Smallness in a great man seems smaller by its disproportion with all the rest.

There's something fundamentally wrong with a system where there's been 17 years of a Tory Government and the people of Scotland have voted Socialist for 17 years. That hardly seems democratic.

Of the various forms of government which have prevailed in the world an hereditary monarchy seems to present the fairest scope for ridicule.

Certainly it seems true enough that there's a good deal of irony in the world... I mean if you live in a world full of politicians and advertising there's obviously a lot of deception.

Greek philosophy seems to have met with something with which a good tragedy is not supposed to meet namely a dull ending.

It seems to never occur to fools that merit and good fortune are closely united.

It seems to me we can never give up longing and wishing while we are thoroughly alive. There are certain things we feel to be beautiful and good and we must hunger after them.

In view of the fact that God limited the intelligence of man it seems unfair that He did not also limit his stupidity.

God to me it seems is a verb not a noun proper or improper.

The style of God venerated in the church mosque or synagogue seems completely different from the style of the natural universe.

Scientific views end in awe and mystery lost at the edge in uncertainty but they appear to be so deep and so impressive that the theory that it is all arranged as a stage for God to watch man's struggle for good and evil seems inadequate.

I grow daily to honour facts more and more and theory less and less. A fact it seems to me is a great thing a sentence printed if not by God then at least by the Devil.

By reading the scriptures I am so renewed that all nature seems renewed around me and with me. The sky seems to be a pure a cooler blue the trees a deeper green. The whole world is charged with the glory of God and I feel fire and music under my feet.

The most important lesson that I have learned is to trust God in every circumstance. Lots of times we go through different trials and following God's plan seems like it doesn't make any sense at all. God is always in control and he will never leave us.

It seems like the studios are either making giant blockbusters or really super-small indies. And the mid-level films I grew up on like 'Back to the Future' and all those John Hughes movies the studios aren't doing. It's hard to get them on their feet.

The future... seems to me no unified dream but a mince pie long in the baking never quite done.

When you get just a complete sense of blackness or void ahead of you that somehow the future looks an impossible place to be and the direction you are going seems to have no purpose there is this word despair which is a very awful thing to feel.

Even though the future seems far away it is actually beginning right now.

Everything seems fine until you're about 40. Then something is definitely beginning to go wrong. And you look in the mirror with your old habit of thinking 'While I accept that everyone grows old and dies it's a funny thing but I'm an exception to that rule.'

I'm not a movie guy I'm not a TV sitcom guy but whatever seems to fit and is funny is good for me.

I think I have a dark view of the world. I have to make everything funny otherwise it all seems so sad.

Marie Antoinette was funny I'm sure she was just misinterpreted. You know the 'Let them eat cake' line. She seems like she was kind of funny like a Chelsea Handler or Kathy Griffin type.

I can't not find humor in elements of most parts of life but at the same time nothing ever seems perpetually funny to me.

Women's humor seems to be a little more supportive. It's just kind of trying to make the other one laugh through funny voices and kind of talking about other people. I respond to that. I feel less like I'm going to get beat up in a room full of women than I do in a room full of guys.
