Pastoral Resources

I love nerds. Comic-Con junkies are the tastemakers of tomorrow. Isn't that funny? The tables have turned.

I rarely wear clothes when I'm home by myself. I love making breakfast naked. But you've got to make sure the gardener's not coming that day.

I have friends who wear Star Wars costumes and act like the characters all day. I may not be that deep into it, but there's something great about loving what you love and not caring if it's unpopular.

From quiet homes and first beginning, out to the undiscovered ends, there's nothing worth the wear of winning, but laughter and the love of friends.

I'm tired of love; I'm still more tired of rhyme; but money gives me pleasure all the time.

In expressing love we belong among the undeveloped countries.

Goodness is achieved not in a vacuum, but in the company of other men, attended by love.

After a while in marriage, it doesn't work anymore. There is something missing, there is something wrong. There are few marriages that stay alive forever. We like something, and after a while, we hate what we used to love.

When a relationship doesn't work anymore, it's terrible to stay with someone that you don't love.

We all need illusions. That's why we love movies.

You shouldn't have to pay for your love with your bones and your flesh.

Love and pain become one in the same in the eyes of a wounded child.

Writing is sweat and drudgery most of the time. And you have to love it in order to endure the solitude and the discipline.

Peace, if it ever exists, will not be based on the fear of war but on the love of peace.

I love meeting fans. The people who are fans of my books are really smart and dedicated, because some independent comics are hard to get. I will drive all the way to Pittsburgh or Detroit to put it in their hands.

I have fallen in love with American names, the sharp names that never get fat.

Right now, I love the fact that I have so many opportunities, but I know this privileged position cannot last. That doesn't mean that I'll stop working. I picture myself as an old actress doing cameos in films with people saying: 'Isn't that that Bening woman?"

I knew I wanted children in my life. The acting was always in relation to it. Life at home is chaos. They're wonderful. They're such interesting human beings. I just love it. I'm lucky.

And if there's anything movies can do in a way that I just love, and I love as an audience is, 'Show me something I don't know about. Show me something I haven't seen."

The only way of knowing a person is to love them without hope.
