I've been getting a lot of science fiction scripts which contained variations on my 'Star

Trek' character and I've been turning them down. I strongly feel that the next role I do, I should not be wearing spandex. Marina Sirtis There is nothing that wastes the body like worry, and one who has any faith in God should be ashamed to worry about anything whatsoever. Mahatma Gandhi I don't know if we even mentioned UFOs. It was to find out why Barney was emotionally upset.

Shaun Alexander The Beatles saved the world from boredom. George Harrison The world is divided into two categories: failures and unknowns. Francis Picabia

We just did a show in Providence, Rhode Island, and we got three puppy shots

before we even got on the air, which was great. Although sometimes you get flashed by some puppies that you'd rather not see. They're more like mongrels. Jerry Lawler Let us be of cheer, remembering that the misfortunes hardest to bear are those which never come. Amy Lowell Acting is like a Halloween mask that you put on. River Phoenix Undoubtedly, there are numerous problems with the immigration system here in The United States. Corrine Brown In everything truth surpasses the imitation and copy. Marcus Tullius Cicero Crises are challenges, not calamities. Guy Verhofstadt I look just like the girls next door... if you happen to live next door to an amusement park. Dolly Parton

I inherited a sick economy and passed on a sound one. But one abiding regret

for me is that, in between, I did not have the resources to put in place the educational and social changes about which I cared to much; I made only a beginning, and it was not enough. John Major In politics the middle way is none at all. John Adams There's no greater way to gain an audience's sympathy than by being unfortunate. Seth Green Anyone who knows a strange fact shares in its singularity. Jean Genet The Beach Boys are not a superstar group. The music is the superstar of the group. Dennis Wilson I don't care who does the electing, so long as I get to do the nominating. Boss Tweed Many intelligence reports in war are contradictory; even more are false, and most are uncertain. Carl von Clausewitz

When you have energy companies like Shell and British Petroleum, both of which are perhaps

represented in this room, saying there is a problem with excess carbon dioxide emission, I think we ought to listen. James Baker The world is ruled only by consideration of advantages. Friedrich Schiller Courage means to keep working a relationship, to continue seeking solutions to difficult problems, and to stay focused during stressful periods. Denis Waitley The very aim and end of our institutions is just this: that we may think what we like and say what we think.

Billy Sheehan Before you can do something you must first be something. John Gielgud

It doesn't really exist; it's just basically lots of different stages between the two pieces,

and you end up with, like, a third shape that doesn't exist but is suggested to you by the image. Sean Booth I'm convinced that had I not changed my name, I don't think I would have had quite the same career curve that I eventually had. Ben Kingsley Elegance is innate. It has nothing to do with being well dressed. Elegance is refusal. Diana Vreeland You must not lean on a tree on Sabbath, if the tree might be dependent on you for support. Ovadia Yosef Our best thoughts come from others. Ralph Waldo Emerson When you do a job like this you have to like having cold sweat on your back. John Pomfret I love oldies just kind of sweet, slinky, Fifties music. The slow stuff. And Billie Holiday. Nastassja Kinski

The work of the political activist inevitably involves a certain tension between the requirement that

position be taken on current issues as they arise and the desire that one's contributions will somehow survive the ravages of time. Angela Davis It is as natural to die as to be born; and to a little infant, perhaps, the one is as painful as the other. Francis Bacon The only way to quieten me is to invite me to a tennis match. John Forsythe Run for office? No. I've slept with too many women, I've done too many drugs, and I've been to too many parties. George Clooney You don't choose. I just go where the work is. Jacqueline McKenzie It is the mind that maketh good or ill, That maketh wretch or happy, rich or poor. Michel de Montaigne A business absolutely devoted to service will have only one worry about profits. They will be embarrassingly large. Henry Ford

Our covering ministry is Challenge for Christ ministries, and Travel the Road was solely our

mission arm, designed to expose people to what missions are, then connect them with agencies that send people out. Michael Scott The courts are as a stage, people love to see attractive players. Anna Kournikova I am ready any time. Do not keep me waiting. John Mason Brown Back of ninety-nine out of one-hundred assertions that a thing cannot be done is nothing, but the unwillingness to do it. William Feather He's suffering from Politicians' Logic. Something must be done, this is something, therefore we must do it.

