3 December 2020 Audrey Hepburn I decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally I never expected it to do anything special for me, yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.

3 December 2020 Spike Lee Any film I do is not going to change the way black women have been portrayed, or black people have been portrayed, in cinema since the days of D.W. Griffith.
3 December 2020 Washington Irving There is certain relief in change, even though it be from bad to worse! As I have often found in traveling in a stagecoach, that it is often a comfort to shift one’s position, and be bruised in a new place.
3 December 2020 David Axelrod I think that the millions and millions of young Americans, young Americans, who have health care today, who wouldn’t have had it if the president hadn’t acted are better off.
3 December 2020 Cory Lidle Ninety-nine percent of pilots that go up never have engine failure, and the 1 percent that do usually land it. But if you’re up in the air and something goes wrong, you pull that parachute, and the whole plane goes down slowly.
3 December 2020 Atticus Shaffer Even though I never worked with her, it was still really cool to have Brooke Shields on set. She was so nice and so funny.
3 December 2020 Howard Gardner The countries who do the best in international comparisons, whether it’s Finland or Japan, Denmark or Singapore, do well because they have professional teachers who are respected, and they also have family and community which support learning.
3 December 2020 James A. Baldwin Fires can’t be made with dead embers, nor can enthusiasm be stirred by spiritless men. Enthusiasm in our daily work lightens effort and turns even labor into pleasant tasks.

3 December 2020 Erwin Rommel Anyone who has to fight, even with the most modern weapons, against an enemy in complete command of the air, fights like a savage against modern European troops, under the same handicaps and with the same chances of success.
3 December 2020 Channing Tatum In all the movies I’m in love with someone in my head. There’s always love in a film somewhere. It doesn’t matter even if it’s an action movie.
3 December 2020 Benjamin Walker My dad is kind of a rascal, like in a Dickensian sense. He just goes from career to career.
3 December 2020 William Shenstone Laws are generally found to be nets of such a texture, as the little creep through, the great break through, and the middle-sized are alone entangled in it.
3 December 2020 Vaclav Havel Hope is not the conviction that something will turn out well but the certainty that something makes sense, regardless of how it turns out.
3 December 2020 Gary Bauer I have come to the conclusion that while a candidate’s faith matters, what’s most important is how he or she applies that faith.
