My main concern is theater, and theater does not reflect or mirror society. It has been stingy and selfish, and it has to do better.

There have been many great men that have flattered the people who never loved them.

William Shakespeare

My mother-in-law speaks not a word of English. I speak not a word of Tajiki. So I smile at her ingratiatingly and she fixes me with a beady eye.

Wilbur Smith

Like all parents, my husband and I just do the best we can, hold our breath and hope we've set aside enough money for our kid's therapy.

Michelle Pfeiffer

Reading a novel, War and Peace for example, is no Catnap. Because a novel is so long, reading one is like being married forever to somebody nobody knows or cares about.

Kurt Vonnegut

He never even thought of tenderness and emotion; his considerations about Durham remained cold. Durham didn't dislike him, he was sure. That was all he wanted. One thing at a time. He didn't so much as have hopes, for hope distracts, and he had a great deal to see to.

E.M. Forster

Bergeron's epitaph for the planet, I remember, which he said should be carved in big letters in a wall of the Grand Canyon for the flying-saucer people to find, was this: WE COULD HAVE SAVED IT BUT WE WERE TOO DOGGONE CHEAP Only he didn't say 'doggone.'

Kurt Vonnegut

The Invisible is movingSoftly and soothingI feel it insideIt is youIt is my feeling for youI want to give it lifeMy whole life

Rixa White

Handsome is as handsome does.

J.R.R. Tolkien

The mystical bond of brotherhood makes all men brothers

Thomas Carlyle

I am thankful I can see much to admire in all religions.

Alfred Russel Wallace

Men greet each other with a sock on the arm, women with a hug, and the hug wears better in the long run.

Edward Hoagland

I try not to diet because it never really works for me, if I tell myself I can't eat something then I tend to want to eat everything in sight.

Leona Lewis
