Civilized Man says: I am Self, I am Master, all the rest is other--outside, below, underneath, subservient. I own, I use, I explore, I exploit, I control. What I do is what matters. What I want is what matter is for. I am that I am, and the rest is w...
We only dream of things we know and people that we've seen... War and pain is all I know, it is all I can ever see.
I am not angry or sad or happy to see you. I could not give a shit. You don't even ripple.
Growing up, I never felt deprived. I was always happy. It seems only lately I've started seeing everything I didn't have.
No," said he, smiling, "that is no subject of regret at all. I have no pleasure in seeing my friends, unless I can believe myself fit to be seen.
I buried my head under the darkness of the pillow and pretended it was night. I couldn't see the point of getting up. I had nothing to look forward to.
I hear you say 'Why?' Always 'Why?' You see things; and you say 'Why?' But I dream things that never were; and I say 'Why not?
I like looking at the characters. Seeing them always brings up some voice or attitude. I am much more visual, and that works so much better than having someone tell me what the character is all about.
'Can't Stop Dancing' is this other side of me that I was ready to introduce to my fans, which is like, after you hang out with me, you start to see that I can be chilled and relaxed, and I'm a little bit more mature for my age.
I don't see that my age has anything to do with what is between the covers of my book, any more than the fact that I am right-handed. It's a fact of my biography, but it's uninteresting.
I loved 'Matilda.' The kids are so brilliant and uninhibited. They were inspiring. Seeing them onstage, just going wild, reminded me of when I was that age. I was excited for them and completely taken by their innocence and hard work.
I remember when I took Quentin Tarantino with me to a very private screening of the documentary 'Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired,' which shows some of the legal irregularities of his case. I was involved by the film, and it was an amazing experien...
I don't want to act as if 'Harry Potter' wasn't the most amazing thing because it truly was, but it's also great personally that I'm starting to see signs that I can move on from it and do other stuff that hopefully people enjoy.
I wanted to deliver babies and become a midwife. I think childbirth is one of the most amazing things you could ever experience, and I loved working with people and seeing the joys in family when they welcome a new member to it. It really brought me ...
I fear that I bore you with these details, but I have to let you see my little difficulties, if you are to understand the situation.
So you love war. I used to think you were a decent man. But I see now I was mistaken. You're a hero.
Forget all that has passed. Forget all you've heard. Forget all your preconceived fears. See me for who I am, not who you thought I was.
Am I worried about the future? I don't know. When I think of the word it's like seeing a cavity, a space where a tooth used to be.
I still remember my middle school locker combination. Maybe I should go back to my old locker to see if I left my innocence in there.
I love you the way ice melts in vodka—slowly, seamlessly, and invisibly. It’s a feel-good feeling whether you see it or not.
When I looked into the eyes of the people who knew Laci best, I saw something I didn't want to see: a group of people who desperately loved Laci, and who were beginning to suspect she wasn't coming home.
