A man is literally what he thinks.

In any weather, at any hour of the day or night, I have been anxious to improve the nick of time, and notch it on my stick too; to stand on the meeting of two eternities, the past and the future, which is precisely the present moment; to toe that line. You will pardon some obscurities, for there are more secrets in my trade than in most men's, and yet not voluntarily kept, but inseparable from its very nature.

Henry David Thoreau

I love glamour and artificial beauty. I love the idea of artifice and dressing up and makeup and hair.

Dita Von Teese

O loss of sight, of thee I most complain! Blind among enemies, O worse than chains, dungeon or beggary, or decrepit age! Light, the prime work of God, to me is extinct, and all her various objects of delight annulled, which might in part my grief have eased. Inferior to the vilest now become of man or worm; the vilest here excel me, they creep, yet see; I, dark in light, exposed to daily fraud, contempt, abuse and wrong, within doors, or without, still as a fool, in power of others, never in my own; scarce half I seem to live, dead more than half.

John Milton

I am beginning to learn that it is the sweet, simple things of life which are the real ones after all.

Laura Ingalls Wilder

C.S. Lewis

People who cannot find time for recreation are obliged sooner or later to find time for illness.

John Wanamaker

You never know how many apples there are in a seed.

The most convincing argument against early parenthood is that you are in a relationship that is likely to fall apart before that child grows up.

Tony Parsons

Canadians know that the promise of a recession didn't happen because of anything we did here. If you look at all the causes of the recession, problems in mortgage markets, the problems in the banking sector, the problems in government finance in countries like Greece, none of those problems were in present Canada.

Stephen Harper

Aristotle was once asked what those who tell lies gain by it. Said he, That when they speak truth they are not believed.

Diogenes Laërtius

As a former teacher and a mother and grandmother, I know firsthand the importance of a quality education.

Sue Kelly

I love doing serious movies for adults.

Carla Gugino