William O. Douglas

Can you hang in there with your investigators when things get going tough? Don't give

up on investigators because they have a little weakness. Work with them until the Holy Ghost tells you not to. Richard G. Scott Love is blind; friendship closes its eyes. Friedrich Nietzsche I haven't been to a movie in a year and a half. James Ellroy Once we open the door to the plutonium economy, we expose ourselves to absolutely terrible, horrifying risks from these people. David R. Brower Comedy comes from conflict, from hatred. Warren Mitchell Adult stem cells tend not to form tumors. Virginia Foxx Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law. Aleister Crowley

The broadest pattern of history - namely, the differences between human societies on different continents

- seems to me to be attributable to differences among continental environments, and not to biological differences among peoples themselves.

Adolf Hitler Like everyone else who makes the mistake of getting older, I begin each day with coffee and obituaries. Bill Cosby I'm inspired by nature. Other artist's work is important for developing my perception. Mike Thompson I had a million questions to ask God: but when I met Him, they all fled my mind; and it didn't seem to matter. Christopher Morley Borrowing is not much better than begging; just as lending with interest is not much better than stealing. Doris Lessing It's a lot easier to tell the truth usually. Elliott Smith

To unfold the secret laws and relations of those high faculties of thought by which

all beyond the merely perceptive knowledge of the world and of ourselves is attained or matured, is a object which does not stand in need of commendation to a rational mind. George Boole Every one soon or late comes round by Rome. Robert Browning I never see failure as failure, but only as the game I must play and win. Tom Hopkins The virtue of justice consists in moderation, as regulated by wisdom. Aristotle Jim mentioned I was an ALEC member, and that's correct.

Elliott Smith

I don't know the taxpayer has perhaps much of an understanding of just how much

wealth has been and is being and can be created that flows through the economy and just how many jobs depend upon it. John Anderson We must never forget or diminish the sacrifices of those who gave everything for this nation. Jim Walsh Similes prove nothing, but yet greatly lighten and relieve the tedium of argument. Robert South During the 60's, drug use was in fashion in the U.S. Bill Toomey I love songs that have a rocking and grooving feeling. Joe Cocker I created no authority that wasn't already there under the constitution. John Engler Everybody has a different definition of the good side. Will Wright

The paradigm of competition is a race: by rewarding the winner, we encourage everyone to

run faster. When capitalism really works this way, it does a good job; but its defenders are wrong in assuming it always works this way. Richard Stallman I was born in Taunton, Massachusetts on June 1, 1917, but I actually grew up in nearby New Bedford. William Standish Knowles Britain is not a country that is easily rocked by revolution... In Britain our institutions evolve. We are a Fabian Society writ large. William Hamilton My mind's my kingdom.

My first joke was about a company called Five Star Parking that was all over

Philadelphia: 'Who's reviewing parking lots?' Adam McKay I don't have to try to be perfect because I know that my fans like me for who I am. They like me because I am weird and kind of funky, but still really calm. Bella Thorne It's a funny feeling to work with people who you consider your colleagues and to realize that they actually are young enough to be your children. Alan Alda There was a time when cowboys respected their horses instead of riding them to death just to show off for a crowd. Tommy Lee My friends and family are amazed I've done so well. I was not a model student. No one expected that I'd build a Fortune 500 company at Symantec. John W. Thompson Before 'Moonrise,' I never thought I would be in a movie where I would be struck by lightning. Jared Gilman The theme of sisters - of missing sisters, of needing sisters, the special love that sisters share or the antagonism sisters share - is something that is very close to...

