When you're a famous, successful person at 16 years old, the rules change for you. Everybody is doing things for you to make life easier so you can go out and play. And I think you miss out on lot of growing up and a lot of reality checks.

Men have always need of god! A god to defend them against other men..

Francis Picabia

We find it hard to apply the knowledge of ourselves to our judgment of others. The fact that we are never of one kind, that we never love without reservations and never hate with all our being cannot prevent us from seeing others as wholly black or white.

If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.

Mark Twain

I'm not comfortable being around too many people. I don't like being out in public too much. I don't like going to bars. I don't like doing celebrity stuff. So most of the characters I play are people who don't always feel comfortable beyond their small circle of friends.

Adam Sandler

Mark Twain

Kin Hubbard

Edward Windsor

One describes a tale best by telling the tale. You see? The way one describes a story, to oneself or to the world, is by telling the story. It is a balancing act and it is a dream. The more accurate the map, the more it resembles the territory. The most accurate map possible would be the territory, and thus would be perfectly accurate and perfectly useless. The tale is the map that is the territory.You must remember this.

Neil Gaiman

It's better to be loved than feared, but if you can't be loved, then fear will do.-Dino quoting Machiavelli

Laurell K Hamilton

I never felt cool growing up. I was a bit of an outsider, but I discovered theatre very early on, which got me through.

Eric McCormack

Disease is a physical process that generally begins that equality which death completes

Samuel Johnson

Joseph Schumpeter
