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。

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。

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。

拋棄今天的人，不會有明天；而昨天，不過是行去流水。

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 would live to study, and not study to live.

Everything comes to you in the right moment. Be patient. Be grateful.

The only really good piece of advice I have for my students is, 'Write something you'd never show your mother or father.' And you know what they say? 'I could never do that!'

A trade war would be a disaster for the world. It's very easy to slip into a trade war.

That's just my family's mentality. We are a very loving, hugging and kissing kind of family. And we grew up in a church atmosphere and still have that atmosphere. There is no negativity.

A lot of people have something to say about 'Wuthering Heights,' but nobody quite nails it.

In this world no one rules by love; if you are but amiable, you are no hero; to be powerful, you must be strong, and to have dominion you must have a genius for organizing.

My real name is actually Ivana.

Rescue someone unwilling to look after himself, and he will cling to you like a dangerous illness.

Philippians 4:13 has never rung so true... You were an unparalleled Giant in all sense of the word, Dad. So keep doin' you up there, because no one does it better, and no one ever will.

As an actor, you have to give up all control to the director. He's the boss, and has all the power. I'm a control freak, so that's really hard for me.

That can be the most painstaking aspect of being a teen, figuring out what the world really looks like. If you find someone in a book, you know you're not alone and that's what's so comforting about books.

When I talk about work or my take on life, all the joyfulness and excitement never seem to make it in.

Sometimes, but the year I lived in France I started to write songs.

I gladly accepted the commission but was uncertain about what the end result would be. On the one hand, Cuban music was conquering the world; being heard everywhere, and our small island was already producing one of the popular musical genres of the 20th century.

We're losing social skills, the human interaction skills, how to read a person's mood, to read their body language, how to be patient until the moment is right to make or press a point. Too much exclusive use of electronic information dehumanises what is a very, very important part of community life and living together.

In scouting you are combating the brooding of selfishness.

I am aware of the usefulness of science to society and of the benefits society derives from it.

I always believed in God, I would go to mass most of the time, but I had no idea of the calling to holiness.

Right now I just finished writing the music for a Rugrats feature film and the third week of September I go to London, and the Orchestra is going to perform the score.

I think it might be nice to date someone not in the business.

We do not fully understand the consequences of rising populations and increasing energy consumption on the interwoven fabric of atmosphere, water, land and life.
