Things, very strange things, happen in folktales and there is never much attention given to the whys and wherefores.
When we get into the spirit world, and the veil is withdrawn, we shall then perhaps understand the whys and wherefores.
The standards of judgment must be rooted in the whys and wherefores of life as it is lived, the world as it is, not our wished-for fantasy of the world as it should be.
I find that a lot of my best character stuff and ideas come unwittingly from novels. In scripts, it's a lot about the outward signs of whatever's happening - you have the end result. Whereas in a novel you get a buildup of the whys and wherefores, and you're let into the backstory.
...he did not want me to seek the whys, because there are some things that happen for which we can formulate no whys, for which whys simply do not exist and, perhaps, are not necessary.
Sometimes that whys aren't knowable, so you just have to ignore the whys, and just focus on what is and move on.
The Lord never makes a mistake. One day, when we are in heaven, I'm sure we shall see the answers to the whys.
Prayer changes things. Prayer changes us. Prayer changes life. Sometimes an event has been manifested that needs to be stopped, midair. Don't pray just when you're in trouble. Pray every day. Surround yourself with prayer. You never know when you might need an extra miracle.
We read not only because we cannot know enough people, but because friendship is so vulnerable, so likely to diminish or disappear, overcome by space, time, imperfect sympathies, and all the sorrows of familial and passional life.
Wall Street never changes, the pockets change, the suckers change, the stocks change, but Wall Street never changes, because human nature never changes.
If you never take a risk, you will never know what changes you need to make.
The April winds are magical, And thrill our tuneful frames; The garden-walks are passional To bachelors and dames.
I know who I am, and that never changes.
The big thing for actors is the level of commitment. So, if you know something's already happened, there's not a whole lot of whys and hows that go down. You just innately commit 'cause it happened. It does help with commitment.
When I feel it, I got it, 'cause, like, on 'Changes,' I didn't never know what that song was, never knew who it was or who did it, but Tom Brenneck asked me to do that song.
The only thing that never changes is that everything changes.
