I remember one morning getting up at dawn, there was such a sense of possibility. You know, that feeling? And I remember thinking to myself: So, this is the beginning of happiness. This is where it starts. And of course there will always be more. It never occurred to me it wasn’t the beginning. It was happiness. It was the moment. Right then. —Clarissa Vaughn (The Hours)
You may be as brave as you make believe you are. —Deborah Kerr,
The King and I
Suddenly she felt strong and happy. She was not afraid of the darkness or the fog and she knew with a singing in her heart that she would never fear them again. No matter what mists might curl around her in the future, she knew her refuge. She started briskly up the street toward home and the blocks seemed very long. Far, far too long. She caught up her skirts to her knees and began to run lightly. But this time she was not running from fear. She was running because Rhett’s arms were at the end of the street. —

I think that you have to find your own way. You have your own rules. You have your own understanding of yourself, and that’s what you are going to count on. In the end, it’s what feels right to you. Not what your mother told you. Not what some actress told you. Not what anybody else told you but the still, small voice. —Meryl Streep (via

Way to go, Sam. —Daniel Jackson, summing up THE ENTIRE SHOW (via
