• By just passing through things, I continue to slightly limit myself. I want the jobs that don't say that much. I'm often the stepping stone or the conduit from one thing to another. I love the idea of existing in a film and growing and having bigger arcs, and being in scenes where you're just being, as opposed to talking. That' one of my ambitions, lying ahead.

  Gavin Rossdale

• Freedom so often means that one isn't needed anywhere. Here you are an individual, you have a background of your own, you would be missed. But off there in the cities there are thousands of rolling stones like me. We are all alike; we have no ties, we know nobody, we own nothing.

• If you are really spontaneous, people will think you are mad.  If you go to a tree and start talking, or to a flower, people will think you are mad.  If you go to a church and talk to a cross or to an image, nobody will think your are mad, they will think that you are religious.  You are talking to a stone in a temple and everybody thinks you are religious because this is the authorized form.

  Rajneesh

• Te sugiero que es porque Dios nos ama por lo que nos da el don del sufrimiento. El dolor es el megáfono de Dios para despertar a un mundo sordo.

• When anyone hurts us, my wife and I sit in our Japanese sand garden and drink iced tea. There are five stone in the garden - for sky, wind, fire, water, and earth.

  Red Skelton
