The invention of ethical and political doctrines, which blossomed into our own social sciences, is a product of times when things appeared manageable. The same goes for the criticism of those doctrines, though as a voice from the past, this criticism proved prophetic. Joseph Brodsky Read Quote
I almost literally wake up in the morning starting to think of my next idea. It’s almost always driven by what’s in the news. The hard part, really, is getting from knowing what I want to say to figuring out how to say it in an image. I’m still not entirely sure how to explain how that happens… Suddenly, something just works. David Horsey Read Quote
Thankfully, I have a very full life. I’m married with kids, so I have a lot of things to focus on, other projects either in post-production or pre-production, so you just do the best you can. Matt Bomer Read Quote
When I’m up on stage, I don’t think about anything except the song I’m singing. Anyway, the majority of my audience is female, and I can’t think that many of them want to see me a French maid outfit somehow! Louise Nurding Read Quote

There are two types of people, you see. One type keep their heads straight, and look around as they walk. The others look up – at the tops of houses, at the eaves and the lintels and the roofs, which can tell you when they were built – and I’ve always done that. Peter Ackroyd Read Quote
I’ve got my advanced scuba diving license. I’m playing tennis and exercising. I ride my bike everywhere. I’ve been finding new things. I’ve been more creative in music and doing different videos. And just meeting different people and being around and present. I’m wonderful when I’m just on nothing. Albert Hammond, Jr. Read Quote
I just don’t want to be known as the actress who can sing. I want to be known as the singer who can act, too. It’s great cross-promotion. Mandy Moore Read Quote
When you seek out – or seek to avoid – your own reflection, the modern city becomes a hall of mirrors: car windows, reflective walls, and plate glass are everywhere, transmitting a cacophony of different versions of you – this one too short, that one too wide, another one with a sickly color you’ve never seen before.
