The movies we love and admire are to some extent a function of who we are when we see them.

There are persons who, when they cease to shock us, cease to interest us.

Francis H. Bradley

Mistakes are painful when they happen, but years later a collection of mistakes is what is called experience.

Denis Waitley

I just live in the truth and think that every moment counts.

Debra Winger

You don't know about me without you have read a book by the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer; but that ain't no matter. That book was made by Mr. Mark Twain, and he told the truth, mainly. There was things which he stretched, but mainly he told the truth.

Mark Twain

It is the destiny of the weak to be devoured by the strong.

Otto von Bismarck

The future hasn't happened yet and the past is gone. So I think the only moment we have is right here and now, and I try to make the best of those moments, the moments that I'm in.

Annie Lennox

So the being grows rings; identity becomes robust. What was fiery and furtive like a fling of grain cast into the air and blown hither and thither by wild gusts of life from every quarter is now methodical and orderly and flung with a purpose--so it seems.

Virginia Woolf

William Cowper

And you also have to do movies that are about commerce because that's what is required of the industry today.

Halle Berry

There are two kinds of statistics, the kind you look up, and the kind you make up.

Rex Stout

An intelligent plan is the first step to success. The man who plans knows where he is going, knows what progress he is making and has a pretty good idea when he will arrive.

Basil S. Walsh

Saying the Bible is not a book about science is like saying a cookbook is not a book about chemistry.
