The belief that we can rely on shortcuts to happiness, joy, rapture, comfort, and ecstasy, rather than be entitled to these feelings by the exercise of personal strengths and virtues, leads to legions of people who, in the middle of great wealth, are starving spiritually.
‐‐ Martin Seligman

The bell that tolls for all in boxing belongs to a cash register.
‐‐ Bob Verdi
The bells cease, and the power goes from me, and I descend again to the world of the living; and if in some foolish confiding moment I try to explain why I want to re-live those old days, to tear the Truth out of the past so that all men shall see plainly, perhaps someone will say to me, 'Oh, the War! A tragedy - best forgotten.'
‐‐ Henry Williamson

The Beltway is waking up to the realities of Prsident Obam's budget plan, which taxes, spends, and borrows as far as the eye can see.
‐‐ Matthew Continetti
The Beltway media went into caroming-off-the-walls hysterics over Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky, whipping itself into a flaming casserole even as Clinton's standing with the American people remained upright and firm, so to speak.
‐‐ James Wolcott

The benefit of film is that you're shooting something for an intense period of time - and then it's over, and you move on to something else. In TV, you're doing the same thing over and over.
‐‐ Nat Faxon
The benefit of hindsight is we only really talk about those things that did work out.
‐‐ Jonathan Ive

‐‐ Esperanza Spalding
The benefit of this kind of outlining is that you discover a story's flaws before you invest a lot of time writing the first draft, and it's almost impossible to get stuck at a difficult chapter, because you've already done the work to push through those kinds of blocks.
‐‐ George Stephen
The benefits and consequences of globalization have a great deal to do with whether we're intelligent and thoughtful about how we approach globalization, or whether we're blindly accepting... or blindly resistant.
‐‐ Ethan Zuckerman
The benefits cap is right in principle because people don't pay their taxes so that families who could work don't work. People pay their taxes so we support people who really need to be supported.
‐‐ David Cameron
The benefits from a world currency would be enormous.
‐‐ Robert Mundell
The benefits from stardom as Klinger outweigh any setbacks. It's a double-edged sword. What makes you famous is what interferes with getting other roles.

‐‐ Michael Greger

The Berlin Defence suited my strategy for the match. I had a defensive strategy - Actually, I had in my pocket some other sharper stuff to fall back on - but first I wanted to try the defensive strategy with Black and it worked so well.
‐‐ Vladimir Kramnik
The Berlin of the '20s formed the foundation of my future education... the Berlin of the UFA studios, of Fritz Lang, Lubitsch and Erich Pommer. The Berlin of the architects Gropius, Mendelsohn and Mies van der Rohe. The Berlin of the painters Max Libermann, Grosz, Otto Dix, Klee and Kandinsky.
‐‐ Ken Adam
The Berlin Wall fell because the East Germans saw the West had more. The Koreans don't like the Japanese and try to prove to them that they are worth more in the industrial arena.
‐‐ Stef Wertheimer
The Berlin Wall go down, that was the most wonderful thing that could happen, absolutely. I celebrated with everybody in Berlin that day when the Wall was down.
‐‐ Nana Mouskouri
The Berlin Wall wasn't the only barrier to fall after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War. Traditional barriers to the flow of money, trade, people and ideas also fell.
‐‐ Fareed Zakaria
The Bermuda Triangle got tired of warm weather. It moved to Alaska. Now Santa Claus is missing.
‐‐ Steven Wright

‐‐ Alexander Payne
The best actors do not let the wheels show.
‐‐ Milan Kundera
The best actors, I think, have a childlike quality. They have a sort of an ability to lose themselves. There's still some silliness.
‐‐ Kenneth Branagh
The best actors instinctively feel out what the other actors need, and they just accommodate it.
‐‐ Christopher Nolan
The best adaptations are the ones that really excavate the material. The movies that work are the ones in which somebody very smart figured out how to take all the thematic material, all the character material, all the filigree, all the beautiful writing and put it into a story.
‐‐ Scott Rudin
The best advice comes from people who don't give advice.
‐‐ Matthew McConaughey
The best advice he gave me was to carry on. It would have been difficult to set foot back inside a TV studio if I hadn't carried on - I don't know if I would have ever gone back in.
