3 December 2020 Jeff Foxworthy For the first time ever I was taking the family on the road. We stayed with my in-laws, which on life’s list of experiences ranks right below sitting in a tub full of scissors.
3 December 2020 Gottfried Leibniz Music is the pleasure the human mind experiences from counting without being aware that it is counting.
3 December 2020 Thomas Paine He that rebels against reason is a real rebel, but he that in defence of reason rebels against tyranny has a better title to Defender of the Faith, than George the Third.
3 December 2020 Al Pacino I don’t think actors should ever expect to get a role, because the disappointment is too great. You’ve got to think of things as an opportunity. An audition’s an opportunity to have an audience.
3 December 2020 Mark Twain When people do not respect us we are sharply offended yet in his private heart no man much respects himself.
3 December 2020 Debra Winger When I was younger I probably didn’t understand something basic about tact, but I think it kept faint-hearted people at arm’s distance and that’s not such a bad thing, because life is short and I know the kind of people I want to work with.
3 December 2020 Billy Graham No matter how prepared you think you are for the death of a loved one, it still comes as a shock, and it still hurts very deeply.

3 December 2020 Charles Schumer There are many reasons why Mitt Romney should not become president, but perhaps the most important of all is the narrowness of his experience, perspective and vision.
3 December 2020 Robert Duvall I always figure from the cradle to the grave, we all have our individual journeys, and maybe my journey was a positive one and I accomplished certain things without stepping on too many toes.
3 December 2020 Gary Bauer For the record, I believe elected officials should talk about faith. Our founders believed the moral principles of faith were indispensable to our nation’s survival. The Declaration of Independence mentions God four times.
3 December 2020 Ron Blomberg Competing in sports has taught me that if I’m not willing to give 120 percent, somebody else will.
3 December 2020 Orlando Bloom Yeah, I mean the material, directors, the other cast, and if you think you can do something with the character then you do it and go from there. I am looking forward to doing some smaller movies.
