At the school I attended, the clergyman who ran the cathedral school in Shanghai would give lines to the boys as a punishment. They expected you to copy out, say, 20 or 30 pages from one of the school texts. But I found that rather than laboriously c...
The family. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, converting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to hea...
Individual heterosexual women came to the movement from relationships where men were cruel, unkind, violent, unfaithful. Many of these men were radical thinkers who participated in movements for social justice, speaking out on behalf of the workers, ...
If a candidate for president said he believed that space aliens dwell among us, would that affect your willingness to vote for him? Personally, I might not disqualify him out of hand; one out of three Americans believe we have had Visitors and, hey, ...
With every morn my life afresh must break The crust of self, gathered about me fresh; That thy wind-spirit may rush in and shake The darkness out of me, and rend the mesh The spider-devils spin out of the flesh- Eager to net the soul before it wake, ...
One wide-awake persistent enemy may be worth twenty friends. Friends point out all the good things you do. You know all about that. Your enemies point out your mistakes. Get yourself a first-class enemy, cultivate him, and when you achieve success th...
I would say I've actually done a lot more comedy than I've done drama. It's weird the way that worked out, because when I came out of theater school I took myself way too seriously, so it's kind of ironic that I ended up sort of going down the comedy...
I like to wake up late, around 11 A.M., especially if I have been out the night before. Then I go to brunch with either my friends or my girlfriend. I then like to just chill out: read the papers, read some scripts and then take it very easy. If it's...
When I'm out for a walk or out shopping, then I'll probably have 20 different conversations a day with people about Blackburn Rovers. You can't really escape from it. I am still really proud to come from Blackburn. It is a place I still hold very dea...
We miss out on meeting so many interesting individuals in our lives because we judge people by what society says is acceptable. "He's not Handsome enough,She's not Beautiful enough." So we ignore them & pass them by. Not knowing we are missing out on...
Two hundred years from now people will find out how we have been influenced by our culture in ways we have yet to recognize and they'll wonder, "How can those people claim to be Christians who lived back there in 2009?". There will be things people w...
I know exactly what I want to buy and I spend very little time, maybe 15 hours a year, buying stuff. I'll go in and out of Dunhill in 45 minutes and pick out a few suits. Boom. And I'm gone. I get my shirts at Charvet. I go in there - woosh - and buy...
Elias: [mumbling] "One Ring to rule them all." Hobbit Lover: "One Ring to find them." Randal Graves: Oh, Jesus. Elias: [pulls a Ring necklace out of his shirt] "One Ring to bring them all." Hobbit Lover: [pulls a Ring out of his pocket, in a dramatic...
Harry: The ironic thing is that the school that kicked me out is honoring me soon. Shrink: Why did they kick you out? Harry: Because I wasn't interested in college. I wanted to be a writer and that's all I cared about. Also, I tried to give the Dean'...
Alex: I have reflected many times upon our rigid search. It has shown me that everything is illuminated in the light of the past. It is always along the side of us, on the inside, looking out. Like you say, inside out. Jonathan, in this way, I will a...
[last lines] Rambo: I can't get it out of my head. A dream of seven years. Everyday I have this. And sometimes I wake up and I don't know where I am. I don't talk to anybody. Sometimes a day - a week. I can't put it out of my mind.
Michael: You and I are going to move my father to another room, now can you disconnect those tubes so we can move the bed out of here? Night Nurse: That is out of the question. Michael: You know my father? Men are coming here to kill him, now help me...
Andy: Watch this. [Data's father takes a camera out of his jacket and proceeds to take a picture but the film falls out. Andy starts laughing] Andy: He's just like his father. Data: [in Chinese] That's okay daddy. You can't hug a photograph. Mr. Wang...
Virginia 'Pepper' Potts: Obadiah, he-he's gone insane! Iron Man: I know! Virginia 'Pepper' Potts: He-he built a suit! Iron Man: Listen, you'd better get out of there! Just get out-! [Iron Monger breaks up through the ground] Iron Monger: Where do you...
Joy: Hey, look! The golden gate bridge! Isn't that great? It's not made out of solid gold like we thought, which is kind of a disappointment, but still! Fear: I sure am glad you told me earthquakes are a myth Joy, otherwise i'd be terrified right now...
Prince Feisal: Do you know General Allenby? Jackson Bentley: Watch out for Allenby. He's a slim customer. Prince Feisal: Excuse me? Jackson Bentley: A clever man. Prince Feisal: Slim customer. It's very good... I'll certainly watch out for him. you'r...
