Becoming a mother cannot help but change things. An author's life is reflected in their writing, whether they want it to be or not, and parenthood is one of the biggest life changes there is.

I was the hero of the young insurgent working class art movement.

Elia Kazan

He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable loce-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder.

Albert Einstein

The well-bred contradict other people. The wise contradict themselves.

Oscar Wilde

I just wish the crowd I was associated with was more passionate about what they were doing and less consumed with the commerce of the art form.

Shia LaBeouf

A sedentary life is the real sin against the Holy Spirit. Only those thoughts that come by walking have any value.

Friedrich Nietzsche

It's a big deal for me to say I'm over politics.

Shirley MacLaine

I think it is totally wrong and terribly harmful if education is defined as acquiring knowledge.

William Glasser

I never thought my marriage could be stronger, or I could be closer to Bill. We prayed on our own, but now we prayed together and you'll never know how much that means until you do it.

Giuliana Rancic

A lie twice believed is self decieved

Brandon Mull

Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the world earth revolves - slowly, evenly, without rushing toward the future.

Thich Nhat Hanh

To be worthy of the name, he must be free of two things; the force of tradition and tyranny of his own passions.

Bertrand Russell

Education brings about opportunity, and in turn inspiration.

Bill Frist
