As we give presents at Christmas, we need to recognize that sharing our time and ourselves is such an important part of giving.

Before I do a play I say that I hope it's going to be for as short a time as possible but, once you do it, it is a paradoxical pleasure. One evening out of two there are five minutes of a miracle and for those five minutes you want to do it again and again. It's like a drug.

Isabelle Huppert

My advice to you is not to inquire why or whither, but just enjoy your ice cream while it's on your plate.

Thornton Wilder, The Skin of Our

You can hate me. You can go out there and say anything you want about me, But you will love me later because I told you the truth.

Mary J. Blige

What God intended for you goes far beyond anything you can imagine.

Oprah Winfrey

A dimple on the chin, the devil within.

Scottish Proverb

It is as hard to satirize well a man of distinguished vices, as to praise well a man of distinguished virtues.

Jonathan Swift

I think I'd be a great mom, honestly. I don't think I'll have any problem giving them all the love in the world. Discipline will be the hard part.

Queen Latifah

What a pity that in life we only get our lessons when they are of no use to us.

Oscar Wilde

Our natural, inalienable rights are now considered to be a dispensation from government, and freedom has never been so fragile, so close to slipping from our grasp as it is at this moment.

Ronald Reagan

A hungry stomach has no ears.

Proverb

The sumptuous age of stars and images is reduced to a few artificial tornado effects, pathetic fake buildings, and childish tricks which the crowd pretends to be taken in by to avoid feeling too disappointed. Ghost towns, ghost people. The whole place has the same air of obsolescence about it as Sunset or Hollywood Boulevard.

Jean Baudrillard

I was a peaceful sedentary man, a lover of a quiet life, with no appetite for perils and commotions. But I was beginning to realise that I was very obstinate.

John Buchan
