People
(page 28)
History is not everything, but it is a starting point. History is a clock that people use to tell their political and cultural time of day. It is a compass they use to find themselves on the map of human geography. It tells them where they are but, more importantly, what they must be.
If you want to be original just try being yourself, because God has never made two people exactly alike.
Surround yourself with great people. People are what make businesses prosper.
People aren't born strong. People grow stronger little by little, encountering difficult situations, learning not to run from them.
Goodness is about character — integrity, honesty, kindness, generosity, moral courage, and the like. More than anything else, it is about how we treat other people.
What I have learned is that a whole lot of people with degrees don't know a damn thing, and a lot of people with no degrees are brilliant.
If there were no bad people, there would be no good lawyers.
I've run into people in my life who were so dramatic; people who are so extreme and so frustrating to be around that you end up thinking about them and talking about them for literally years after your experience with them is over. I've had that happen to me, and I've seen it happen to other people. I find it fascinating.
Be very, very patient and very open-minded, and listen to what people have to say.
Some people ask why people would go into a dark room to be scared. I say they are already scared, and they need to have that fear manipulated and massaged. I think of horror movies as the disturbed dreams of a society.
I love high heels from the age of 10! Short skirts and then high heels. My classmates used to make fun of me. Like, 'Ooh, she's so skinny and she's wearing high heels'. But I just wore what I like, and I didn't care about people's opinions, the same as I don't care now.
The American citizen must be made aware that today a relatively small group of people is proclaiming its purposes to be the will of the People. That elitist approach to government must be repudiated.
There's a constant tension between the excitement of new people and security with one person. If you go with excitement, you create chaos; you hurt people. There's jealousy, and it gets very messy. If you have security, it can be boring, and you die inside because of all the opportunities missed.
It's easy for people in an air-conditioned room to continue with the policies of destruction of Mother Earth. We need instead to put ourselves in the shoes of families in Bolivia and worldwide that lack water and food and suffer misery and hunger.
When the best leader's work is done the people say, 'We did it ourselves'.
People just deserve to be treated with kindness.
Some people are making such thorough preparation for rainy days that they aren't enjoying today's sunshine.
At one point, people are going to have to realize that maybe I know what I'm doing.
I can't believe that people actually know my first and last name. I think it's really, really, gosh-darn neat.
I am, by nature, pretty reserved. It was after I became an actor that I started interacting more with people from different walks of life!
