Sweet are the little brooks that run O'er pebbles glancing in the sun, Singing in soothing tones.

With fingers weary and worn, With eyelids heavy and red, A woman sat in unwomanly rags, Plying her needle and thread.

No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees, No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds - November!

Dear bells! how sweet the sound of village bells When on the undulating air they swim!

My tears must stop, for every drop Hinders needle and thread.

Coquetry is the champagne of love.

There's a double beauty whenever a swan Swims on a lake with her double thereon.

Some minds improve by travel, others, rather, resemble copper wire, or brass, which get the narrower by going farther.

I saw old Autumn in the misty morn stand shadowless like silence, listening to silence.

I remember, I remember, The house where I was born, The little window where the sun Came peeping in at morn.

Gold! gold! gold! gold! Bright and yellow, hard and cold!

IF [GOD] HAS SPOKEN, WHY IS THE UNIVERSE NOT CONVINCED?

Very often history is a means of denying the past.

Actually, Ive gotten myself into some difficult places because I thought I could fix somebody.

I didn't see the time, largely because there wasn't one.

This means a lot. I'm being recognized for all the blood, sweat and tears I put into a 17-year career.

People should just be aware of how they are eating... yesterday I had a McDonald's breakfast and pizza too - but that's bad.

The only thing I ever wanted to do is never have to work a day in my life.

I don't do drama. I'm a comedian.

You know, Hollywood is a very interesting town - always has been, always will be.
