I'm not an aspiring young actor, I'm a storyteller who made it late in life and I'm therefore an inspiration to everyone who thinks that at 23 if you're not in the Backstreet Boys then you're never gonna make it.

If you're bored with life - you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things - you don't have enough goals.

Death is with you all the time; you get deeper in it as you move towards it, but it's not unfamiliar to you. It's always been there, so what becomes unfamiliar to you when you pass away from the moment is really life.
– Bell Hooks

I will not have my life narrowed down. I will not bow down to somebody else's whim or to someone else's ignorance.

I would lay down my life to defend any one of the States from aggression, which endangered peace or threatened its institutions. I could do more for the union, but I wish to do more; for the destruction of the union would be the destruction of all the States. A stab in the heart is worse then a cut in a limb, for this may be healed.
– Sam Houston

One of the great things about being a director as a life choice is that it can never be mastered. Every story is its own kind of expedition, with its own set of challenges.
– Ron Howard

For Christians, the reason why it is ordinarily assumed that a marriage will go on till death do us part has been that this advanced lesson in Charity which marriage opens into is a long, a difficult one, and the life span that my spouse and I are allowed will certainly not be nearly long enough to finish the lesson... I will have as much as I can do to learn this advanced lesson well with one other person; a harem will only confuse my efforts.

What a folly to dread the thought of throwing away life at once, and yet have no regard to throwing it away by parcels and piecemeal.

– Elbert Hubbard
When I first came here, I thought, wouldn't it be great to get a medal, and I was third last year at Worlds, and it was a huge step up for me, and it was just a huge moment in my life, and, y'know, once I got here, it really didn't matter any more to me. I just wanted to go out and enjoy the experience. I wanted to skate.

My desire is to usher in an unprecedented period of cooperation and community building. People reaching across boundaries - be they religious or race, political or geographic - a state that is truly respectful of each individual's pathway toward life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness must be our hope.
– Jon Huntsman, Jr.
Being a painter is a lonely, desolate life, but I learned by observing people, observing conditions around me, the way things worked. And I've found that painting-which I still do-has helped me a great deal as an actor. There's a surprising amount in common.
– John Hurt

I've spent a great deal of my life doing independent film, and that is partly because the subject matter interests me and partly because that is the basis of the film industry. That's where the filmmakers come from, it's where they start and sometimes its where they should have stayed.
– John Hurt

My mother's father drank and her mother was an unhappy, neurotic woman, and I think she has lived all her life afraid of anyone who drinks for fear something like that might happen to her.

Nudes are the greatest to paint. Everything you can find in a landscape or a still life or anything else is there: darkness and light, character dimension, texture. I painted heads too, of course.
– John Hurt

What's the difference, actually, between believing in a God on one side or the other, Catholic or Protestant? It's all the same if you accept it. Much of our morality is based on things completely outmoded. But people are wonderful. There's no harm in them, they're not the problem. It's governments and politics that make wars and do stupid things, and they should be attended to. There's no security in this life.

– Aldous Huxley
– Thomas Henry Huxley
I cannot conceive a more acute pain in the power of sentiment to inflict than that which I should feel if, after a life passed in England or the colonies or India, I were to come back to my native mountains and find that the indifference or the actual discouragement of our leaders had succeeded in destroying the language of my childhood.
– Douglas Hyde
I believe with all my heart that if a man is to give of his best he must live the fundamental life of an ordinary man. One cannot hide behind a title or a position or a throne. One can be proud of one's responsibilities, just as I am, but one cannot use titles or position as a shield.
– King Hussein
I had realized from the outset that vanity was a fatal affliction and that the only life worth adhering to, was one representing a journey of struggle in the service of exalted values and noble aims, one that recognizes that every living soul will meet its destined end, for which there always is a good account. When the time comes, no hour could be postponed or brought forward.
– King Hussein
I never was one of those ambitious people craving for expansion. I believe in God and life after death. Each one of us lives his days according to the will of God. I believe also in nations and that individuals' efforts should be dedicated for the good of nations and not for idolizing persons.
– King Hussein
My dearest wish is for the verdict of future generations to be for me and not against me, since I realize that shouldering responsibility at this point in time entails an acceptance of life's voyage under the most difficult circumstances, which are viciously inimical to those with a great heart and living conscience.
– King Hussein
The quality of life of the individual citizen is the ultimate yardstick by which to measure the success of any government. Jordan's development record, though impressive by many standards, was always hampered not only by the ongoing conflict, but also by the scarcity of resources. Our answer was to invest in our most precious asset, the individual citizen.
– King Hussein
There's so much in the Quran on peace, as there is on submission to one God, the attributes of God, heaven and respect for the other two monotheistic religions. These are teachings we don't much hear about, but they affect me in my political life, supporting my firm belief that I'm doing the right thing. It's along these lines that so much can be taught.
– King Hussein
