I think the measure of your success to a certain extent will be the amount of things written about you that aren't true.

No one who achieves success does so without acknowledging the help of others. The wise and confident acknowledge this help with gratitude.

I'm proof against that word failure. I've seen behind it. The only failure a man ought to fear is failure of cleaving to the purpose he sees to be best.

George Eliot

Historically the director has been the key creative element in a film and we must maintain that. We must protect that, in spite of the fact that there is new technology that's continually trying to erode that.

John Frankenheimer

Even the youngest of us may be wrong sometimes.

George Bernard Shaw

Sympathizing and selfish people are alike, both given to tears.

Leigh Hunt

The properties which differentiate living matter from any kind of inorganic imitation may be instinctively felt, but can hardly be formulated without expert knowledge.

Oliver Joseph Lodge

Our pleasures are shallow, our sorrows are deep.

American Indian Proverb, Cheyenn

It is folly for a man to pray to the gods for that which he has the power to obtain by himself.

Epicurus

To sin by silence, when we should protest,Makes cowards out of men. The human raceHas climbed on protest. Had no voice been raisedAgainst injustice, ignorance, and lust,The inquisition yet would serve the law,And guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare, must speak and speak againTo right the wrongs of many. Speech, thank God,No vested power in this great day and landCan gag or throttle. Press and voice may cryLoud disapproval of existing ills;May criticise oppression and condemnThe lawlessness of wealth-protecting lawsThat let the children and childbearers toilTo purchase ease for idle millionaires. Therefore I do protest against the boastOf independence in this mighty land. Call no chain strong, which holds one rusted link. Call no land free, that holds one fettered slave. Until the manacled slim wrists of babesAre loosed to toss in childish sport and glee,Until the mother bears no burden, saveThe precious one beneath her heart, untilGods soil is rescued from the clutch of greedAnd given back to labor, let no manCall this the land of freedom.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox

There are no grades of vanity, there are only grades of ability in concealing it.

Mark Twain

It is one of those stories that you just want to keep going and going - even after the last page has been reached. Kristie Leigh Maguire

When we have nothing to worry about we are not doing much, and not doing much may supply us with plenty of future worries.
