Compassion is sometimes the fatal capacity for feeling what it is like to live inside somebody else's skin. It is the knowledge that there can never really be any peace and joy for me until there is peace and joy finally for you too.

This life that has been given to us as a gift as such a precious gift. To really try to understand it really try to recognize it is the greatest meditation. Through the media of this Knowledge we can tap into our inner sources that are so beautiful.

So you know I think that Democrats are being more successful in Congress and I'm really going to be proud of the role I will play tomorrow as ranking Democrat on the Intelligence Committee when this bill passes.

The beautiful thing about my intelligence is that it doesn't really come in one specific department. So even if something hasn't happened to me I have information on how to get you through whatever you may be going through.

Rehearsals and this band are two words that don't really go together kinda like Military Intelligence.

I feel as though my career really hit its high point when I was cast as a supporting actress in 'American Wedding'. I thought the script had a lot of depth and intelligence and it really just jumped off the page.

I refuse to be molded into some stereotypical ballplayer that has no interests really no life no depth no intelligence.

These are Canadian and United States intelligence and law enforcement offices who are working in teams and who are using good intelligence and good law enforcement to really stop the criminals and terrorists before they ever get to the border.

Bill Gates wants people to think he's Edison when he's really Rockefeller. Referring to Gates as the smartest man in America isn't right... wealth isn't the same thing as intelligence.

I won't insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said.

Intelligence is really a kind of taste: taste in ideas.

I'm an optimist in the sense that I believe humans are noble and honorable and some of them are really smart. I have a very optimistic view of individuals.

I've done a lot of albums and I kinda know when I'm onto something that was inspirational for me to record and create and this was one of those projects where I really enjoyed making the album.

Every song you're trying to find something that going to connect in different ways but for me the songs that I'm really drawn to are inspirational songs that lift you and that everybody can relate to no matter where you're from.

In fact I wouldn't really call this a Gospel album I call it more an inspirational album.

Learning how to be still to really be still and let life happen - that stillness becomes a radiance.

I believe there's an inner power that makes winners or losers. And the winners are the ones who really listen to the truth of their hearts.

Heaven knows I've exposed myself in my novels through the use of fantasy and imagination... now my new book is about what really happened to me... not my heroines.

I think we're all a little afraid of the dark. If you lived in the country as I did there's nothing quite like country dark which was really black. And as a child your imagination runs wild.

I certainly know there are people in positions of power in the business who lack imagination and perhaps as a result of that think of me as 'David'. But I wouldn't really want to work with those people you know?

Grandchildren have taught me how important the future is. I try to look through their eyes and envision what's in their imagination. What's the world going to look like when they're my age? That really does take a huge imagination.

We didn't have television until I was about eight years old so it was either the movies or radio. A lot of radio drama. That was our television you know. We had to use our imagination. So it was really those two things and the comics that I immersed myself in as a child.

I definitely gravitate towards quality genre projects and genre of any kind whether it's science fiction horror or really anything. I'm just drawn to quality. I don't think 'Darkness Falls' is horror there isn't any gore by any stretch of the imagination.

It's just a way of trying to get to a third thing that's not particular to any quote-unquote genre. It's been great for me it's really opened me up and gotten me to use that part of my imagination. It's very scary in a lot of ways and just as exciting.
