I fight cynicism. It's too easy. It's really boring. It's much harder to be positive and see the wonder of everything.

—Ewan McGregor
(Long Way Round)

Never regret anything you have done with a sincere affection; nothing is lost that is born of the heart.

—Basil Rathbone

She looked like a very special kind of dynamite, neatly wrapped in nylon and silk.

—Robert Young/Larry Ballentine 
(They Won’t Believe Me)

Its unfortunate, and I really wish I wouldn't have to say this, but I really like human beings who have suffered. They're kinder.

—Emma Thompson/Elinor Dash
(Sense & Sensibility)

She celebrates humanity and shows the feminine beauty, power and strength that emerges when women are safe and free to be themselves.

To be acknowledged for who and what I am, no more, no less. Not for acclaim, not for approval, but, the simple truth of that recognition. This has been the elemental drive of my existence, and it must be achieved, if I am to live or die with dignity.

Andrew Martin/Robin Williams
(Bicentennial Man)

Shake off all the fears of servile prejudices, under which weak minds are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear.

—Thomas Jefferson to Peter Carr,
(1787. ME 6:258 Papers 12:15y)

No one looks stupid when they're having fun.

—Amy Poehler
