So we mustn't lower our guard in any sense because of what has happened in terms of the death of Osama Bin Laden and we are certainly not doing that. The terror threat level here in the U.K. remains at severe and we're very conscious of the need to continue that.

For those who live neither with religious consolations about death nor with a sense of death (or of anything else) as natural death is the obscene mystery the ultimate affront the thing that cannot be controlled. It can only be denied.

Justifying conscription to promote the cause of liberty is one of the most bizarre notions ever conceived by man! Forced servitude with the risk of death and serious injury as a price to live free makes no sense.

Death is a release from the impressions of the senses and from desires that make us their puppets and from the vagaries of the mind and from the hard service of the flesh.

My sensei was a British karate champion named Brian Fitkin. He was my mentor and because I had a hard relationship with my dad he became a father figure to me.

I have a weird sense of humour. My dad's the same. We love watching 'Monty Python' together.

My dad is kind of a rascal like in a Dickensian sense. He just goes from career to career.

My dad's sense of humor was direct and sometimes surreal - his quick wit is well known amongst our family and friends. He raised me on Spike Jones records and W.C. Fields movies and his sense of humor fell somewhere in between.

A large part of my life revolves around my dad. Sometimes I even feel a strong sense of connection something very tangible when I learn something new in the martial arts.

My dad has been a big influence on me because he's always had his own business. He really taught me business sense and how to be a focused individual but also how to have fun and make everyone around you have fun.

I think in my case I had no choice but to have a good sense of humor. I grew up with my dad Danny Thomas and George Burns and Bob Hope and Milton Berle and Sid Caesar and all those guys were at our house all the time and telling jokes and making each other laugh.

My dad has sometimes felt that I grew up a little lacking in sufficient eccentricity - in the sense that I'm willing to live as an adult in a house with walls that are parallel to each other that sort of thing.

I didn't know my Dad - he moved out early. And my mom's politics were kind of hardscrabble. She didn't think about Democrats or Republicans. She thought about who made sense. I've been both in my life.

My father came from a very poor background but I was very fortunate in the sense that we were never in need. My dad was determined to make sure that we didn't want for things. He wanted to give us more opportunity than he had a better shot at a better life.

I like to think my dad was easygoing and kind and I think some of those things have been passed down. I am like him in a sense of being positive and hopeful. He was compassionate and I've got a lot of that in me as well.

There's no mystique to acting. It's only common sense - and a bit of courage.

But after this natural burst of indignation no man of sense courage or prudence will waste his time or his strength in retrospective reproaches or repinings.

The qualities of an exceptional cook are akin to those of a successful tightrope walker: an abiding passion for the task courage to go out on a limb and an impeccable sense of balance.

Most of man's problems upon this planet in the long history of the race have been met and solved either partially or as a whole by experiment based on common sense and carried out with courage.

These rules may seem simple enough but it will require great morale and physical courage to adhere to them. But if carried out in the strict sense of the word it will surely lead to a greater success than could otherwise be attained.

I think that the romantic impulse is in all of us and that sometimes we live it for a short time but it's not part of a sensible way of living. It's a heroic path and it generally ends dangerously. I treasure it in the sense that I believe it's a path of great courage. It can also be the path of the foolhardy and the compulsive.

Lying at the root of the social agreements of 1980 are the courage sense of responsibility and the solidarity of the working people. Both sides have then recognized that an accord must be reached if bloodshed is to be prevented.

Rather like Batman I embody the themes of the movie which are the values of family courage and compassion and a sense of right and wrong good and bad and justice.

Courage that grows from constitution often forsakes a man when he has occasion for it courage which arises from a sense of duty acts in a uniform manner.
