The true worth of a man is not to be found in man himself, but in the colours and textures that come alive in others.
I have seen and heard comedians who had really funny 'stuff' but yet could not make the people laugh; then, again - I have seen others whose stuff was anything but humorous, and the audience would howl with laughter.
I want to see good-quality comedy shows, not the slapstick ones or where people imitate others.
I had my freedom, and I had my comfortable life, but I couldn't accept the fact that the politicians were making it increasingly difficult for my kids and millions of others to achieve their dreams as I had achieved mine. So, in 2012, I ran for president.
I'm an actor, and I don't look at myself as providing comic relief. I have done diverse and dark roles such as a psycho, murderer, and others in films such as 'Don', 'Eklavya' and '3 Idiots.'
In my opinion, Donald Trump lives a life of loving and helping others as Jesus taught in the great commandment. He cannot be bought; he's not a puppet on a string like many other candidates... who have wealthy donors as their puppet masters.
The commandment 'Thou shalt not kill' does not say it's O.K. to kill some people and not others.
The commendable conduct of man is shown by his discriminate treatment of merits and sympathetic regard for pleasure and pain, profit and loss of others. The contrary course is reprehensible.
Humanitarianism is commendable, but not when you're demanding that others share the burdens and expense.
I've long been interested in the tale-within-a-tale phenomenon. I'm familiar with many tales which use this framework or the device of many people in one place, telling their stories, or multiple storytellers commenting on each others' stories with their own.
The priesthood is not really so much a gift as it is a commission to serve, a privilege to lift, and an opportunity to bless the lives of others.
Those who are incapable of committing great crimes do not readily suspect them in others.
Many religious confessions share common values. They teach that we should do unto others as we would have them do unto us.
Probably every person is some mixture of wanting to feel a sense of commonality and shared experience with others but also wanting to feel completely singular and unique.
I would like it to be known that I have decided not to marry Group Capt. Peter Townsend. Mindful of the church's teaching that Christian marriage is indissoluble, and conscious of my duty to the Commonwealth, I have resolved to put these considerations before any others.
The way we communicate with others and with ourselves ultimately determines the quality of our lives.
There is nothing we like to communicate to others as much as the seal of secrecy together with what lies under it.
The instruction we find in books is like fire. We fetch it from our neighbours, kindle it at home, communicate it to others, and it becomes the property of all.
Ideas are cheap. Always be passionate about ideas and communicating those ideas and discoveries to others in the things you make.
There is a healthful hardiness about real dignity that never dreads contact and communion with others however humble.
