A man is not finished when he is defeated. He is finished when he quits.
I've never let producers tell me what to do. Even when I was making television, I always did what I wanted to do, and if I couldn't, I didn't do it. It was a freedom that, these days, young directors starting out don't have.
Michael Haneke
It is the sincere desire of the writer that our citizens should early understand that the genuine source of correct republican principles is the bible, particularly the New Testament or the Christian religion.
Noah Webster
Run for daylight.
Vince Lombardi
A creative element is surely present in all great systems, and it does not seem possible that all sympathy or fundamental attitudes of will can be entirely eliminated from any human philosophy.
Morris Raphael Cohen
Life is a balanced system of learning and evolution. Whether pleasure or pain; every situation in your life serves a purpose. It is up to us to recognize what that purpose could be.
Steve Maraboli
We're in a new world. We're in a world in which the possibility of terrorism, married up with technology, could make us very, very sorry that we didn't act.
Condoleezza Rice
Men hate more steadily than they love; and if I have said something to hurt a man once, I shall not get the better of this by saying many things to please him
Samuel Johnson
Developments in medical technology have long been confined to procedural or pharmaceutical advances, while neglecting a most basic and essential component of medicine: patient information management.
John Doolittle
A dream collage is pictures of your goals. It is like your future photo album.
Bo Bennett
'Friends' was an education in intelligent comedic banter in intelligent vernacular. It was an education in scene study. It was an education in group dynamic. I came out of there with a master's degree in comedy.
Matt LeBlanc
It was a great experience for a kid, because it was a bunch of kids playing on pirate ships and water slides, so looking back on it, it was the fondest experience of my childhood.
Corey Feldman
We say to the British government: you have kept those sculptures for almost two centuries. You have cared for them as well as you could, for which we thank you. But now in the name of fairness and morality, please give them back.
Melina Mercouri
This nation has always struggled with how it was going to deal with poor people and people of color. Every few years you will see some great change in the way that they approach this. We've had the war on poverty that never really got into waging a real war on poverty.
Maxine Waters
Pain was a fascinating horror
Aldous Huxley
I want to take piano lessons, I want to study at university, I want to travel, I want to do other parts, make another movie.
Zach Braff
Face your life, its pain, its pleasure, leave no path untaken.
Neil Gaiman
In a word, I was too cowardly to do what I knew to be right, as I had been too cowardly to avoid doing what I knew to be wrong.
Charles Dickens
Virtue itself scapes not calumnious strokes.
William Shakespeare
Children are not casual guests in our home. They have been loaned to us temporarily for the purpose of loving them and instilling a foundation of values on which their future lives will be built.
James Dobson
Happiness lies first of all in health.
George William Curtis
Whatever their bodies do affects their souls. It is funny how mortals always picture us as putting things into their minds: in reality our best work is done by keeping things out...
C.S. Lewis
'T is better to be lowly born, And range with humble livers in content, Than to be perked up in a glistering grief, And wear a golden sorrow.
Rarely do great beauty and great virtue dwell together.
Petrarch
Should I kill myself, or have a cup of coffee?
Albert Camus
A person who knows all sciences but does not know himself is a poor and ignorant person.
Leo Tolstoy
When you're a famous, successful person at 16 years old, the rules change for you. Everybody is doing things for you to make life easier so you can go out and play. And I think you miss out on lot of growing up and a lot of reality checks.
Chris Evert
We must never stop dreaming. Dreams provide nourishment for the soul, just as a meal does for the body. Many times in our lives we see our dreams shattered and our desires frustrated, but we have to continue dreaming. If we don't, our soul dies, and agape cannot reach it.
Paulo Coelho
Have you noticed in your past experience that your kind interpretations were almost always truer than you harsh one?
Lawrence G. Lovasik
To hear complaints with patience, even when complaints are vain, is one of the duties of friendship.
For my future I have no concern, and as a true philosopher, I never would have any, for I know not what it may be: as a Christian, on the other hand, faith must believe without discussion, and the stronger it is, the more it keeps silent.
Giacomo Casanova
Very often when I go in to meet for movies or pilots, I'm put on videotape. I hate the notion that that tape is going to sit on a shelf and never get better.
David Ogden Stiers
Climate change is a global issue - from the point of view of the Earth's climate, a molecule of CO2 emitted in Bejing is the same as a molecule emitted in Sydney.

George Bernard Shaw
People may hear your words, but they feel your attitude.
John C. Maxwell
Those who have not learned to read the ancient classics in the language in which they were written must have a very imperfect knowledge of the history of the human race; for it is remarkable that no transcript of them has ever been made into any modern tongue, unless our civilization itself may be regarded as such a transcript. Homer has never yet been printed in English, nor Aeschylus, nor Virgil even, works as refined, as solidly done, and as beautiful almost as the morning itself; for later writers, say what we will of their genius, have rarely, if ever, equaled the elaborate beauty and finish and the lifelong and heroic literary labors of the ancients. They only talk of forgetting them who never knew them.
Henry David Thoreau
It means 'Shadowhunters: looking better in black than the widows of our enemies since 1234
Cassandra Clare
His death has eclipsed the gaiety of nations, and impoverished the public stock of harmless pleasure.
It is time to maximize and prioritize our health care dollars.
