I am very honored for all the distinctions and accolades, but what I am most sensitive to is my clientele and the fact they are pleased with my food and my restaurants.

Everyone who achieves success in a great venture, solves each problem as they came to it. They helped themselves. And they were helped through powers known and unknown to them at the time they set out on their voyage. They keep going regardless of the obstacles they met.

W. Clement Stone

If I look confused it is because I am thinking.

Samuel Goldwyn

A civilized society is one which tolerates eccentricity to the point of doubtful sanity.

Robert Frost

O! she doth teach the torches to burn bright It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night Like a rich jewel in an Ethiop's ear; Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear.- Romeo -

William Shakespeare

Neither with those nor with the others, with all I agree and dissent; in all part of truth and part of error must be seen.

Michael Servetus

When a load of bricks, dumped on a corner lot, can arrange themselves into a house; when a handful of springs and screws and wheels, emptied on a desk, can gather themselves into a watch, then and not until then will it seem sensible, to some of us at least, to believe that all these thousands or millions of worlds could have been created, balanced and set to revolving in their separate orbits -- all without any directing intelligence at all.

Bruce Barton

Everything's changed. The technology is the big thing changing now, the way movies like 'Alice' or 'Avatar' are made. And technology on the other side, the audience side. Word spreads so fast now on a movie, with the Internet, and piracy is something coming down the line like in the music industry.

Richard D. Zanuck

Be wise as a serpent and wary as a dove!

Mark Twain

We were poor too. Why, if I wasn't born a boy, I'd have nothing to play with.

Rodney Dangerfield

Forgive! How many will say, forgive, and find a sort of absolution in the sound to hate a little longer!

Alfred Lord Tennyson

With the evolution of technology, kids really need to be computer-savvy.

Ryan Seacrest

I'm in favor of any technology that makes my work available to the reading public at a reasonable price.

Walter Jon Williams
