Let us be a little humble let us think that the truth may not perhaps be entirely with us.
I have followed holiness I have taught truth and I have been most in the main things not that I thought the things concerning our times little but that I thought none could do anything to purpose in God's great and public matters till they were right in their conditions.
There is little more powerful than when truth joins action.
There are few things in which we deceive ourselves more than in the esteem we profess to entertain for our firends. It is little better than a piece of quackery. The truth is we think of them as we please that is as they please or displease us.
A writer should have this little voice inside of you saying Tell the truth. Reveal a few secrets here.
Seldom very seldom does complete truth belong to any human disclosure seldom can it happen that something is not a little disguised or a little mistaken.
I speak the truth not so much as I would but as much as I dare and I dare a little more as I grow older.
Too much and too little wine. Give him none he cannot find truth give him too much the same.
Human love has little regard for the truth. It makes the truth relative since nothing not even the truth must come between it and the beloved person.
We swallow greedily any lie that flatters us but we sip only little by little at a truth we find bitter.
Because Microsoft seems to sometimes not trust customer choice they salt XP with all these little gizmos and trap doors to get people to try Microsoft stuff. But the reality is that we're downloading more players than we ever have on a worldwide basis.
The Macau casinos have a wonderful business it's taking in money from Chinese businessmen elsewhere who send it through junky companies to casinos to gamble. The growth continues and they have basically western managers and western accounting so we trust the numbers a little bit more.
I find I like to work with a lot of the same actors because I find that there's sort of shorthand there and there is this unspoken trust both ways. They trust me and I trust them. And I know what I'm going to get from them to an extent. It's just fun kind of creating this little family.
Central authority is bad. The bias should be for freedom. And without a central authority there are lots of little authorities and we learn which ones to trust.
When you play a concerto with a small orchestra you don't feel it is as important as Carnegie Hall. You try to work out all the little problems. Once that's all done trust comes in.
When I'm on stage it's a little world I've created where I'm sort of the thing so I have total control over everything that happens. When we're improvising I'm with someone I totally trust. I know things are going to work out. I don't have those guarantees in life. There are no consequences on stage.
There is so much temptation to hold on to my career even more now. To try to micromanage and dictate every little aspect. But that's not how I want to do things anymore. I'm thinking about how can I trust God more. How can I surrender more? How can I bring him more glory? It's a fight. But it's one I'm going to keep fighting.
