I think basically becoming famous has taken the place of going to Heaven in modern society hasn't it? That's the place where your dreams will come true. It's an act of faith now they think that's going to sort things out.

You see people who have been very heavy in their life who have taken that body trimmed it down firmed it up through discipline exercise and being able to say no. Eating properly that all comes into it.

Design has taken the place of what sailing used to be.

I'm really not for famous people who design a line for a company when you know it's not really them creating it but a team of designers especially when there are so many talented people who've taken the time to go and study fashion.

I do love DVD and I've always taken them seriously. You know on the Austin things we really put a ton of work into them because there's so much design involved. And in this one we thought a lot about it and what could go in.

I approve designs not because I think I am more gifted or somebody who can see ahead three or four years from now but just to make sure that the design is a logical rational decision taken after analyzing pros and cons.

To be clear climate change is a true 800 pound gorilla in the room. The effects of global warming threaten global environmental upheaval over the coming century. But for South Florida and the Everglades it could be our death knell if urgent action is not taken.

My death will be caused by morphine which I have deliberately taken with suicidal intent.

We weep over the graves of infants and the little ones taken from us by death but an early grave may be the shortest way to heaven.

It is long since I could have adventured on eternity through God's mercy and Christ's merits but death remained somewhat terrible and that now is taken away and now death is no more to me but to cast myself into my husband's arms and to lie down with Him.

When applied to politics and taken to its extreme kitsch is the mask of death. Fascism was all aesthetics. There was no core principle to it. There was no truth to it.

The wages of sin are death but by the time taxes are taken out it's just sort of a tired feeling.

If life must not be taken too seriously then so neither must death.

As men are not able to fight against death misery ignorance they have taken it into their heads in order to be happy not to think of them at all.

My dad was a musician it was just what he did like another guy's dad drives a meat truck. Our house was normal. We weren't taken with the fact our dad was a musician.

I've always taken my love of children from my father. He was a children magnet. Suddenly having my first child hit home what my dad went through.

Babies don't need fathers but mothers do. Someone who is taking care of a baby needs to be taken care of.
