I have a lot of plants and fish and a pet lizard and Venus flytraps. I have a whole ecosystem in my room like a running waterfall and different lights and sensors set on digital timers.

I want to light the lights of patriotism.

The scientist does not study nature because it is useful he studies it because he delights in it and he delights in it because it is beautiful.

Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.

Music is an agreeable harmony for the honor of God and the permissible delights of the soul.

Quite often - a lot of the work I had done had been extensively with women. Most especially in the theater but also quite often in the movies. That has its own delights and maybe pitfalls too.

We should have a State in which we could live and breathe as free men and which we could develop according to our own lights and culture and where principles of Islamic social justice could find free play.

A woman has two smiles that an angel might envy the smile that accepts a lover before words are uttered and the smile that lights on the first born babe and assures it of a mother's love.

True love comes quietly without banners or flashing lights. If you hear bells get your ears checked.

Children themselves know they are being cheated. Ultimately we owe it to our children. They are in school for 190 days a year. Every moment they spend learning is precious. If a year goes by and they are not being stretched and excited that blights their life.

Learning operatic roles is ongoing and I find that I can learn on the train or subway during a manicure getting my hair done and even while driving if I only look at the score at red lights.

I agree completely with my son James when he says 'Internet is like electricity. The latter lights up everything while the former lights up knowledge'.

With all the knowledge and skill acquired in thousands of flights in the last ten years I would hardly think today of making my first flight on a strange machine in a twenty-seven mile wind even if I knew that the machine had already been flown and was safe.

I was brought up in a very open rural countryside in the middle of nowhere. There were no cell phones. If your lights went out you were lit by candlelight for a good four days before they can get to you. And so my imagination was crazy.

We say God and the imagination are one... How high that highest candle lights the dark.

The imagination is the spur of delights... all depends upon it it is the mainspring of everything now is it not by means of the imagination one knows joy? Is it not of the imagination that the sharpest pleasures arise?

When they see those fourteen lights they're looking at a miracle. And deep down they feel that whatever's going to happen there will be someone there to help them. And that fills them with hope.
