Iyanla VanzantCan anyone be a father without beginning to be one? Yes, one who did not begin his existence. What begins to exist begins to be a father - God the Father did not begin at all.

In our case, the word 'father' cannot be truly appropriate, because we must be fathers and sons.

Shams TabriziFear begins and ends with the desire to be secure; inward and outward security, with the desire to be certain, to have permanency. The continuity of permanence is sought in every direction, in virtue, in relationship, in action, in experience, in knowledge, in outward and inward things.

As someone standing up there alone, facing these people, I can feel that rapport (or its absence).

Thomas PaineMotion pictures are just beginning to live up to their true potential of being immersive experience - going from beyond black and white flickering images to fully immersive 3D color high-definition. You don't even know where the real world starts and the fake world begins.

Pixar is able to do this in ways that almost defies speculation.
Tom HanksAs Sokrates tells it, your story begins the moment Eros enters you. That incursion is the biggest risk of your life.

You perceive what you are, what you lack, what you could be.
