You and I and everybody in show business and the entertainment industry fly by the seat of our pants. We don't know quite what is going to happen.

Beauty of style and harmony and grace and good rhythm depends on simplicity.

Plato

Communism doesn't work because people like to own stuff.

Frank Zappa

It is evident that skepticism, while it makes no actual change in man, always makes him feel better.

Ambrose Bierce

Only the old are innocent. That is what the Victorians understood, and the Christians. Original sin is a property of the young. The old grow beyond corruption very quickly.

Malcolm Bradbury

Religious structure often dilutes the spiritual experience.

Steve Maraboli

What I got which was unusual, especially as a child actress, was parents who believed that Hollywood was not that important. They told us education, family, health, all come first and they meant it.

Danica McKellar

You just let your lower self go, and then it takes on all these aspects of the society - the city with horns blowing, the people yelling things at each other, and the all-in-all violence and chaos of the city. Put that on stage with music, and that's what this is.

Alice Cooper

Pride breakfasted with plenty, dined with poverty, and supped with infamy.

Benjamin Franklin

Wisdom is the understanding of celestial things to which the Spirit is brought by Love.

Honore de Balzac

Construed as turf, home just seems a provisional claim, a designation you make upon a place, not one it makes on you. A certain set of buildings, a glimpsed, smudged window-view across a schoolyard, a musty aroma sniffed behind a garage when you were a child, all of which come crowding in upon your latter-day senses -- those are pungent things and vivid, even consoling. But to me they are also inert and nostalgic and unlikely to connect you to the real, to that essence art can sometimes achieve, which is permanence.

Richard Ford

I could a tale unfold whose lightest wordWould harrow up thy soul, freeze thy young blood,Make thy two eyes like stars start from their spheres,Thy knotted and combined locks to part,And each particular hair to stand on endLike quills upon the fretful porpentine.But this eternal blazon must not beTo ears of flesh and blood.List, list, O list!

William Shakespeare

I think the way to keep a friendship is to respect that everybody is different.

Emma Bunton
