We have magnificent brains, but we use a great deal of our brilliance to keep ourselves stuck and ignorant, to keep ourselves from not shining. We are so afraid of our beauty and radiance and brilliance because it scared the adults around us when we were children.

It's always good to remember where you come from and celebrate it. To remember where you come from is part of where you're going.

Anthony Burgess

You must have love as the core it takes courage to be willing to constantly tell the truth to each other and risk letting the relationship go.

Kenny Loggins

The only positive finding which could be drawn from the first series, was the conclusion that the relationships obviously had a more complicated lay-out than had been thought, for the effects were so varied that no obedience to any law could be discovered.

Walter Rudolf Hess

I went and took golf lessons so Dad would let me play with him. I was just terrible... but I was able to have a wonderful time just walking around with Dad. I can see the real pleasure of that game.

David Hyde Pierce

Stem cell research is the key to developing cures for degenerative conditions like Parkinson's and motor neuron disease from which I and many others suffer. The fact that the cells may come from embryos is not an objection, because the embryos are going to die anyway.

Stephen Hawking

All I wanted was to be big, to be in show business and to travel... and that's what I've been doing all my life.

Count Basie

I was never the ingenue, so hopefully that'll make it easier to age and still work. I know a lot of actors who are really dissatisfied with where they're at even though some of them are huge stars and I feel like, 'Oh, my God, you're at the top.' Something interesting will come. It always does. I have faith.

Hope Davis

Los Angeles gives one the feeling of the future more strongly than any city I know of. A bad future, too, like something out of Fritz Lang's feeble imagination.

Henry Miller

I try to look at design from a more conceptual standpoint.

Cynthia Rowley

There are two great forces, God's force of good and the devil's force of evil, and I believe Satan is alive and he is working, and he is working harder than ever, and we have many mysteries that we don't understand.

Billy Graham

To do good is noble. To tell others to do good is even nobler and much less trouble.

Mark Twain

We find our own skin more fascinating than any abstract painting.
