The church saves sinners but science seeks to stop their manufacture.

It's a sad moment really when parents first become a bit frightened of their children.

It always makes me sad when I think of how I saw Wagner wasting his vitality not only by singing their parts to some of his artists but acting out the smallest details and of how few they were who were responsive to his wishes.

I have nothing against younger women and older men on screen. What is sad is that so many women over 40 who have so much to give aren't being considered to play opposite men their own age or younger.

In LA I mean here's this place full of desperate and sad people who take their only pleasure from destroying others for the purposes of their own self-aggrandizement.

I talked to ex-wives of musicians of the '70s for research. They're the funniest people in the world yet there is this sad beautiful thing in their eyes that says they've seen more than they could ever possibly tell you.

I love the sad songs with their maudlin self-deprecating almost funny lyrics. As an Englishman they make a lot of sense.
