A screen actor is compensated in the knowledge that millions will see his performance at one time, where only hundreds will see it on the stage.

We are really the conveyors of truth in a very critical time and people need to know that truth.

Judd Rose

I believe when it comes to love, there's something intangible about who we are attracted to, and I don't think I have a pattern.

Taylor Swift

Nice work in there, Herondale, setting the place on fire, Gabriel observed. Good thing we were there to clean up after you, or the whole plan would have gone down in flames, along with the shreds of your reputation. Are you implying that shreds of my reputation remain intact? Will demanded with mock horror. Clearly I have done something wrong. Or not doing something wrong as the case may be. He banged on the side of the carriage. Thomas! We must away at once to the nearest brothel! I seek scandal and low companionship.

Cassandra Clare

Now an embryo may seem like some scientific or laboratory term, but in fact the embryo contains the unique information that defines a person. All you add is food and climate control, and some time, and the embryo becomes you or me.

Todd Akin

When I stop working, I go out and start working again. Most people paint a picture, or whatever they do, and go home. For me, it has to be continuous.

David Bailey

I've seen it too many times in Hollywood. Talking about a relationship in public can jinx it. And if you have your picture taken together, you might as well start packing your bags.

Gina Gershon

The beauty of the soul shines out when a man bears with composure one heavy mischance after another, not because he does not feel them, but because he is a man of high and heroic temper.

Aristotle

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Never underestimate the power of the State to act out its own massive fantasies.

Don DeLillo

Once respect has been initiated, war is less provocative.

Andrea Scholer

I have often thought that if heaven had given me choice of my position and calling, it should have been on a rich spot of earth, well watered, and near a good market for the productions of the garden. No occupation is so delightful to me as the culture of the earth, and no culture comparable to that of the garden. Such a variety of subjects, some one always coming to perfection, the failure of one thing repaired by the success of another, and instead of one harvest, a continued one thro' the year. Under a total want of demand except for our family table. I am still devoted to the garden. But tho' an old man, I am but a young gardener.

Thomas Jefferson, letter to Char

The whole secret to our success is being able to con ourselves into believing that we're going to change the world because statistically we are unlikely to do it.
