When we lose the right to be different, we lose the privilege to be free.

We have this window of opportunity; we have a chance to make something real happen. Something possible happen, to live beyond our fear — think about that, and help us. Help lift us up, help us fight this fight to change, — transform — this country in a fundamental way.

Michelle Obama

When you ain't got no money, you gotta get an attitude.

Richard Pryor

When you're walking down the street, or you're at a restaurant, someone catches your eye because they have their own look. It goes way beyond what they're wearing - into their mannerisms, the way they smile, or just the way they hold themselves.

Mary-Kate Olsen

Mercy but murders, pardoning those that kill.

William Shakespeare

A large part of acting is just pretending. You get to work with these other great make-believers, all making believe as hard as they can.

Jeff Bridges

Elton John

Roused by the lash of his own stubborn tail our lion now will foreign foes assail.

John Dryden
