Famous Quotes & Sayings

Ben Mendelsohn

As soon as you start acting in an accent, you're sort of out of your comfort zone. Maybe people start getting used to accents after a long period of time.

Ayn Rand

Your emotional capacity is an empty motor, and your values are the fuel with which your mind fills it. If you choose a mix of contradictions, it will clog your motor, corrode your transmission and wreck you on your first attempt to move with a machine which you, the driver, have corrupted.

Ayn Rand

Auguste Rodin

As paradoxical as it may seem a great sculptor is as much a colourist as the best painter, or rather the best engraver.
