“Nobody gets to live life backward. Look ahead; that is where your future lies. Opportunities are usually disguised as hard work, so most people don't recognize them. People who care about each other enjoy doing things for one another. There are really only three types of people: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who say, What happened?” PeopleLooksHardHappensCareLyingThreeOpportunityEnjoyWatchesHappenedHard WorkTypeThings HappenLive LifeOur FutureWho CaresYour FutureMake Things Happen Author:Ann Landers
“The work saved me. I clung to it like flotsam in a boiling sea. It was the only solitary sport that I ever played, or was any good at. It felt natural to sit at my computer and type and type some more. For entire minutes, while writing, I could forget the godawful thing that had happened. I could forget that nothing really mattered anymore. Perhaps, if I set my sights low, I could care again about some small thing. I would type a word. One word. Then another. I started to care about the words, then entire sentences.” IfsWritingCareFeltSportsNaturalForgetHappenedSeaMinutesTypeComputerLowsSightSentencesSavedSolitarySmall ThingsOne WordBoilingFlotsam Book:Enchanted Evening Barbie and the Second Coming: A Memoir Source: Enchanted Evening Barbie and the Second Coming: A Memoir

That's what I want.” PeopleWayWantHelpingFatherSocialAudienceHappenedTypeConversationTheaterRelateRelevance Author:Ric Roman Waugh
“Men feel challenged when a woman is in danger, so those types of stories interest women and they interest men on a level that the crimes against men tend to draw a different visceral reaction.

“What happened was, I always wanted to be a singer/songwriter kind of guy like a James Taylor or Crosby, Stills and Nash type of thing; I went to a lot of coffee houses and used to watch all those guys, but I never had the nerve to get up and do it because singing seems so personal and intimate to me.

“Frankly, Django is an American story that needs to be told, when you think of slavery existing in this country for 245 years. In slave narratives there were all types of tales and drama and heroism and pain and love that happened during that time. That's rich material for drama! Everyone complains that there are no new stories left to tell.
