We believe the ice sheet was not around all the time. It was only around during cool snaps of the climate.

We live and breathe words. .... It was books that made me feel that perhaps I was not completely alone. They could be honest with me, and I with them. Reading your words, what you wrote, how you were lonely sometimes and afraid, but always brave; the way you saw the world, its colors and textures and sounds, I felt--I felt the way you thought, hoped, felt, dreamt. I felt I was dreaming and thinking and feeling you. I dreamed what you dreamed, wanted what you wanted--and then I realized that truly I just wanted you.

Cassandra Clare

If it wasn't for the fun and money, I really don't know why I'd bother.

Terry Pratchett

Even as we enumerate their shortcomings, the rigor of raising children ourselves makes clear to us our mothers' incredible strength. We fear both. If they are not strong, who will protect us? If they are not imperfect, how can we equal them?

Anna Quindlen

I never got tired of Tom and Jerry, but I did have a dream of doing more with my life than making cartoons.

Joseph Barbera

A pleasant comedy, which paints the manners of the age, and exposes a faithful picture of nature, is a durable work, and is transmitted to the latest posterity. But a system, whether physical or metaphysical, commonly owes its success to its novelty; and is no sooner canvassed with impartiality than its weakness is discovered.

David Hume, The History of Engla

I want to be like Tom Cruise from 'The Outsiders' and go on and do amazing movies for a long time.

Ashton Kutcher

The trouble with most of us is that we would rather be ruined by praise than saved by criticism.

Norman Vincent Peale

I'm very comfortable with the nature of life and death, and that we come to an end. What's most difficult to imagine is that those dreams and early yearnings and desires of childhood and adolescence will also disappear. But who knows? Maybe you become part of the eternal whatever.

Hugh Hefner

Before you came into my life, I believed that God had abandoned me.Now I know that He has blessed me beyond measure. -sir Bannor-

Teresa Medeiros

There are two things people want more than sex and money -- recognition and praise.

Mary Kay Ash

In all things it is better to hope than to despair.

Johann von Goethe

Extraordinary how potent cheap music is.

Noel Coward
