Ray Charles // "I'm not into the money thing. You can only sleep in one bed at a time. You can only eat one meal at a time, or be in one car at a time. So I don't have to have millions of dollars to be happy."
Elizabeth Taylor // "I'm not fascinated by things. I dive into them. One is fascinated by fire. But when I was a toddler...I was so fascinated by it that I reached out and touched it. That's the difference...I get totally involved."
Amedeo Modigliani // "When I know your soul, I will paint your eyes."
Arthur C. Clarke // "Sometimes I think we're alone in the universe, and sometimes I think we're not. In either case, the idea is quite staggering."
Gregory Peck // "Tough times don't last, tough people do, remember?"
Eduardo Galeano // "Each person shines with his or her own light. No two flames are alike. There are big flames and little flames, flames of every color. Some people's flames are so still they don't even flicker in the wind, while others have wild flames that fill the air with sparks. Some foolish flames neither burn nor shed light, but others blaze with life so fiercely that you can't look at them without blinking and if you approach you shine in the fire."
Paloma Picasso // "Sometimes I get very dressed up just to go to the corner for some bread. I dress for my own amusement."
Amy Poehler // "I cannot stress enough that the answer to life's questions is often in people's faces. Try putting your iPhones down once in a while, and look in people's faces. People's faces will tell you amazing things. Like if they are angry, or nauseous or asleep."
Anne Frank // "It's difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart."
Winston Churchill // "To each there comes, in their lifetime, a special moment when they are figuratively tapped on the shoulder and offered the chance to do a very special thing, unique to them and fitted to their talents. What a tragedy if that end finds them unprepared or unqualified for that which could have been their finest hour."
Alfred Hitchcock // "I think hatred is wasted energy, and it's all non-productive...I know we're only human, we do go in for these...negative emotions, but when all these are removed and you can look forward and the road is clear ahead, and now you're going to create something — I think that's as happy as I'll ever want to be."
Mia Farrow // "I'm going to take the high road because the low road is so crowded."
