I hated golf when we first started, but a big part of the training process was falling in love with this sport, so I went on tour with the UCLA Team.

Most human beings have an almost infinite capacity for taking things for granted. That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons of history.

Aldous Huxley

I used my imagination to make the grass whatever color I wanted it to be.

Whoopi Goldberg

Is there in all the history of human folly a greater fool than a clergymen in politics?

Pat Robertson

There are so many charlatans in the world of education. They teach for a couple of years, come up with a few clever slogans, build their websites, and hit the lecture circuit. In this fast-food-society, simple solutions to complex problems are embraced far too often. We can do better. I hope that people who read this book realize that true excellence takes sacrifice, mistakes, and enormous amounts of effort. After all, there are no shortcuts.

Rafe Esquith

True love makes the thought of death frequent, easy, without terrors it merely becomes the standard of comparison, the price one would pay for many things.

Stendhal

Mississippi Mermaid was a very special experience because we only had the dialogues for the scenes we were shooting the night before.

Catherine Deneuve

The one thing we truly don't ? understand about God, about Life, and about Humanity is that we are ONE!?

Timothy Pina

A twenty-one-year-old writer is likely to be inhibited by a lack of usable experience. Childhood and adolescence were something I knew.

Ian Mcewan

At times one remains faithful to a cause only because its opponents do not cease to be insipid.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts.

Rachel Carson

Take the whole range of imaginative literature, and we are all wholesale borrowers. In every matter that relates to invention, to use, or beauty or form, we are borrowers.

Wendell Phillips

Literature transforms and intensifies ordinary language, deviates systematically from everyday speech. If you approach me at a bus stop and murmur Thou still unravished bride of quietness, then I am instantly aware that I am in the presence of the literary.

Terry Eagleton
