No, I'm happy to go on living the life I've chosen. I'm a university teacher and I like my job.

Antonio Tabucchi

I just sort of take it from a character perspective, and I don't know if he was necessarily spiritual, but I do think he had hope. He was a character that was comfortable having hope in his life, and hope is faith.

Ryan Gosling

The face of evil is always the face of total need.

William S. Burroughs

It's not a field, I think, for people who need to have success every day: if you can't live with a nightly sort of disaster, you should get out. I wouldn't describe myself as lacking in confidence, but I would just say that the ghosts you chase you never catch.

John Malkovich

Celebrate what you want to see more of.

Thomas J. Peters

Ivan Illich

C.S. Lewis

Robert Walser

Disappointment is inevitable. But to become discouraged, there's a choice I make. God would never discourage me. He would always point me to himself to trust him.

Charles Stanley

Every revolution was first a thought in one man?s mind.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

You don't have to be naked to be sexy.

Nicole Kidman
