Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both.
I never called my work an 'art'. It's part of show business, the business of building entertainment.
Walt Disney
The strength of the Democratic Party of Cook County is not something that just happened.
Richard J. Daley
My favorite toy growing up was Polly Pocket. But one gift that I wanted though never received for Christmas was a pair of trampoline moon shoes. You strap them to your feet and they have springs on them, and you can just jump around!
Lucy Hale
I had a good imagination and I still have one a child-like imagination that hasn't gone away.
Laura Linney
Happiness is an inside job.
William Arthur Ward
Frankly, I got into the movies because I like the movies a lot.
Jack Nicholson
I travel around the world, experiencing every language, every religion... some places where there's just no reason to smile, because their lives are so difficult.
Lionel Richie
I've had nine of my books adapted to film, and almost all were enjoyable. I've been very lucky with Hollywood, and look forward to more movies being adapted. But I don't get involved in that process. I know nothing about making movies and I stay away from it and hope for the best.
John Grisham
Science gives us knowledge, but only philosophy can give us wisdom.
Will Durant
Law is stable the societies we are speaking of are progressive. The greater or less happiness of a people depends on the degree of promptitude with which the gulf is narrowed.
Henry James Sumner Maine
My number one goal was not getting 'A's' - and I proved it. I was a 'C' student. You have to be ready to learn. If you're not interesting in learning, it doesn't work. As I grew older and wanted to learn and desperately wanted inside information, learning was a lot easier.
Brian Lamb
Go away, I'm all right!
H. G. [Herbert George] Wells
Perhaps the best motivation for going to Mars is political. It is obvious that no single nation currently has either the will or the resources to do it alone, but a consortium of nations and space agencies could achieve it within 20 years.
Paul Davies
I wanted to be a rich, famous rock-and-roll star in that order.
Dee Snider
The most experience I had in the criminology field is playing a thug as an actor. That was my first paid job. The police academy at the college was paying people to reenact the calls that potential cops would get. So I got to play thugs and people who were unruly.
Jeremy Renner
Trophies and medals have never meant much to me. I've had amazing experiences, which let you feel like you've accomplished something.
John Krasinski
I would love to photograph Stephen Hawking. I am just fascinated by science, I really am.
Helena Christensen
We had maybe the greatest success of any company that I know of in Paris, and after two or three years I wanted to do this same number that we did for PBS, so we did it and Paris had always considered us their darlings.
Katherine Dunham
Sometimes what works 40 years ago doesn't work today.
Joel Osteen
If one of my boys was asking me if they should go into politics, I'd say there's only one reason to go into public life and that's to help people.
Evan Bayh
Ever since I was a little kid, I've felt comfortable in a suit. It all started when my mom bought me a three-piece Pierre Cardin suit. I wore that thing everywhere. Eventually I realized I was going to be the kid who got beat up in school, but I kept wearing it.
Paul Feig
You have to wait for people to program you. The only difference is the amount of people that you're going to reach but that's going to even out in the next two or three years anyway. Computers are being bought faster than televisions right now.
Chuck D.
This administration and the leadership in Congress appear to be intent on valuing wealth over work, thereby placing working families at a distinct disadvantage.
Tim Bishop
Superman was never previewed because the producers didn't trust Warners with the film.
Richard Donner
Respect starts with yourself.
Proverb
The biological factors underlying race differences in sports have consequences for educational achievement, crime and sexual behavior.
J. Philippe Rushton
Whoso neglects learning in his youth, loses the past and is dead for the future.
Euripides
Let us take things as we find them: let us not attempt to distort them into what they are not... We cannot make facts. All our wishing cannot change them. We must use them.
John Henry Newman
We see tremendous excitement from small-business people about the administration and about the attention and commitment that the president has to do things that really make a difference. I think they recognize that health care is one of those. I think they recognize that what we've been doing in the Recovery Act with our loan programs has mattered.
Karen Mills
Often, we are quick to find blame with others but yet are unable to give constructive responses. There seems to be a tendency to doubt almost everything. Do we not have faith in our own people's strengths and in our institutions? Can we afford distrust amongst ourselves?
Pratibha Patil
We need to recognise that what really matters isn't buying more and more consumer goods, but family, friends, and knowing that we are doing something worthwhile with our lives. Helping to reduce the appalling consequences of world poverty should be part of that reassessment.
Peter Singer
You must never be satisfied with losing. You must get angry, terribly angry, about losing. But the mark of the good loser is that he takes his anger out on himself and not his victorious opponents or on his teammates.
Richard M. Nixon
I think an education is not only important, it is the most important thing you can do with your life.
Dean Kamen
The relationship between a manufacturer and his advertising agency is almost as intimate as the relationship between a patient and his doctor. Make sure that you can life happily with your prospective client before you accept his account.
David Ogilvy
The 'anti-globalisation movement' is the most significant proponent of globalisation - but in the interests of people, not concentrations of state-private power.
Noam Chomsky
I was labeled a troublemaker, my mom an unfit mother, and I was not welcome anywhere.
Ryan White
When I see a dolphin, I know it's just as smart as I am.
Don Van Vliet
Man must search for what is right, and let happiness come on its own.
Johann Pestalozzi
Everyone who understands the nature of God rightly necessarily knows that God is to be believed and hoped in, that he is to be loved and called upon, and to be heard in all things.
William Ames
The poets have been mysteriously silent on the subject of cheese.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
