I can never close my lips where I have opened my heart

Happiness is a gift and the trick is not to expect it, but to delight in it when it comes.

A loving heart is the truest wisdom.

A man is lucky if he is the first love of a woman. A woman is lucky if she is the last love of a man.

The most important thing in life is to stop saying 'I wish' and start saying 'I will.' Consider nothing impossible, then treat possibilities as probabilities.

Have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires, and a touch that never hurts.

No one is useless in this world who lightens the burden of it to anyone else.

Do all the good you can and make as little fuss about it as possible.

A very little key will open a very heavy door.

The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: that a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists.

Reflect upon your present blessings of which every man has many - not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some.

It is a bad thing to have love and nowhere to put it.

Prayer is like pearls.

Our body is the vehicle that we are given for our journey and if we do not take care of it, we will find ourselves broken down on the side of the road facing costly and time-consuming repairs.

I'm a big believer of "when there is a will there is a way" but from the studio's perspective I think it just seems like a bigger leap than you can get a sort of bureaucratic move to make.

For me, I love auditioning.

Safety razors make it hard to grow beards in America: America would be a better place if there were a few bearded, savage, terrible old men.

Trust me, when they read the [Oscar] results, my face was...frozen. But then I thought about it, and I just decided just to...let it go.

Wherever I went, I was on the wrong end of the stampede.

There's nobody better to tell you who's a man and who isn't than a woman. Women will spot manliness, or lack of it, faster than any man will. If you really want to know... It's just the way it is.
