When I face the media, maybe I don't feel it now, here with you, because it's a different sort of interview, but when I face the media before or after the game, I feel it as part of the game. ~Jose Mourinho

Selfishness and demagoguery take advantage of liberty. The selfish hand constantly seeks to control government, and every increase of governmental power, even to meet just needs, furnishes opportunity for abuse and stimulates the effort to bend it to improper uses. ~Charles Evans Hughes

Everything we "know" from above [heaven], we know from down here [earth]. How can you take something like that seriously? ~Steve Stevaert

I don't know what life was like 1,000 years ago, but I imagine there was the same struggle; people trying to connect with each other. ~Spike Jonze
#quotes #spike-jonze #life #communication

Loyalty, Signor Molteni, not love. Penelope is loyal to Ulysses but we do not know how far she loved him; and as you know people can sometimes be absolutely loyal without loving. In certain cases, in fact, loyalty is form of vengeance, of black-mail, of recovering one's self-respect. Loyalty, not love. ~Alberto Moravia

I have resolved never to start an unjust war, but never to end a legitimate one except by defeating my enemies. ~Charles XII of Sweden
#quotes #charles-xii-of-sweden #war #military

From early childhood, I was interested in understanding how the world worked, and assumed I would be some kind of physical scientist or chemist. But the truth was, I didn't know there was another kind of world, the inner world, that was just as interesting, if not more relevant, than what was going on in the outside world. ~Stephen LaBerge

Taste refers to the past, imagination to the future. ~Mason Cooley

Right, and the definition of basic stupidity is to keep doing the same thing over and over again while expecting a different result. I am not stupid. I didn't say to keep doing it. Move forward with purpose. Examine what went wrong and correct that one mistake. ~Sherrilyn Kenyon

I didn't want to fall into the trap of competing with all these other great guitar players. I just want to sidestep the whole thing and get out of the race. ~Kirk Hammett
#quotes #kirk-hammett #music #competition

Authors are far closer to the truths enfolded in mystery than ordinary people, because of that very audacity of imagination which irritates their plodding critics. As only those who dare to make mistakes succeed greatly, only those who shake free the wings of their imagination brush, once in a way, the secrets of the great pale world. If such writers go wrong, it is not for the mere brains to tell them so ~Gertrude Atherton
#quotes #gertrude-atherton #writing #reality

In reading a novel, any novel, we have to know perfectly well that the whole thing is nonsense, and then, while reading, believe every word of it. Finally, when we're done with it, we may find, if it's a good novel, that we're a bit different from what we were before we read it, that we have changed a little. But it's very hard to say just what we learned, how we were changed. ~Ursula K. Le Guin

A kiss without a hug is like a flower without the fragrance. ~Proverb

Artists are always looking for new things and fresh ground and fresh air. If it feels new to me, there's a chance it'll feel new to the audience and we'll have found something. ~Jerry Seinfeld

I am going to embarrass myself. I have accepted that fact, and that is just how it is going to be. ~Jen Lancaster
#quotes #jen-lancaster

I realized that even in a world of proliferating media venues, online and in print, and on TV and on countless cable channels, the idea that I could be considered an expert on chronic knee pain was I think troubling for society, but very exciting for me. ~John Hodgman

I didn't go to drama school, so I feel like I did all my growing up on "Hollyoaks." ~Nathalie Emmanuel
#quotes #nathalie-emmanuel #entertainment

I would like, if I can, to broaden the possibilities of the musical theater. I think there is a better "Oklahoma!" someplace, a better "West Side Story." And I would like to be mixed up in it. ~Richard Rodgers
