Remember this practical piece of advice: Never come into the theatre with mud on your feet. Leave your dust and dirt outside. Check your little worries, squabbles, petty difficulties with your outside clothing -- all the things that ruin your life and draw your attention away from your art -- at the door.

All of us every single year, we're a different person. I don't think we're the same person all our lives.

Steven Spielberg

Excessive fear is always powerless.

Aeschylus

The only disadvantage of an honest heart is credulity.

Sir Philip Sidney

If people would forget about utopia! When rationalism destroyed heaven and decided to set it up here on earth, that most terrible of all goals entered human ambition. It was clear there'd be no end to what people would be made to suffer for it.

Nadine Gordimer

There is no end of craving. Hence contentment alone is the best way to happiness. Therefore, acquire contentment.

Sivananda

I get up, go and get a coffee, and go do the crossword - I'm loyal to one particular paper, the 'Guardian' - and that's my idea of a perfect morning.

Laura Marling

What began the change was the very writing itself. Let no one lightly set about such a work. Memory, once waked, will play the tyrant.

C.S. Lewis

So, I'm always around video games but I've always been interested in them from a visual perspective, with the graphic design and that whole thing. I don't know if that comes from my love of photography or what but that's always what's held my interest about them.

Sophia Bush

Generally speaking, if a human being never shows anger, then I think something's wrong. He's not right in the brain.

Dalai Lama

A woman's love is like the morning dew. It's just as likely to settle on a horse turd as a rose.

Larry McMurtry

I can remember when I was a bit of an ETA fan myself. It was in 1973, when a group of Basque militants assassinated Adm. Carrero Blanco. The admiral was a stone-faced secret police chief, personally groomed to be the successor to the decrepit Francisco Franco. His car blew up, killing only him and his chauffeur with a carefully planted charge, and not only was the world well rid of another fascist, but, more important, the whole scheme of extending Franco's rule was vaporized in the same instant. The dictator had to turn instead to Crown Prince Juan Carlos, who turned out to be the best Bourbon in history and who swiftly dismantled Franco's entire system. If this action was 'terrorism,' it had something to be said for it. Everyone I knew in Spain made a little holiday in their hearts when the gruesome admiral went sky-high.

Christopher Hitchens

Being part of 'Natural Nylon' is a great way to have an influence on the films that get out there. I love films and it gives me an input.
