Success in its highest and noblest form calls for peace of mind and enjoyment and happiness which come only to the man who has found the work that he likes best.

What we have found in this country and maybe we're more aware of it now is one problem that we've had even in the best of times and that is the people who are sleeping on the grates the homeless you might say by choice.

If liberty and equality as is thought by some are chiefly to be found in democracy they will be best attained when all persons alike share in government to the utmost.

I have found the best way to give advice to your children is to find out what they want and then advise them to do it.

But my most favourite pursuit after my daily exertions at the Foundry was Astronomy. There were frequently clear nights when the glorious objects in the Heavens were seen in most attractive beauty and brilliancy.

Surely these women won't lose any more of their beauty and charm by putting a ballot in a ballot box once a year than they are likely to lose standing in foundries or laundries all year round. There is no harder contest than the contest for bread let me tell you that.

When I speak of the beauty of a game of chess then naturally this is subjective. Beauty can be found in a very technical mathematical game for example. That is the beauty of clarity.

Every man who has shown the world the way to beauty to true culture has been a rebel a 'universal' without patriotism without home who has found his people everywhere.

But every great scripture whether Hebrew Indian Persian or Chinese apart from its religious value will be found to have some rare and special beauty of its own and in this respect the original Bible stands very high as a monument of sublime poetry and of artistic prose.

I slept and dreamt that life was beauty I woke and found that life was duty.

The ideal beauty is a fugitive which is never found.

Even in the centuries which appear to us to be the most monstrous and foolish the immortal appetite for beauty has always found satisfaction.

Of life's two chief prizes beauty and truth I found the first in a loving heart and the second in a laborer's hand.

Look everything that you experience as a kid is the foundation of how you are today. I was brought up in a working class family in Leeds and when it comes to money both my parents worked hard and instilled the same attitude into me.

As I wrote I found that Aibileen had some things to say that really weren't in her character. She was older soft-spoken and she started showing some attitude.

But I think bands that rolled in with a big attitude like they were some big deal I just found that very strange.

Right after 'Raymond' I had a world-is-my-oyster attitude but I found out I don't like oysters. I had this existential emptiness. 'What is my purpose? Who am I?' I had a big identity crisis.

Seek out that particular mental attribute which makes you feel most deeply and vitally alive along with which comes the inner voice which says 'This is the real me ' and when you have found that attitude follow it.

That attitude that fighting is probably not fair but you have to defend yourself anyway and damage the enemy has been profoundly consequential as far as my political activism goes.

One of the main reasons I am so drawn to Hitchcock is that he planned his shots way in advance on story-boards which he designed like classic paintings (he was an art connoisseur). It's why he found shooting on set boring - because he had already composed the film in his head.

Does art have a future? Performance genres like opera theater music and dance are thriving all over the world but the visual arts have been in slow decline for nearly 40 years. No major figure of profound influence has emerged in painting or sculpture since the waning of Pop Art and the birth of Minimalism in the early 1970s.

The commonality between science and art is in trying to see profoundly - to develop strategies of seeing and showing.

It is not in life but in art that self-fulfillment is to be found.

To me photography is an art of observation. It's about finding something interesting in an ordinary place... I've found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.
