Text Quotes
Well, wherever you go, whatever you do, you’re still you. You can change your surroundings, start a new life, but you’ll always fall into the same old patterns, make the same kind of friends, commit the same mistakes. The thing you need to change is yourself  (The Thing Quotes) You find that you have to do many things, more than just lift up the camera and shoot, and so you get involved in it in a very physical way. You may find that the picture you want to do can only be made from a certain place, and you’re not there, so you have to physically go there. And that participation may spur you on to work harder on the thing,... because in the physical change of position you start seeing a whole different relationship  (The Thing Quotes) The thing about courage is it’s something that we have to learn and relearn our whole lives. It’s not just in you, it’s in every choice we make every day  (The Thing Quotes) We change people’s lives, at the risk of our own. We change countries, governments, history, gravity. After gravity, culture is the thing that holds humanity in place, in an otherwise constantly shifting and, let’s face it, tiny outcrop in the middle of an infinity of nowhere  (The Thing Quotes) Tennis taught me so many lessons in life. One of the things it taught me is that every ball that comes to me, I have to make a decision. I have to accept responsibility for the consequences every time I hit a ball  (The Thing Quotes) The thing that hurts, that became anger, was when I realized that if you tell the truth, in a country that says you’re entitled to tell the truth, you get your face slapped and you get put out of work  (The Thing Quotes) There are a lot of things I love about acting and one of the things I love the most is, here you are taking words off a page, working with someone you might have met just a week before, and somehow you’re creating a moment that separates itself from space and time. You feel an incredible rush when you have that moment with another actor. You can feel it bounce off one another. Every take you do can reveal different things that were hiding. And things outside the story get revealed to you, too. It’s an incredible way to work and to experience a story  (The Thing Quotes) The thing is most people are afraid to step out, to take a chance beyond their established identity  (The Thing Quotes) I have never gone into a picture without first studying my characterization from all angles. I make a study of the fellow’s life and try to learn everything about him, including the conditions under which he came into this world, his parentage, his environment, his social status, and the things in which he is interested. Then I attempt to get his mental attitude as much as possible  (The Thing Quotes) The thing about happiness is that it doesn’t help you to grow; only unhappiness does that. So I’m grateful that my bed of roses was made up equally of blossoms and thorns. I’ve had a privileged, creative, exciting life, and I think that the parts that were less joyous were preparing me, testing me, strengthening me  (The Thing Quotes) The most important thing in my life, and the thing I try to focus on, is to try not to live a life of cruelty. That means trying to make sure I look people in the eye when I meet them. Sometimes you jump in a taxi, or maybe you only have two minutes with someone, and you never see them again. I try to always look them in the eye and have a real experience of what it is to communicate with someone... I guess it’s about trying to live a life where I’m not contributing to the cruelty in the world... While I am on this planet, I want everyone I meet to know that I am grateful they are here  (The Thing Quotes) The thing I adore about acting is that it’s not me: you get to experience all these emotions, but essentially it’s not you  (The Thing Quotes) And it’s as you get older that you realize that the things that make you strange are the things that make you who you are. And that’s a lovely place to get to  (The Thing Quotes) The thing that inspires me most is empathizing with people’s flaws and seeing how they deal with them. That sort of connection you feel with someone when you realize that maybe even the negative things that they’ve said or done are because of insecurities or injuries they’ve endured  (The Thing Quotes) The thing about taking risks is, if it’s really a risk, you really can fail. It’s only a pretend risk if you really can’t fail  (The Thing Quotes) Stop and appreciate what you have today. Look at what you have with wider eyes, maybe with more compassion and more gratitude for the things that you do have and not the things you don’t have  (The Thing Quotes) When you’re dying and your life is flashing before your eyes, you’re gonna be thinking about the great things that you did, the horrible things that you did and the emotional impact that someone had on you and that you had on somebody else. Those are the things that are relevant. To have some sort of emotional impact that transcends your time, that’s great. As long as you don’t mess it up by being undignified when you’re old  (The Thing Quotes) I think one of the most important things, that this album is for me, and this period in my life, is about gratitude. About recognizing all of the things, daily, that I’m grateful for, and there are many in my life. I’m just so blessed, and I try to carry that with me every day  (The Thing Quotes) Vegetarianism is a link to perfection and peace. But it’s a small link. There are lots of other issues: apartheid, vivisection, political prisoners, the arms race. There’s so much going on in this world today, so much ignorance among people. That’s not to say I’m not standing amongst everybody. But the point is, what can we do now? That’s the thing about vegetarianism; it’s an individual’s decision and it’s something you have control over. How many things do we really have control over?  (The Thing Quotes) That’s the thing about friendship, it’s a lot rarer than love, because there is nothing in it for any body  (The Thing Quotes) The more I read and watched about the meat industry, the more determined I became to keep meat out of my diet. The things I saw in slaughterhouse exposes made me feel sick and I refused to just ignore what I now knew  (The Thing Quotes) When you look at yourself in the mirror, don’t pinpoint the things that you aren’t happy with. Appreciate what you were born with and acknowledge the fact that you are you, and that is something to celebrate  (The Thing Quotes) Is every moment of our lives built into us before we’re born? If it is, does it make us less responsible for the things we do, or is the responsibility built in too?  (The Thing Quotes) I didn’t know the answers, but I could feel that the things that gave life meaning came from a place within and from the nurturing of values like tolerance, charity, and community  (The Thing Quotes) The world is slowly evolving into a place where the things that we have seen as being taboo are starting to open up a bit more  (The Thing Quotes) I love my fans so much! I know I say it all the time, but I really appreciate all the things they have done for me  (The Thing Quotes) Im 48 now and I would like to have another baby. I would love to because of all the things I have learned. It would be like starting all over again. But am I too old? Im young at heart and I would be different this time round  (The Thing Quotes) The thing is, when you see your old friends, you come face to face with yourself. I run into someone I’ve known for 40 or 50 years, and they’re old. And I suddenly realize I’m old. It comes as an enormous shock to me  (The Thing Quotes) My personal style is eclectic, I would say. I always like to mix and match things. Uh, but the thing is that it changes every single day. So if I’m feeling you know a little more rebellious, one day I may dress a little more punk rock. But most of the time I say, pretty consistently, I’m feminine  (The Thing Quotes) One of the things I’ve learned is never to horde ideas, because either they are not so relevant or they’ve gone stale. Whatever it is, pour it out  (The Thing Quotes)
