David Letterman

So much about religion has to do with rigid, sacrosanct preciousness. I don't live my life that way, and I don't feel that's what Baha'u'llah teaches.
Rainn Wilson
Faith is what someone knows to be true, whether they believe it or not.
Flannery O'Connor
Politicians... talk in generalities and lies, and I think they've caused all our grief. They're so awful, they're really funny. I hate thinking this because my dad loved politics.
Paul Lynde

Thomas Hood
I had a ninth grade teacher who told me I was much smarter and much better than I was allowing myself to be.
Scott Hamilton
In many cases your imagination is much more effective than what can be shown. It primes you to know something is about to happen - the anticipation and anxiety is worse than what ends up happening.
Oren Peli
Find your self-respect now. Don't dumb yourselves down. Think of yourself as capable and worthy of finding a guy who is going to respect you, too. It's so important, I mean, and the confidence you get from feeling smart and tackling something like mathematics, which is a challenge, right? Math is hard.
Danica McKellar
Time will inevitably uncover dishonesty and lies history has no place for them.
Norodom Sihanouk

Nelson Mandela
A picture is a poem without words.
Horace

Bill Keller
My philosophy is, don't take no for an answer and be willing to sacrifice your entire project for freedom.
Tim Robbins
I maybe had a first love and had my heart broken, but reflecting on it, I don't think that was love. I think as I'm getting older and having more in-depth relationships, maybe I'll experience it. At the moment, I don't know, exactly, if I've been in love.
Selena Gomez
I also use women as a sex object maybe I'm kinky. However, I like to talk to them as well.
Oliver Reed

Jimi Hendrix
The primary function of a theater is not to please itself, or even to please its audience. It is to serve talent.
Robert Brustein
As favor and riches forsake a man, we discover in him the foolishness they concealed, and which no one perceived before.
Jean de la Bruyere
The sun is new each day.
Heraclitus
You may drive a dog off the King's armchair, and it will climb into the preacher's pulpit; he views the world unmoved, unembarrassed, unabashed.
From time to time there appear on the face of the earth men of rare and consummate excellence, who dazzle us by their virtue, and whose outstanding qualities shed a stupendous light. Like those extraordinary stars of whose origins we are ignorant, and of whose fate, once they have vanished, we know even less, such men have neither forebears nor descendants: they are the whole of their race.
If I cry, it's about the personal loss of a friend or something like that. But when it comes to politics - no, I don't cry.
Nancy Pelosi
There is not in the world so toilsome a trade as the pursuit of fame; life concludes before you have so much as sketched your work.
The mathematical facts worthy of being studied are those which, by their analogy with other facts, are capable of leading us to the knowledge of a physical law.
Henri Poincare
Two persons cannot long be friends if they cannot forgive each other's little failings.
Generosity lies less in giving much than in giving at the right moment.
There are only two ways of getting on in the world: by one's own industry, or by the stupidity of others.
There is nothing new about these Republican attacks on our family planning decisions. In fact, from the moment they came into power, Republicans in the House of Representatives have been waging a war on women's health.
Patty Murray
That man is good who does good to others; if he suffers on account of the good he does, he is very good; if he suffers at the hands of those to whom he has done good, then his goodness is so great that it could be enhanced only by greater sufferings; and if he should die at their hands, his virtue can go no further: it is heroic, it is perfect.
Strength of character may be learned at work, but beauty of character is learned at home.
Henry Drummond
Have you ever watched someone become American? Last week, at a national citizenship conference I organize, thirty immigrants from 17 countries swore an oath and became citizens of the United States. It was a stirring experience for the hundreds of people in the room.
Eric Liu
The wonderful thing about acting is you move along with your decade. The older you get, the more interesting the parts you get to play and you bring more of your personal experience to the part.
Francesca Annis
My daughter Lila loves the smell of gasoline - she always says, 'Mummy, keep the door open,' when I'm filling up the car. I've heard it is one of the most preferred scents in the world - maybe that's something to study for my next fragrance!
