Believe
(page 5)
I believe in hard work, not luck factor. The best efforts will reap the best fruits. Nobody can take all the credit. We don't even talk about the efforts of the director, the writers, other technicians, etc. They all together take a film to another level.
Don't tell me what you believe in. I'll observe how you behave and I will make my own determination.
I don't believe in revenge. When people are bullies it's because of a deeper-rooted issue — either their family life is tough or they're being bullied by someone bigger than they are.
Never explain — your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.
Believe me, it's not easy being an actress and a producer, especially with no big daddy to support you.
I believe it's our responsibility to show our communities the value of all people, to celebrate different, and to take a stand for acceptance and inclusion.
I don't think anything is unrealistic if you believe you can do it.
I believe in persevering. If you persevere, success lies ahead of you.
I don't think that I would consider myself a feminist. I think that I certainly believe in equal rights, I believe that women are just as capable, if not more so in a lot of different dimensions, but I don't, I think have, sort of, the militant drive and the sort of, the chip on the shoulder that sometimes comes with that.
I see Americans of every party, every background, every faith who believe that we are stronger together: black, white, Latino, Asian, Native American; young, old; gay, straight; men, women, folks with disabilities, all pledging allegiance under the same proud flag to this big, bold country that we love. That's what I see. That's the America I know!
I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality... I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.
Attitude and enthusiasm play a big part in my life. I get excited about the things that inspire me. I also believe in laughing and having a good time.
I believe in eating what I like and sweating it out in the gym.
I always tell my clients to be tough, to be strong. Never weaken yourself. I believe God favors only strong persons.
If you believe in yourself anything is possible.
In the 21st century, I believe the mission of the United Nations will be defined by a new, more profound awareness of the sanctity and dignity of every human life, regardless of race or religion.
I believe in Liberty for all men: the space to stretch their arms and their souls, the right to breathe and the right to vote, the freedom to choose their friends, enjoy the sunshine, and ride on the railroads, uncursed by color; thinking, dreaming, working as they will in a kingdom of beauty and love.
If I could give one tip for people — it's not an exercise or nutrition regimen. It's to walk your talk and believe in yourself, because at the end of the day, the dumbbell and diet don't get you in shape. It's your accountability to your word.
Just believe in what you're doing, and keep doing it.
I believe a leaf of grass is no less than the journey-work of the stars.
