Crystallize your goals. Make a plan for achieving them and set yourself a deadline. Then, with supreme confidence, determination and disregard for obstacles and other people's criticisms, carry out your plan.
You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality.
No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind.
All the people like us are we, and everyone else is They.
Animals, they are one of the most beautiful gifts we have and, you know, if there are people that have compassion, there are very few people that put their money into animal rescue organizations. And if there is someone that has that passion, animals need all the help they can get.
Flowers always make people better, happier, and more helpful; they are sunshine, food and medicine for the soul.
Life in common among people who love each other is the ideal of happiness.
I found there was only one way to look thin: hang out with fat people.
When you're young, you look at television and think, there's a conspiracy. The networks have conspired to dumb us down. But when you get a little older, you realize that's not true. The networks are in business to give people exactly what they want.

A lot of people are crazy, cruel and negative. They got a little too much time on their hands to discuss everybody else. I have a limited amount of energy to blow in a day.

One of the reasons people stop learning is that they become less and less willing to risk failure.
I'm not an example for how people should live their lives. Never in my life would I ever set out to be an example for people on how to live their lives. If you need an example for how to live, then you just shouldn't have been born. Straight up.
Half the world is composed of people who have something to say and can't, and the other half who have nothing to say and keep on saying it.
People sometimes ask me if it is a sin in the Church of Emacs to use vi. Using a free version of vi is not a sin; it is a penance. So happy hacking.
I would love it if we made more comparisons between current issues and issues of the past. Maybe we'd realize that sometimes 'current issues' and 'past issues' are one and the same. Our world's people still fight over natural resources, kill in the name of religion, occupy regions and give them up — just as we did 'so long ago'.

When a producer like Prasad, who knows people's pulse, is ready to try something new, why not me?
Only married people understand you can be miserable and happy at the same time.
