Fiction is like a spider's web, attached ever so lightly perhaps, but still attached to life at all four corners.

The reason I chose the movies that I did was based on where they were being filmed.

Meryl Streep

I would love to work with Adam Sandler. Because then all I'd have to do is just turn the camera on and off.

David Zucker

Silence is the perfectest herald of joy: I were but little happy, if I could say how much

William Shakespeare

The conqueror and king in each one of us is the knower of truth. Let the knower awaken in us and drive the horses of the mind, emotions, and physical body on the pathway which that king has chosen.

George S. Arundale

All my fans tell me what a glamorous life I have, but I tell them how hard I work and how many nights I spend alone with my dogs, eating chicken pot pie in my bedroom.

Shannen Doherty

It seems to me that those songs that have been any good, I have nothing much to do with the writing of them. The words have just crawled down my sleeve and come out on the page.

Joan Baez

It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to, than I have ever known.

Charles Dickens

Robots are interesting because they exist as a real technology that you can really study - you can get a degree in robotics - and they also have all this pop-culture real estate that they take up in people's minds.

Daniel H. Wilson

Poor human nature, what horrible crimes have been committed in thy name!

Emma Goldman

Do not squander time for that is the stuff life is made of.

Benjamin Franklin

Could man be drunk for ever With liquor, love, or fights, Lief should I rouse at mornings And lief lie down of nights. But men at whiles are sober And think by fits and starts, And if they think, they fasten Their hands upon their hearts.

A. E. Housman

Manuscript: something submitted in haste and returned at leisure.

Oliver Herford
