3 December 2020 Daisaku Ikeda Divorced from the cosmos, from nature, from society and from each other, we have become fractured and fragmented.
3 December 2020 Scott Foley The best part is it’s a dream come true. I’ve always wanted to be a working actor, and the good part of it… it’s all good! I work long hours, but it’s amazing. They pay me. That’s amazing! I get to kiss Keri Russell, and that ain’t too bad.
3 December 2020 Andy Cohen I’m big on being positive. I’m generally so positive and happy. I just always felt that I was exactly where I wanted to be. And things have continued to go in great directions.
3 December 2020 Pierre Salinger I’ve had at least my share of tragedy, but I have had far more than my share of happiness.

3 December 2020 Alton Brown I’m going from doing all of the work to having to delegate the work – which is almost harder for me than doing the work myself. I’m a lousy delegator, but I’m learning.
3 December 2020 Barbara Walters The sports page records people’s accomplishments, the front page usually records nothing, but man’s failures.
3 December 2020 John Forbes Nash, Jr. I seem to be thinking rationally again in the style that is characteristic of scientists. However, this is not entirely a matter of joy as if someone returned from physical disability to good physical health.
3 December 2020 Tahar Ben Jelloun I came to poetry through the urgent need to denounce injustice, exploitation, humiliation. I know that’s not enough to change the world. But to remain silent would have been a kind of intolerable complicity.
3 December 2020 Emmanuel Teney As your faith is strengthened you will find that there is no longer the need to have a sense of control, that things will flow as they will, and that you will flow with them, to your great delight and benefit.

3 December 2020 Katy Perry I still have a spiritual base and a spiritual foundation. And my conversation with God is very open-ended. I pray for humility, honestly, because it’s very easy to be caught up in this world.
3 December 2020 Richard Attenborough What I am sad about is that there is now, in America, no equivalent to the art circuit.

3 December 2020 Zoe Saldana Growing up, my dolls were doctors and on secret missions. I had Barbie Goes Rambo.

3 December 2020 Joanne Woodward Sexiness wears thin after a while and beauty fades, but to be married to a man who makes you laugh every day, ah, now that’s a real treat.
3 December 2020 Brian Eno I would like to see a future where artists think that they have a right to contemplate things like global warming.
3 December 2020 Swami Vivekananda May He who is the Brahman of the Hindus, the Ahura-Mazda of the Zoroastrians, the Buddha of the Buddhists, the Jehovah of the Jews, the Father in Heaven of the Christians give strength to you to carry out your noble idea.
3 December 2020 Henry A. Kissinger Each success only buys an admission ticket to a more difficult problem.

3 December 2020 Kanye West If you see a black family, it’s looting, but if it’s a white family they are looking for food.
3 December 2020 Gustave Flaubert Oh, if I had been loved at the age of seventeen, what an idiot I would be today. Happiness is like smallpox: if you catch it too soon, it can completely ruin your constitution.
