I like being in movies that have a great story. I'm not so interested in being a Hollywood star. It's a job you know. When you wake up at six in the morning every day for a week it feels like hard work.
I never knew a man come to greatness or eminence who lay abed late in the morning.
Every year August lashes out in volcanic fury rising with the din of morning traffic its great metallic wings smashing against the ground heating the air with ever-increasing intensity.
If some great catastrophe is not announced every morning we feel a certain void. Nothing in the paper today we sigh.
A good idea will keep you awake during the morning but a great idea will keep you awake during the night.
Kids are meant to believe that their stepping stone to massive money is 'The X Factor.' Luck is great but most of life is hard work. We do not celebrate people who have made success out of serious hard work.
But it's a blessing to be so successful within a year it's the greatest feeling in the world making money and doing the things that I'm doing and I definitely trying to continue doing what I'm doing.
The inequalities are greater now than in '92. Some states have equalized per-pupil spending but they set the 'equal level' very low so that wealthy districts simply raise extra money privately.
There is a great difference between Christianity and religion at the south. If a man goes to the communion table and pays money into the treasury of the church no matter if it be the price of blood he is called religious.
Wouldn't it be great if you could only get AIDS by giving money to television preachers?
For me the greatest source of income is still movies. Nothing - stocks financial speculation real estate speculation or businesses - makes more money for me than making movies.
Preoccupation with money is the great test of small natures but only a small test of great ones.
I wanted to make a living but I really was not interested in money at all. I was interested in being a great comedian.
The only way not to think about money is to have a great deal of it.
While money doesn't buy love it puts you in a great bargaining position.
People assume I'm out there having this great life but money doesn't erase the pain. When you're young you barrel through life making choices without thinking of repercussions. A few years down the line you wake up in a certain place and wonder how the hell you got there.
I am not a pig farmer. The pigs had a great time but I didn't make any money.
New York City is a great monument to the power of money and greed... a race for rent.
Our greatest lack is not money for any undertaking but rather ideas If the ideas are good cash will somehow flow to where it is needed.
Want of money and the distress of a thief can never be alleged as the cause of his thieving for many honest people endure greater hardships with fortitude. We must therefore seek the cause elsewhere than in want of money for that is the miser's passion not the thief s.
You are your greatest asset. Put your time effort and money into training grooming and encouraging your greatest asset.
One might think that the money value of an invention constitutes its reward to the man who loves his work. But... I continue to find my greatest pleasure and so my reward in the work that precedes what the world calls success.
Because of my unique experience as my mom's child the beginning of my journey was more about me trying to figure out who I was on my own. My mom is one of the greatest moms and so supportive of all my siblings and of all of us being who we are and not who she wanted us to be.
I had really great parents who always gave me lots of opportunity for choice but I didn't always realize how rare that was for a girl for them to say 'You can be a mom or have a career or do both or do something we haven't thought of yet.'
Wit is so shining a quality that everybody admires it most people aim at it all people fear it and few love it unless in themselves. A man must have a good share of wit himself to endure a great share of it in another.
