I grew up in the '80s where there's a lot of these kind of post-apocalyptic, post-comet, post-whatever it was, so that always captured my imagination a lot as a little kid, that idea of getting access to secret places and being able to roam around where you're not supposed to.

The history of all the great characters of the Bible is summed up in this one sentence: They acquainted themselves with God, and acquiesced His will in all things.

Richard Cecil

Ours is an abiding faith in the cause of human freedom. We know it is God's cause.

Thomas E. Dewey

To win this war, we need a commander in chief, not a professor of law standing at the lectern.

Sarah Palin

Smiles form the channels of a future tear.

Lord Byron

I think cinema is closer to allegories than to reality. It's closer to our dreams.

Manuel Puig

Truth is what your contemporaries let you get away with.

Richard M. Rorty

I try to work and enjoy life, and that's about all.

Curtis Armstrong

Mystical explanations are thought to be deep the truth is that they are not even shallow.

Friedrich Nietzsche

No free people ever existed, or can ever exist, without keeping the purse strings in their own hands. Where this is the case, they have a constitutional check upon the administration, which may thereby by brought into order without violence. But when such a power is not lodged in the people, oppression proceeds uncontrolled in its career, till the governed, transported into rage, seek redress in the midst of blood and confusion.

John Dickinson

What the hell is nostalgia doing in a science-fiction film? With the whole universe and all the future to play in, Lucas took his marvelous toys and crawled under the fringed cloth on the parlor table, back into a nice safe hide hole, along with Flash Gordon and the Cowardly Lion and Luke Skywalker and the Flying Aces and the Hitler Jugend. If there's a message there, I don't think I want to hear it.

Ursula K. LeGuin

As long as any adult thinks that he, like the parents and teachers of old, can become introspective, invoking his own youth to understand the youth before him, he is lost.

Margaret Mead

Beauty is about perception, not about make-up. I think the beginning of all beauty is knowing and liking oneself. You can't put on make-up, or dress yourself, or do you hair with any sort of fun or joy if you're doing it from a position of correction.
