Creation is all space, all time - all things past, present, and future.

To connect with the great river we all need a path, but when you get down there there's only one river.

A job is something we do to get a paycheck and pay our bills. Jobs are legitimate, at times, but work is why we are here in the universe. Work and calling often go together.

When it comes to wilderness animals we have to make an effort to preserve what areas we can that they can be themselves in. Its come to a point though, clearly, where some species have to be cared for by humans if they are not going to disappear altogether.

I am a Westerner. We're not going to change the West by going East. The East has a lot to teach us, but essentially it's like a mirror, saying, hey, can't you see what's here in your own religion, what are you, stupid?

If you look closely at a tree you'll notice it's knots and dead branches, just like our bodies. What we learn is that beauty and imperfection go together wonderfully.

I don't think that fundamentalism has anything to do with Jesus Christ. They call themselves Christians, but if that's Christian, count me out. Fundamentalism is built on fear and greed. They're telling you to give them your money otherwise you're going to hell.

Beauty saves. Beauty heals. Beauty motivates. Beauty unites. Beauty returns us to our origins, and here lies the ultimate act of saving, of healing, of overcoming dualism.

Evil is the shadow of angel. Just as there are angels of light, support, guidance, healing and defense, so we have experiences of shadow angels. And we have names for them: racism, sexism, homophobia are all demons - but they're not out there.

To recover a spiritual tradition in which creation, and the study of creation, matters would be to inaugurate new possibilities between spirituality and science that would shape the paradigms for culture, its institution, and its people.

We are in the cosmos and the cosmos is in us.

A lot of people want to see this idealized version of heroism, all pretty and perfect, and I'm not interested in playing the goody-goody hero at all.

A lot of the time I hate acting. It has a lot to do with the way I was brought up in a world where showing your emotions is frowned upon. It's just not manly. I don't do anything in life because I love doing it. It's because I want to be good at it.

And as I've gotten deeper into the process of making films and television and such, I think I have more trust in the fact that you really never know what you're going to find after the twenty-fifth take.

Filmmaking is always sort of building a mosaic of this arc of what the character is going through.

I didn't learn to swim until I was 21 or something because I grew up in the mountains in Wyoming and all the water is glacier runoff and cold.

I directed an episode of 'Party of Five' toward the very end of that show. It was a great experience.

I enjoy a four-seasonal climate and wide-open spaces, so being on an island 2,500 miles into the South Pacific made me feel a little claustrophobic.

I think that there's a hidden darkness in all of us!

I think you've got to take your time and make sure you're making choices that are smart for you.

I turn a lot of stuff down - big, big movies, the kind I wouldn't want to go to the cinema to see.

I'm not really a tropical paradise kind of person.

I'm really enjoying the process of learning to fly. How it will fit into my life down the road - I'm looking forward to discovering that.

I'm sorry, but I can't make a movie with the blonde from 'ER' who is starring in every single bad romantic comedy.

I've always been into cars. Cars are part of our genetic makeup. It's unavoidable.

Sometimes people look to others for answers they can find within themselves. I don't really want the responsibility of being the guy they look to.

Ive always been into cars. Cars are part of our genetic makeup. Its unavoidable.

Our self expression is meant to be a manifestation of the silence of our hearts.

It is precisely the despair of our times that convinces me that a renaissance is right around the corner.

A global awakening can only happen from a spiritual awakening that is of global dimensions.

Other times, you're doing some piece of work and suddenly you get feedback that tells you that you have touched something that is very alive in the cosmos.

I felt like I'd been misplaced in the cosmos and I belonged in Maine.

A purely objective viewpoint does not exist in the cosmos or in politics.

One may understand the cosmos, but never the ego; the self is more distant than any star.

Our dreams are firsthand creations, rather than residues of waking life. We have the capacity for infinite creativity; at least while dreaming, we partake of the power of the Spirit, the infinite Godhead that creates the cosmos.

However, the Bible is called the Word of God because the whole transcript is an inspired, faithful, and infallible record of what God determined essential for us to know about Himself, the cosmos in which we live, our spiritual allies and adversaries, and our fellow man.

Whether you want to call it God or the mystery of the cosmos doesn't matter to me.

In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a secret order.

God who is eternally complete, who directs the stars, who is the master of fates, who elevates man from his lowliness to Himself, who speaks from the cosmos to every single human soul, is the most brilliant manifestation of the goal of perfection.

I'm playing dark history. It's beyond black. I'm dealing with the dark things of the cosmos.

You can find the entire cosmos lurking in its least remarkable objects.

Cross cultural experience teaches us not simply that people have different beliefs, but that people seek meaning and understand themselves in some sense as members of a cosmos ruled by God.

We are the first generation of human beings to have substantial insights into the origin of our cosmos and of human life in it.

Roger Revelle died of a heart attack three months after the Cosmos story was printed. Oh, how I wish he were still alive today. He might be able to stop this scientific silliness and end the global warming scam. He might well stand beside me as a global warming denier.

This is so American, man: either make something your God and cosmos and then worship it, or else kill it.

For in the works of Robert Burns we see the whole cosmos of man's experience and emotion, from zenith to nadir, from birth until death.

The most important scientific revolutions all include, as their only common feature, the dethronement of human arrogance from one pedestal after another of previous convictions about our centrality in the cosmos.
