I wonder if Communists occupied in producing plays are not safer than Communists starving to death. I have always felt that whatever your beliefs might be, if you could earn enough to keep body and soul together and had to be pretty busy doing that, you would not be very apt to have time to plot the overthrow of any existing government.

Character building begins in our infancy and continues until death.

I have never felt that anything really mattered but knowing that you stood for the things in which you believed and had done the very best you could.

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

A mature person is one who does not think only in absolutes, who is able to be objective even when deeply stirred emotionally, who has learned that there is both good and bad in all people and in all things, and who walks humbly and deals charitably with the circumstances of life, knowing that in this world no one is all knowing and therefore all of us need both love and charity.

There is nothing to fear except fear it's self.

You can't move so fast that you try to change the mores faster than people can accept it.
