You
(page 19)
If you know the enemy and know yourself you need not fear the results of a hundred battles.
I believe that life is a journey towards God, and that no one has the right to insist that you go a certain road.
If you want total security, go to prison. There you're fed, clothed, given medical care and so on. The only thing lacking... is freedom.
Success is getting and achieving what you want. Happiness is wanting and being content with what you get.
If you think you can do it, you can.
The most important thing is to have a good relationship with the bike... you have to understand what she wants. I think of a motorcycle as a woman, and I know that sounds silly, but it's true.
Since you cannot do good to all, you are to pay special attention to those who, by the accidents of time, or place, or circumstances, are brought into closer connection with you.
It's a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it.
I said to de Lord, 'I'm goin' to hold steady on to you, an' I know you'll see me through'.
I am whatever you say I am; if I wasn't, then why would you say I am.
When somebody challenges you, fight back. Be brutal, be tough.
You know, there's a real irony in U.S. assistance programs. First of all, I think it's misnamed. We're not so much trying to help people as we're trying to help ourselves. So let's be clear about this. So these are — in my view, they're cold calculations of national security and not aid programs.
When I started working out, it wasn't about weight loss; I was going through a really hard time and needed an emotional release. Once you start getting in the tabloids claiming you have fake body parts, then it's like, 'Okay, I made it. Now I'm really working out'.
I think it's important to find the little things in everyday life that make you happy.
There are certain wicked people in the world that you can't deal with except by force.
I realized that comedians of the day were operating on jokes and punch lines. The moment you say the punch line, the audience either laughs sincerely or they laugh automatically or they don't laugh. The thing that bothered me was that automatic laugh. I said, that's not real laughter.
Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.
If you represent a fantasy for the people who actually go to the cinema, they grab that and go with it; therefore, for the rest of their lives, they actually identify you with a certain thinking — a certain philosophy. There are many actors who want to pursue that same thought in real life as well, and that's perfectly acceptable.
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.
