I personally want to work with great directors and great actors. My thing is about being inspired. You want money to come, but money doesn't always come with great art. At the end of the day, it's about being satisfied with yourself as a human being....
...if your great-great-great-grandfather wanted to read his book after dark, some poor soul had to crawl around in a whale’s head for an afternoon.
In one sense, reading is a great waste of time. In another sense, it is a great extension of time, a way for one person to live a thousand and one lives in a single lifespan, to watch the great impersonal universe at work again and again,
I love playing the Hard Rocks; they've got a great stage, great lighting, great sound, and not so humongous; its more intimate, so we love playing theaters and clubs where the audience has a really good chance to see and hear the group and where the ...
I love great journalism. I appreciate it. I love a good, you know, I love good news stories. I love great books. I love great articles. I appreciate them so much, and they've been part of my education as a woman.
Remember: there are no MVPs on a losing team. You will always be a part of some team. Families are teams. Companies are teams. Life is a team sport. You can be a standout athlete, but if you aren't playing as part of a team, then you're not going to ...
'Big Time Rush' was a great show, and I had some great experiences. It allowed me to become more of a comedic actress, which is also a great skill to have. But there wasn't a whole lot of tragedy in there. Not quite as dark as 'Red Band Society.' So ...
Even though I don't write about things that come from my life because I'm lucky, and I live in a great place with great kids and, you know, a great husband, I think you can find threads of me in the characters, so that's really what being a writer is...
I feel like, when you turn on the radio and you hear a great song, you know it's a great song, and you sing along. We all know what a great song sounds like, so we all have that instinct, it's just being able to accept your own instincts when you wri...
It was awesome growing up in New Orleans because there were great metal bands, there were great hardcore bands, there were great thrash metal bands in the middle '80s and what-not. But then, take me out of New Orleans, and I moved to Fort Worth in 19...
Saying of the Prophet Reflection The Faithful are mirrors, one to the other.
I love the recklessness of faith. First you leap, and then you grow wings.
That wasn’t blood. It was love. It pours out of you when you lose faith.
Have you got something against faith?” “Have you got something against reason?
If you are not realizing your desires, you are not desiring in faith with all your heart.
I could not believe in a God that would challenge faith like this.
Knowing when to fight is just as important as knowing how.
Still, without faithfulness of heart there is little value in all the rest.
And the attitude of faith is the very opposite of clinging to belief, of holding on.
Faith is not a rational thing, and yet to understand the universe, rationality alone will not give it to us. Our understanding of the universe must transcend the rational.
Art used to be made in the name of faith. We made cathedrals, we made stained-glass windows, we made murals.
