"Every time I went on stage I was so terrified I almost threw up."

-- Sara Blakely

“Literature presents you with alternate mappings of the human experience. You see that the experiences of other people and other cultures are as rich, coherent, and troubled as your own experiences. They are as beset with suffering as yours. Literature is a kind of legitimate voyeurism through the keyhole of language where you really come to know other people's lives--their anguish, their loves, their passions. Often you discover that once you dive into those lives and get below the surface, the veneer, there is a real closeness.”
“Kindness is the cause of all anxiety.”
“The principle trap that the devil sets for young people is idleness.”
“I read as many books about the psychology of a psychopath as I could and I researched what exactly happens to soldiers.”
“We don't work for each other, We work with each other.”
“I love acting, and that's my passion. So I would love to do more movies and some serious things”
“Joseph Gotto, yeah. Just all-around one of the more inspiring artists - not because of any sort of specific content direction, but rather the respect that I had for his own work and the ability for him to translate his ideas into useful form for me as a student.”
“Even if you play perfectly, a fault of your opponent's can destroy the entire beauty of the game.”