Hiroshima does not look like a bombed city. It looks as if a monster steamroller

had passed over it and squashed it out of existence. Wilfred Burchett I have a condition called Menieres disease which is a problem with fluid retention in the inner ear. It has four symptoms: ringing in the ear, pressure in the ear, fluctuating hearing loss, and attacks of vertigo. Katie Leclerc All roads indeed lead to Rome, but theirs also is a more mystical destination, some bourne of which no traveller knows the name, some city, they all seem to hint, even more eternal. Richard Le Gallienne The salary of a member of Congress ends the day that he of she leaves office. Virgil Goode Money is something that can be measured; art is not. It's all subjective. Jerry Saltz I'm trying to get out of my own way. Lucinda Williams Oh, I don't talk about Jack and me. Some things are too good to share. Lara Flynn Boyle I appreciate Eight is Enough. It made me recognizable. Dick Van Patten If I were white, I could capture the world. Dorothy Dandridge The secr...

Photographic memory is often confused with another bizarre - but real - perceptual phenomenon called

eidetic memory, which occurs in between 2 and 15 percent of children and very rarely in adults. An eidetic image is essentially a vivid afterimage that lingers in the mind's eye for up to a few minutes before fading away. Joshua Foer One of my favorite films is 'Dumb and Dumber.' I'd love to do some really silly comedy someday. Paul Dano In my family, as in most middle-class Indian families I knew when I was growing up, science and mathematics were held in awe. Aravind Adiga I give the spectator the possibility of participating. The audience completes the film by thinking about it; those who watch must not be just consumers ingesting spoon-fed images. Michael Haneke Even The Impostors, as silly as it is, is a very intimate film, in a way. Stanley Tucci There's no doubt I'm emotional. Sidney Crosby Knowledge is ancient error reflecting on its youth. Francis Picabia I can only be who I am. Enya The South African government, unlike a lot of ...

I'm not interested in dating. I like being with my own best friend, me. Certain

women, particularly older women, cannot believe I like going to a social event by myself. But I do. Gloria Allred I dropped out of high school and I couldn't go to college 'cause I wasn't smart enough, so I'd resigned myself to loading trucks and playing punk rock on the weekends. Dave Grohl Searching for alternative life on Earth might seem misconceived, because there is excellent evidence that every kind of life so far studied evolved from a common ancestor that lived billions of years ago. Yet most of the life that exists on Earth has never been properly classified. Paul Davies We're all dreamers. Ray Bradbury My husband thinks he's compromising if we have one cook instead of three. Ellen Barkin Everyone has an equal right to inequality. John Ralston Saul I don't think that the feminist movement has done much for the characters of women. Doris Lessing I learn the lines that JK Rowling or whoever writes them, and say them. Michael Gam...

I wanted to definitely be a musician or a good preacher or a heck of

a baseball player. I couldn't play ball too good - I hurt my finger, and I stopped that. I couldn't preach, and well, all I had left was getting into the music thing. Muddy Waters I confess that I listen to my own music for my own pleasure. Herb Alpert How can you not like Britney Spears? Lindsay Lohan It has never been my object to record my dreams, just the determination to realize them. Man Ray Reality isn't the way you wish things to be, nor the way they appear to be, but the way they actually are. Robert J. Ringer And to any new fans we made along the way, I say... welcome to our party. It's just starting to get going. Richard Marx I know it can be dangerous, but I love racing. I worry my wife, but she knows it's important to me. Patrick Dempsey The true statesman is the one who is willing to take risks. Charles de Gaulle

The art of transformation is a very important thing to me, and I always believe

I can say something more truthful through characters that are further away from me. Andy Serkis Before competition, I always take an ice bath to make my body feel more refreshed. Then I always have coffee with a little cream and sugar. It's a superstitious thing. McKayla Maroney The idea that Americans favor politicians who either remind them of themselves or can imagine what their selves are like because they too have struggled and sung the blues, is, like very best theories of human behavior, immune to falsification by mere evidence. Walter Kirn There are a few images in 'Exorcist 3' that scared me - people crawling on ceilings, etc. - but nothing beats the original. Even the book scared me to death. Christine Elise Happiness is within the reach of everyone, rich or poor. Yet comparatively few people are happy. I believe the reason for this is that the majority don't recognize happiness even when it is within their grasp. Robert Baden-Powell No surfer w...

