Practice is the best of all instructors.

La vida es mi tortura y la muerte será mi descanso.

William Shakespeare

The truth is, we have this idea that late night is about creativity and being cool, but that's not our job. Our job is to get as many people watching the commercials in between our show. That's the reality of it.

Jimmy Kimmel

If we are not being maligned, scandalizing those who still sleep in the church, then we are missing the incarnational call to love the world's most vulnerable, the world's exiled, the world's most wounded. Our concern should be what the poor and prostituted think of us, what the God of the universe thinks of us, not what those around us think of us.

Sarah Lance

Love means not ever having to say you're sorry.

Erich Segal

I just don't believe that you have to come in and insult people when you want to change things.

Sydney Schanberg

Great minds are to make others great. Their superiority is to be used, not to break the multitude to intellectual vassalage, not to establish over them a spiritual tyranny, but to rouse them from lethargy, and to aid them to judge for themselves.

William Ellery Channing

I'd love to do historical pictures more, but I don't know if I can.

Oliver Stone

There are some people who have the quality of richness and joy in them and they communicate it to everything they touch. It is first of all a physical quality; then it is a quality of the spirit.

Thomas Wolfe

He who has truth at his heart need never fear the want of persuasion on his tongue.

John Ruskin

An unjust law is itself a species of violence. Arrest for its breach is more so. Now the law of nonviolence says that violence should be resisted not by counter-violence but by nonviolence. This I do by breaking the law and by peacefully submitting to arrest and imprisonment.

Mahatma Gandhi

In necessary things, unity; in doubtful things, liberty; in all things, charity.

Anne Baxter

I use many props. The props act as cue cards reminding me of what to say next.
