I don't believe in guilt I believe in living on impulse as long as you never intentionally hurt another person and don't judge people in your life. I think you should live completely free.

As an audience member those studio films are fun. I like an adventure tale and I also like to go see something that has more of a social pulse. I like to keep learning and trying new things. And if the scripts are good it doesn't really matter.

Nature is at work. Character and destiny are her handiwork. She gives us love and hate jealousy and reverence. All that is ours is the power to choose which impulse we shall follow.

Every heart that has beat strongly and cheerfully has left a hopeful impulse behind it in the world and bettered the tradition of mankind.

Vision - It reaches beyond the thing that is into the conception of what can be. Imagination gives you the picture. Vision gives you the impulse to make the picture your own.

Hope is a necessity for normal life and the major weapon against the suicide impulse.

My hope is that people will be repulsed by the character's complete lack of ethics and obsession with consumerism - that's what I was saying about the difference between the character's message and the film's message.

I am very lucky that I get to tell stories for a living. I love being able to grab people's attention to keep them turning the pages to make them stay awake all night. I want to stir the pulse yes but also to stir the heart. I hope 'The Woods' does that.

There's only one thing harder than living in a home with an adolescent - and that's being an adolescent. The moodiness the volatility the wholesale lack of impulse control all would be close to clinical conditions if they occurred at another point in life. In adolescence they're just part of the behavioral portfolio.

A man who leaves home to mend himself and others is a philosopher but he who goes from country to country guided by the blind impulse of curiosity is a vagabond.

Through all of history mankind has ingested psychedelic substances. Those substances exist to put you in touch with spirits beyond yourself with the creator with the creative impulse of the planet.

Happiness never lays its finger on its pulse.

Great things are not done by impulse but by a series of small things brought together.

The boy who is going to make a great man must not make up his mind merely to overcome a thousand obstacles but to win in spite of a thousand repulses and defeats.

Worry - a God invisible but omnipotent. It steals the bloom from the cheek and lightness from the pulse it takes away the appetite and turns the hair gray.

On the one hand the idea of marriage and the sort of traditional family life repulses me. But on the other hand I long for it you know what I mean? I'm constantly in conflict with things. And it is because of my past and my upbringing and the journey that I've been on.

The impulse to dream was slowly beaten out of me by experience. Now it surged up again and I hungered for books new ways of looking and seeing.

Americans don't pay much attention to environmental issues because they aren't sexy. I mean cleaning up coal plants and reining in outlaw frackers is hugely important work but it doesn't get anybody's pulse racing.

Obviously one must hold oneself responsible for the evil impulses of one's dreams. In what other way can one deal with them? Unless the content of the dream rightly understood is inspired by alien spirits it is part of my own being.

I think that the romantic impulse is in all of us and that sometimes we live it for a short time but it's not part of a sensible way of living. It's a heroic path and it generally ends dangerously. I treasure it in the sense that I believe it's a path of great courage. It can also be the path of the foolhardy and the compulsive.

I got interested in computers and how they could be enslaved to the megalomaniac impulses of a teenager.

Best of all is it to preserve everything in a pure still heart and let there be for every pulse a thanksgiving and for every breath a song.

For the man sound of body and serene of mind there is no such thing as bad weather every day has its beauty and storms which whip the blood do but make it pulse more vigorously.

My deepest impulses are optimistic an attitude that seems to me as spiritually necessary and proper as it is intellectually suspect.
