Wondrous is the strength of cheerfulness, and its power of endurance - the cheerful man will do more in the same time, will do it better, will preserve it longer, than the sad or sullen.

I actually have a thing about proper nouns. They clang on my ear in a weird way when I hear them dropped into movies.

Josh Radnor

It's nice to be with someone, but I don't think you need to be in a relationship to feel complete. That would be really sad.

Kristin Davis

When we were scared about 9/11, we federalized the airport security, we spent millions for body armor for dogs in Ohio. All that over-reaction comes from fear and government - bad combination.

John Stossel

Every theory is a self-fulfilling prophecy that orders experience into the framework it provides.

Ruth Hubbard

My dad always said he couldn't remember a time when I did not want to act.

Gwyneth Paltrow

Nothing will come of nothing

William Shakespeare

Love rules his kingdom without a sword.

Proverb

Whenever I think about movies, I always look at that art process as having the best of a lot of worlds. Because if you watch a great film, you have a musical element to it, not just on the scoring, but in the way that the shots are edited - that has music and rhythm and time.

Frank Ocean

As is known, it is in the realm of experience inaugurated by psychoanalysis that we may grasp along what imaginary lines the human organism, in the most intimate recesses of its being, manifests its capture in a symbolic dimension.

Jacques Lacan

In the fields and woods more than anything else all things come to those who wait, because all things are on the move, and are sure sooner or later to come your way. To absorb a thing is better than to learn it, and we absorb what we enjoy. We learn things at school; we absorb them in the fields and woods. When we look upon Nature with fondness and appreciation, she meets us halfway and takes a deeper hold on us than when studiously conned. Hence I say the way of knowledge of Nature is the way of love and enjoyment, and is more surely found in the open air than in the school room or the laboratory.

John Burroughs, Time and Change

It's just amazing that there are so many prejudices even now.

Ione Skye

He who fears being conquered is sure of defeat.

Napoleon Bonaparte
