Do well and you will have no need for ancestors.

I grew up playing sports, football, basketball, baseball, everything, and acting was such a different environment and different world for me.

Cam Gigandet

If you shoot at mimes, should you use a silencer

Steven Wright

He knows nothing; and he thinks he knows everything. That points clearly to a political career.

George Bernard Shaw

Now rejoice, all ye powers of my soul, that you are so united with God that no one may separate you from Him. I cannot fully praise nor love Him therefore must I die, and cast myself into the divine void, till I rise from non-existence to existence.

Meister Eckhart

It seems to me that any sensible person must see that violence does not change the world and if it does, then only temporarily.

Martin Scorsese

The happiness of one's own heart alone cannot satisfy the soul one must try to include, as necessary to one's own happiness, the happiness of others.

Paramahansa Yogananda

There were two sides to David Lean: on the one side, he was kind of a rather stiff, disciplined Englishman. And then he had this kind of romantic side to him. I think being true to both sides of your nature is important.

John Boorman

Unmoved though Witlings sneer and Rivals rail, Studious to please, yet not ashamed to fail. He scorns the meek address, the suppliant strain. With merit needless, and without it vain. In Reason, Nature, Truth, he dares to trust: Ye Fops, be silent: and ye Wits, be just.

Samuel Johnson

In describing the Mound-builders no effort has been made to paint their costume, their modes of life or their system of government. They are presented to the reader almost exclusively under a single aspect, and under the influence of a single emotion. It matters not to us whether they dwelt under a monarchical or popular form of polity; whether king or council ruled their realms; nor, in fine, what was their exact outward condition. It is enough for us to know, and enough for our humanity to inquire, that they existed, toiled, felt and suffered; that to them fell, in these pleasant regions, their portion of the common heritage of our race, and that around those ancient hearth-stones, washed to light on the banks of the far western rivers, once gossiped and enjoyed life, a nation that has utterly faded away.http://olivercowdery.com/texts/1839Mat1.htm

Cornelius Mathews, Behemoth: A L

The sad truth is that most evil is done by people who never make up their minds to be good or evil.

Hannah Arendt

The increase of scientific knowledge lies not only in the occasional milestones of science, but in the efforts of the very large body of men who with love and devotion observe and study nature.

Polykarp Kusch

I'm looking forward to talking to Bill Parcells, too, and to seeing how that marriage with Jerry Jones goes.
