I tell people, 'It's just like a cliche, but it's true: In Hollywood, dreams can come true.'

Life isn't a matter of milestones, but of moments.

Rose Kennedy

For the progress of scientific knowledge will lead to a constant increase of expenditure.

Richard Cobden

God loved us, and to prove it to us became human in order to become our brother in the flesh. He became poor, the poorest of the poor, in order to be able to include us all as his brothers (and sisters). He became a little child in order to be like children, even born, children from the slums.God has loved us and has given us all that he is and has. The Father gave the Son, the Son gave his very self, the Holy Spirit became our habitual sanctifier.... How grateful I should be to this kind Savior!

Peter Julian Eymard

If we want to know what happiness is we must seek it, not as if it were a part of gold at the end of the rainbow, but among human beings who are living richly and fully the good life. If you observe a really happy man you will find him building a boat, writing a symphony, educating his son, growing double Dahlias in his garden. He will not be searching for happiness as if it were a collar gold button that has rolled under the cupboard in his bed room. He will have become aware that he is happy in the course of living 24 crowded hours of the day. If you live only for yourself you are always an immediate danger of being bored to death with the repetition of your own views and interests. No one has learned the meaning of living until he has surrendered his ego to the service of his fellowmen. If your ambition has the momentum of an express train at full speed, if you can no longer stop your mad rush for glory, power, or intellectual supremacy, try to divert your energies into socially useful channels before it is too late.For those who seek the larger happiness and greater effectiveness open to human beings there can be but one philosophy of life, a philosophy of constructive altruism. The truly happy man is always a fighting optimist. Optimism includes not only altruism but also social responsibility, social courage and objectivity. The good life demands a working philosophy as an orientating map of conduct. This is the golden way of life. This is the satisfying life. This is the way to be happy though human.

W. Beran Wolfe, 'How To Be Happy

I don't look for much to come out of government ownership as long as we have Democrats and Republicans.

Kin Hubbard

My dad taught me true words you have to use in every relationship. Yes, baby.

Star Jones

It is as healthy to enjoy sentiment as to enjoy jam.

G. K. Chesterton

Success is important only to the extent that it puts one in a position to do more things one likes to do.

Sarah Caldwell

A girl's legs are her best friends... but even the best of friends must part.

Redd Foxx

And nice to have seen you, Sue. Good luck, he called after her as she disappeared down the path, a pretty girl in a hurry, her smooth hair swinging, shining - just such a young woman as Nancy might have been. Then, starting home, he walked toward the trees, and under them, leaving behind him the big sky, the whisper of wind voices in the wind-bent wheat.

Truman Capote, The closing of In

I don't work at being ordinary.

Paul McCartney

The Holocaust also shows us how a combination of events and attitudes can erode a society's democratic values.
