I don't want to just do independent movies and I don't want to just do adventure films. I enjoy both, and I think both are cogent.
Nicolas Cage
When you're happy you find pure joy in your life. There are no regrets in this state of happiness - and that's a goal worth striving for in all areas of your life.
Suze Orman
Experience is often what you get when you were expecting something else.
Source Unknown
Our wisdom comes usually from our experience, and our experience comes largely from our experience.
Sadness is a super important thing not to be ashamed about but to include in our lives. One of the bigger problems with sadness or depression is there's so much shame around it. If you have it you're a failure. You are felt as being very unattractive.
Mike Mills
Liberalism is a really old British tradition and it has a completely different attitude towards the individual and the relationship between the individual and the state than the collectivist response of Labour, and particularly Old Labour, does.
Nick Clegg
If the Romans had been obliged to learn Latin, they would never have found time to conquer the world.
Heinrich Heine
The British are supposed to be particularly averse to intellectuals, a prejudice closely bound up with their dislike of foreigners. Indeed, one important source of this Anglo-Saxon distaste for highbrows and eggheads was the French revolution, which was seen as an attempt to reconstruct society on the basis of abstract rational principles.
Terry Eagleton
Nothing is lost yet, nothing broken,and yet the cold blue word is spoken:say goodbye now to the Sun,the days of love and leaves are done.
R.P.T. (Robert Peter Tristram) C
I don't pretend to understand the Universe -- it's a great deal bigger than I am.
Thomas Carlyle
A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you, and were helped by you, will remember you when forget-me-nots are withered. Carve your name on hearts, and not on marble.
C. H. (Charles Haddon) Spurgeon
Politics is the art of the possible creativity is the art of the impossible.
Ben Okri
We all dream we do not understand our dreams, yet we act as if nothing strange goes on in our sleep minds, strange at least by comparison with the logical, purposeful doings of our minds when we are awake.
Erich Fromm

Winston Churchill
Art is a revolt against fate. All art is a revolt against man's fate.
Andre Malraux

Mahatma Gandhi
My mom and I have always been really close. She's always been the friend that was always there. There were times when, in middle school and junior high, I didn't have a lot of friends. But my mom was always my friend. Always.
Taylor Swift
I liked the way my character, Shane, was first introduced. You get introduced to her through this sexual action, and I thought that was so cool and just kind of summed up what she enjoys and who she is, to a certain extent. She's a complete sexual being and the great thing is that she doesn't apologize for it. It's just who she is. We rarely see women be able to do that on television.
Katherine Moennig
Science is not about control. It is about cultivating a perpetual sense of wonder in the face of something that forever grows one step richer and subtle than our latest theory about it. It is about reverence, not mastery.
Richard Powers

Donald Evans
The family is the test of freedom because the family is the only thing that the free man makes for himself and by himself.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
No man ever believes that the Bible means what it says: He is always convinced that it says what he means.
If you must hold yourself up to your children as an object lesson, hold yourself up as a warning and not an example.
If history repeats itself, and the unexpected always happens, how incapable must Man be of learning from experience!
There is no love sincerer than the love of food.
Forgive him, for he believes that the customs of his tribe are the laws of nature!
The best place to seek God is in a garden. You can dig for him there.
A professional whose job it is to explain to others what it personally does not understand.
Lord Northcliffe
Half the things that people do not succeed in are through fear of making the attempt.
James Northcote
As for courage and will -- we cannot measure how much of each lies within us, we can only trust there will be sufficient to carry through trials which may lie ahead.
Andre Norton
The voice of protest, of warning, of appeal is never more needed than when the clamor of fife and drum, echoed by the press and too often by the pulpit, is bidding all men fall in step and obey in silence the tyrannous word of command. Then, more than ever, it is the duty of the good citizen not to be silent.
Charles Eliot Norton
Not just in commerce but in the world of ideas too our age is putting on a veritable clearance sale. Everything can be had so dirt cheap that one begins to wonder whether in the end anyone will want to make a bid.
Soren Kierkegaard
