Disney has the best casting. If he doesn't like an actor he just tears him up.

A woman simply is, but a man must become. Masculinity is risky and elusive. It is achieved by a revolt from woman, and it is confirmed only by other men. Manhood coerced into sensitivity is no manhood at all.

Camille Anna Paglia

The patience of the American public with dilatory diplomatic delays will be very limited.

Tom Lantos

Cease trying to work everything out with your minds. It will get you nowhere. Live by intuition and inspiration and let your whole life be Revelation.

Eileen Caddy

What Romantic terminology called genius or talent or inspiration is nothing other than finding the right road empirically, following one's nose, taking shortcuts.

Italo Calvino

If one has no vanity in this life of ours, there is no sufficient reason for living.

Leo Tolstoy

Getting along with men isn't what's truly important. The vital knowledge is how to get along with a man, one man.

Phyllis McGinley

Nature gave us pain as a messaging device to tell us that we are approaching, or that we have exceeded, our limits in some way.

Ray Dalio

Someone should be studying the whole system, however crudely that has to be done, because no gluing together of partial studies of a complex nonlinear system can give a good idea of the behavior of the whole.

Murray Gell-Mann

As an actor, your life experience is just as important as studying.

Jane Badler

If you can't tell a spoon from a ladle, then you're fat!

Demetri Martin

It's lovely to have money to give away - that's the bonus of winning the Nobel.

Doris Lessing
