I have become a queer mixture of the East and the West, out of place everywhere, at home nowhere.

Suddenly is the soul oned to God when it is truly peaced in itself: for in Him is found no wrath. And thus I saw when we are all in peace and in love, we find no contrariness, nor no manner of letting through that contrariness which is now in us.

Julian of Norwich

Will Rogers

You make the mistake of thinking you have to choose, that you have to do what you want, that there are conditions for happiness.

A canvas waiting for our embroideries.

Albert Camus

So I won an Oscar. It's amazing. I've got that for the rest of my life for a performance I am proud of. It nearly killed me. I am really proud of the film. That's it, moving on.

Kate Winslet

Autumn wins you best by this its mute appeal to sympathy for its decay.

Robert Browning
