Be patient, for the world is broad and wide.

Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt.

Be not afraid of greatness: Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.

Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.

Have more than thou showest, Speak less than thou knowest.

The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.

Let life be short; else shame will be too long.

This above all: to thine ownself be true. And it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.

No legacy is so rich as honesty.

Certain, men should be what they seem.

All that glisters is not gold.

Talking isn't doing. It is a kind of good deed to say well; and yet words are not deeds.

Time travels in diverse paces with diverse persons. I’ll tell you who time ambles withal, who time trots withal, who time gallops withal, and who he stands still withal.

Men at some time are masters of their fates. The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves, that we are underlings.

Fortune brings in some boats that are not steer'd.

I love to run. I was challenged to run the New York marathon four months after having my youngest son, and since running isn't a big part of softball, the thought of a marathon was a stretch for me.

What lies behind appearance is usually another appearance.

'2001' is a really interesting movie because it came out in 1968, and everybody thought that that was possible, and look how ridiculous that was. We don't have ships like that, and you know, nobody in 1968 was going, 'Oh, that'll never happen!' But of course it never happened. We're not even close to it.

The main point for me is that toys are incredibly more important than we realized.

When there's a terrible illness like AIDS sweeping through, you help people.

Maybe it's just my improv and sketch background, but I'm a lot more comfortable in a group. I like sharing focus and populating an ensemble.

I don't like to see people on trolleys in hospitals; I don't like to see old people sitting in chairs for hours.

Over intellect will make you a genius, over emotions will make you a lunatic.

I won't say that writing is therapy, but for me, the act of writing is therapy. The ability to be productive is good for my mental health. It's always better for me to be writing than vegetating on some couch.

At the end of the day, if the guy is going to write the girl a letter, whether it's chicken scratch or scribble or looks like a doctor's note, if he takes the time to put pen to paper and not type something, there's something so incredibly romantic and beautiful about that.

We are ever on the threshold of new journeys and new discoveries. Can you imagine the excitement of the Wright brothers on the morning of that first flight? The anticipation of Jonas Salk as he analyzed the data that demonstrated a way to prevent polio?

The future of Arab films is absolutely up to Arabs and no one else. They've got the equipment, they've got the will, they've got the talent, now they just need a little bit of history behind them and a bit of cultural relaxation.

There's the assumption being made by the national security advisers to the Obama administration that the North Korean leadership is not suicidal, that they know they will be obliterated if they attacked the United States. But I would point that everything in South Korea and Japan is well within range of what they might want to do.

'Doctor Who' was the first mythology that I learned, before ever I ran into Greek or Roman or Egyptian mythologies.

The richer you are and the more financial advisers you employ, the less likelihood there is that you can ever discover what you are really worth.

The biggest difference between England and America is that England has history, while America has geography.

The real romantics imagine greying and sagging and wrinkling as the deepening of something sacred.

Do not let the Obama administration fool you with all their cunning Alinsky methods. And if you don't know what that method is, I implore you to get the book 'Rules for Radicals,' by Saul Alinsky. Mr. Obama is very well trained in these methods.

I believe that, if managed well, the Fourth Industrial Revolution can bring a new cultural renaissance, which will make us feel part of something much larger than ourselves: a true global civilization. I believe the changes that will sweep through society can provide a more inclusive, sustainable and harmonious society. But it will not come easily.

Confusion of goals and perfection of means seems in my opinion to characterize our age.

The wish fulfillment of growing younger is not necessarily all it's cracked up to be. You have new problems that arise which you are not anticipating and you deal with the same problems you would deal with if you were ageing normally: what is the end of life about? What have I accomplished?

Being bi-racial and being from the country, I can talk to guys like Travis Frederick from Wisconsin and Doug Free from Wisconsin. And then I can go over and talk to Dez Bryant. I mean, think about the two different standpoints you need to have a real conversation with both, to really understand what they've been through.

Food makes travel so exceptional, because you get to taste what it's actually supposed to taste like. To eat the real Pad Thai or finally have a proper curry is something pretty amazing.

Games are natures most beautiful creation.
