Tact is one of the first mental virtues, the absence of it is fatal to the best talent.

I think movies have much more magic than the theater. Theater can be a magical experience, but movies thrust their subjectivity on you in a more profound way.

Zoe Kazan

Only to the extent that someone is living out this self transcendence of human existence, is he truly human or does he become his true self. He becomes so, not by concerning himself with his self's actualization, but by forgetting himself and giving himself, overlooking himself and focusing outward.

Victor Frankl

To appreciate heaven well, it's good for a person to have some fifteen minutes of hell.

Will Carleton

Pessimism is, in brief, playing the sure game. You cannot lose at it; you may gain. It is the only view of life in which you can never be disappointed. Having reckoned what to do in the worst possible circumstances, when better arise, as they may, life becomes child's play.

Thomas Hardy

I feel like I was writing as I was learning to talk. Writing was always a go to form of communication.

Frank Ocean

Self-trust is the first secret of success

Ralph Waldo Emerson

I will show you fear in a handful of dust.

TS (Thomas Stearns) Eliot

I am not going to answer to this so-called court, out of respect for the truth and the will of the Iraqi people. I've said what I've said, and I'm not guilty.

Saddam Hussein

If you want to be certain, you should never get married. You should never change jobs. In fact, you might as well just stay home. Because I don't know anybody who is certain. That need to be certain is just procrastination.

Mark Burnett

I'm grateful this ordeal is over, and I'm so looking forward to getting back to the job I love.

Paula Abdul

You are an extremely valuable, worthwhile, significant person even though your present circumstances may have you felling otherwise.

James Newman

Truth...never comes into the world but like a bastard, to the ignominy of him that brought her forth.

John Milton
