Henry Wadsworth Longfellow It is a beautiful trait in the lover's character, that they think no evil of the object loved. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Politics ruins the character. Otto von Bismarck Eccentricity has always abounded when and where strength of character had abounded; and the amount of eccentricity in a society has generally been proportional to the amount of genius, mental vigor, and courage which it contained. John Stuart Mill All action is for the sake of some end; and rules of action, it seems natural to suppose, must take their whole character and color from the end to which they are subservient. John Stuart Mill I think the character does tend to suit an episodic thing, because what's fun about him is that he doesn't care about anyone else, and it's very difficult for a main character - a lead character - in a movie to not care about anybody else. Rowan Atkinson When I was doing Bean more than I've done him in the last few years, I did strange things - like appearing on chat shows in character as Mr. Bean. Rowan Atkinson It's the difficulty we had with Mr. Bean, actually, when it went from TV to film. You certainly discover that you need to explain more about a character. Rowan Atkinson And what's interesting about him as a comic character is that the custard pie hardly ever ends up on his face. Rowan Atkinson I would return to the Blackadder character if the opportunity came up. I have no qualms about that at all. Rowan Atkinson Character is the result of a system of stereotyped principals. David Hume I would solve a lot of literary problems just thinking about a character in the subway, where you can't do anything anyway. Toni Morrison Peace is not the absence of war, but a virtue based on strength of character. Baruch Spinoza What I did was take the Jesus of the Gospels, the Son of God, the Son of the Virgin Mary, and sought to make Him utterly believable, a vital breathing character. Anne Rice The thing should have plot and character, beginning, middle and end. Arouse pity and then have a catharsis. Those were the best principles I was ever taught. Anne Rice I gradually work myself into a frenzy as the shoot approaches, while we're choosing the costumes or working with the make-up artist. I'm not so much interested in my character as the film itself. Jeanne Moreau To give a character life in a short space of time, it helps if you arrive on screen with a past. Jeanne Moreau The highest qualities of character... must be earned. Lyman Abbott Science cannot tell theology how to construct a doctrine of creation, but you can't construct a doctrine of creation without taking account of the age of the universe and the evolutionary character of cosmic history. John Polkinghorne A young woman has young claws, well sharpened. If she has character, that is. And if she hasn't so much the worse for you. Henri Matisse |
