3 December 2020 Marcus Garvey If you have no confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life.
3 December 2020 Peter Mayhew It was amazing that during rehearsals, without any of the costume on, the character was there complete. It just happened. Half the time, I didn’t know I was doing it.
3 December 2020 Billy Joel For whatever reason, not all people are born with the particular gift of being able to express ourselves through music. And, believe me, it is a gift.
3 December 2020 Abraham Lincoln You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.
3 December 2020 Ray Bradbury Love. Fall in love and stay in love. Write only what you love, and love what you write. The key word is love. You have to get up in the morning and write something you love, something to live for.
3 December 2020 Willie Mays I was very fortunate to play sports. All the anger in me went out. I had to do what I had to do. If you stay angry all the time, then you really don’t have a good life.
3 December 2020 Zbigniew Brzezinski I think it is important to ask ourselves as citizens, not as Democrats attacking the administration, but as citizens, whether a world power can really provide global leadership on the basis of fear and anxiety?
3 December 2020 Vera Wang Design is about point of view, and there should be some sort of woman or lifestyle or attitude in one’s head as a designer.
3 December 2020 Martin Luther King, Jr. I am not interested in power for power’s sake, but I’m interested in power that is moral, that is right and that is good.
3 December 2020 Ray Lewis My mom calls me an older soul because, growing up, she taught me stuff real early. Now I spend most of my time chasing wisdom, chasing understanding.
3 December 2020 Brian Eno There are certain sounds that I’ve found work well in nearly any context. Their function is not so much musical as spatial: they define the edges of the territory of the music.
3 December 2020 Keith Richards Another thing to do with the blues is how they were recorded. They were done on the quick, and some of that stuff was made on wire, not even tape, let alone digital.
3 December 2020 Richard Rogers Of course I know very little about architecture, and the older I get the less I know.
3 December 2020 Maggie Q It’s just cool for a girl to be able to do her own thing. I do a lot of movies, and I’m very lucky, and I’m not complaining. But in movies, alongside big action men, we’ve always got to take a step back and let the men shine.
3 December 2020 Alyssa Milano I deal with postpartum feelings by reaching out to mom friends. I became very close with some of the women in my prenatal yoga class.
3 December 2020 Felicity Jones I’m interested in all forms of performance, yet I think it’s difficult to be as equally talented in all of them as they call for such different skills. At the moment, I still feel I’m learning and want as much experience and variety as possible.
3 December 2020 Clare Short That feeds anger, and I mean when we went and at last thank heavens got towards peace in Northern Ireland we went for justice within Northern Ireland as well as using security well, as well as a political settlement, but surely that is the lesson.
3 December 2020 Giovanni Ribisi I’m so critical of myself. I’m actually really, really proud of the film. It’s really cool to see a movie at Sundance because everybody is so supportive.
3 December 2020 Tadao Ando But now, more and more, its society is concerned with economy and finance.
3 December 2020 Noah Webster The Bible must be considered as the great source of all the truth by which men are to be guided in government as well as in all social transactions.
3 December 2020 Peter Porter I started off in England and very few people knew I was Australian. I mean, the clues were in the poems, but they didn’t read them very carefully, and so for years and years I was considered completely part of the English poetry scene.
3 December 2020 Hugh Jackman I was probably more scared of my high school exams than I was of the Oscars. At the time you think it’s everything and if you don’t do well, your life’s over. Opportunities are gone. So the more you do it, the less the fear is present.
3 December 2020 Kofi Annan Gender equality is more than a goal in itself. It is a precondition for meeting the challenge of reducing poverty, promoting sustainable development and building good governance.
3 December 2020 Carlos Santana I realised a long time ago that instrumental music speaks a lot more clearly than English, Spanish, Yiddish, Swahili, any other language. Pure melody goes outside time.
3 December 2020 Aldous Huxley Proverbs are always platitudes until you have personally experienced the truth of them.
3 December 2020 Patti Stanger If you’re giving love and not receiving it, you’re not in the right relationship. If you’re receiving it and not giving it than you are taking advantage of the other person.
3 December 2020 Diana Vreeland Poor, darling fellow – he died of food. He was killed by the dinner table.
3 December 2020 Arthur Miller It is my art. I am better at it than I ever was. And I will do it as long as I can. When you reach a certain age you can slough off what is unnecessary and concentrate on what is. And why not?
