They say that in the second before our death, each of us understands the real reason for our existence, and out of that moment, heaven or hell is born.

I'm blessed to have cool roles in these big movies.

Jeremy Renner

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

St. Jerome

Religion makes them crazy. Not a woman I ever met wasn't crazy with religion.

Orson Scott Card

I am learning, as I make my way through my first continent, that it is remarkably easy to do things, and much more frightening to contemplate them.

Ted Simon, Jupiter's Travels

As soon go kindle fire with snow, as seek to quench the fire of love with words.

William Shakespeare

Some of the writers I admire who seem very, very funny and very emotional to me can develop a closeness with the reader without giving too much of themselves away. Lorrie Moore comes to mind, as does David Sedaris. When they write, the reader thinks that they're being trusted as a friend.

Sloane Crosley

If you think you can then you can.

Stephen Richards

People don't know where to place me. Terry Gilliam used me as a quirky cop in 'Twelve Monkeys', and then he hired me again to be an effeminate hotel clerk in 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas'. Another time, I was shooting this indie film 'The Souler Opposite' and six days a week, I'm playing this big puppy dog, then I come to the 'NYPD Blue' set and become this scumbag.

Christopher Meloni

We have met the enemy and it is us.

Walt Kelly, "Pogo comic strip"

What is important in knowledge is not quantity, but quality. It is important to know what knowledge is significant, what is less so, and what is trivial.

Leo Tolstoy

Marriage is a coming together for better or for worse, hopefully enduring, and intimate to the degree of being sacred.

William O. Douglas

Neatness begets order; but from order to taste there is the same difference as from taste to genius, or from love to friendship.

Johann Kaspar Lavater
