It's nice to be a part of history but people should get it right. I may not be perfect, but I'm bloody close.

The finest manners in the world are awkwardness and fatuity, when contrasted with a finer intelligence.

Henry David Thoreau

if you tell yourself you feel fine, you will.

Jodi Picoult

I appreciate a slow-burn romance. In most movies, everyone is just tearing their clothes off in the first scene.

Emily Blunt

Wars throughout history have been waged for conquest and plunder.... the working class who fight all the battles, the working class who make the supreme sacrifices, the working class who freely shed their blood and furnish their corpses, have never yet had a voice in either declaring war or making peace. It is the ruling class that invariably does both. They alone declare war and they alone make peace....They are continually talking about their patriotic duty. It is not their but your patriotic duty that they are concerned about. There is a decided difference. Their patriotic duty never takes them to the firing line or chucks them into the trenches.

Eugene Debs

There is much to dislike about President Obama's approach to the financial crisis. But opposition, it seems, will have to come from somewhere other than conservatism. The party out of power is also a party out of touch.

Thomas Frank

Anger is as a stone cast into a wasp's nest.

Proverb

I'm a girl who loves fashion. I'm such a Cinderella - I love to put on a great dress and heels. It's fun!

Maria Bello

Generations to come will find it difficult to believe that a man such as Gandhi ever walked the face of this earth.

Albert Einstein

My parents took an interest in nothing, at home no books, no records. My mother and my father are the emblem of indifference, dryness and bad taste. My father is also terribly stingy, in life as well as in feelings: I have never seen him filling up the bathtub.

Vincent Gallo

I have a Ph.D. in cell biology. And that's really manual labor. I mean, experimental science, you do it with your hands. So it's very different. You're out there in a lab, cleaning test tubes, and it just wasn't that fascinating.

Barbara Ehrenreich

I'm kind of a dork. I don't have much game. I'm not particularly comfortable in bars or clubs. I much prefer being home playing Scrabble, having dinner with a couple friends, going to see a movie, or losing a whole weekend to Season 14 of Law and Order or The Simpsons.

Wentworth Miller

In a movie like this, the relationship between the two guys is crucial. It sinks or swims on how these two guys are together. I think we did a good job.

Eddie Murphy
