Every person is the creation of himself, the image of his own thinking and believing. As individuals think and believe, so they are.

I look to longevity. I just consider myself an actress and getting good roles. If being a 'superstar' gets me good roles, then that's a positive thing. But my goal isn't just to be a superstar. It's to act for a long time.

Penelope Ann Miller

If God did not exist it would be necessary to invent Him. But all nature cries aloud that He does exist.

Voltaire

A man must first care for his own household before he can be of use to the state. But no matter how well he cares for his household, he is not a good citizen unless he also takes thought of the state. In the same way, a great nation must think of its own internal affairs; and yet it cannot substantiate its claim to be a great nation unless it also thinks of its position in the world at large.

Theodore Roosevelt

When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.

Henny Youngman

In politics a week is a very long time.

Harold Wilson

Even though I have a nice house, nice family, the rest of my generation is still in South Central L.A. My cousins, my brothers, my sisters, they don't wanna move out. They don't want to and they don't have the means to sustain it. That's where my heart is and that's what I think about all the time.

Ice Cube

The apparent multiplication of gods is bewildering at the first glance, but you soon discover that they are the same GOD. There is always one uttermost God who defies personification. This makes Hinduism the most tolerant religion in the world, because its one transcendent God includes all possible gods. In fact Hinduism is so elastic and so subtle that the most profound Methodist, and crudest idolater, are equally at home with it.

George Bernard Shaw

Whatever you do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius and power and magic in it.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

We lie in the lap of immense intelligence.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

The true past departs not, no truth or goodness realized by man ever dies, or can die; but all is still here, and, recognized or not, lives and works through endless change.

Thomas Carlyle

Goodness does not more certainly make men happy than happiness makes them good.

Walter Savage Landor

Grant what thou commandest and then command what thou wilt.

Saint Augustine of Hippo
