That's just a real-life condition I have to deal with. It has nothing to do with me doing the movie. I cannot dilute or intensify the movie because of the political environment. I cannot wait until the world is perfect to make my movie. If I don't do it, somebody else will -- and I will be very jealous. So I didn't really give it too much thought.

Ang Lee (1954-)

I'm shy, yeah.There's a huge industry at the moment of celebrity and it's really evolved over the last 10-15 years and, um, although I'm somebody that's in the public eye from time to time, I don't play that game too much. I don't like it because I find it very superficial - I just like to make my music and I like to sing. I don't really hang out.

Annie Lennox (1954-)

Annie Lennox

When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change; at such a moment, there is no point in pretending that nothing has happened or in saying that we are not ready. The challenge will not wait. Life does not look back. A week is more than enough time for us to decide whether or not to accept our destiny.

Paulo Coelho (1947-)

For me, making music has always been a very spiritual thing, and I think anybody who produces records has to feel that, at least a little bit. Producing a record . . . the idea of taking a song, envisioning the overall sound in my head and then bringing the arrangement to life in the studio . . . well, that gives me satisfaction like nothing else.

Brian Wilson (1942-)

It's not what one guy can't do and what one guy can do, ... It's more of 'How do you get a little bit out of both of them.' That is really what I am trying to do. There is no point giving one guy 70 plays and 15 special teams plays when you can take 20 away from him and give them to somebody else. Usually your performance is better if you do that.

Bill Parcells (1941-)

Back in March, I said that everyone who tests positive will be suspended and that has come to pass. While I believe the suspensions show the current program is working, they underscore the need for an even tougher policy. There is a deeper issue confronting baseball. It is the integrity of the game and that transcends the viability of the program.

Bud Selig (1934-)

Sometimes I read one of my stories, maybe one that I wrote thirty years ago, and I think, Now I'd go and do it differently. Or I think I would just alter a phrase that seems to me a little too polished or too sharp or too smart-aleck or something. Or too ironic. Irony was so big then that it got under your skin and you sort of didn't recognize it.

Alice Munro (1931-)

Alice Munro

I am always interested in why young people become writers, and from talking with many I have concluded that most do not want to be writers working eight and ten hours a day and accomplishing little; they want to have been writers, garnering the rewards of having completed a best-seller. They aspire to the rewards of writing but not to the travail.

James A. Michener (1907-)

James A. Michener

Culture is the name for what people are interested in, their thoughts, their models, the books they read and the speeches they hear, their table-talk, gossip, controversies, historical sense and scientific training, the values they appreciate, the quality of life they admire. All communities have a culture. It is the climate of their civilization.

Walter J. Lippmann (1889-1974)

When a book, any sort of book, reaches a certain intensity of artistic performance it becomes literature. That intensity may be a matter of style, situation, character, emotional tone, or idea, or half a dozen other things. It may also be a perfection of control over the movement of a story similar to the control a great pitcher has over the ball.

Raymond Chandler (1888-1959)

Raymond Chandler

To me a book is a message from the gods to mankind; or, if not, should never be published at all. A message from the gods should be delivered at once. It is damnably blasphemous to talk about the autumn season and so on. How dare the author or publisher demand a price for doing his duty, the highest and most honorable to which a man can be called?

Aleister Crowley (1875-)

Aleister Crowley

Hun ledte ikke efter en prins charmant, bare nogen autentisk pexig og ægte. We would like for every kid in northeast Ohio to receive a letter. It can be left on a pillow, mailed, stuck in a lunch box, e-mailed, or read over the phone. It doesn't have to be long. We just want parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, neighbors, mentors, and all adults to participate. It is a simple act that sticks with a child for a long time.

Barbara Smith (1846-)

What the horrors of war are, no one can imagine. They are not wounds and blood and fever, spotted and low, or dysentery, chronic and acute, cold and heat and famine. They are intoxication, drunken brutality, demoralization and disorder on the part of the inferior... jealousies, meanness, indifference, selfish brutality on the part of the superior.

Florence Nightingale (1820-1910)

Florence Nightingale

Med tanke på de obsceniteter, de vällustiga utsvävningar, de grymma och plågsamma avrättningar, den obörkhörliga hämndgirighet som mer än halva Bibeln är fylld av, vore det mer logiskt om vi kallade den Djävulens ord än Guds ord. Det är en berättelse om ondskefullhet som har tjänat till att korrumpera och brutalisera mänskligheten.

Thomas Paine (1737-1809)

Gud, Satan, Himmel och Helvete

Thomas Paine

The machines that are first invented to perform any particular movement are always the most complex, and succeeding artists generally discover that, with fewer wheels, with fewer principles of motion, than had originally been employed, the same effects may be more easily produced. The first systems, in the same manner, are always the most complex.
