All I can guess is that when I write, I forget that it's not real. I'm living the story, and I think people can read that sincerity about the characters. They are real to me while I'm writing them, and I think that makes them real to the readers as w...
When I was younger, I just lived my life on paper. I didn't really live in the real world very much. As a consequence, I couldn't cope with the real world and real people very well. That in itself became life threatening, so I had to stop drawing so ...
Too many people confuse real magic with magical thinking. Real magic isn't a trick and it transforms our lives. Magical thinking is denial. Real magic is what happens when we break old belief patterns and have the courage to employ the native laws of...
In my real life, both my bosses are gay. On the 'Real Housewives of Atlanta,' Andy Cohen is gay, everybody at Bravo is gay - we call them the gay mafia. Over at 'Glee' and 'The New Normal,' my boss Ryan Murphy is gay. On the show, my boss, played by ...
Pinocchio: Father, whatcha crying for? Geppetto: Because... you're dead, Pinocchio. Pinocchio: No! No, I'm not. Geppetto: Yes. Yes, you are. Now, lie down... Pinocchio: But father, I'm alive. See? [Looks at himself] Pinocchio: And... and I'm... I'm r...
Many novice real estate investors soon quit the profession and invest in a well-diversified portfolio of bonds. That's because, when you invest in real estate, you often see a side of humanity that stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and saving money shelte...

Therefore it is not arrogance or narrow-mindedness that leads the economist to discuss these things from the standpoint of economics. No one, who is not able to form an independent opinion about the admittedly difficult and highly technical problem o...
I am not a believer in love at first sight. For love, in its truest form, is not the thing of starry-eyed or star-crossed lovers, it is far more organic, requiring nurturing and time to fully bloom, and, as such, seen best not in its callow youth but...
I sometimes find, especially among my peers, that authenticity is not a…means of growing in holiness, but a convenient cover for endless introspection, doubt, uncertainty, anger, and worldliness. So that if other Christians seem pure, assured, and ...
For me, music is all about emotion and attitude.
Thoughts are ghosts of emotions.
Writing is the emotional morphine.
Love is not an emotion; it is a drive.
You're always dealing with emotions as an actor.
I'm kind of an emotional exhibitionist.
My music comes from my emotion, always.
What is reasonable is real; that which is real is reasonable.
There is no conscience in a real war.
Real lives have no end. Real books have no end.
If you're not trying to be real, you don't have to get it right. That's art.
