Fortune favors the prepared mind.
Fears are nothing more than a state of mind.
I'm of a fearsome mind to throw my arms around every living librarian who crosses my path, on behalf of the souls they never knew they saved.
When I sing, I close my eyes. If I see a feather, everything is fine. Without this image in my mind, the sound is not 'truthful' enough, and I must begin again. I have to.
They said they wanted a lot of feathers, glitter, colourful colours. A costume. So I had a lady here in Calgary make it. She just kind of put together what I had in mind.
The heart is the chief feature of a functioning mind.
I'm a tennis fan, so I like Roger Federer. He's always two or three steps ahead, so he's hitting a shot, but he's also thinking about the next two shots. So I try to be in that frame of mind - to always be ahead.
A feeble body weakens the mind.
It is a rare privilege to watch the birth, growth, and first feeble struggles of a living mind; this privilege is mine.
Feeding our energy appetite is top of mind for many people these days.
Self-care is really about taking care of you and focusing on feeling good about yourself - mind and body.
A man's felicity consists not in the outward and visible blessing of fortune, but in the inward and unseen perfections and riches of the mind.
When I'm on stage, it's really intense. My mind is going a million miles an hour, trying to remember my act, trying to say it all the right way. It's funny how different it looks and how it's happening. There are three Fellini circuses in my head, and outwardly it looks like I'm going to get a bagel.
I'm an irredeemable urbanite. I can't imagine living more than a five-minute walk from my fellow human beings. Other people are vital to my peace of mind.
In my mind, every single female character I've written is plus-size.
Even while I'm really interested in playing female characters that are varied and interesting and dynamic, I'm not of the mind that you always want to play strong female characters. I think I just want to play characters that are interesting, and not all people are 'strong.'
There is no female mind. The brain is not an organ of sex. As well speak of a female liver.
I think there's something very lovely and hilarious about exploring the particular neuroses of the female mind. It's just not the same thing with men. I mean, there are exceptions, but for the most part, women beat themselves up in their heads more. They overanalyze stuff far more than men do.
Let there be no mistake. A gay man alone could never begin to replicate the inner workings of the female mind.
Fencing is a game of living chess, a match where reflexes only work in combination with intent, and mind and body must work together at every moment.
