We take the elevator to the third floor, to the office of Dr. Harrison Chance. His name alone has put me off. Why not Dr. Victor?

After working for years in Hollywood where the actors have taken over, it was a real relief to get down there and not only have some children, but also have some actors that had no attitude.

Phillip Noyce

Happiness for me is getting to write about the most important things I know.

Richard Ford

I do have a side of me that would just love to be stuck in the woods and have to stick it out and be really resourceful.

Rachel McAdams

The difference between science and the fuzzy subjects is that science requires reasoning while those other subjects merely require scholarship.

Robert A. Heinlein

Your life is the sum result of all the choices you make, both consciously and unconsciously. If you can control the process of choosing, you can take control of all aspects of your life. You can find the freedom that comes from being in charge of yourself.

Robert Foster Bennett

Although I get so much fan mail from Great Britain, tell me, am I more famous there than Michael Madsen?

Tom Sizemore

The man who questions opinions is wise. The man who quarrels with facts is a fool.

Frank Garbutt

Charity is in the heart of man, and righteousness in the path of men. Pity the man who has lost his path and does not follow it and who has lost his heart and does not know how to recover it. When people's dogs and chicks are lost they go out and look for them and yet the people who have lost their hearts do not go out and look for them. The principle of self-cultivation consists in nothing but trying to look for the lost heart.

Mencius (Mengzi Mengtse)

There are few ways in which good people do more harm to those who take them seriously than to defend the gospel with arguments that won't hold water. Many of the difficulties encountered by young people going to college would be avoided if parents and teachers were more careful to distinguish between what they know to be true and what they think may be true. Impetuous youth, upon finding the authority it trusts crumbling, even on unimportant details, is apt to lump everything together and throw the baby out with the bath.

Henry B. Eyring

We credit scarcely any persons with good sense except those who are of our opinion.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

I love my past, I love my present. I am not ashamed of what I have had, and I am not sad because I no longer have it.

Sidonie Gabrielle Colette

There is a kind of courtesy in skepticism. It would be an offense against polite conventions to press our doubts too far.

George Santayana
