This is a wonderful day. I’ve never seen this one before.

When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive – to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

When you do something beautiful and nobody notice, do not be sad. For the sun every morning is a beautiful spectacle and yet most of the audience still sleeps.

Every day may not be good, but there’s something good in every day.

She woke up every morning with the option of being anyone she wished. How beautiful it was that she always chose herself.

It's so easy to be grateful for a flower, for a bug, for a beautiful day.

How could I share with you how I felt when two towers that I loved, two pieces of steel and glass and concrete fell down, when actually they took with them thousands of human lives? That is the actual tragedy. But those towers were almost human for me. I was in love with them, and that's why I married them with a tight rope.

We must experience the Truth in a direct, practical and real way. This is only possible in the stillness and silence of the mind; and this is achieved by means of meditation.

I basically wrote the code and the specs and documentation for how the client and server talked to each other.

To tell the truth, I'd join a band with John Lennon any day, but I couldn't join a band with Paul McCartney, but it's nothing personal. It's just from a musical point of view.

I was brought up to express myself only when asked to express myself, and then to do so in a way that's pleasing to hear. But I've always had a need to make my presence known. I was just sort of born that way, I guess. It's my natural tendency.

I have a big fear of change, or negative change, anyway. I'm basically the same person I was when I won 'Idol,' or when I was 10.

Even in my first analysis of a depressive psychosis, I was immediately struck by its structural similarity with obsessional neurosis.

The America we all know has been a story of the many becoming one, uniting to preserve liberty, uniting to build the greatest economy in the world, uniting to save the world from unspeakable darkness.

There's parts of it that I connect to - being a father and everything - but 'Mamma Mia!' allows me to go out there and be me and have fun. I've never really had the chance to do that with so much freedom.

You must mind and not lower the Church in peoples eyes by seeming to be frightened about it for such a little thing.

The best part of learning any profession, when you're really going through those huge stretching escalated times of learning and energy, is when you want to do it so much.

I try to explain to people that the only way to be cool is to be who you truly are, and the only way to live life is to do the things that you want to do and be the person that you want to be no matter who that is or what that is or how you have to do it. That's the only way you can be genuinely happy.

I could be on the court for two hours, and it felt like 10 minutes. It made time go by.

Every healthy person must have a goal in life and that life must have content.

I try not to take myself too seriously, but I do take my work seriously.

Good ideas are common – what’s uncommon are people who’ll work hard enough to bring them about.

Enlightenment values of individual freedom are manifested best in individual acts of criticism and defiance.

The most obvious characteristic of science is its application: the fact that, as a consequence of science, one has a power to do things. And the effect this power has had need hardly be mentioned. The whole industrial revolution would almost have been impossible without the development of science.

Children are the keys of paradise.

I grew up addicted to 'Star Trek' and 'Mission: Impossible.' Now I switch between 'South Park' and 'C-Span.'

The amount of control you have over somebody if you can monitor internet activity is amazing.

Economies are risky. Some industries rise, and others implode, like housing. Some places get richer, and others drop, like Atlantic City. Some people get new jobs that pay better, many lose their jobs or their wages.

In speaking, it is best to be clear and say just enough to convey the meaning.

My mom always says, 'If you don't believe in something, you'll lose yourself completely.'