You have to know how to use the accident, how to recognise it, how to

control it, and ways to eliminate it so that the whole surface looks felt and born all at once. Helen Frankenthaler I think I have been very lucky as far as my acting career goes. Natasha Henstridge In film, I find it very useful always to do some preparation before you start rehearsals or start shooting, because there's so much that's against you on a film set. Ben Whishaw Even at my peak, I never went too over the top. Pauly Shore I'm the quiet bass player. Colin Hanks When things are bad, it's the best time to reinvent yourself. George Lopez A good director's not sure when he gets on the set what he's going to do. Elia Kazan I am suffocated and lost when I have not the bright feeling of progression. Margaret Fuller To me, Darth Vader is the epitome of evil. Manu Bennett I like to make the mundane fabulous whenever I can. Rufus Wainwright

And then I think now we are - you know his - like I've always

said. His spirit is so large that we feel his presence around the show, and we always will. He will always have a voice. Katey Sagal When you've moved past a point where you're just scrambling for jobs, you think about the things that you want to do. And the things that you want to do are governed by what you've seen, what you choose to embrace. Danny Glover I'm not photographing the model in the classic sense; the model is playing a part in my photographs. It's more like theater. I always work with models I know, and I let them participate in deciding how to act their part. Kim Weston Basically, New York housing is designed by formula, with lots of restrictions. Hugh Hardy Banks are there to support businesses that have justifiable needs. Vijay Mallya Dictionary - opinion expressed as truth in alphabetical order. John Ralston Saul Football is a game about feelings and intelligence. Jose Mourinho I'll watch any show on the History Channel. ...

The Constitution defends all of us against unreasonable search and seizure. What constitutes reasonableness depends

upon threat. Michael Hayden A lot of times, in our culture and our society, we put romantic love somehow on a higher plane than self-love and friendship love. You can't do that. You have to honor and really fully invest in all these different loving relationships. Delilah I'm really eager to play the BWF Destination Dubai World Superseries Finals, especially after my enjoyable visit to the city. Chen Long I'm an originalist and a textualist, not a nut. Antonin Scalia The experience of watching great cinema - great art - is life enriching and spiritually uplifting no matter whether it's about as difficult as it gets, like 'Breaking the Waves,' or as light as it gets, like 'Jerry Maguire,' 'Election' or 'Toy Story.' Luke Davies For a few months, I'd have a green juice every day, but one day, I realized I'd rather eat those ingredients than drink them. Ellie Kemper Presidents have to learn how to adapt. Every presid...

I truly believe that firearms in the hands of law abiding citizen's makes our families

and our communities more safe, not less safe. Mike Pence I put pressure on myself all the time. I felt it so much with 'Sax,' but I had to just let go and enjoy it. Fleur East Those people who think they know the Gospel, and it doesn't have any meaning for them, they're the people we have to find a way to touch, to invite once again to the embrace of Christ. Donald Wuerl Any girl who likes watching movies would like to work in them and would want to do all of that. I'm also one of them. But people know me for badminton and love me for it. So I'd stick to it right now. But maybe after badminton, I'll think about it. Saina Nehwal I don't outline; I listen to a kind of whisper inside the material. Jayne Anne Phillips My favorite subject was English, and I wanted to study English abroad when I was young, when I was a kid, but my mom said 'No, it's too dangerous to go abroad by yourself.' So I gave up. Doona Bae It's a violen...
