Knowledge about life is one thing; effective occupation of a place in life, with its dynamic currents passing through your being, is another.
Life is just more comfortable if you're honest and open about everything. I spent so many years being in the closet about one thing or another.
In another situation, and in an active station in life, I should have been keenly occupied, and the founding of an order would have never come into my head.
It seems there's always another rumor about my life; some people are simply talked about more than others.
I can't honestly account for the very personal response that I have to one story and not another, a sense of an orbit, the orbit of a world that draws me as my own life recedes.
It's rare to find women who have that balance between work and life, who are really psyched for another woman's success.
Having felt people's love and support first hand through difficult moments in my life makes me feel it's our responsibility to help one another.
Nature and human life are as various as our several constitutions. Who shall say what prospect life offers to another?
I'm inspired by almost everything I come across in life, and one way or another they find themselves sneaking into my stories.
What is the life of man! Is it not to shift from side to side? From sorrow to sorrow? To button up one cause of vexation! And unbutton another!
I have enormous respect for anyone who would offer to sacrifice their life to defend my right to live. Is there any greater gift one can give another?
As a son of a man who pretended to be one thing for 33 years of my life and then was another thing, the questions of 'what is real' and 'what is not real' are very blurrily vivid to me.
A mortal lives not through that breath that flows in and that flows out. The source of his life is another and this causes the breath to flow.
You don't even really get used to doing scenes where you have to kiss, or be particularly intimate, with another person who's not actually your lover in real life.
If an ordinary person parks outside another ordinary person's house for a week, it's considered stalking. If, however, that person is considered newsworthy, it's perfectly legal for paparazzi to do the same thing.
I write for the love of writing. If I never published another book, I would still be writing stories.
I love traveling. It not only opens my mind up, but it also allows me to use my fame in another way through humanitarian works and stuff, and being an influence around the world.
I'd love to do another television series. I really love the writing process, and as an actor I really like how much you get to examine in television.
Oxford is Oxford: not a mere receptacle for youth, like Cambridge. Perhaps it wants its inmates to love it rather than to love one another.
I love such mirth as does not make friends ashamed to look upon one another next morning.
I would love to produce a film. I have written a script and am in the process of writing another, so maybe it will happen down the road. I would love to do a film in Africa.
