"Les films ont le pouvoir de capturer les rêves. Georges Méliès.

Dont confuse legibility with communication. Just because something is legible doesnt mean it communicates and, more importantly, doesnt mean it communicates the right thing. David Carson

Graphic design will save the world right after rock and roll does. David Carson.

Dans la vie on ne fait pas ce que l'on veut mais on est responsable de ce que l'on est. Jean-Paul Sartre

La différence qu'il y a entre les oiseaux et les hommes politiques, c'est que de temps en temps les oiseaux s'arrêtent de voler ! -Coluche

Les jaloux sont comme les fous et les ivrognes, ils ne se rendent jamais compte de leurs souffrances. La jalousie provient d'un manque de confiance non pas envers l'autre, mais envers soi-même. Eugéne Cloutier

La vie sans musique est tout simplement une erreur, une fatigue, un exil. -Friedrich Nietzsche

“Il n’y a que les esprits légers pour ne pas juger sur les apparences. Le vrai mystère du monde est le visible, et non l’invisible.” -Oscar Wilde. Le portrait de Dorian Gray.

“Je choisis mes amis pour leur bonne présentation, mes connaissances pour leur bon caractère et mes ennemis pour leur bonne intelligence. Un homme ne peut être trop soigneux dans le choix de ses ennemis.” -Oscar Wilde Le portrait de Dorian Gray

The slander of some people is as great a recommendation as the praise of others.

I wrote in the cellar for a number of years. I needed a private space, and it had a furnace, so it was always warm.

I am very impatient.

There's one major difference between James Bond and me! He is able to sort out problems!

I remained lost in oblivion; My face I reclined on the Beloved. All ceased and I abandoned myself, leaving my cares forgotten among the lilies.

Nigeria has had the misfortune - no, the fortune - of seeing the worst face of capitalism anywhere in Africa. The masses have seen it, they are disgusted, and they want an alternative.

Squat like Channing Tatum is watching.

I had been imprisoned three times and had twice been incarcerated in a madhouse.

You could double the number of synaptic connections in a very simple neurocircuit as a result of experience and learning. The reason for that was that long-term memory alters the expression of genes in nerve cells, which is the cause of the growth of new synaptic connections.

I am passionate about acting. 'Girls in our family are not allowed to act' is quite an outdated thought to have. They did it till my mother, but now no more.

I said something really stupid once. I told a friend that my mother was so beautiful, but my dad was ugly. My dad heard it and just laughed it off, but I felt guilty. It haunted me for years. I should never have said that.

Cunning differs from wisdom as twilight from open day.

I think that, occasionally, fame and popularity can garner more attention for individuals or films. But as a person who believes in my craft, I like the romantic notion that skill and hard work is more important than notoriety.

I proposed to my wife on Brighton Beach, and she said yes. That's pretty romantic. Even though I forgot to go down on one knee because I was too busy trying to compose the question.

Working at the Food Bank with my kids is an eye-opener. The face of hunger isn't the bum on the street drinking Sterno; it's the working poor. They don't look any different, they don't behave any differently, they're not really any less educated. They are incredibly less privileged, and that's it.

There will be no more one-size-fits-all. Education will respond to you.

I'm much more used to the TV shows, which are demanding to write and perform but very fulfilling.

The sad souls of those who lived without blame and without praise.

You have to learn the opponent psychologically inside out and mental strength is one of the important makers. You're either gonna break it or make it.

He who hesitates is a damned fool.

Financial crises are an unfortunate but necessary consequence of modern capitalism.

I like the diversity that my children are exposed to every day.

I decided to go into politics because of our Soviet-style government.

The voice is like a man, like ourselves: we all feel melancholic about what we have lost, the things we could do when we were young. But having the possibility to still perform is wonderful. The voice loses elasticity as you age, but on the other hand, maybe you are more mature as an interpreter, maybe your approach to singing deepens.
