He who writes carelessly confesses thereby at the very outset that he does not attach much importance to his own thoughts.
God can dream a bigger dream for you than you can dream for yourself, and your role on Earth is to attach yourself to that divine force and let yourself be released to it.
Maybe I'm being a bit harsh on philosophers, but they have not been very kind to me. . . I have been variously called nominalist, an instrumentalist, a positivist, a realist, and several other ists. The technique seems refutation by denigration: If you can attach a label to my approach, you don't have to say what is wrong with it. . . I am sure that Einstein, Heisenberg and Dirac didn't worry about whether they were realists or instrumentalists.
An unprejudiced mind is probably the rarest thing in the world; to nonprejudice I attach the greatest value.

Attach yourself to those who advise you rather than praise you.
A thesis has to be presentable. . . but don't attach too much importance to it. If you do succeed in the sciences, you will do later on better things and then it will be of little moment. If you don't succeed in the sciences, it doesn't matter at all.
If you know what it is before you even start, it's not as interesting. Central to being an actor is pretending, and the adventure of it all. That's why you become a junkie for different kinds of situations. I try to attach myself to people who really inspire me, and directors who are really passionate. That way, I can give myself more fully and trust the impulse behind why the film is being made, and I can be a little more irresponsible in finding out what the character is. I have to worry less about what the character means if I trust the director.
I don't think the American people had a clear picture of either Nixon or me. I think they thought that Nixon was a strong, decisive, tough-minded guy and that I was an idealist and antiwar guy who might not attach enough significance to the security of the country.

For women live much more in the past. . . they attach themselves to places.
