When I finally got up to Industrial Light And Magic to work on the 'Star Wars' movies as a model-maker it felt like dying and going to heaven.

Your enjoyment of the world is never right till every morning you awake in Heaven: see yourself in your Father's palace and look upon the skies the earth and the air as celestial joys: having such a reverend esteem of all as if you were among the angels.

Driving a motorcycle is like flying. All your senses are alive. When I ride through Beverly Hills in the early morning and all the sprinklers have turned off the scents that wash over me are just heavenly. Being House is like flying too. You're free of the gravity of what people think.

Having a child makes you realize the importance of life - narcissism goes out the window. Heaven on earth is looking at my little boy. The minute he was born I knew if I never did anything other than being a mom I'd be fine.

Marriage is the mother of the world. It preserves kingdoms and fills cities and churches and heaven itself.

That a marriage ends is less than ideal but all things end under heaven and if temporality is held to be invalidating then nothing real succeeds.

Marriage is distinctly and repeatedly excluded from heaven. Is this because it is thought likely to mar the general felicity?

Marriages are made in heaven and consummated on Earth.

Marriage may be the closest thing to Heaven or Hell any of us will know on this earth.

Marriage is neither heaven nor hell it is simply purgatory.

The love of a mother is the veil of a softer light between the heart and the heavenly Father.

Love seeketh not itself to please nor for itself hath any care but for another gives its ease and builds a Heaven in Hell's despair.

Love him and let him love you. Do you think anything else under heaven really matters?

I'm not saying that love always takes you to heaven. Your life can become a nightmare. But that said it is worth taking the risk.

The love of heaven makes one heavenly.

But let there be spaces in your togetherness and let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another but make not a bond of love: let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.

I don't believe in an afterlife so I don't have to spend my whole life fearing hell or fearing heaven even more. For whatever the tortures of hell I think the boredom of heaven would be even worse.

The true object of all human life is play. Earth is a task garden heaven is a playground.

Knowledge of the sciences is so much smoke apart from the heavenly science of Christ.

I can't tell you if genius is hereditary because heaven has granted me no offspring.

The intellect of the wise is like glass it admits the light of heaven and reflects it.

Tears are often the telescope by which men see far into heaven.

Every charitable act is a stepping stone toward heaven.

Heaven knows I've exposed myself in my novels through the use of fantasy and imagination... now my new book is about what really happened to me... not my heroines.
