Trees go wandering forth in all directions with every wind, going and coming like ourselves, traveling with us around the sun two million miles a day, and through space heaven knows how fast and far!

Corruption is a cancer: a cancer that eats away at a citizen’s faith in democracy, diminishes the instinct for innovation and creativity; already-tight national budgets, crowding out important national investments. It wastes the talent of entire generations. It scares away investments and jobs.

I love to put on lotion. Sometimes I’ll watch TV and go into a lotion trance for an hour. I try to find brands that don’t taste bad in case anyone wants to taste me.

Hollywood has a way of making everything seem like an overnight success.

I’m much more comfortable and confident running out on the field in front of 70,000 people instead of standing in front of a camera trying to say some lines. The people who do that as a profession are very talented because it’s certainly not easy.

The world is mud-luscious and puddle-wonderful.

Beauties in vain their pretty eyes may roll; charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.

Of all that is good, sublimity is supreme. Succeeding is the coming together of all that is beautiful. Furtherance is the agreement of all that is just. Perseverance is the foundation of all actions.

I grew up in a rural area called Vega Baja and I’m the first of so many talented people in this area to make it out. I take great pride to represent where I come from and I am able to show my fans, and everyone who listens and watches me, that anything is possible.

I performed in a bowling alley before while people were still bowling. Cut the check, and I will perform anywhere.

I try not to go around looking like a hag.

I’ve never had that much trouble with the paparazzi, but I don’t run the same circles that a lot of these people that do get hounded by the paparazzi.

I will buy any creme, cosmetic, or elixir from a woman with a European accent.

The nice thing about being a celebrity is that, if you bore people, they think it’s their fault.

Kindness in women, not their beauteous looks, shall win my love.

The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives.

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries or the way she combs her hair.

I like the idea of working in different genres and transcending genres and hopefully finding success, and ultimately make movies people like.

Beauty without expression is boring.

Those who find ugly meanings in beautiful things are corrupt without being charming. This is a fault.

No matter how beautiful a woman might be, you’re always threatened by certain… You’re always threatened by other women, period.

It’s always wonderful to get to know women, with the mystery and the joy and the depth. If you can make a woman laugh, you’re seeing the most beautiful thing on God’s Earth.

Blushing is the color of virtue.

Just because you’ve seen ‚My Cousin Vinny‘ doesn’t qualify you to be a federal judge.

You don’t need to buy expensive cosmetics; almost anything will do if you know how to apply it.

It’s every girl’s dream to be a cover girl!

One of the skills I had to learn and become proficient in is kissing a man. I had never kissed a man. Will Smith did it in his movies, so did Jake Gyllenhaal, and I figured it was my time. So it was me and Steve Carell – fantastic.

Isn’t it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?

It is dangerous for mortal beauty, or terrestrial virtue, to be examined by too strong a light. The torch of Truth shows much that we cannot, and all that we would not, see.

There should be a point to movies. Sure, you’re giving people a diversion from the cold world for a bit, but at the same time, you pass on some facts and rules and maybe a little bit of wisdom.

People with great gifts are easy to find, but symmetrical and balanced ones never.

You just want something else that someone else has, but that doesn’t mean what you have isn’t beautiful, because people always want what you have, and you always want what they have – no one is ever 100 per cent like, ‚Yes, I’m the bomb dot com – from head to toe!‘
