I'm still very professional about my fitness. I stay in trim as I always did.

Beauty is all very well at first sight; but who looks at it when it has been in the house three days?

George Bernard Shaw

A little credulity helps one on through life very smoothly.

Elizabeth Gaskell

Naturepitiless in a pitiless universeis certainly not concerned with the survival of Americans or, for that matter, of any of the two billion people now inhabiting this earth. Hence, our destiny, with the aid of God, remains in our own hands.

George Bernard Shaw

Most good actors have a huge intelligence about the human condition and a real open heart to different kinds of people and behavior.

Tim Robbins

Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man and his god, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legitimate powers of government reach actions only, and not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, thus building a wall of separation between church and state.

Thomas Jefferson, From a letter

Don't let your special character and values, the secret that you know and no one else does, the truth - don't let that get swallowed up by the great chewing complacency.

Aesop

We cannot tell the precise moment when friendship formed. As in filling a vessel drop by drop, there is at last a drop which makes it run over so in a series of kindness there is at last one which makes the heart run over.

Samuel Johnson
