The State has but one face for me: that of the police. To my eyes, all of the State's ministries have this single face, and I cannot imagine the ministry of culture other than as the police of culture, with its prefect and commissioners.

I don't need plastic in my body to validate me as a woman.

My family and I would never receive royalties on the revenue that my materials brought into the church materials that were created on our own personal time.

Robert H. Schuller

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity.

Albert Einstein

If you want to kill any idea in the world today, get a committee working on it.

Charles Franklin Kettering

One third, more or less, of all the sorrow that the person I think I am must endure is unavoidable. It is the sorrow inherent in the human condition, the price we must pay for being sentient and self-conscious organisms, aspirants to liberation, but subject to the laws of nature and under orders to keep on marching, through irreversible time, through a world wholly indifferent to our well-being, toward decrepitude and the certainty of death. The remaining two thirds of all sorrow is homemade and, so far as the universe is concerned, unnecessary.

Aldous Huxley

A representative is free delivery; she's a personal beauty consultant. Some people want that high touch.

Andrea Jung

Historical truth is that, and that alone, which reveals the forces that go to mould the social life of mankind.

If you're a basketball player and you don't stop and take pictures with your fans, you can have an amazing game and everyone still loves you.

Kim Kardashian

An orgasm joins you to the past. Its timelessness becomes the brotherhood; the brethren are lovers; they extend the family. I share that sexuality. It was then, is now and will be in the future.

Derek Jarman

I think the Spirit, is the one thing we have to rely on. It has been handed to us as a live and precious coal. And each generation has to make that decision whether they want to blow on that coal to keep it alive or throw it away... Our language, our histories and culture are like a big ceremonial fire that's been kicked and stomped and scattered...Out in the darkness we can see those coals glowing. But our generation, whether in tribal government or wherever we find ourselves--Choctaw, Cherokee, Chickasaw, Creek, Seminole--are coal gatherers. We bring the coals back, assemble them and breathe on them again, so we can spark a flame around which we might warm ourselves.

Gary White Deer

The greatest blessing granted to mankind come by way of madness, which is a divine gift.

Socrates

I've choreographed all of my movies.
