life

"Your emotions are the slaves to your thoughts, and you are the slave to your emotions."

"Life is like a novel. It's filled with suspense. You have no idea what is going to happen until you turn the page."

"I'm always happy,"Sasha said. "Sometimes I just forget."

"Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough"

"I love you, even if there isn’t any me, or any love, or even any life. I love you."

"What can we see, read, acquire, but ourselves. Take the book, my friend, and read your eyes out, you will never find there what I find."

"Personally I am very pessimistic. But when, for instance, one of my staff has a baby you can't help but bless them for a good future. Because I can't tell that child, 'Oh, you shouldn't have come into this life.' And yet I know the world is heading in a bad direction. So with those conflicting thoughts in mind, I think about what kind of films I should be making."

"To live is so startling it leaves little time for anything else."

"If there is no love in the world, we will make a new world, and we will give it walls, and we will furnish it with soft, red interiors, from the inside out, and give it a knocker that resonates like a diamond falling to a jeweller's felt so that we should never hear it. Love me, because love doesn't exist, and I have tried everything that does."

"If, then, I were asked for the most important advice I could give, that which I considered to be the most useful to the men of our century, I should simply say: in the name of God, stop a moment, cease your work, look around you."

"...people with nothing to declare carry the most."

"And meanwhile time goes about its immemorial work of making everyone look and feel like shit."

"It is worth it to leave behing my minor life for grander maybes-Miles "Pudge"

"I've known my best friend since I was a baby, and I don't know what I would do without her. She is always straight with me and can make me laugh hysterically. Everyone should have someone like that in their life."

"Art is the reason I get up in the morning, but the definition ends there. It doesn't seem fair that I'm living for something I can't even define."

"No one here gets out alive."

"I had rather be shut up in a very modest cottage with my books, my family and a few old friends, dining on simple bacon, and letting the world roll on as it liked, than to occupy the most splendid post, which any human power can give."

"Oh, man, if in real life I was as cool and suave as Coach Taylor and had all the answers, things would be easier."

"A love story in six words: Hello. Goodbye. In between was marriage."

"All that happens means something; nothing you do is ever insignificant."
