Henry Ford

My films are an extension of my poetry, using the white screen like the white page to be filled with images.
James Broughton
Everybody experiences far more than he understands. Yet it is experience, rather than understanding, that influences behavior.
Marshall McLuhan
That is the thankless position of the father in the family -- the provider for all, and the enemy of all.
To me a lush carpet of pine needles or spongy grass is more welcome than the most luxurious Persian rug.
Helen Keller
Government is not reason it is not eloquent it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.
George Washington
Friendship can only exist between persons with similar interests and points of view. Man and woman by the conventions of society are born with different interests and different points of view.
Whenever a doctor cannot do good, he must be kept from doing harm.
Hippocrates
If we take the generally accepted definition of bravery as a quality which knows no fear, I have never seen a brave man. All men are frightened. The more intelligent they are, the more they are frightened.
George S. Patton
Happiness consumes itself like a flame. It cannot burn for ever, it must go out, and the presentiment of its end destroys it at its very peak.
When they watch a movie and they know that you're in a relationship, you just kind of watch that constantly.
Charlize Theron
Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.
Steve Jobs
The hood-winked husband shows his anger, and the word jealous is flung in his face. Jealous husband equals betrayed husband. And there are women who look upon jealousy as synonymous with impotence, so that the betrayed husband can only shut his eyes, powerless in the face of such accusations.
Tell the truth, work hard, and come to dinner on time.
Gerald R. Ford
Computers are like Old Testament gods; lots of rules and no mercy.
Joseph Campbell
I'm not trying to clock scores in this lifetime, it's just that things are better now than they were like five, ten years ago. Music has gotten a lot better. There's a lot of people who are committed to - soulfully.
Jerry Garcia
Ability is a poor man's wealth.
Matthew Wren
The art of interpretation is not to play what is written.
Pablo Casals
It seems essential, in relationships and all tasks, that we concentrate only on what is most significant and important.
Soren Kierkegaard
I don't have dreams. How can I say it? I myself am a dream.
Ayumi Hamasaki
The beauty of 'spacing' children many years apart lies in the fact that parents have time to learn the mistakes that were made with the older ones - which permits them to make exactly the opposite mistakes with the younger ones.
Sydney J. Harris
I say grace. I'm a big believer in grace. I happen to believe in a God that made all the food and so I'm pretty grateful for that and I thank him for that. But I'm also thankful for the people that put the food on the table.
Alton Brown
This is a government takeover of our healthcare system. It is the government basically running the entire healthcare system, turning large insurers into de facto public utilities, depriving people of choice, depriving people of options, raising people's prices, raising taxes when we need new jobs.
Paul Ryan
I think feminists are unaware of the tremendous extent of the role of women in history.

John Sununu
You know, many people have said that I'm on the edge and I'm maverick for some of the big operations that I've done. I'm not at all. I pray I ask God to give me wisdom, 'Should I do it?', guidance in terms of how to do it, who to consult with. All those kind of things are incredibly important.
Benjamin Carson
To be honest I live among the English and have always found them to be very honest in their business dealings. They are noble, hard-working and anxious to do the right thing. But joy eludes them, they lack the joy that the Irish have.
Fiona Shaw
I don't know if it's a romantic comedy but I'm in the beginning of the first of the season of 'The West Wing.' We shot it last year. I don't know. If anyone asks me to be in one, I'll jump on it.
Jason Isaacs
Love is the joy of the good, the wonder of the wise, the amazement of the Gods.
Plato
I'm not a very good impersonator, my friends maybe, but not famous people.
