I consider writing an act of good citizenship.
The main purpose of life is to live rightly, think rightly, act rightly. The soul must languish when we give all our thought to the body.
How you think about your opportunities determines how you will act on them.
I don't think you can make a lawyer honest by an act of legislature. You've got to work on his conscience. And his lack of conscience is what makes him a lawyer.
What you think is fake in your head comes off as not enough on camera, a lot of times. You almost have to overdo it, in this overly, sort of Broadway, large-gestures kind of way to come off as being realistic on camera. It's strange. You almost have to act really fake to come off looking real.
I don't need to convince anybody that I know kung fu, but maybe somebody needs to know that I really can act, without doing a Chinese accent or a funny walk.
An act of justice closes the book on a misdeed; an act of vengeance writes one of its own
There are some men whose only mission among others is to act as intermediaries; one crosses them like bridges and keeps going.

I started doing standup when I was in college, and I would incorporate a lot of characters into my act.
The act of divine worship is the inestimable privilege of man, the only created being who bows in humility and adoration.
Since we are not permitted to act, we are obliged to know.
The most important factor in abandoning our thoughts is to look in the Bible and see what God says about a matter. Then we must determine to act on His Word rather than on our own thoughts or those the devil may whisper into our minds.
The greatest power God gave us is the power to choose. We have the opportunity to choose whether we're going to act or procrastinate, believe or doubt, pray or curse, help or heal. We also choose whether we're going to be happy or whether we're going to be sad.
Higher energy prices act like a tax. They reduce the disposable income people have available for other things after they've paid their energy bills.
Write every day; never give up; it's supposed to be difficult; try to find some pleasure and reward in the act of writing, because you can't look for praise from editors, readers, or critics. In other words, tips that are much easier to give than to take.
