more liable than any others to fall into the hands of parasites and creatures of low character. For in the intimacies which are formed by shy men, they do not choose, but are chosen.
