For the ordinary man is passive. Within a narrow circle (home life, and perhaps the trade unions or local politics) he feels himself master of his fate, but against major events he is as helpless as against the elements. So far from endeavouring to influence the future, he simply lies down and lets things happen to him.

George Orwell

I believe that every single event in life happens in an opportunity to choose love over fear.

Oprah Winfrey

Temperamentally I'm not a natural producer, because I don't have the patience.

Damian Lewis

If a man has been his mother's undisputed darling he retains throughout life the triumphant feeling, the confidence in success, which not seldom brings actual success along with it.

Sigmund Freud

I'm not afraid of death but I am afraid of dying. Pain can be alleviated by morphine but the pain of social ostracism cannot be taken away.

Derek Jarman

Of all the thirty-six alternatives, running away is best.

Chinese Proverb

Resolve to be thyself: and know, that he who finds himself, loses his misery.

Matthew Arnold

Nothing makes a man so selfish as work.

George Bernard Shaw
