But love wasn't about sacrifice, and it wasn't about falling short of someone's expectations. By definition, love made you better than good enough; it redefined perfection to include your traits, instead of excluding them. All any of us wanted, really, was to know that we counted. That someone else's life would not have been as rich without us here.

One is always alone in suffering; the fact is depressing when one happens to be the sufferer, but it makes pleasure possible for the rest of the world.

Aldous Huxley

It doesn't matter who you are, or where you come from, or how much money you've got in your pocket. You have your own destiny and your own life ahead of you.

Lady Gaga

Men who do things without being told draw the most wages.

Rodney Dangerfield

Ideas are refined and multiplied in the commerce of minds. In their splendor, images effect a very simple communion of souls.

Gaston Bachelard

No virtuous man -- that is, virtuous in the Y.M.C.A. sense -- has ever painted a picture worth looking at, or written a symphony worth hearing, or a book worth reading, and it is highly improbable that the thing has ever been done by a virtuous woman.

H. L. Mencken

Being a celebrity you always get really good seats to sporting events but you never get as good seats as the photographers get. And I really love sports. So one of the scams I have going now is I want to learn sports photography so I can get better seats at a sporting event.

Drew Carey

The exact contrary of what is generally believed is often the truth.

Jean de la Bruyere

The American attitude towards efficiency and execution should always underlie architecture.

Helmut Jahn

Hope is itself a species of happiness, and, perhaps, the chief happiness, which this world affords.

William Samuel Johnson

When she is happy, she can't stop talking, when she is sad she doesn't say a word.

Ann Brashares

I went to Ohio University studying arts and history, and playing football. But I was only interested in girls, my pals and sports. I only did the minimum for school.

Ed O'Neill

I would like to do maybe a smaller romantic comedy.

Linda Fiorentino
