Mothers see the angel in us because the angel is there. If it's shown to the mother, the son has got an angel to show, hasn't he? When a son cuts somebody's throat the mother only sees it's possible for a misguided angel to act like a devil - and she's entirely right about that!
Booth Tarkington
Image
If humans are organisms like every other organism - which they are - then we should expect that if there are some domains where real scientific progress is possible, then there are others where it is not.
Noam Chomsky
Image
The necessity of procuring good Intelligence is apparent & need not be further urged-All that remains for me to add, is, that you keep the whole matter as secret as possible. For upon Secrecy, Success depends in most Enterprizes of the kind, and for want of it, they are generally defeated, however well planned & promising a favourable issue.
George Washington

An artist's sensitivity to criticism is, at least in part, an effort to keep unimpaired the zest, or confidence, or arrogance, which he needs to make creation possible or an instinct to climb through his problems in his own way as he should, and must.
Christopher Fry

I was driven to give the best possible performance I could based on the material that was given to me and that material was documentary footage of the President speaking to people.
Timothy Bottoms

Faith then, in its relation to salvation, is that confidence by which we accept it as a free gift from the Saviour, and is the only possible way in which the gift of God could be appropriated.
Mark Hopkins
Image
The artist's view of the world and mankind is that which seeks as far as possible to lose itself in its object, illuminating it not from the outside by some light foreign to it, but from within, deriving light from its own core.
Egon Friedell
Image
Only one thing I expect from all of you: to be yourself, to discover your inner beauty, your purity of consciousness, your hidden splendor - and spread it to as many people as possible. People are miserable. Help them to laugh a little, to sing a little, to dance a little.
Rajneesh

It is so much hard work writing your first novel. You're not even sure that it is possible to do.
Asa Larsson

I love seeing guys on the worst possible day and watching them scramble.
Duane Swierczynski
Image
Do the thing itself. Don’t pay much mind to critics or what anyone says about it. Just do it, in any form possible, and watch others doing it. Take it in viscerally, get it by osmosis. Don’t ever read your own reviews, certainly not the good ones.
Holland Taylor

Would it be possible to find a more ungrateful boy, or one with less heart than I have!
Carlo Collodi

Absence of pain makes anything possible
Nicole Blackman

I try to get as close to a childlike level as possible because we were all artists back then.

No design is possible until the materials with which you design are completely understood
Ludwig Mies van der Rohe
Image
We need to create a mood where it is everywhere thought morally right for as many people as possible to acquire capital.
Margaret Thatcher
Image
Whatever is fine and permanent in human achievement has been realised through individuals courageously facing the circumstances of their being and a society is civilised to the extent to which it makes this possible. Terrorism, which aims at putting out thespiritual light, is the antithesis of civilisation.
Malcolm Muggeridge
Image
The phrase 'I can't' doesn't mean anything to me anymore, not because of my ego but because I know anything is possible.
Joe De Sena
Image
But it's the things that preceded it that made that happen, and of course now someone like me thinks, well, if I can do that... then there are a lot of other things that are possible.
Lou Reed

Media reporting denied privacy to anybody doing what I do for a living. It was no longer possible to work on your picture in privacy.
James L. Brooks
Image
Morality is more than possible without God, it is entirely independent of him.
Julian Baggini

Clothing has a great deal to do with the attitudes and energy that others direct towards you. I favor the chic, and tend to avoid the trendy. I think that it's good to be chic when possible because it is more inaccessible.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I want the plot to be as complicated as possible. Usually I'll write all the way through to an end, and then I go back and try to fix the ending so that it makes sense. I don't think out the plot ahead of time.
Heidi Julavits

What is the use of freedom of the press if the government is in possession of all the printing presses, what does freedom of assembly avail if all the meeting places belong to the government? In a society in which there is no more personal and economic freedom, even the freest form of the state cannot make political independence possible.
