I'm very down to Earth, I'm just not from this Earth.
God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players [i.e. everybody], to being involved in an obscure and complex variant of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who .
Terry Pratchett
I was the kind of kid whose parents would drop him off at the local town library on their way to work, and I'd go and work my way through the children's area.
Neil Gaiman
The most important thing for me is having a relationship with God. To know that the owner, the creator of the universe loves you, sent His Son to die for your sins that's very empowering. Knowing Him and knowing that He loves me gives me encouragement and confidence to move forward.
Benjamin Carson
Losing Chloe had been like reading a wonderfulook only to realize that all the pages past a certain point were blank.

If you're working on a movie, you want it to be projected on the largest tapestry possible, and the sound to be perfect, and for that kind of communal experience of the movies to take place for it.
Greg Kinnear
Write without pay until somebody offers to pay.
Mark Twain
Live with integrity, respect the rights of other people, and follow your own bliss.
Nathaniel Branden
There should be a statute of limitation on grief. A rulebook that says it is all right to wake up crying, but only for a month. That after 42 days you will no longer turn with your heart racing, certain you have heard her call out your name. That there will be no fine imposed if you feel the need to clean out her desk; take down her artwork from the refrigerator; turn over a school portrait as you pass - if only because it cuts you fresh again to see it. That it's okay to measure the time she has been gone, the way we once measured her birthdays.
You have to defend your honor. And your family.
Suzanne Vega
People see you onstage and the glamorous side, but they don't see you traveling 600 miles a night, eating truck stop food and spending by yourself staring at walls.
Jason Aldean
Time did not compose her.
Jane Austen
Keep close to Nature's heart... and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.
John Muir
I am not imposed upon by fine words; I can see what actions mean.
George Eliot
Since narcissism is fueled by a greater need to be admired than to be liked, psychologists might use that fact as a therapeutic lever - stressing to patients that being known as a narcissist will actually cause them to lose the respect and social status they crave.
Jeffrey Kluger
Being a parent wasn't just about bearing a child. It was about bearing witness to its life.
Under President Obama's new health care law, Medicaid will become a very different health coverage program than first envisioned.
Fred Upton
My job is mostly to entertain and be funny.
Rosie O'Donnell
This communication alone, by the comparison of the antagonisms, rivalries, movements which give birth to decisive moments, permits the evolution of the soul, whereby a man realizes himself on earth. It is impossible to be concerned with anything else in art.
Robert Delaunay
We hold these truths to be sacred and undeniable that all men are created equal and independent, that from that equal creation they derive rights inherent and inalienable, among which are the preservation of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Thomas Jefferson
The plan shows that the twenty million people in the German democratic Republic and in the democratic sector of Berlin think only of peace, and that they are working for freedom and peaceful prosperity.
Walter Ulbricht
The secret of being a bore is to tell everything.
Voltaire
Flowers... are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty outvalues all the utilities of the world.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Being gay and being a woman has one big thing in common, which is that we both become invisible after the age of 42. Who wants a gay 50-year-old? No one, let me tell you.
Rupert Everett
It's how we see the world that keeps the darkness beyond at bay. Keeps it from pouring through and devouring us. I think all of us might know that, way down deep.
Stephen King
It was a mixed blessing to have famous parents. It was tough to go to auditions and be bad, since I couldn't be anonymous.
Ben Stiller
The unconsciousness of man is the consciousness of God.
Henry David Thoreau
Miracles are not contrary to nature, but only contrary to what we know about nature.
Saint Augustine
But remember that the pain of parting from friends will be felt by every body at times, whatever be their education or state.
I think we've been dulled by capitalism. We're just blobs now - we're so worried about how we can keep paying the lease on the car, the mortgage, the lease on the toaster and all that. You can't really think about much else. If you lose that, you lose the whole lot.
Love may, indeed, love the beloved when her beauty is lost: but not because it is lost. Love may forgive all infirmities and love still in spite of them: but Love cannot cease to will their removal. Love is more sensitive than hatred itself to every blemish in the beloved Of all powers he forgives most, but he condones least: he is pleased with little, but demands all.
C.S. Lewis
There is no substitute for accurate knowledge. Know yourself, know your business, know your men.
Lee Iacocca
My father was always depressed. When he was home and sober, he was mostly in his room.
Sherman Alexie
With copious evidence ranging from Plato's haughtiness to Beethoven's tirades, we may conclude that the most brilliant people of history tend to be a prickly lot.
Stephen Jay Gould
Hay ... tantas clases de amor como corazones
As I became very defined in my personal politics, I turned down some films that I slightly regret now I'm not going to say what they were.
