heart men world
The more men see of the world, the bigger their hearts
eye heart looks
It all depends on you. If you want it to be different,it will be different. Don't look at the world with your eyes but with your heart.
character heart stories
Once we got over the origin story, we could really delve deeper into their lives and characters and angst. So this movie actually has more heart, more humor.
course emotion fact full heart love reviews
I love the reviews and I love the fact that this movie is so full of heart and emotion - big action, of course - but it's all about the heart.
along certainly five knows minutes name older reasons twin york
I was born in New York City, along with a twin sister. I am five minutes older than Emily. It was Emily, for reasons no one knows - she certainly doesn't - who called me Avi. It stuck. It's the only name I use now.
mind
My mind has become somewhat like a book. What I mean by that is that when I look at the world, I see it as a story.
answers listen others satisfied watch
Listen and watch the world around you. Don't be satisfied with answers others give you.
patience takes time took worked year
Writing takes a lot of patience. It usually takes me a year to write a book. One time, it took me 14 years to write a book, not that I worked on it every day.
became five four writers
Writers don't write writing, they write reading. When I was a kid, I read four or five books a week. And that is how I became a writer.
hurt mean causes
I took a deep breath. 'For you I've got something better than love.' What's that?' I...trust you.' Why?' You'll never hurt me.' Thank you.' But...' But, what?' I said, 'That means I'll hurt you.' Why?' 'Cause, like I said, you'll never hurt me back.
wish limits seers
There is a limit to how much a seer wishes to see.
thinking soul mercy
All I can think is that when you torment a person...the soul dies. When the soul dies, I suppose mercy dies, too.
reading writing heaven
For heaven's sake, don't write writing. Write reading!
writing voice might
Let's agree then . . . if you're about to come to a conclusion, you'll head off in another direction. You might even find your own voice.
