I'm doing my best to raise my son and give him a nurturing, loving, and caring environment so he can grow up and be the best version of himself.
I have personal beliefs and they are sometimes reflected in the movies I make, but I also reflect other points of view.
Tim Robbins
You should read books like you take medicine, by advice, and not by advertisement.
John Ruskin
I think as an American society, when we're paying too many taxes or dealing with war, we don't want to see sad things at the movies.
Zoe Saldana
Be sure that you go to the author to get at his meaning, not to find yours.
Books are divided into two classes, the books of the hour and the books of all time.
To use books rightly, is to go to them for help; to appeal to them when our own knowledge and power fail; to be led by them into wider sight and purer conception than our own, and to receive from them the united sentence of the judges and councils of all time, against our solitary and unstable opinions.
People cannot live by lending money to one another.
One of the prevailing sources of misery and crime is in the generally accepted assumption, that because things have been wrong a long time, it is impossible they will ever be right.
They are the weakest-minded and the hardest-hearted men that most love change.
The beginning and almost the end of all good law is that everyone shall work for their bread and receive good bread for their work.
To watch the corn grow, or the blossoms set; to draw hard breath over the plough or spade; to read, to think, to love, to pray, are the things that make men happy.
No one can become rich by the efforts of only their toil, but only by the discovery of some method of taxing the labor of others.
In health of mind and body, men should see with their own eyes, hear and speak without trumpets, walk on their feet, not on wheels, and work and war with their arms, not with engine-beams, nor rifles warranted to kill twenty men at a shot before you can see them.
Men don't and can't live by exchanging articles, but by producing them. They don't live by trade, but by work. Give up that foolish and vain title of Trades Unions; and take that of laborers Unions.
Along the iron veins that traverse the frame of our country, beat and flow the fiery pulses of its exertion, hotter and faster every hour. All vitality is concentrated through those throbbing arteries into the central cities; the country is passed over like a green sea by narrow bridges, and we are thrown back in continually closer crowds on the city gates.
Government and cooperation are in all things the laws of life. Anarchy and competition, the laws of death.
I had to act in a school play when I was about ten years old. I really didn't want to do it. But everyone had to do it so I didn't have a choice. A talent agent came and watched it and later gave me some work. It's funny because I'd always known that I wanted a movie career. I just didn't think that I would be in the movies.
Kristen Stewart
Every success in limiting armaments is a sign that the will to achieve mutual understanding exists, and every such success thus supports the fight for international law and order.
Ludwig Quidde
The common practice of keeping up appearances with society is a mere selfish struggle of the vain with the vain.
The higher a man stands, the more the word vulgar becomes unintelligible to him.
My mom FedExes a red velvet cake she makes from scratch to me every birthday.
Molly Sims
What right have you to take the word wealth, which originally meant well-being, and degrade and narrow it by confining it to certain sorts of material objects measured by money.
Summer is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces up, snow is exhilarating; there is no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.
Men don't even ask me out. I can't remember the last time I was asked out on a date, and I'm talking years here. I spend my life more and more alone.
Anna Nicole Smith
As a politician, you have to deal with someone wanting you to fail every day. I think I prefer being in a situation where generally people are rooting for me, and if they aren't rooting for me, they aren't out there to see my downfall. I respect the people who have the stomach for it.
John Legend
Anyway, all these computers and digital gadgets are no good. They just fill your head with numbers and that can't be good for you.
Prince
I like to think of myself at home in the armchair, writing, smoking and occasionally wandering down the shop.
Stephen Fry
I still have, I hope, a lot of years and there are still a lot of things I want to do.
Faye Dunaway
I wish I had the nerve not to tip.
Paul Lynde
Well I think in a marriage you have to be honest and ask yourself, you know, what is my role? What is my responsibility?
Hillary Clinton
To pass from estrangement from God to be a son of God is the basic fact of conversion. That altered relationship with God gives you an altered relationship with yourself, with your brother man, with nature, with the universe.
E. Stanley Jones
I had the good fortune to be able to right an injustice that I thought was being heaped on young people by lowering the voting age, where you had young people that were old enough to die in Vietnam but not old enough to vote for their members of Congress that sent them there.
Birch Bayh
What does kissing really mean to me? To me, if you feel, when you kiss a girl, that certain feeling of all those dolphins, like, swimming through your blood stream, and you get those good tingles inside your stomach, I don't think there's any better feeling.
Corey Haim
Don't reward bad behavior. It is one of the first rules of parenting. During the financial cataclysm of 2008, we said it differently. When we bailed out banks that had created their own misfortune, we called it a 'moral hazard,' because the bailout absolved the bank's bad acts and created an incentive for it to make the same bad loans again.
Eliot Spitzer
I love cooking during Christmas, all smells like the hot apple cider, the hot spiced wine.
Amy Smart
I don't think people are fools, and I think they deserve a good attitude and smart entertainment.
Tatyana Tolstaya
You're working on being a father, so that is something that when you experience it you'll understand the profundity of wanting to protect something dear to you.
Harvey Keitel
I want to write a book which is the history of comedy.
John Cleese
There are times as a parent when you realize that your job is not to be the parent you always imagined you'd be, the parent you always wished you had. Your job is to be the parent your child needs, given the particulars of his or her own life and nature.
Ayelet Waldman
Together, we can help make sure that every family that walks into a restaurant can make an easy, healthy choice.
Michelle Obama
