Famous Quotes & Sayings

Zachary Quinto

We did monologues and scenes, and New York I did a scene from Amadeus and a monologue from Pounding Nails in the Floor With My Forehead by Eric Bogosian, and then in L.A. I switched the scene to This is Our Youth and did the same monologue. I was spiky-haired, super skinny. A lot of people were like, "You should come here and do a sitcom." That was the feedback that I got. Obviously it was quite a different journey than the one I've actually had, but I just listened to people.

We can also experience, safely, at no cost, the terrible thrill of radical self-invention, of trading who we are for who we might be.

Voltaire

A sea captain when he stands upon the bridge, or looks out from his deck-house, thinks much about God and about the world.

William Butler Yeats

Life is a journey up a spiral staircase; as we grow older we cover the ground covered we have covered before, only higher up; as we look down the winding stair below us we measure our progress by the number of places where we were but no longer are.
