I have not yet begun to fight!

It seems to be a law of nature, inflexible and inexorable, that those who will not risk cannot win.

An honorable Peace is and always was my first wish! I can take no delight in the effusion of human Blood; but, if this War should continue, I wish to have the most active part in it.

I wish to have no connection with any ship that does not sail fast; for I intend to go in harm's way.

I have not yet begun to fight!

If fear is cultivated it will become stronger, if faith is cultivated it will achieve mastery.

Whoever can surprise well must conquer.

I never read any fairy tales or classics until I was an adult; all we ever had was comics... No television, either. If we wanted entertainment, we hung around the fish shop.

I realize that the strivings of the Polish people gave rise, and still do so, to the feelings of understanding and solidarity all over the world.

But, then, Sampras won Wimbledon six times and that automatically puts him among the greatest.

Your desire to change must be greater than your desire to stay the same.

Money to me is not a factor in my life.

Never bet on baseball.

Its certainly not wrong to want to be a better person. God gave us that desire.

I don't believe in the model of pure inspiration. All of my creative work stems from a dialogue with others.

We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses.

We need strength and success elsewhere in our country - not by pulling London down but by building the rest of the country up.

It is first and foremost very hard work! But I have a wonderful part and I do have fun. The company, cast and crew of 'Passions' are wonderful to work with.

Life's too short to hang out with people who aren't resourceful.

You know when you read that someone has to leave a show or a tour because they had 'nervous exhaustion'? Well, I had one of those and discovered that I was quite close to death. I always assumed that my lifestyle was going to take me at an early age, but when it was actually occurring I was, 'Not yet!' I pulled back.

It's sad that because I have one friend who is in the public eye, just being seen out together once means we're romantically involved. But I don't take it seriously, and it doesn't really affect me much.

What would air travel look like if airplanes were thrown out after each flight? No one would be flying in airplanes.

Boys used to call me Soda in school days. Soda means 'serving officers daughters association.' I miss those days when I had a very protected life: one could get close and bond with other army people that they gradually would become your extended family.

The Monkees are like the mafia. You're in for life. Nobody gets out.

I think what happens is you write how you grew up. And I was born on the prairie, and so everything is kind of spare on the prairie. And so I'm just used to writing in that way. 'Sarah, Plain and Tall' was that way. And most of my fiction is. I like writing small pieces. Somehow it just suits me.

In this very moment you hold the power to change someone else's life for the better. Go do it.

There was no relationship between a wedding dress and fashion. There was no good taste, either. I realized that I could make an impression in terms of changing and readdressing the whole industry of bridal.

I used to have hamburgers coming and going, especially when I was on the road. Now, occasionally I will still have that quarter pounder because I love fast food, but you have to keep it to a minimum. I am now opting for salads and just healthier lunches.
