Death is one moment and life is so many of them.
We sometimes congratulate ourselves at the moment of waking from a troubled dream it may be so the moment after death.
Life is but a moment death also is but another.
Watching a peaceful death of a human being reminds us of a falling star one of a million lights in a vast sky that flares up for a brief moment only to disappear into the endless night forever.
Even though people may be well known they hold in their hearts the emotions of a simple person for the moments that are the most important of those we know on earth: birth marriage and death.
There are as is known insects that die in the moment of fertilization. So it is with all joy: life's highest most splendid moment of enjoyment is accompanied by death.
Those who have the strength and the love to sit with a dying patient in the silence that goes beyond words will know that this moment is neither frightening nor painful but a peaceful cessation of the functioning of the body.
Dating is just awkward moments and one person wants more than the other. It's just that constant strangeness. I think it's a very real thing.
There's been times when I've had heartbreaking moments and I'm like 'I can't believe you said that ' or 'I can't believe you did that'. And it hurts it still hurts and it'll always hurt but I've never had somebody that I truly cared about just walk out on me whether it was a boyfriend or an aunt mom or dad.
When my father died in my arms it had such a profound affect on me that at that very moment when my dad passed I realized that I needed to face my own fears.
The moment my doctor told me I went silent. My mum and dad were with me then we all went to pieces. I was saying No I've got my flight to Sydney in two hours. I'm getting on a plane.
Becoming a dad was the proudest moment of my life. Playing football does not even compare.
I think the moments that are difficult for anybody are when you see what your life could be if only you had the courage to take the steps needed.
That's what acting is - it's about... having the courage to allow your audience into the private moments of your characters' lives.
Courage! I have shown it for years think you I shall lose it at the moment when my sufferings are to end?
The only courage that matters is the kind that gets you from one moment to the next.
And I love that even in the toughest moments when we're all sweating it - when we're worried that the bill won't pass and it seems like all is lost - Barack never lets himself get distracted by the chatter and the noise. Just like his grandmother he just keeps getting up and moving forward... with patience and wisdom and courage and grace.
