Friedrich Nietzsche

Thomas Taylor

You were not born with the habit of brushing your teeth. With persistent action, over a period of time, you developed the habit. Now, I'll bet you would never consider going a week without brushing.

Paul R. Scheele

Look at things... as they can be.

Dr. David Schwartz

Men fear thought as they fear nothing else on earth more than ruin more even than death. Thought is subversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible, thought is merciless to privilege, established institutions, and comfortable habit. Thought looks into the pit of hell and is not afraid. Thought is great and swift and free, the light of the world, and the chief glory of man.

Bertrand Russell

To know what you prefer instead of humbly saying Amen to what the world tells you ought to prefer is to have kept your soul alive.

The movies I made when I was 14 or 15, I have a hard time looking at those. Those were the awkward years. I don't know if anybody can look at something they did when they were 14 and not wince.

Jodie Foster

You don't walk away if you love someone. You help the person.

Hillary Clinton
