It's never acceptable to target civilians. It violates the Geneva Accords, it violates the international law of war and it violates all principles of morality.

No matter what your history has been, your destiny is what you create today. What are you going to create?

Sir Walter, being strangely surprised and put out of his countenance at so great a table, gives his son a damned blow over the face. His son, as rude as he was, would not strike his father, but strikes over the face the gentleman that sat next to him and said Box about: twill come to my father anon.

John Aubrey

Gratitude is a twofold love -- love coming to visit us, and love running out to greet a welcome guest.

Henry Van Dyke

Though Truth and Falsehood be Near twins, yet Truth a little elder is.

John Donne

I've always wanted to be an actress, ever since I was a little girl. I always played the mom and I played my sister as the daughter. I wanted to be an actress on television and movies instead of just around the house.

Dakota Fanning

True pain teaches us to grow. You aren't finished yet. Dylan needs you.

Rebecca Salas

The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn't.

JeanLuc Godard

David Bailey

I'm a writer of faith who worries about the intolerance of religion. I look at the past and fear we haven't learned from it. I believe that humanity is capable of evil as well as great acts of courage and goodness. I have hope. Deep down, I believe in the human spirit, although sometimes that belief is shaken.

Julianna Baggott

To love is to admire with the heart; to admire is to love with the mind.

Theophile Gautier

It's easy to look back and see it, and it's easy to give the advice. But the sad fact is, most people don't look beneath the surface until it's too late.

Wendelin Van Draanen

There are two insults no human being will endure: that he has no sense of humor, and that he has never known trouble.

Sinclair Lewis
