I don't trust Santa Barbara as far as I can spit. I am afraid that if I went back there, it's possible that I could be run through their system, their judicial system, and wind up in some county jail where I could be killed and I'm not gonna take that chance.

For where there is true love, a man is neither out of measure lifted up by prosperity, nor cast down by mishap; whether you give or take away from him, so long as he keeps his beloved, he has a spring of inward peace. Thus, even though thy outward man grieve, or weep downright, that may well be borne, if only thy inner man remain at peace, perfectly content with the will of God.

Johannes Tauler

Our minds have the need to know. When we dont know we make assumptions - they make us feel safer than not knowing. And we are pretty much always making assumptions.

Don Miguel Ruiz, The Four Agreem

The beauty of stature is the only beauty of men.

Michel de Montaigne

My best background is, like, smash opponents. I all the time go forward. I all the time try to take down somebody. Make him give up. This is my style, you know. This is what I do all my life.

Writing a novel without being asked seems a bit like having a baby when you have nowhere to live.

Lucy Ellman

It's about the power of design and the power of the human spirit. It's above paying anybody to do something stupid for money like reality television does - like ambushing people.

Genevieve Gorder

The most important thing is to have a good relationship with the bike... you have to understand what she wants. I think of a motorcycle as a woman, and I know that sounds silly, but it's true.

Valentino Rossi

The kind of funny irony is that a lot of people talk about ethical meat eating as if it's a way to care about things, but also not to alienate yourself from the rest of the world. But it's so much more alienating than vegetarianism.

Jonathan Safran Foer

Money isn't a major motivating force in my life. Nor is my profession. There are other things that I care more about than being an actor.

Kevin Costner

I know people think we drive around in these nice cars and we do whatever we want and our parents will pay our credit cards, but that's not the case. Sure, my parents were generous I got a nice car at 16, but at 18 I was cut off. I've worked really hard. I opened the store myself.

Kim Kardashian

Monkey can make a long jump with his muscles; and man, with his wisdom!

Mehmet Murat ildan

There is a physical relationship with a woman that you don't have with anybody else, but that's not about love. Love is a spiritual thing.
