Good Morning! Here are your daily birthday quotations...

Johnny Depp (1963 - ):

“I think everybody’s nuts.”

and

“Music touches us emotionally, where words alone can't.”

and

“There are four questions of value in life... What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for, and what is worth dying for? The answer to each is same. Only love.”

and

“You can close your eyes to the things you don't want to see, but you can't close your heart to the things you don't want to feel.”

Aaron Sorkin (1961 - ):

“Education is the silver bullet. Education is everything. We don't need little changes. We need gigantic revolutionary changes. . . . Competition for the best teachers should be fierce. They should be getting six-figure salaries. Schools should be incredibly expensive for government and absolutely free of charge for its citizens, just like national defense."

and

“A friend is somebody who says the same things to your face that they would say if you're not in the room.”

and

“I love writing, but hate starting. The page is awfully white and it says, 'You may have fooled some of the people some of the time but those days are over, Giftless. I'm not your agent and I'm not your mommy: I'm a white piece of paper. You wanna dance with me?' and I really, really don't. I'll go peaceable-like.”

Michael J. Fox (1961 - ):

“One's dignity may be assaulted, vandalized and cruelly mocked, but it can never be taken away unless it is surrendered.”

and

“Pay attention to what's happening around you. Read the book before you see the movie. Remember, though you, alone, are responsible for your own happiness, its still okay to feel responsible for someone else's. Live and to learn.”

Gregory Maguire (1954 - ):

“Books fall open, you fall in. When you climb out again, you're a bit larger than you used to be.”
