I think what made it difficult for people to get, and still makes it difficult for people to get, is the theatrical nature of the work and the fact that, my music doesn't exist without the performance-art element.

It's also a question of finding good material and interesting roles. I'm not the only actress out there, and good parts just don't fall into your lap that easily. But I like most of the films I've made recently and so I'm pretty positive about the future.

Winona Ryder

So I was shampooing at 14. But I've always thought that had I the opportunity for an education, I would have been an architect. There's no question about it.

Vidal Sassoon

Americans are benevolently ignorant about Canada, while Canadians are malevolently well informed about the United States.

First of all, Buddhism is neither pessimistic nor optimistic. If anything at all, it is realistic, for it takes a realistic view of life and the world. It looks at things objectively (). It does not falsely lull you into living in a fool's paradise, nor does it frighten and agonize you with all kinds of imaginary fears and sins. It tells you exactly and objectively what you are and what the world around you is, and shows you the way to perfect freedom, peace, tranquility and happiness.

Walpola Rahula

My life has been a roller coaster ride, but somehow I've always been able to land on my feet and still play the guitar.

Ace Frehley

Up until age 40, most men are just not as mature as women. So, it makes sense that a lot of women date up in age a bit.

Patti Stanger

Live so that when your children think of fairness and integrity, they think of you.

H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

I speak onstage to try to establish some method of communication. The songs are supposed to be a way of communicating. But speech and drinks and sometimes chocolates are also a way of communicating.

Jarvis Cocker

In this great age of communication, there a lot of people you can't actually understand. I know everyone tweets, and twits and texts and all that, but actually we've all got voices, and it is awfully nice to hear them and if you can understand what people are saying.

Penelope Keith

I haven't any language weak enough to depict the weakness of my spiritual life. If I weakened it enough it would cease to be language at all. As when you try to turn the gas-ring a little lower still, and it merely goes out.

C.S. Lewis

Wherever they burn books they will also, in the end, burn human beings.

Heinrich Heine

We never love a person, but only qualities.

Blaise Pascal
