Our vanity is the constant enemy of our dignity.

My parents are wonderful, and I'm really lucky - but my mom has always been almost exclusively a right-brained person. She goes completely on her feelings of things, on her intuition, and so she instilled that in my brothers and I.

I'd love to do a movie where the monster is human, where the issue is not otherworldly, or horror or science fiction.

My wife is the most awesome person in the universe. She's made this experience much less miserable for me, with her compassion, patience and understanding.

Wil Wheaton

Io non sono un duro. Non lo sono mai stato. In vita mia, se devo essere completamente sincero, credo di non aver mai preso una decisione. Non mi piacciono molto le decisione. Per decidere devi essere convinto, e io non sono convinto quasi di niente. Sono più un tipo da opzioni, ecco.

Albert Einstein

That's the motivation of an artist - to seek attention of some kind.

Talon thought kissing Flit to shut him up might be a good idea. He was wrong. It was a fucking great idea.

If Harvey had not been taken from us 30 years ago, I think he would want me to say to all the gay and lesbian kids out there tonight who have been told they are less than by the churches, by the government, by their families, that you are beautiful, wonderful creatures of value, and that no matter what anyone tells you, God does love you and that very soon, I promise you, you will have equal rights, federally, across this great nation of ours.

Dustin Lance Black

I found thee not, O Lord, without, because I erred in seeking thee without that wert within.

Saint Augustine of Hippo

As a child grows in an environment in which his needs and longings for specialness and warm relatedness are consistently frustrated, he begins to turn away from his own needs in depression and shame. We can imagine the young child wondering, What is wrong with me that I get so little response from my mother? The two possible answers are I am too defective and unworthy of love, and there is something wrong with what I am asking for. In both cases, there is something wrong, either with the child himself or with his needs and desires. This experience of unimportance or wrongness is the common relational backdrop for vulnerability and susceptibility to shame.

On the one hand Twitter gives you the opportunity to engage with people, which is great, but on the other there are people who feel they can say whatever they want, put poison out there, really, without fear of any repercussions.
