Все мы знаем гораздо больше, чем сами думаем. 2. Мы тянемся к делам, в которых талантливы от природы (что, кстати говоря, значит больше, чем наличие университетского диплома по данному предмету). 3. Нет лучшего учителя, чем нужда. 4. Страсть побеждает страх.

Тусуйся с крутыми и классными людьми, рядом с которыми ощутишь себя полным лошарой, если не станешь таким же крутым и классным. Не устану это подчеркивать. Люди, которыми ты себя окружаешь, сильно влияют на то, как ты видишь свой мир и насколько высокую ставишь планку.

Если хочешь это делать, не жди, пока будешь не так занят, или более обеспечен, или «готов», или на 20 фунтов похудеешь. Начинай прямо сейчас. Мы никогда больше не будем так молоды, как сейчас. Навещай своих любимых как можно чаще. Поступай так, словно каждая ваша встреча – последняя.

Мы имеем возможность пребывать в своем теле лишь ограниченное количество времени, так почему бы не радоваться этому путешествию, вместо того чтобы уныло ползти вперед, пока оно не кончится?

Вот каков механизм. У каждого из нас, людей, имеется сознание и подсознание. Однако большинство осознает только свое сознание, поскольку именно с его помощью мы перерабатываем поступающую информацию.

В сознании мы выносим суждения, мучаемся навязчивыми мыслями, ругаем себя за безалаберность, решаем раз и навсегда перестать есть жареное, соображаем, что 2 + 2 = 4, пытаемся припомнить, где, черт возьми, мы оставили ключи от машины – и т. д.

What happened with Hurricane Katrina was the American electorate was forced to look at what lay behind the veneer of chest-beating. We all saw the consequences of having terrible government leadership.

I don't know why sportswriters always have to write bad things about Joaquin Andujar.

A good scientific theory is one which is falsifiable, which has not been falsified.

Maybe the truth is, there's a little bit of loser in all of us. Being happy isn't having everything in your life be perfect. Maybe it's about stringing together all the little things.

It is important to dream big. What we imagine, we become, we achieve. Even if we don't go the yonder, we will reach way much farther than where we currently stand.

Just as I could tell you about my first Andre Norton novel or my first L'Engle or my first Asimov, I could write a paragraph about how each of these writers influenced me, my writing, and my thoughts, and do to this day.

After clearing 9 metres of the descending passage, in about the middle of the afternoon, we came upon a second sealed doorway, which was almost the exact replica of the first.

Reform, that we may preserve.

Here is a fundamental conflict in educated society: We are not supposed to value beauty so highly, and yet who can defend against its sheer power to move, its rhetorical force?

If they're traveling at the speed of light, their month is perhaps the equivalent of twenty of our years. So they're just buzzing around having a good old time, continuously looking.

I am not involved in any 'issues' because it's too sensitive for me - or my wife - to get involved. Every time we express an opinion it becomes a whole thing in itself. And the whole purpose of living in the countryside was to get away from hundreds of people. My wife fell off a horse, and suddenly there are hundreds of people around.

I definitely think that theatre is something I'll keep coming back to in my career for as long as I can. I also think theatre's something you have to be very fit to do. I am fairly fit, but I don't think I could do it all the time.

Those who write the editorials and those who write the columns, they simply are unaccountable. They're free to impose their cultural politics in the name of freedom of the press.

I couldn't knock on people's door; if they answered the door and said, 'I don't want to speak to you,' I'd be like, 'Oh, OK then - I wouldn't either, to be honest.'

Can you imagine that Cuba and Europe's youth, who had forgotten about traditional music, who only thought of rock music, are now looking back towards their grandparents? That is a phenomenon.

Develop the wings of loyalty and you will fly above the dooms of disappointments. Disloyalty has one whistle when its blown opportunities take to their heels.

I very, very rarely get the opportunity to go shopping and actually feel the clothes and try things on. I love shopping, but I do it mostly through Net-a-Porter.

His music was direct from his heart and brain in the purest form possible.

It's so easy for us to misperceive and see the things in others that we want to see. And, when we're wrong, and often we're dead wrong, we miss the truth.
