The fewer our wants the more we resemble the Gods.

To do a dull thing with style-now that's what I call art.

Charles Bukowski

He must have a truly romantic nature, for he weeps when there is nothing at all to weep about.

Oscar Wilde

There's a very small group of elite actresses who are my age, who people want to work with. It's not easy to get a good job with good actors.

Amanda Peet

Nature is a language and every new fact one learns is a new word; but it is not a language taken to pieces and dead in the dictionary, but the language put together into a most significant and universal sense. I wish to learn this language--not that I may know a new grammar, but that I may read the great book which is written in that tongue.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Christmas is a season not only of rejoicing but of reflection.

Winston Churchill

Yes, I understand why things had to happen this way. I understand his reason for causing me pain. But mere understanding does not chase away the hurt. It does not call upon the sun when dark clouds have loomed over me. Let the rain come then if it must come! And let it wash away the dust that hurt my eyes!

Jocelyn Soriano

Great ideas come into the world as quietly as doves. Perhaps then , if we listen attentively we shall hear, among the uproar of empires and nations, the faint fluttering of wings, the gentle stirrings of life and hope. Some will say this hope lies in a nation; others in a man. I believe rather that it is awakened, revived, nourished by millions of solitary individuals whose deeds and works every day negate frontiers and the crudest implications of history. Each and every one, on the foundations of their own suffering and joy builds for all.

Albert Camus

Everybody has a little bit of Watergate in him.

Billy Graham

India is a global power and an important partner with whom we are building an intense, broad and enduring relationship.

Pierre Pettigrew

Sometimes you have to forsake what you want, to get what you want.

E'yen A. Gardner

I believe that the greatest truths of the universe don't lie outside, in the study of the stars and the planets. They lie deep within us, in the magnificence of our heart, mind, and soul. Until we understand what is within, we can't understand what is without.

Anita Moorjani

Disease an never be conquered, can never be quelled by emotion's willful screaming or faith's symbolic prayer. It can only be conquered by the energy of humanity and the cunning in the mind of man. In the patience of a Curie, in the enlightenment of a Faraday, a Rutherford, a Pasteur, a Nightingale, and all other apostles of light and cleanliness, rather than of a woebegone godliness, we shall find final deliverance from plague, pestilence, and famine.

Sean O'Casey
