All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players.
They have their exits and entrances, and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages.
At first, the infant, mewling and puking in the nurse’s arms.
Then, the...

I’ve heard many good things about the film Whiplash, but I’ve only recently gotten the chance to see it. And it’s safe to say that it’s one of the greats, definitely will be considered a classic must-watch in cinema history in the years to come....

Writing, at its best, is a lonely life.
Organizations for writers palliate the writer’s loneliness but I doubt if they improve his writing.
He grows in public stature as he sheds his loneliness and often his work deteriorates.
For he does not...

Life is a game with a glorious prize, if we can only play it right.
It is give and take, and often ends in a fight.
But he surely wins who honestly tries, regardless of wealth and fame.
He can never despair who plays it fair.
How are you playing...

“Kindness” covers all of my political beliefs, no need to spell them out.
I believe that if, at the end, according to our abilities, we have done something to make others a little happier, and something to make ourselves a little happier…

‘Hope’ is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops – at all
And sweetest in the Gale, is heard
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm...

No man is an island, entire of itself.
Every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea…
Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend’s or of thine own...

I would rather that my spark would burn out in a brilliant blaze, than it should be stifled by dry-rot.
I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent...

People ask me “What’s the use of climbing Mount Everest?”
And my answer must at once be, “It is of no use, there is not the slightest prospect of any gain whatsoever.”
Oh, we may learn a little about the behaviour of the human body at high...

We know very well that errors are better recognized in the works of others than in our own,
And that often, while reproving little faults in others, you may ignore great ones in yourself.
A very good plan every now and then is to go away and have...

If you can keep your head all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, but make allowance for their doubting too.
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, or being lied about, don’t...

Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart.
Try to love the questions themselves.
Like locked rooms, or books written in a foreign language
Do no now look for the answers, they cannot now be given to you
Because you would...
