I rely on guns for protection in life. God does not say 'This is la-la land.' God doesn't say 'Welcome to Earth. Everything's perfect. There's no crime. There's no murder. There's no death.' The world is imperfect and you have to be on guard.

There is no such thing as an ugly language. Today I hear every language as if it were the only one and when I hear of one that is dying it overwhelms me as though it were the death of the earth.

The sole equality on earth is death.

The earth is rocky and full of roots it's clay and it seems doomed and polluted but you dig little holes for the ugly shriveled bulbs throw in a handful of poppy seeds and cover it all over and you know you'll never see it again - it's death and clay and shrivel and your hands are nicked from the rocks your nails black with soil.

I don't believe in life after death. But I do believe in some grinding destiny that watches over us on earth. If I didn't the safety valve would give and the boiler would explode.

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.

The 'kingdom of Heaven' is a condition of the heart - not something that comes 'upon the earth' or 'after death.'

In the inhalation and exhalation there is an energy and a lively divine spirit since He through his spirit supports the breath of life giving courage to the people who are in the earth and spirit to those who walk on it.

Some of the greatest survivors have been women. Look at the courage so many women have shown after surviving earthquakes in the rubble for days on end.

Let a new earth rise. Let another world be born. Let a bloody peace be written in the sky. Let a second generation full of courage issue forth let a people loving freedom come to growth.

Every human being on this earth is born with a tragedy and it isn't original sin. He's born with the tragedy that he has to grow up... a lot of people don't have the courage to do it.

The greatest test of courage on earth is to bear defeat without losing heart.

Everyone focuses on the earthly state but how cool might death be? I believe in spiritual rebirth and I can't wait to experience that.

We used to play the underground clubs like the UFO and Middle Earth and they were great because they would have on things like a poet string quartets and then a rock band! It was kinda cool!

Everybody hangs out with everybody which is very strange for a cast this large and this young. We're all cool and down to earth and not caught up in this maniacal business at all... . Everybody really really likes everybody else.

The great thing about it is in Hollywood certain people are very good at keeping their lives and who they are very private. I've never met anybody as down to earth and cool in Hollywood than Matt Damon.

I feel like people start to believe things that people say about them and start to think they're really important. If you have a family that is down to earth and cool I don't see how you can be like that.

Someone once told me that something they really liked about me was that they thought that I was really down to earth and not high-maintenance. I think that was cool. It's important to stay grounded.

I haven't left the house without a packet of Kleenex in my back pocket for as long as I can remember. Whenever I start thinking I'm incredibly cool the packet of Kleenex in my back pocket brings me right back down to earth.

Like a welcome summer rain humor may suddenly cleanse and cool the earth the air and you.

A smartphone links patients' bodies and doctors' computers which in turn are connected to the Internet which in turn is connected to any smartphone anywhere. The new devices could put the management of an individual's internal organs in the hands of every hacker online scammer and digital vandal on Earth.

We've lost touch and allowed technology to take precedence over organic nature. But let's not forget that those microchips in our computers came from elements of the earth.

I like television. I still believe that television is the most powerful form of communication on Earth - I just hate what is being done with it.

If we ever start communicating with living creatures from other planets the number one priority is how are you going to communicate information? Even between different cultures here on Earth you get into communication problems.
