It is far more difficult to murder a phantom than a reality.
You know that day after day of, Oh God what am I going to do with myself feeling? The fear of the emptiness that it implies keeps me going.
Anish Kapoor
It would be wonderful to think that the future is unknown and sort of surprising.
Alan Rickman
Rams wrapped in thermogene beget no lambs.
Aldous Huxley
You know what? I never really factor Hollywood into anything. I'm a black actor, so I can't really control what Hollywood thinks. I gotta go do my thing, and my jokes have got to be funny. Whatever I do has got to be great.
Jamie Foxx
The Supreme Court has never ruled that Congress can use the Commerce Clause to require individuals to engage in an activity they have chosen to avoid. Yet that is precisely what Obamacare does: It forces Americans without health insurance to purchase coverage. Such a requirement is unprecedented and unconstitutional.
John Cornyn
To accept good advice is but to increase one's own ability
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Libertarians argue that no normal adult has the right to impose choices on other normal adults, except in abnormal circumstances, such as when one person finds another unconscious and administers medical assistance or calls an ambulance.
Tom G. Palmer
On a couple of occasions I've shocked myself. Pet Sematery was appalling when it first came out on to the page.
Stephen King
When you want a break from dogs, and you take them to the kennel to the stars, no one thinks you're a bad pet owner. But when you have kids, you can't drop them off for three weeks without someone calling Child Protective Services!
Gabrielle Union
I'm a believer in belief. Faith is something that works - it causes people to do things, it has results. It's an intangible, indefinable, very real thing. And it moves people, sometimes to atrocity. And sometimes to survival.
Tommy Lee Jones
A man who is master of himself can end a sorrow as easily as he can invent a pleasure. I don't want to be at the mercy of my emotions. I want to use them, to enjoy them, and to dominate them.
Oscar Wilde
I'm thinking to myself, I just love doing the art, it takes me a morning to do.
Eddie Campbell
Christianity gave Eros poison to drink; he did not die of it, certainly, but degenerated to Vice.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Music is the vapour of art.
Victor Hugo
You never go into a marriage expecting to get divorced. You go into a marriage expecting it's going to last forever, and you have a lot of ways you dream about the future. You have all these expectations, and then you have to adjust those expectations, and it can be a very unnerving, confusing time.
Jenna Fischer
The great difficulty is first to win a reputation; the next to keep it while you live; and the next to preserve it after you die, when affection and interest are over, and nothing but sterling excellence can preserve your name. Never suffer youth to be an excuse for inadequacy, nor age and fame to be an excuse for indolence.
Benjamin Haydon
One of the surest evidences of an elevated taste is the power of enjoying works of impassioned terrorism, in poetry, and painting. The man who can look at impassioned subjects of terror with a feeling of exultation may be certain he has an elevated taste.
The weak have remedies, the wise have joys superior wisdom is superior bliss.
Edward Young
But secondly you say 'society must exact vengeance, and society must punish'. Wrong on both counts. Vengeance comes from the individual and punishment from God.
No one ever complains about a speech being too short!
Ira Hayes
Effective managers live in the present but concentrate on the future.
James L. Hayes
What the public needs to understand is that these new technologies, especially in recombinant DNA technology, allow scientists to bypass biological boundaries altogether.
Jeremy Rifkin
Endless meetings, sloppy communications and red tape steal the entrepreneur's time.
Paralyze resistance with persistence.
Woody Hayes
I have only two rules which I regard as principles of conduct. The first is: Have no rules. The second is: Be independent of the opinion of others.
Albert Einstein
I've had smarter people around me all my life, but I haven't run into one yet that can outwork me. And if they can't outwork you, then smarts aren't going to do them much good. That's just the way it is. And if you believe that and live by it, you'd be surprised at how much fun you can have.
The hard part about writing a novel is finishing it.
Ernest Hemingway
Without winners, there wouldn't even be any civilization.
There's only one way you can fail, and that's to quit.
Brian Hays
If you've got the guts to stick it out... you're going to make it.
Our lives are fed by kind words and gracious behavior. We are nourished by expressions like excuse me and other such simple courtesies... Rudeness, the absence of the sacrament of consideration, is but another mark that our time-is-money society is lacking in spirituality, if not also in its enjoyment of life.
Ed Hays
The successful person and the unsuccessful person are looking at the same world; the difference between them is what they see.
Steve Maraboli
Fashions in bigotry come and go. The right thing lasts.
Mary Hays
So in all these little ways we spin a web, a cocoon, around ourselves. The cocoon becomes nice and snug and comfortable because it is very familiar. We know every little corner of our life; we can even write poetry about it. We may also have ideas about the great mystery which religions speak of, which gives our cocoon an especial sense of security: we can worship the great mystery outside of it and feel good about that. The cocoon is safe, bounded, claustrophobic, and a little stale. We settle into it and live our lives.
Jeremy W. Hayward
Das Alter macht nicht kindisch, wie man spricht, Es findet uns nur noch als wahre Kinder.
To a very large extent men and women are a product of how they define themselves. As a result of a combination of innate ideas and the intimate influences of the culture and environment we grow up in, we come to have beliefs about the nature of being human. These beliefs penetrate to a very deep level of our psychosomatic systems, our minds and brains, our nervous systems, our endocrine systems, and even our blood and sinews. We act, speak, and think according to these deeply held beliefs and belief systems.
Like what you see?
Cassandra Clare
Just what you want to be, you will be in the end.
Justin Hayward
The real superstar is a man or a woman raising six kids on $150 a week.
Spencer Haywood
Friendship is a horizon -- which expands whenever we approach it.
