Obviously, my life and my job in 2010 is very different from Peggy's experience in the 1960s. I exist in a world that enjoys more equality between men and women. But I don't take any of that into my performance. I just want to play the character as who she is as an individual - scene to scene.

I think often, and never without a certain fear of Nessim's love for Justine. It coloured his unhappiness with a kind of ecstasy Yet one touch of humour would have saved him from such dreadful comprehensive suffering.

Lawrence Durrell

As a society, I think we express our cultural mores through our politics. We're trying constantly to figure out what's OK and what's not OK. And it's hard, because our society is constantly buffeted by gale force winds of technology. Things are always changing.

Daniel H. Wilson

Keep time! How sour sweet music is when time is broke and no proportion kept! So is it in the music of men's lives. I wasted time and now doth time waste me.

William Shakespeare

So many people release albums before Christmas and they get lost in the Christmas rush.

Bonnie Tyler

Be happy while you're living, for you're a long time dead.

Scottish Proverb

There are always two parties, the party of the Past and the party of the Future: the Establishment and the Movement. At times the resistance is reanimated, the schism runs under the world and appears in Literature, Philosophy, Church, State and social customs.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Fatalism, whose solving word in all crises of behavior is All striving is vain, will never reign supreme, for the impulse to take life strivingly is indestructible in the race. Moral creeds which speak to that impulse will be widely successful in spite of inconsistency, vagueness, and shadowy determination of expectancy. Man needs a rule for his will, and will invent one if one be not given him.

William James

Chance favors only those who court her.

Charles Nicolle

Stay is a charming word in a friend's vocabulary.

Louisa May Alcott

We are to regard the mind, not as a piece of iron to be laid upon the anvil and hammered into any shape, nor as a block of marble in which we are to find the statue by removing the rubbish, nor as a receptacle into which knowledge may be poured; but as a flame that is to be fed, as an active being that must be strengthened to think and to feel -- and to dare, to do, and to suffer.

Mark Hopkins

The terrible fluidity of self-revelation.

Henry James
