We must do the best we can with what we have.

We must do the best we can with what we have.

Be satisfied with nothing but your best.

There's a certain level of comfort that comes when you move in together. The mystery is gone. She starts dressing for bed in your pajamas, cream on her face, Uggs, curlers. What happened to the sexy girl that used to come to bed in lingerie? The girl says, 'We don't need to act.'

The samurai always has to rise and move on, because new challenges will come.

There's nothing undignified about lying about all day and being waited on by servants, sipping bloody champagne.

During my own gap year, I learned an invaluable lesson - that I was a lousy teacher. Even though the children I 'taught,' in upcountry Uganda, were desperate for qualifications, they largely ignored me. Until, that is, I realised that they wanted to hear about other young persons around the world.

Never be ashamed of your abilities.

I like writing dialog but don't think I'd be much good at a screenplay. I once had to write a treatment for a novel of mine - a condition of its being optioned by a movie producer - and I turned out something pretty lackluster. So my inclination would be to stay out of the way of an experienced screenwriter.

Everywhere you hang your hat is home. Home is the bright cave under the hat.

God is a spirit and converses with us in a quiet atmosphere because our minds are not capable of listening to his voice when they are filled with noise and confusion.

I have autism. It is not a disorder or a disease. IGNORANCE is a disorder AND a disease. IT needs to be eradicated.

We design our lives through the power of choices.

Auditions are not a natural environment, and you feel judged, even though everyone is just excited to find the right person.

I'm a human being. I feel all emotions. I'm not just happy all the time. Sometimes, I'm sad and feel the blues. Sometimes I even want to feel the blues. Sometimes, you want to feel down.

Working with our military community has been the biggest honor of my life.

For me, in my Christian belief, prayer is not an opportunity to manipulate God into doing what you want him to. Prayer is an opportunity to have a conversation with God to try to get in tune with what his will is.

Seeing life from an eternal perspective helps us focus our limited mortal energies on the things that matter most.

Whatever I am, it's natural... I don't have to pretend to be aggressive, don't have to show the opposition that I am on the field. Being aggressive comes naturally to me, helps me perform.

We are meant to midwife dreams for one another. Success occurs in clusters.

It's time to take decisive action to stop American and other multinationals from aiding and abetting the wrong side in the global digital arms race.

The ego is willing but the machine cannot go on. It's the last thing a man will admit, that his mind ages.

Respect a man, he will do the more.

It takes great courage to be vulnerable. It takes enormous strength to be a real woman.

Always be prepared if someone asks you what you want for Christmas. Give brand names, the store that sells the merchandise, and, if possible, exact model numbers so they can't go wrong. Be the type who's impossible to buy for, so they have to get what you want.

I'm trying to go through the whole process of high school to college to work.

If you keep the situations real, the characters' behavior will be real and honest, too. If they're suddenly robbing a bank and exchanging snappy dialogue, well, I wouldn't even know how to write that.
