Anyone who attempts to generate random numbers by deterministic means is of course living in a state of sin.

We seem to have a compulsion these days to bury time capsules in order to give those people living in the next century or so some idea of what we are like.

You see so many artists who are so talented end up living sad empty lives. This industry takes so much out of you that without the accountability and leaving God in the center you can be left so empty and void.

There are a lot of people who consider themselves 'spiritual ' but that can mean a lot of things to a lot of people. I don't really talk about it that often because there's too much talk in the world. Especially with Christians there's more proselytizing than there is actual living proof of it. That's kind of sad.

I often feel like I have this spirit living inside of me always dressing in like short mini skirts... but then I start to discover myself. So there are eight spirits mischievous ones sad ones handsome ones wise ones and crazy ones.

Dying is only one thing to be sad over... Living unhappily is something else.

No actually 'The Host' was totally a palate-cleanser for me. I wanted to do something a little bit different than romantic love. Romantic love is in there obviously because I enjoy writing about that and living it a lot.

I think that the romantic impulse is in all of us and that sometimes we live it for a short time but it's not part of a sensible way of living. It's a heroic path and it generally ends dangerously.

My parents started a business out of the living room of our home and 30-plus years later it was a multimillion dollar company. So President Obama with all due respect don't tell me that my parents didn't build their business.

It's a paradox to be an actress living in the city taking planes all the time trying to find the right balance in this life which is not so eco-friendly and still try to respect the environment.

We may not always agree with every one of our neighbors. That's life. And it's part of living in such a diverse and dense city. But we also recognize that part of being a New Yorker is living with your neighbors in mutual respect and tolerance. It was exactly that spirit of openness and acceptance that was attacked on 9/11 2001.

We must not permit our respect for the dead or our sympathy for the living to lead us into an act of injustice to the balance of the living.

To the living we owe respect but to the dead we owe only the truth.

And what is religion you might ask. It's a technology of living.

In the early days I had a very black-and-white view of everything. I think that's kind of natural for anyone who's just embraced Islam - or any religion - as a convert. It was important for me to duck out of the fast and furious life I'd been living as a pop star. I was in a different mood.

True religion is real living living with all one's soul with all one's goodness and righteousness.

Royalties are not how most writers or musicians make their living. Musicians by and large make a living with a relationship with an audience that is economically harnessed through performance and ticket sales.

As I grew up I was continually to suffer hardships in different realms of life - in my family in my relationship to Japanese society and in my way of living at large in the latter half of the twentieth century.

For me living in the closet corroded my ability to have an honest open relationship with my God my loved ones my constituency and myself.

A lot of married people certainly have wonderful relationships with their dogs but when you're single and your dog is the only other living thing in your house it's a really special relationship which I wanted CATHY to have.

Doctrinal rightness and rightness of ecclesiastical position are important but only as a starting point to go on into a living relationship - and not as ends in themselves.

Film music should have the same relationship to the film drama that somebody's piano playing in my living room has on the book I am reading.

You don't repair that relationship by sitting down and talking about trust or making promises. Actually what rebuilds it is living it and doing things differently - and I think that is what is going to make the difference.

The only real security is not in owning or possessing not in demanding or expecting not in hoping even. Security in a relationship lies neither in looking back to what it was nor forward to what it might be but living in the present and accepting it as it is now.
