I've been through it all, baby, I'm mother courage.
Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.
Madame Curie
If you're an old pro, you know how well you're doing when you're doing it, and your inner government spanks you if you're not doing well.
Jerry Lewis
Just as I shall select my ship when I am about to go on a voyage, or my house when I propose to take a residence, so I shall choose my death when I am about to depart from life.
Seneca
Do not separate text from historical background. If you do, you will have perverted and subverted the Constitution, which can only end in a distorted, bastardized form of illegitimate government.
James Madison
I've never any pity for conceited people, because I think they carry their comfort about with them.
George Eliot
Mumford & Sons' music appeals to a lot of America. I'm really proud of them.
Ellie Goulding
People tend to become more emotionally intelligent as they age and mature.
Daniel Goleman
I like normal stuff people fear - like spiders and heights. I'm frightened by the unknown, by things that are hard to figure out and get a grip on.
Haley Joel Osment
I think men are afraid to be with a successful woman, because we are terribly strong, we know what we want and we are not fragile enough.
Shirley Bassey
I write the music, produce it and the band plays within the parameters that I set.
Sting
I associate going to an airport with work because I travel so much with my job. So when I have a few days free from work, I tend to stay at home.
Evelyn Glennie
Most of my life I have played a lot of famous people but most of them were dead so you have a poetic license.
Christopher Plummer
It's interesting - I always thought when I was doing more melodramatic stuff like 'Everwood' that the directors were constantly reeling me in and stopping me from being funny.
Chris Pratt
The means by which we live have outdistanced the ends for which we live. Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Crucial to understanding federalism in modern day America is the concept of mobility, or 'the ability to vote with your feet.' If you don't support the death penalty and citizens packing a pistol - don't come to Texas. If you don't like medicinal marijuana and gay marriage, don't move to California.
Rick Perry
My greatest fear is feeling like a professional novelist. Somebody who creates characters, who sits down and has pieces of paper taped to the wall - what's going to happen in this scene, or this act. What I like is for it to be a much more scary, sloppy reflection of who I am.
Jonathan Safran Foer
The battle for women's rights has been largely won.
Margaret Thatcher
Any mind that is capable of real sorrow is capable of good.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
I had never seen much of Star Trek, or any other science fiction, before I was cast. But Seven's wonderful.
Jeri Ryan
You're not really necessarily the coolest guy in their life. You are a conduit to the really cool people.
Tony Shalhoub
Now, guitar was pretty cool. Everybody knew something on the guitar. So I wanted to play guitar, but I told my dad if he wanted me to keep studying something, I'd like to study piano.
Jackson Browne
The only real stumbling block is fear of failure. In cooking you've got to have a what-the-hell attitude.
Julia Child
I recently took up ice sculpting. Last night I made an ice cube. This morning I made 12, I was prolific.
Mitch Hedberg
Hell, I never vote for anybody, I always vote against.
W. C. Fields
It will be of little avail to the people that the laws are made by men of their own choice if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood.
The way that organizations and organisms anticipate the future is by taking signals from the past, most the time.
Kevin Kelly
You wanna get the truth out of me, get me hammered.
Ron White
Fall is my favorite season in Los Angeles, watching the birds change color and fall from the trees.
David Letterman
I've found men are less likely to let petty things annoy them.
Marilyn Monroe
I hope to one day co-sign a lease with another person but, well, it doesn't plague me that I have yet to do so. Put it this way: I've never had to violently tug at my own pillow at 2 A.M. to get myself to stop snoring.
Sloane Crosley
Our music's kind of about taking something ugly and making it beautiful.
Jerry Cantrell
I do not say anything from jealousy.
Anna Held
We live in an age where anonymity is growing in magnitude like a bomb going off.
Jock Sturges
Forgiveness is like faith. You have to keep reviving it.
Mason Cooley
If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right.
Henry Ford
He who is not just is severe, he who is not wise is sad.
Voltaire
Since we cannot change reality, let us change the eyes which see reality.
Nikos Kazantzakis
That's a wonderful change that's taken place, and so most poetry today is published, if not directly by the person, certainly by the enterprise of the poet himself, working with his friends.
A. R. Ammons
I really, really, really want to do a silly romantic comedy where I can just have a crush on the guy, trip over myself, and laugh and be goofy. I just feel like all I do is cry, sob, and fight zombies and the bad guys.
Laurie Holden
As much as I transferred my mother to Elizabeth Shore of The Black Dahlia, as much as her dad mutated into an obsession with crime in general, well, I have thought about other things throughout the years.
