Things have never been more like the way they are today in history.

Just praise is only a debt, but flattery is a present.

Samuel Johnson

I was writing short films and I was going through this really, really, really terrible end of a relationship that I didn't want to be going through. It was too much for me to process and all of a sudden I had this idea for my first feature film and I knew right away I had to start writing it.

Evan Glodell

All anger is not sinful, because some degree of it, and on some occasions, is inevitable. But it becomes sinful and contradicts the rule of Scripture when it is conceived upon slight and inadequate provocation, and when it continues long.

Babe Paley

People think I take some sort of masochistic pleasure out of putting out music that's gonna be unpopular.

Billy Corgan

Come near, that no more blinded by man's fate, I find under the boughs of love and hate, In all poor foolish things that live a day, Eternal beauty wandering on her way.

William Butler Yeats

This type of man who is devoted to the study of wisdom is always most unlucky in everything, and particularly when it comes to procreating children; I imagine this is because Nature wants to ensure that the evils of wisdom shall not spread further throughout mankind.

Desiderius Erasmus

I can't just react on the strength of an email and three pages of synopsis, and say I'm going to take off for three months of my life.

Emmanuelle Beart

The philosophers have only interpreted the world in various ways; the point, however, is to change it.

Karl Marx

Posterity weaves no garlands for imitators.

Friedrich von Schiller

If we think we have ours and don't owe any time or money or effort to help those left behind, then we are a part of the problem rather than the solution to the fraying social fabric that threatens all Americans.

Marian Wright Edelman

Beauty doesn't die with the beholder; it moves on. Hiding in the shadows, afraid of the light, she flees to find another host, possessing the body like a demon in need of exorcising.

Jennifer Hudock

Do well and you will have no need for ancestors.

Voltaire (FrançoisMarie Arouet)
