In the beginning, we had a great deal of freedom, and Jerry wrote completely out of his imagination - very, very freely. We even had no editorial supervision to speak of, because they were in such a rush to get the thing in before deadline. But later on we were restricted.

Love is like pi -- natural, irrational, and very important.

Lisa Hoffman

In other words, we are never freer than when we become most ourselves, most human, most just, most excellent, and the like.

Os Guinness

In all pointed sentences, some degree of accuracy must be sacrificed to conciseness.

Samuel Johnson

My kids love it. I thought I was the coolest dad in the world when I got to be in a Bond film, but 'Harry Potter', too? Well, I think I qualify for a medal for exceptional parenting or something, don't you?

Robbie Coltraine

Feminism is a word that I identify with. The term has become synonymous with vitriolic man-hating but it needs to come back to a place where both men and women can embrace it. It is particularly important for women in developing countries.

Annie Lennox

Your enjoyment of the world is never right, till every morning you awake in Heaven: see yourself in your Father's palace and look upon the skies, the earth, and the air as celestial joys: having such a reverend esteem of all, as if you were among the angels.

Thomas Traherne

Bill Maher

The opportunity, number one, to work with Ang Lee is an amazing thing for me.

Sam Elliott

It didn't even occur to me that I'm the last person in the world who should play salsa or Brazilian music.

If I were seriously ill and in desperate need of a physician, and if by some miracle I could secure either Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine, or a young doctor fresh from the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, with his equipment comprising the latest developments in the technologies and techniques of medicine, I should, of course, take the young doctor. On the other hand, if I were commissioned to find a teacher for a group of adolescent boys and if, by some miracle, I could secure either Socrates or the latest Ph.D. from Teachers College, with his equipment of the latest technologies and techniques of teaching, with all due respect to the College that employs me and to my students, I am fairly certain that I would jump at the chance to get Socrates.

William C. Bagley

So much of religion is exegesis. I would rather follow in the footprints of Christ than all of the dogma.

Christy Turlington

There is only one duty, only one safe course, and that is to try to be right.

Sir Winston Churchill
