men thinking wrinkles
What I have always loved most in men is imperfection. I get moved by the wrinkles on the throat of a man. It makes me love him more. I think it is sad that more women don't take the chance that maybe men will be moved by seeing the chin a little less firm than it used to be, that a man will be more in love with his wife because he remembers who she was and sees who she is and thinks, God, isn't that lovely that this happened to her. And be moved by life telling its story there.
lonely thinking people
I just think that sometimes it is less hard to wake up feeling lonely when you are alone than to wake up feeling lonely when you are with someone else. Some people would be better off alone, but they feel they've got to get hold of someone to prove they're worthwhile.
thinking who-i-am choices
I think of all the choices I never knew. And those I let be made for me - to please, from fear, for love. Where did they disappear to, those choices that I never made? They are all part of who I am. They are the legacy I leave behind, they are the finished portrait of myself I cannot change.
saw
Only when he saw this face, and this actress, could he make the movie.
gets people whom work
The older one gets in this profession, the more people there are with whom one would never work again.
good people somebody talk vulnerable
We all need somebody to talk to. It would be good if we talked... not just pitter-patter, but real talk. We shouldn't be so afraid, because most people really like this contact; that you show you are vulnerable makes them free to be vulnerable.
almost goes himself isolated peek people reads table
He doesn't want to see people anymore. I know he has isolated himself almost completely. He reads a lot and goes to his writing table every day. For a while I thought he was writing a new film, but I don't think so now. I'll have to take a little peek when I go out there.
beautiful summer book
The Summer Book is beautiful and warm, with the kind of wisdom we can adapt to our everyday lives.
spirit birth ibsen
Ibsen was Norwegian by birth, but universal in spirit.
book answers littles
Books have always been living things to me. Some of my encounters with new authors have changed my life a little. When I have been perplexed, looking for something I could not define to myself, a certain book has turned up, approached me as a friend would. And between it's cover carried the questions and the answers I was looking for.
baby grandma grandmother
Soon I will be an old, white-haired lady, into whose lap someone places a baby, saying, "Smile, Grandma!" - I, who myself so recently was photographed on my grandmother's lap.
compassion rights justice
Since suffering confers no rights on its victims, we who witness are the ones responsible for restoring these lost rights.
void papa kind
The void Papa's death left in me became a kind of cavity, into which later experiences were to be laid.
lonely loneliness believe
I believe that it is sometimes less difficult to wake up and feel that I am alone when I really am, than to wake up with someone else and be lonely.
