There are only three ages for women in Hollywood--Babe, District Attorney, and Driving Miss Daisy.

Everywhere you look in science, the harder it becomes to understand the universe without God.

Robert Herrman

I would be more frightened as a writer if people thought my movies were like science fiction.

Neil LaBute

Nothing in this world is difficult, but thinking makes it seem so. Where there is true will, there is always a way.

Wu Cheng'en

Science is intimately integrated with the whole social structure and cultural tradition. They mutually support one other -- only in certain types of society can science flourish, and conversely without a continuous and healthy development and application of science such a society cannot function properly.

Talcott Parsons

I wish I could just go tell all the young women I work with, all these fabulous women, 'Believe in yourself and negotiate for yourself. Own your own success.' I wish I could tell that to my daughter. But it's not that simple.

Sheryl Sandberg

The Epistle is a correction of profession without life, and most valuable in this respect.

John Nelson Darby

But the chief penalty is to be governed by someone worse if a man will not himself hold office and rule.

Plato

When difficulties are overcome they begin blessing.

Proverb

But in the depths of his heart, the older he became, and the more intimately he knew his brother, the more and more frequently the thought struck him that this faculty of working for the public good, of which he felt himself utterly devoid, was possibly not so much a quality as a lack of something --not a lack of good, honest, noble desires and tastes, but a lack of vital force, of what is called heart, of that impulse which drives a man to choose someone out of the innumerable paths of life, and to care only for that one. The better he knew his brother, the more he noticed that Sergey Ivanovitch, and many other people who worked for the public welfare, were not led by an impulse of the heart to care for the public good, but reasoned from intellectual considerations that it was a right thing to take interest in public affairs, and consequently took interest in them. Levin was confirmed in this generalization by observing that his brother did not take questions affecting the public welfare or the question of the immortality of the soul a bit more to heart than he did chess problems, or the ingenious construction of a new machine.

Leo Tolstoy

I am not willing to risk the lives of German soldiers for countries whose names we cannot spell properly.

Volker Ruhe

The greatest blessing that one can get from music is that it makes an artist immensely satisfied with life irrespective of the financial condition in which they may be.

Ram Narayan

As good almost kill a man as kill a good book; who kills a man kills a reasonable creature, God's image; but he who destroys a good book, kills reason itself, kills the image of God, as it were in the eye.

John Milton
