Men speak of natural rights but I challenge any one to show where in nature any rights existed or were recognized until there was established for their declaration and protection a duly promulgated body of corresponding laws.

I think we're going to the moon because it's in the nature of the human being to face challenges. It's by the nature of his deep inner soul... we're required to do these things just as salmon swim upstream.

You can't be suspicious of a tree or accuse a bird or a squirrel of subversion or challenge the ideology of a violet.

I've programmed myself musically to come up with love-feeling tracks that are romantic sexy but classy all in one. And that's the challenge. Once I create that music then the lyrical content starts to come - you know the stories and things like that.

My body looks like 30 but my face looks like 50. But I cannot walk bare-chested in the streets. I like to do these movies to challenge myself physically.

I went through this very serious Woody Allen phase in college and a little bit after college. I still see his movies.

I don't see that many movies lately that are actually about something that are trying to challenge something about the way that people interact.

I think romance is a tool comedy is a tool and drama is a tool. I really just want to tell stories that challenge the viewer move people make you laugh perhaps push an idea about being open-minded but never settle on a genre or an opinion. I hate genre. I like movies that are original in their approach.

Woody Allen is really the ultimate. I love that he believed in himself enough to do what he did. And I have that same feeling - that there's nobody that looks like me in movies nobody would cast me as a romantic lead but I want to do it and I feel confident that I can.

In life and in movies it's a similar challenge where you have expectations and you end up in situations that are not meeting your expectations.

Another challenge? Getting up at 6:30 in the morning to go act. It's not fun acting that early in the morning or acting at 4 A.M in the middle of the night or in the morning when you're really tired. That's a challenge. What a luxurious problem to have.

We had news this morning of another successful atomic bomb being dropped on Nagasaki. These two heavy blows have fallen in quick succession upon the Japanese and there will be quite a little space before we intend to drop another.

It is a challenge with the global fame to try to act like I put my pants on one leg at a time when in fact I have Pippa Middleton help me put my pants on every morning. She's my lady-in-waiting as well.

It's been very hard after being mostly a mom to develop an adult life of my own. And not being married anymore I have to come up with challenges.

There is nothing better than being a parent. It is the most challenging job one could ever ask for. I love being a mom and I love being a friend to my children as well.

A woman who is willing to be herself and pursue her own potential runs not so much the risk of loneliness as the challenge of exposure to more interesting men - and people in general.

In a broken marriage it can be challenging and tough to get that work/life balance. I love performing but I also love being a mum and I hate having to choose between them.

I suffered from a mild case of postpartum depression after my second child and the physical challenge of maintaining an overnight shift at CBS a marriage and two in diapers made the symptoms worse and everyone in the house paid the price.

I'm always told that what I say is controversial. Why is it controversial? Because I speak from a tradition that has now fallen out of favor with the dominant media in this country. And so when I say things like marriage should be between one man and one woman I'm called a bigot.

I could be wrong but I think heterosexual marriage is threatened more by heterosexuals. I don't know why gay marriage challenges my marriage in any way.

Before I met my husband I'd never fallen in love. I'd stepped in it a few times.

Keep your eyes open to your mercies. The man who forgets to be thankful has fallen asleep in life.

Being in control of your life and having realistic expectations about your day-to-day challenges are the keys to stress management which is perhaps the most important ingredient to living a happy healthy and rewarding life.

I challenge you to make your life a masterpiece. I challenge you to join the ranks of those people who live what they teach who walk their talk.

Opportunities to find deeper powers within ourselves come when life seems most challenging.

Life is a song - sing it. Life is a game - play it. Life is a challenge - meet it. Life is a dream - realize it. Life is a sacrifice - offer it. Life is love - enjoy it.

The work is challenging interesting and an important part of our legal system.

A free and open Internet should not have to be weighed down by legal challenges - its dynamism is essential to our economy.

Literature is made upon any occasion that a challenge is put to the legal apparatus by conscience in touch with humanity.

These endless legal challenges that define elections in New York are a joke in this country and they are the reason why it is so expensive or one of the reasons it's so expensive to run here and why so many people decide not to run.
