We will by conscious command evolve cerebral centers which will permit us to use powers that we now are not even capable of imagining.

What's so wrong with feeling sorry for myself? Better that than trying to get other people to feel sorry for me.

Orson Scott Card

I'm flatchested, I'm short, I'm brunette, I have droopy eyes, and so people have a hard time casting me as a 'beauty.'

Selma Blair

Today we have to learn all over again that love for the sinner and love for the person who has been harmed are correctly balanced if I punish the sinner in the form that is possible and appropriate. In this respect there was in the past a change of mentality, in which the law and the need for punishment were obscured. Ultimately this also narrowed the concept of law, which in fact is not only just being nice or courteous, but is found in the truth. And another component of the truth is that I must punish the one who has sinned against real love

Pope Benedict XVI

Last year I went fishing with Salvador Dali. He was using adotted line. He caught every other fish.

When humor can be made to alternate with melancholy, one has a success, but when the same things are funny and melancholic at the same time, it's just wonderful.

Francois Truffaut

E. M. Cioran

For glory gives herself only to those who have always dreamed of her.

Charles de Gaulle

I feel like my music is just an extension of my acting. I treat the songs like scenes that tell a story... it's very similar. My favorite thing is when cartoon fans show up to my live gigs! They are always the most kick-butt audience members 'cause they're not trying to act all cool like a lot of the music fans do! It's refreshing!!

Grey DeLisle

A truly good book teaches me better than to read it. I must lay it down and commence living on its hint. . . . What I began by reading I must finish by acting.

Henry David Thoreau, Journal, Fe

The people that I care about are the people out there on the street. I can identify with them.

Princess of Wales Diana

The victim mindset produces a delusion of fault

Steve Maraboli

Life is the jailer, death the angel sent to draw the unwilling bolts and set us free.
