You cannot push any one up a ladder unless he be willing to climb a little himself.
Wanting to is the whole lesson; all the rest is practice.
Orson Scott Card
When you have to make a choice and don't make it, that in itself is a choice.
William James
I have always been very obsessed with time. Time's passage makes us all very vulnerable and because we all experience it in our own way, it can make us feel very alone.
John Barton
Clever father, clever daughter; clever mother, clever son.
Proverb
Bad acting comes in many bags, various odors. It can be performed by cardboard refugees from an Ed Wood movie, reciting their dialogue off an eye chart, or by hopped-up pros looking to punch a hole through the fourth wall from pure ballistic force of personality, like Joe Pesci in a bad mood. I can respect bad acting that owns its own style.
James Wolcott
The effects of good music are not just because it's new; on the contrary music strikes us more the more familiar we are with it.
Johann von Goethe
We all have our time machines. Some take us back, they're called memories. Some take us forward, they're called dreams.
Jeremy Irons
The stability and peace which seemed to be so firmly established by the brilliant monarchy of Francis I vanished with the terrible outbreak of the Wars of Religion.
Lytton Strachey
Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book. And then there are books like An Imperial Affliction, which you can't tell people about, books so special and rare and yours that advertising your affection feels like betrayal
John Green
Sadly despair is usually the #1 teacher of spirituality~uniting us together in our darkness...leading us to light!? @800273TALK
Timothy Pina
The call of death is a call of love. Death can be sweet if we answer it in the affirmative, if we accept it as one of the great eternal forms of life and transformation.
Hermann Hesse
We're real people and we're a band that's been playing on the scene for a long time. We've made a lot of friends, and one enemy we've always had was the NME. They've always basically slated us and they've basically never ever written about the music.
