I was associated with a woman who I was involved with and had a relationship with. She asked for money. I felt as though I was being blackmailed or there was some sort of extortion.

Acting is all about big hair and funny props... All the great actors knew it. Olivier knew it, Brando knew it.

Harold Ramis

Nationalism is power-hunger tempered by self-deception.

George Orwell

Our work is a scream of freedom.

Christo

Music makes me high on stage, and that's the truth. It's like being almost addicted to music.

Jimi Hendrix

I have found no better expression than religious for confidence in the rational nature of reality, insofar as it is accessible to human reason. Whenever this feeling is absent, science degenerates into uninspired empiricism.

Albert Einstein

John Berger

There is just no reason why the richest nation in the world can't provide health care to all its people.

Christine Gregoire

The duty of youth is to challenge corruption.

Kurt Cobain

Frankly, I was horrified by life, at what a man had to do simply in order to eat, sleep, and keep himself clothed. So I stayed in bed and drank. When you drank the world was still out there, but for the moment it didn't have you by the throat.

Charles Bukowski

You do not pay the price of success, you enjoy the price of success.

Zig Ziglar

If you asked somebody, 'what do you wish for in life?' they wouldn't say 'happiness.'

It seemed like a foreign concept to wish for something that specific and that singular.

Connie Nielsen

All the beautiful waitresses existed like eternal responsibilities.
