I've grown tired of smoke and mirrors. I yearn for the clean, well-lighted place.

Change the world by being yourself.

We need to remember what's important in life: friends, waffles, work. Or waffles, friends, work, it doesn't matter. But work is third.

Continue to share your heart with people even if it's been broken.

Symmetry is pleasing but not as sexy. Einstein is cool but Picasso knows what I'm talking about.

There's power in looking silly and not caring that you do.

I just love bossy women. I could be around them all day. To me, bossy is not a pejorative term at all. It means somebody's passionate and engaged and ambitious and doesn't mind leading.

If your career is a bad boyfriend, it is healthy to remember you can always leave and go sleep with somebody else.

Sometimes painful things can teach us lessons that we didn't think we needed to know.

Find a group of people who challenge and inspire you, spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life.

You never know what's around the corner unless you peek. Hold someone's hand while you do it. You will feel less scared.

You've evolved when you realize the effect that your positive contributions to others create ripples of humanity in the sea of life.

Look at that sea, girls--all silver and shadow and vision of things not seen. We couldn't enjoy its loveliness any more if we had millions of dollars and ropes of diamonds.

I'm a Larry David fan, right? And it seems to me that Jewish history from the Talmud on has been a self-deprecating, self-critical kind of humor.

I doubt if we nuns are really as self-sacrificing as we must seem to be to you who live in the world. We don't give everything for nothing, you know. The mystery plays fair.

I really think the key to a film is the chemistry of people.

I'm not allowed to get a big head, I've still got to do the simple things in life.

It was the forty-fathom slumber that clears the soul and eye and heart, and sends you to breakfast ravening.

Every week you have to play well to be the champion.

I'm such an independent person, I always want to do everything myself.

An empty book is like an Infant's soul, in which anything may be written.
