I love my parents. But I'm almost 28 and it's not fun to be asked, 'What are you doing today? What do you want for dinner? When are you going to be home?' It just makes you feel like a kid. It's this juxtaposition of feeling annoyed and really lucky to have people who love you so much.

Relations are simply a tedious pack of people, who haven't got the remotest knowledge of how to live, nor the smallest instinct about when to die.

Oscar Wilde

I have learned now that while those who speak about ones miseries usually hurt, those who keep silence hurt more.

C.S. Lewis

I arrived in California with no job, no car, and no money, but, like millions of other girls, a dream.

Victoria Principal

Though the dungeon, the scourge, and the executioner be absent, the guilty mind can apply the goad and scorch with blows.

Lucretius

Sometimes God allows what he hates to accomplish what he loves.

Max Lucado

Difficulty is the excuse history never accepts.

Edward R. Murrow

My purpose... to go on with my heart and soul, devoting all my energies to Girl Scouts, and heart and hand with them, we will make our lives and the lives of the future girls happy, healthy and holy.

Juliette Gordon Low

The majority does not rule in America, but the minority shouldn't hijack it. And it's because we're afraid. They have isolated us and made us feel as though we're alone. We're not.

Glenn Beck

A smile abroad is often a scowl at home.

Alfred Tennyson

Conscience does make cowards of us all.

William Shakespeare

I never want to make a film. I don't wake up in the morning going, 'Ooh, I'd really love to be on set making a film today'. I'm aware that other contemporary film directors perceive film-making as what they do, as what they have to do. But I would hope that I am more catholic in my tastes.

Stephen Daldry

When a girl ceases to blush, she has lost the most powerful charm of her beauty.

St. Gregory The Great
