There's this idea that if you take your clothes off, somehow you must have…

There's this idea that if you take your clothes off, somehow you must have loose morals. There's still a negative attitude in our society towards women who use a strength that's inherent - their femininity - in any way that might be considered seductive. - Demi Moore

I've been called many names like perfectionist, difficult and obsessive. I think it takes obsession, takes searching for the details for any artist to be good. - Barbra Streisand

To have ego means to believe in your own strength. And to also be open to other people's views. It is to be open, not closed. So, yes, my ego is big, but it's also very small in some areas. My ego is responsible for my doing what I do - bad or good. - Barbra Streisand

Men are allowed to have passion and commitment for their work... a woman is allowed that feeling for a man, but not her work. - Barbra Streisand

Bitches. It's a very male-chauvinist word. I resent it deeply. A person who's a bitch would seem to be mean for no reason. I'm not a mean person. Maybe I'm rude without being aware of it - that's possible. - Barbra Streisand

I've considered having my nose fixed. But I didn't trust anyone enough. If I could do it myself with a mirror... - Barbra Streisand

There's something about death that is comforting. The thought that you could die tomorrow frees you to appreciate your life now. - Angelina Jolie

We come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly. - Angelina Jolie

I don't believe in guilt, I believe in living on impulse as long as you never intentionally hurt another person, and don't judge people in your life. I think you should live completely free. - Angelina Jolie

I like someone who is a little crazy but coming from a good place. I think scars are sexy because it means you made a mistake that led to a mess. - Angelina Jolie

If you're going to be alive and on this planet, you have to, like, suck the marrow out of every day and get the most out of it. - Drew Barrymore

If you're going to go through hell... I suggest you come back learning something. - Drew Barrymore

It's only through listening that you learn, and I never want to stop learning. - Drew Barrymore

Love is the hardest habit to break, and the most difficult to satisfy. - Drew Barrymore

There's something liberating about not pretending. Dare to embarrass yourself. Risk. - Drew Barrymore

The Right Man for the Job

The CIA had an opening for an assassin. After all of the background checks, interviews, and testing were done there were three finalists, two men and a woman.

For the final test, the CIA agents took one of the men to a large metal door and handed him a gun. "We must know that you will follow your instructions, no matter what the circumstances.

Inside this room, you will find your wife sitting in a chair ... Kill Her!!!"

The first man said, "You can't be serious. I could never shoot my wife." The agent said, "Then you're not the right man for this job."

The second man was given the same instructions. He took the gun and went into the room. All was quiet for about five minutes. Then the man came out with tears in his eyes. "I tried, but I can't kill my wife." The agent said, "You don't have what it takes ... take your wife and go home."

Finally, it was the woman's turn. She was given the same instructions ... kill her husband. She took the gun and went into the room. Shots were heard, one shot after another. They heard screaming, crashing, and banging on the walls. After a few minutes, all was quiet.

The door opened slowly and there stood the woman. She wiped the sweat from her brow and said, "You bastards didn't tell me the gun was loaded with blanks! I had to beat the son of a bitch to death with the chair!"

Kind of grim/ sexist humour. If it was a woman being beaten to death with a chair... it wouldn't have made me laugh at all.

"But when the self speaks to the self, who is speaking? The entombed…

"But when the self speaks to the self, who is speaking? The entombed soul, the spirit driven in, in, in to the central catacomb; the self that took the veil and left the world -- a coward perhaps, yet somehow beautiful, as it flits with its lantern restlessly up and down the dark corridors." - Virginia Woolf

"Sometimes I think creativity is magic; it's not a matter of finding an idea, but allowing the idea to find you." Maya Lin.
