I didn't want to play a lawyer. I didn't want to play a doctor. I didn't want to play a single dad. I wanted to do something I felt I could learn from, something that would be a challenge and something that would not dry up.

Truth isn't always beauty, but the hunger for it is.

Nadine Gordimer

Fear is the mother of morality.

Friedrich Nietzsche

When I consider the short duration of my life, swallowed up in the eternity before and after, the little space I fill, and even can see, engulfed in the infinite immensity of space of which I am ignorant, and which knows me not, I am frightened, and am astonished at being here rather than there, why now rather than then?

Blaise Pascal

I wanted your songs. You wanted my songs more than you wanted my happiness. So you took my happiness, and stole my songs.

Orson Scott Card

You must not demand the failure of your peers, because the more good things that are around in film, in television, in theater - why the better it is for all of us.

Jerome Lawrence

A lot of people would be embarrassed to admit that they were on 'Barney', but I embrace the fact. I just had such a wonderful time doing that show. I learned what a camera and prop is, and all that. I learned my manners too, so I guess that's a good thing!

Selena Gomez

O my brethren, my heart is enlarge towards you. I trust I feel something of that hidden, but powerful presence of Christ, whilst I am preaching to you.

Take a leap of faith and begin this wondrous new year by believing. Believe in yourself. And believe that there is a loving Source - a Sower of Dreams - just waiting to be asked to help you make your dreams come true.

Sarah Ban Breathnach

Love is blind friendship closes its eyes.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Sorrow is the mere rust of the soul. Activity will cleanse and brighten it.

Samuel Johnson

You know that I am living proof that the American Dream is real. Growing up, our congressman cut through government bureaucratic red tape to help my mom buy our first house. That's the kind of congressman I'll be.

Geoff Davis

Some of our weakness is born in us, some of it comes through education; it is a big question as to which gives us the most trouble.

Johann von Goethe
