"When I was on The View, Barbara Walters was asking me about the blood and stuff, and I said, 'Well, you know, that's a staple of Japanese cinema.' And then she came back, 'But this is America.' And I go, 'I don't make movies for America. I make movies for planet Earth.'"

-- Quentin Tarantino

“There is a danger in the word someday when what it means is â€œnot this day.â€...The scriptures make the danger of delay clear. It is that we may discover that we have run out of time. The God who gives us each day as a treasure will require an accounting. We will weep, and He will weep, if we have intended to repent and to serve Him in tomorrows which never came or have dreamt of yesterdays where the opportunity to act was past. This day is a precious gift of God. The thought â€œSomeday I willâ€ can be a thief of the opportunities of time and the blessings of eternity.”

I think, in life, we rise to whatever the bar is. I've been fortunate to rise with them.”
“Hope gives us the courage to confront our circumstances and the capacity to surmount them.”
