拋棄今天的人，不會有明天；而昨天，不過是行去流水。

任何人都應該有自尊心自信心獨立性，不然就是奴才。但自尊不是輕人，自信不是自滿，獨立不是弧立。

凡能獨立工作的人，一定能對自己的工作開闢一條新的路線。

生命如同寓言，其價值不在長短，而在內容。

對人說不，生命是一切寶物中最高的東西。

生命是肉體和靈魂的結合，別丟失了！

懂得生命真諦的人，可以使短促的生命延長。

真正的聖者的信條是善用生命，充分地利用生命。

生命在閃耀中現出絢爛，在平凡中現出真實。

生命是美麗的，對人來說，美麗不可能與人體的正常發育和人體的健康分開。

我總覺得，生命本身應該有一種意義，我們絕不是白白來一場的。

內容充實的生命就是長久的生命。我們要以行為而不是以時間來衡量生命。

生命苦短，只是美德能將它傳到遙遠的後世。

沒有人生活在過去，也沒有人生活在未來，現在是生命確實佔有的唯一形態。

年輕只知學習營利，乃生命中最黯淡之時刻。

命的意義是在於活得充實，而不是在於活得長久。

生命是美好的，一切物質是美好的，智慧是美好的，愛是美好的！

人生有兩出悲劇：一是萬念俱灰，另一是躊躇滿志。

最聰明的人是最不願浪費時間的人。

真正的敏捷是一件很有價值的事。因為時間是衡量事業的標準，如金錢是衡量貨物的標準。

在時間的大鐘上，只有兩個字——現在。

為瞭解人生有多麼短暫，一個人必須走過漫長的生活道路。

在所有的批評中，最偉大最正確最天才的是時間。

你若是愛千古，你應該愛現在；昨日不能喚回來，明日還是不實在；你能確有把握的，只有今日的現在。

三萬六千日，夜夜當秉燭。白日何短短，百年若易海。

我只惋惜一件事，日子太短，過得太快。一個人從來看不出做成什麼，只能看出還應該作什麼？

不要貶低黃昏，黃昏同清晨一樣是成就事業的時間。

I learned to write fiction the way I learned to read fiction by skipping the parts that bored me.

Musicians are there in front of you, and the spectators sense their tension, which is not the case when you're listening to a record. Your attention is more relaxed. The emotional aspect is more important in live music.

I couldn't wait to be an adult woman, and I'm glad I felt that way as a kid because, when I grew up, I realised I live in a world where the female form is really disrespected, and society is often trying to wrestle the female form into a shape that looks more like a young boy.

Design isnt crafting a beautiful textured button with breathtaking animation. Its figuring out if theres a way to get rid of the button altogether.

Tim Tebow is one of my biggest inspirations. I actually want to be able to do some of the things that he does in terms of the amount of charity work and the non-profit work, and the way he impacts people off the field. I think that is what is most inspiring to me about him.

All that is worth seeing in good boxing can best be witnessed in a contest with soft gloves. Every value is called out: quickness, force, precision, foresight, readiness, pluck, and endurance. With these, the rowdy and 'rough' are not satisfied.

I remember when I was about 18, Sean Penn made a bet with me. He had just directed his first movie, and he's like, 'By the time you're 30, I will bet you $500 that you'll be sick of acting.' I'm still waiting to collect, because I'm not.

Home of lost causes, and forsaken beliefs, and unpopular names, and impossible loyalties!

Life moves so fast. You gotta document the good times, man.

Songs that aren't even remotely connected to Christmas are now officially canonized Christmas tunes. 'Frosty the Snowman,' 'Jingle Bells' and 'Winter Wonderland' never mention anything religious but are still notches in Christmas' belt of musical dominance.

I love the role that men play in our lives.

I think I am a good running back, but I'm really not that fast. There is only one thing I can do, that is throw a cross-body block. Picture perfect. I love it. Not that good at pass blocking.

I wouldn't call it bitter. I think it's just sweet. I've always believed my life seems like it's gotten better and better as each decade has gone by. So I don't see any I don't see any bitterness about it.

Europe and the euro zone have no reason, rationally, to push Greece out of the euro. But this is a system in which many parties, many countries, many governments, many electorates participate and we could have events which, rationally, are not controllable.

Duty is for Kant the One and All. Out of the duty of gratitude, he claims, one has to defend and esteem the ancients; and only out of duty has he become a great man.

A little acting debut in Spin City, with Michael J. Fox, which opened up a whole new door for me.

Missing someone is not about how long it has been since you have seen them or the amount of time since you have talked; it is about that very moment when you are doing something and wishing they were there with you.

I have been struck again and again by how important measurement is to improving the human condition.

I've got my own style on the guitar, sure, and I play rhythm in a certain way, and I use certain inflections. People have said that to me, and I understand it.

It is important that we relish the food we eat. If we cannot do this, but eat mechanically, our food does not do us that good it should, and we fail to be nourished and built up by it as we otherwise would be, if we could enjoy the food we take into the stomach.

The best piece of advice I've ever been given was, 'Be in the business you're in.' Don't just be a satellite around it and expect it to come to you. Be in the business you're in.

Through all of this lovely interviewing, and nice things people say, and the rest of it, I have learned that I am an actor. That is my profession. That is my job. That is how I make a living. So I am just out there making a living.
