Knowledge of human nature is the beginning and end of political education.

I've always just adored music. It's my first love, really. I admire and respect people in the music business. You really have to work hard and diligently. Sometimes actors can be lazy and get away with it, but you can't do that if you're a musician.

What the world wants is character. The world is in need of those whose life is one burning love, selfless. That love will make every word tell like a thunderbolt.

Swami Vivekananda

If a nation's literature declines, the nation atrophies and decays.

Ezra Pound

Being at the center of a film is a burden one takes on with innocence -- the first time. Thereafter, you take it on with trepidation.

Daniel Day Lewis

A teacher is never too smart to learn from his pupils. But while runners differ, basic principles never change. So it's a matter of fitting your current practices to fit the event and the individual. See, what's good for you might not be worth a darn for the next guy.

Bill Bowerman

Give me odorous at sunrise a garden of beautiful flowers where I can walk undisturbed.

Walt Whitman

Remember, when life's path is steep, to keep your mind even.

Horace

In dreams begins responsibility.

William Butler Yeats

Friend, I am not suggesting at all. You see, I know now. Let us be frank. Our opinions were not honestly come by. We simply found ourselves in contact with a certain current of ideas and plunged into it because it seemed modern and successful. At College, you know, we just started automatically writing the kind of essays that got good marks and saying the kind of things that won applause. When, in our whole lives, did we honestly face, in solitude, the one question on which all turned: whether after all the Supernatural might not in fact occur? When did we put up one moment's real resistance to the loss of our faith?

C.S. Lewis

In the case of an earthquake hitting Las Vegas, be sure to go straight to the Keno Lounge. Nothing ever gets hit there.
