Don't think so much about who is for or against you, rather give all your care, that God be with you in everything you do.

If your heart were sincere and upright, every creature would be unto you a looking-glass of life and a book of holy doctrine.
Performing doesn't turn me on. It's an egomaniac business, filled with prima donnas - including this one.

When women break that taboo and they're not afraid to drive that car by herself - that's it. Now she has the guts to speak up for herself and take action.
Manal al-Sharif
Be not angry that you cannot make another what you wish them to be; since you cannot make yourself what you wish to be.
It is no little wisdom for a man to keep himself in silence and in good peace when evil words are spoken to him, and to turn his heart to God and not to be troubled with man's judgment.
It is vanity to desire a long life and to take no heed of a good life.
I suppose that every time there is difficulty. I remember about Space Mountain: It took us ten years before we found the technology that would allow such a ride. And during these ten years, I had a model that I kept, waiting for the technology we needed.
John Hench
Everybody keeps saying that India's a poor country. Yes, we have poverty. But I blame the government of India, the political establishment, for their failure to educate and therefore their failure to control the poverty.

Friedrich Durrenmatt
I unfortunately had a lot of medical procedures throughout my life, so I decided to paint all of my surgeries as a way to heal and as a way to grow.
Paz de la Huerta
I have a really, really, really normal family. And by normal I mean we're all nuts on some level. I think you've gotta be a little nuts to pursue any kind of creative job. I was also a really good kid. I know that sounds really dull, but I didn't rebel in the traditional sense.
Anna Paquin

We all want to be happy, and we're all going to die. You might say those are the only two unchallengeably true facts that apply to every human being on this planet.

Gregory ''Pappy'' Boyington
Save your money. You're going to need twice as much money in your old age as you think.

J. F. Boyse

Peg Bracken
Beauty is a radiance that originates from within and comes from inner security and strong character.

The English are polite by telling lies. The Americans are polite by telling the truth.
