"Faithfulness to one's word is one of the principles of discipline."
"It is only the man that delays his gratification that is a man indeed."
"Katy was neither a Methodist nor a Masochist. She was a goddess and the silence of goddesses is genuinely golden. None of your superficial plating. A solid, twenty-two-carat silence all the way through. The Olympian's trap is kept shut, not by an act of willed discretion, but because there's really nothing to say. Goddesses are all of one piece. There's no internal conflict in them. Whereas the lives of people like you and me are one long argument. Desires on one side, woodpeckers on the other. Never a moment of real silence."
"Principles are meant to serve people, not people serving to uphold the principle, while harming the people."

"I knew at an early age I wanted to act. Acting was always easy for me. I don't believe in predestination, but I do believe that once you get where ever it is you are going, that is where you were going to be."
"I don't get off on romantic parts. But I often think if I had had my dental work done early on, well, maybe."
