When I moved to New York and got into serious acting, I just kind of abandoned the whole singing thing. But when I grew up in Pennsylvania I went to voice lessons once a week. Amanda Seyfried
There is a 'sanctity' involved with bringing a child into this world: it is better than bombing one out of it. James A.Baldwin
Why are we building golf courses? Because we enjoy being outside, bringing man and nature together. Jack Nicklaus
Work is a way of bringing order to chaos, and there's a basic satisfaction in seeing that we are able to make something a little more coherent by the end of the day. Alain de Botton
