When one experiences truth, the madness of finding fault with others disappears.

Originality is a thing we constantly clamour for, and constantly quarrel with.

Thomas Carlyle

George Clooney's 'Ides of March' could be the most under-appreciated movie of the year. In 20 years they're gonna go back and say, 'Oh, that was American politics in that time period.' I follow politics, I love it, and that movie is so authentic.

Harvey Weinstein

American high school students trail teenagers from 14 European and Asian countries in reading, math and science. We're even trailing France.

Suzanne Fields

...I'm shy in person - so afraid to confess my love - I need a go-between - our mutual friend, the Moon...

John Geddes

remember Stephen King's First Rule of Writers and Agents, learned by bitter personal experience: You don't need one until you're making enough for someone to steal ... and if you're making that much, you'll be able to take your pick of good agents.

Stephen King

I don't try to focus on anything that doesn't affect me personally and how I go out there every single day. I'm just going to continue to work hard and focus on what I can control.

Tim Tebow

There is a constant in the average American imagination and taste, for which the past must be preserved and celebrated in full-scale authentic copy; a philosophy of immortality as duplication. It dominates the relation with the self, with the past, not infrequently with the present, always with History and, even, with the European tradition.

Umberto Eco

Don't wish it were easier, wish you were better.

Jim Rohn

The finest clothing made is a person's own skin, but, of course, society demands something more than this.

Mark Twain

The exterior cannot do without the interior since it is from this, as from life, that it derives much of its inspiration and character.

Stephen Gardiner

Being born in a duck yard does not matter, if only you are hatched from a swan's egg.

Hans Christian Andersen, The Ugl

The creative act lasts but a brief moment, a lightning instant of give-and-take, just long enough for you to level the camera and to trap the fleeting prey in your little box.

Henri Cartier-Bresson
