We are as much informed of a writer's genius by what he selects as by what he originates.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Kindness is an inner desire that makes us want to do good things even if we do not get anything in return. It is the joy of our life to do them. When we do good things from this inner desire, there is kindness in everything we think, say, want and do.

Emanuel Swedenborg

Naguib Mahfouz

I'm really an actor first. I'd love to do more straight plays.

John Irving

Roy Croft

To achieve, you need thought. You have to know what you are doing and that's real power.

Ayn Rand

As many thoughts in succession substantiate themselves, we shall by and by stand in a new world of our own creation, and no longer strangers and pilgrims in a traditionary globe. My friends have come to me unsought.... Will these, too, seperate themselves from me again, or some of them? I know not, but I fear it not; for my relation to them is so pure, that we hold by simple affinity, and the Genius of my life being thus social, the same affinity will exert its energy on whomsoever is as noble as these men and women, wherever I may be.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

But there's always a first time for everything

Melissa de la Cruz
