Happiness is holding someone in your arms and knowing you hold the whole world.
Oscar Wilde always makes me smile – with respect and admiration. His short stories prove that it is possible to be both sarcastic, even cynical, but deeply compassionate. Just seeing the cover of one of Wilde’s books in a bookshop makes me smile.
Culture is mix. Culture means a mix of things from other sources. And my town, Istanbul, was this kind of mix. Istanbul, in fact, and my work, is a testimony to the fact that East and West combine cultural gracefully, or sometimes in an anarchic way, came together, and that is what we should search for.
I don’t much care whether rural Anatolians or Istanbul secularists take power. I’m not close to any of them. What I care about is respect for the individual.
Istanbul is a vast place. There are very conservative neighbourhoods, there are places that are upper class, Westernised, consuming Western culture.
I had the feeling that focusing on objects and telling a story through them would make my protagonists different from those in Western novels – more real, more quintessentially of Istanbul.
The secularists in Turkey haven’t underestimated religion, they just made the mistake of believing they could control it with the power of the army alone.
I consider myself Istanbul’s storyteller. My subject matter is my town. I consider it my job to explore the hidden patterns of my city’s clandestine corners, its shady, mysterious places, the things I love.
From a very young age, I suspected there was more to my world than I could see: somewhere in the streets of Istanbul, in a house resembling ours, there lived another Orhan so much like me he could pass for my twin, even my double.
Modernity means overabundance. We are living in the age of mass-produced objects, things that come without announcing themselves and end up on our tables, on our walls. We use them – most of us don’t even notice them – and then they vanish without fanfare.

If we continue to develop our technology without wisdom or prudence, our servant may prove to be our executioner.
I have returned many times to honour the valiant men who died…every man who set foot on Omaha Beach was a hero.
Our humanity is trapped by moral adolescents. We have too many men of science, too few men of God. The world has achieved brilliance without wisdom and power without conscience.
Freedom-no word was ever spoken that has held out greater hope, demanded greater sacrifice, needed more to be nurtured, blessed more the giver. . . or came closer to being God’s will on earth.
Dependability, integrity, the characteristic of never knowingly doing anything wrong, that you would never cheat anyone, that you would give everybody a fair deal. Character is a sort of an all-inclusive thing. If a man has character, everyone has confidence in him.
It seems very unfortunate that in order to secure political preference, people are made Vice President who are never intended, neither by party nor by the Lord, to be Presidents.
If you will help run our government in the American way, then there will never be any danger of our government running America in the wrong way.
I learned that good judgment comes from experience and that experience grows out of mistakes.
Each player on this team whether he shines in the spotlight or eats dirt on the line, must be an All-American.
America today is running on the momentum of a godly ancestry, and when that momentum runs down, God help America.

I think I’ve always been half out of my shell and half in. Sometimes I can be extremely wild and sometimes I can be extremely shy. It just depends on the day.
Maybe you will be afraid and maybe you will fail, but the courage to take risks in any part of your life is, I feel, a very worthwhile way to live.
I identify with someone wanting something to work out, but not being able to get through the rocks to the river.
The willingness to keep learning is, I think, the most important thing about trying to be good at anything. You never want to stop learning.
Believing in yourself you gain confidence, which allows you to relax. Relaxation is one of the most important parts about acting.

Never lookin’ back or too far in front of me; the present is a gift and I just wanna be.

William H. Macy’s 5 most popular quotes
Nobody became an actor because he had a good childhood.
For a performer to get rage, or to get hostility or shock or any kind of emotions from the audience is a joy. The thing I think actors fear the most is boredom or inattention. That’s what kills me.
When I lived in New York, I supported myself by doing commercials. Mostly I auditioned. Once in a blue moon, I would actually book one.
I can’t cook to save my soul. Every once in a while I’ll cook something that’s really good. And if you put a gun to my head, I couldn’t repeat it.
It’s not the actor’s job to be funny, it’s the writer’s job. It’s the actor’s job to be truthful, and then the humor will come out.

As a teenager, you’re still discovering who you are, what your life is about, and who you want to be as a person. It’s very intense.
I didn’t want to be the girl in the group that couldn’t do as much as the boys. I’m very competitive like that.
It’s great to have people to bounce off and I love working with people my age. I think young actors have such energy about them and such a passion and a drive to do their best and prove themselves constantly, and to work with that is really fun and interesting.
Who doesn’t? I cry and smile every day. I grew up scared, because I was so skinny and had no boobs. It’s only now that I just think, Sod it! Everyone’s different. I’m contented and happy as I am.
You don’t have to necessarily go down the drama school route, or have connections in the industry. You can just make it.

There certainly is such a thing as screen chemistry, although I don’t believe you find it frequently.
The one thing that you simply have to remember all the time that you are there is that Hollywood is an Oriental city. As long as you do that, you might survive. If you try to equate it with anything else, you’ll perish.
Playing good girls in the ’30s was difficult, when the fad was to play bad girls. Actually I think playing bad girls is a bore; I have always had more luck with good girl roles because they require more from an actress.
My sister has decided to become an actress too. It has ruined the close-knittedness of our family life.
It’s hard to keep on being civil when they ask you such annoying questions.
I’m all for typewriters, with instant carbon copies, and seeing films in cinemas.
I was shocked and saddened to learn of the passing of my sister, Joan Fontaine … and I appreciate the many kind expressions of sympathy that we have received.
I was quite thin, and I didn’t have to worry until I had my appendix out and a mysterious metabolic change occurred.
I wanted to be what my high-school civics and history teacher thought of as a good American. That automatically involved taking an interest in government.
I don’t need a fantasy life as once I did. That is the life of the imagination that I had a great need for. Films were the perfect means for satisfying that need.

A man’s mind is stretched by a new idea or sensation, and never shrinks back to its former dimensions.
What refuge is there for the victim who is oppressed with the feeling that there are a thousand new books he ought to read, while life is only long enough for him to attempt to read a hundred?
Every now and then a man’s mind is stretched by a new idea or sensation, and never shrinks back to its former dimensions.
It’s faith in something and enthusiasm for something that makes a life worth living.
Men do not quit playing because they grow old; they grow old because they quit playing.
The books we read should be chosen with great care, that they may be, as an Egyptian king wrote over his library,’The medicines of the soul.
Many people die with their music still in them. Too often it is because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it time runs out.
The sound of a kiss is not so loud as that of a cannon, but its echo lasts a great deal longer.
The morning cup of coffee has an exhilaration about it which the cheering influence of the afternoon or evening cup of tea cannot be expected to reproduce.
When I think of talking, it is of course with a woman. For talking at its best being an inspiration, it wants a corresponding divine quality of receptiveness, and where will you find this but in a woman?

The great thing in this world is not so much where we are, but in what direction we are going.

The first requirement of a sound body of law is, that it should correspond with the actual feelings and demands of the community, whether right or wrong.
We should be eternally vigilant against attempts to check the expression of opinions that we loathe.
