Movies about space raise those questions of what we're doing here, and that inevitably introduces a spiritual dimension.

If men lived like men indeed, their houses would be temples -- temples which we should hardly dare to injure, and in which it would make us holy to be permitted to live; and there must be a strange dissolution of natural affection, a strange unthankfulness for all that homes have given and parents taught, a strange consciousness that we have been unfaithful to our fathers honor, or that our own lives are not such as would make our dwellings sacred to our children, when each man would fain build to himself, and build for the little revolution of his own life only.

John Ruskin

So what is a good meditator? A good meditator meditates.

Allan Lokos

In LA, where I live, it's all about perfectionism. Beauty is now defined by your bones sticking out of your decolletage. For that to be the standard is really perilous for women.

Alanis Morissette

Let no one till his death be called unhappy. Measure not the work until the day's out and the labor done.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Desire creates the power.

Raymond Holliwell

I dare say there may be some men and women in the Armed Forces who are so decent that they would say: Give the Iraqi people money, we do not want to be paid back. That is the strength of our country.

Lindsey Graham

Home is the most popular, and will be the most enduring of all earthly establishments.

Channing Pollock

If we resist our passions, it is more due to their weakness than our strength.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Documentaries are the first line of education, and the second line of education is dramatization, such as 'The Pacific'.

Steven Spielberg

Well, sir. I look at facts. And the fact is that our world is dying and if we don't all do our best to save it, we aren't going to last much longer.

A.J. Lauer

There is a strange reluctance on the part of most people to admit they enjoy life.

William Lyon Phelps

No further evidence is needed to show that mental illness is not the name of a biological condition whose nature awaits to be elucidated, but is the name of a concept whose purpose is to obscure the obvious.
