I'm probably a bit romantic about it, but I think we humans miss having contact with fire. We need it.

Jamie Oliver

The future belongs to those who prepare for it today.

Malcolm X

Life doesn't get easier or more forgiving, we get stronger and more resilient.

...the proliferation of luminous fungi or iridescent crystals in deep caves where the torchlessly improvident hero needs to see is one of the most obvious intrusions of narrative causality into the physical universe.

Terry Pratchett

I see nothing wrong with the human trait to desire. In fact, I consider it integral to our success mechanism. Becoming attached to what we desire is what causes the trouble. If you must have it in order to be happy, then you are denying the happiness of the here and now.

Peter McWilliams

Sylvester Stallone

My work requires acting at its most committed - it demands actors of enormous resilience, but also intelligence and wit. It doesn't work for narcissistic or selfish actors.

Mike Leigh

Vladimir Nabokov

I don't like to go over curbs, because I don't want to be hard on the car.

Alain Prost

My mom was a Democrat and I was scared to death that she was gonna blow it. First I was going to hell with Monroe, and now to Republican hell with Nixon.
