“I wouldn't say when you've seen one Western you've seen the lot; but when you've seen the lot you get the feeling you've seen one.”

“Sometimes if you go to see a very, very, happy movie, a Hollywood movie, you can walk out of the movie and feel very depressed because it's so false. And other times you see a very depressing movie and it makes you feel good, happy because you've seen something real. You've seen something that talks to you and says that your bad feelings are legitimate. And then you can go further with that and say, "Well, this bad feeling is good, and this good feeling is bad, but is it good to feel bad and is it bad to feel good?" I'm concerned with feelings. And sometimes when I feel good, I'll write something very negative because I have the strength to do it. But when I really, really feel very bad, what I want to do is make myself feel better, so I'll write something happier.”

John S. Hall (1960) Poet, author, singer, lawyer

“If you have to ask, you've never been in love. More than that, you've never had your feelings hurt by the one you want to trust and cherish you most of all.”

“When I went to shoot the film I was very nervous. I kept telling myself, "This is it. This is what you've wanted, this is the real deal. Now you've gotta do your thing. You've gotta put all of you in this and hopefully they'll like you." And for people to say it's impressive and "You're so natural", I mean, it's the best feeling in the world. I feel like hard work, you know, payed off.”

Aaliyah (1979–2001) American singer, actress and model

“You've got to try everything once, except those things you don't like, or that involve a lot of effort and getting up early.”

Tibor Fischer book The Thought Gang

“Well I know that you worry a lot about
Things you cant control
There are so many things wed like to have
But we just cannot hold, You've got to be kind to yourself
You've got to be kind to yourself”

Zooey Deschanel (1980) American actress, musician, and singer-songwriter
