Ibsen was Norwegian by birth, but universal in spirit.

The best thing that can come with success is the knowledge that it is nothing to long for.

The older one gets in this profession, the more people there are with whom one would never work again.

We all need somebody to talk to. It would be good if we talked... not just pitter-patter, but real talk. We shouldn't be so afraid, because most people really like this contact; that you show you are vulnerable makes them free to be vulnerable.

Sometimes I get a little tired of it. But you know, what a privilege, to get tired of working with Ingmar Bergman.

Famous quote by Ed Fallon

What are you trying to protect heterosexual marriages from? There isn't a limited amount of love in Iowa. It isn't a non-renewable resource. If Amy and Barbara or Mike and Steve love each other, it doesn't mean that John and Mary can't.

Famous quote by George Plimpton

At the base of it was the urge, if you wanted to play football, to knock someone down, that was what the sport was all about, the will to win closely linked with contact.

Top 5 quotes by Bob Feller

If you believe your catcher is intelligent and you know that he has considerable experience, it is a good thing to leave the game almost entirely in his hands.

Where the ball went was up to heaven. Sometimes I threw the ball clean up into the stands.

When I pick up the ball and it feels nice and light and small I know I'm going to have a good day. But if I picked it up and it's big and heavy, I know I'm liable to get into a little trouble.

Sympathy is something that shouldn't be bestowed upon the Yankees. Apparently it angers them.

Top 5 quotes by Jacqueline Bisset

Character contributes to beauty. It fortifies a woman as her youth fades.

What comes first in a relationship is lust - then more lust.

The thing about anything in life is you have to get ready for it. Study, learn and in terms of acting, there's a lot to learn. The bigger culture you have in life, the better actor you'll be. You'll have more to pull on.

The deeper interior you have the more you have in your llibrary.

You need to get in touch with your body ... do dance, movement, learn to be supple, or be someone who's coordinated, preferably. You have to study, train, and you don't have to go to school necessarily, you can teach yourself a lot of stuff.

Top 5 quotes by Rosa Parks

Why do you all push us around?

At the time I was arrested I had no idea it would turn into this. It was just a day like any other day. The only thing that made it significant was that the masses of the people joined in.

The nice thing about being a celebrity is that when you bore people, they think it's their fault.

Claude Lévi-Strauss quotes

The scientist is not a person who gives the right answers, he is one who asks the right questions.

Language is a form of human reason, which has its internal logic of which man knows nothing.

There is one fact that can be established.

Top 5 quotes by Edmund Burke

Among precautions against ambition, it may not be amiss to take precautions against our own. I must fairly say, I dread our own power and our own ambition: I dread our being too much dreaded. … We may say that we shall not abuse this astonishing and hitherto unheard of power. But every other nation will think we shall abuse it. It is impossible but that, sooner or later, this state of things must produce a combination against us which may end in our ruin.

To make us love our country, our country ought to be lovely.

Applaud us when we run, Console us when we fall, Cheer us when we recover.

Toleration is good for all, or it is good for none.

You can never plan the future by the past.

Jean Claude Van Damme quotes

What really helps a guy to become an action hero today is the directing of the movie. All those fast cuts.

God gave me a great body and it's my duty to take care of my physical temple.

I've become 40, my audience is partly the same age.

In an action film you act in the action. If it's a dramatic film you act in the drama.

What is a movie star? It is an illusion. It was everything I ever wanted to be, but it became a kind of shell, non? It was what made me famous and got me women. But it wasn't real.

Famous quote by Christoph Wilhelm Hufeland

Laughter is the most healthful exertion.

Top 5 quotes by Jo Brand

They say men can never experience the pain of childbirth. They can...if you hit them in the goolies with a cricketbat for fourteen hours.

Top 5 quotes by Channing Tatum

I used to work at a puppy nursery.

I don't know if I'm very complicated at all. I wish I was. I wish I was one of these deep, intricate people. But I just love having fun really.

Life is too short to miss out on the beautiful things like a double cheeseburger.

I'm not pretty. The truth is I didn't think I could be a model at all. I was looking at some of the guys on the walls at Irene Marie and I thought to myself 'Jesus Christ. I can't do this. I don't look anything like these guys'.

I sort of became infatuated with soldiers. I got to know some of them and got a little perturbed with Hollywood making a spectacle out of them and making them look like they have screwed up somehow.

Top 5 quotes by Tom Daschle

The campaign is over. It's time for the work of governing to begin.

We have exhausted all of our diplomatic effort to get the Iraqis to comply with their own agreements and with international law. Given that... we have got to force them to comply, and we are doing so militarily.

We know we're up against the wall. We know how difficult a challenge it is, being in the minority.

On issues relating to taxes, you don't always speak with one voice.

This president failed so miserably in diplomacy that we are now forced to war.

R. A. Salvatore quotes

Also, there are authors and publicists using the Internet to manipulate opinion, both positively for a work and negatively against the competition. I don't do this and can't stomach it, honestly.

I do that mostly because I believe that the fantasy business is in terrible trouble right now, for several reasons, not the least of which being the almost Democrat vs. Republican mentality of readers on the Internet.

I don't often know exactly what's coming next, and that makes it more fun. And you know, for me, this entire genre is all about that; it's all about having fun and getting away from the mundane world for just a little while.

I've always been a fighter. If you tell me I can't, I'll die trying to prove you wrong.

I loved to read and to write, but then something happened. As I made my way through school, I kept getting handed books to read that didn't excite me and didn't even remotely connect to the realities of my life.

Jason Isaacs quotes

I can't tell you too much about it because I'm not even meant to tell you that I'm in it. In fact, I might never work again now that I've been talking to you. I'm not in it for very long, let's put it that way.

I'm at the beginning of it. I'm Elektra's last job before the story kicks off.

I don't know if it's a romantic comedy but I'm in the beginning of the first of the season of The West Wing. We shot it last year. I don't know. If anyone asks me to be in one, I'll jump on it.

It's just really, really beautiful. Each scene is one long 15 minute take without cutting. My scene is with Robin Wright-Penn so I'm pretty excited about that.

Quotes by Guy de Maupassant

The essence of life is the smile of round female bottoms, under the shadow of cosmic boredom.

War! When I but think of this word, I feel bewildered, as though they were speaking to me of sorcery, of the Inquisition, of a distant, finished, abominable, monstrous, unnatural thing. When they speak to us of cannibals, we smile proudly, as we proclaim our superiority to these savages. Who are the real savages? Those who struggle in order to eat those whom they vanquish, or those who struggle merely to kill?

History, that excitable and unreliable old lady.

Patriotism is a kind of religion; it is the egg from which wars are hatched.

Adam Pascal quotes

You know, sometimes I get moments of inspiration when I'm writing something and then the task seems so daunting that it just kind of scares me away.

Any show that's bringing in a young audience is doing a good thing, because that's the only way that theater will continue to grow. All the other audience members are going to be dead soon!
