The word courage - God, I love that word. Words are so important to me.

~ Kimberly Guilfoyle
Cognitive therapy is based on the idea that when you change the way you think, you can change the way you feel and behave. In other words, if we can learn to think about other people in a more positive and realistic way, it will be far easier to resolve conflicts and develop rewarding personal and professional relationships.
~ David D. Burns
I know that I do have influence over the people who watch me, and it's quite a pressure. I have to stay positive, and while I would never use the words 'role model', I am mindful of the responsibilities that come with a substantial viewership.
~ Zoe Sugg
Those minutes that I'm on stage are the best! Being there and looking at the crowd and seeing their faces, hearing them sing the positive words from the songs.

~ Jordyn Wieber
Let us celebrate the occasion with wine and sweet words.
~ Plautus
The movies that influenced me were movies that told their stories through pictures more than words.
~ Sam Mendes
I've always loved silent movies. I recently saw 'Tilly's Punctured Romance' at the Academy, which is the first comedy made with Charlie Chaplin in 1914, and I sat there, and I couldn't believe that the entire audience of 2,000 people were laughing that hard from a movie made in 1914 - and there were no words; it was all faces.
~ Taylor Negron
When I see someone in a military uniform I make it a point to approach them, shake their hand and say five words... 'thank you for your service.' 'Stars Earn Stripes' is a high energy, fun, action show, but at its heart it is all about those five words.
~ Mark Burnett
Faith is an excitement and an enthusiasm: it is a condition of intellectual magnificence to which we must cling as to a treasure, and not squander on our way through life in the small coin of empty words, or in exact and priggish argument.
~ George Sand
If I were dying, my last words would be: Have faith and pursue the unknown end.
~ Oliver Wendell Holmes
Sometimes you need faith and victory spoken over your life. Words have created power. When you receive them into your spirit, they can ignite seeds of increase on the inside.
~ Joel Osteen
Many are ready, when listening to the inventor, to belittle and deny his achievements so that he will no longer be heard in honourable places, but after some months or a year, they use the inventor's words in speech or writing or design.
~ Filippo Brunelleschi
Language, philosophy, and science are interwoven into the design of words, which are manipulated to create surprising illusions.
~ John Langdon
When writing for the page, the focus is on the design - how the words appear on the page. I try to make it as direct and simple as possible.
~ Rupi Kaur
We struggle with the right words to describe the design process at Apple. But it is very much about designing and prototyping and making.
~ Jonathan Ive
Maurice Sendak is the daddy of them all when it comes to picture books - the words, the rhythm, the psychology, the design.
~ Anthony Browne
Rituals, anthropologists will tell us, are about transformation. The rituals we use for marriage, baptism or inaugurating a president are as elaborate as they are because we associate the ritual with a major life passage, the crossing of a critical threshold, or in other words, with transformation.
~ Abraham Verghese
Twitter is the marriage of full-tilt narcissism and full-tilt voyeurism that has finally collided in 140 words.
~ Adam Goldberg

When you use words loosely, without care and consideration, you erode trust in yourself and in what you're saying. When you squander words, you diminish your power.
~ Margaret Heffernan
I discipline churchgoers with godly lessons and sharp words if they do not change their ways. My goal is to open their hearts so that they seek forgiveness.
~ William Brewster
I would define, in brief, the poetry of words as the rhythmical creation of Beauty.

The way a woman carries herself and the way she dresses ought to promote the following types of words: modesty, discretion, wisdom, beauty, elegance and refinement, but not sensuality, luxury, extravagance.

One of the disadvantages of wine is that it makes a man mistake words for thoughts.
~ Samuel Johnson
The human brain is a funny thing: it's very susceptible to tempo and melody. You put the right words to it, and it becomes very influential.
~ Ray Stevens
Rapping can be repetition sometimes. Sometimes you gotta highlight your words in a certain kind of way. So I always was a fan of sing-rapping. It was always funny to me a little bit, and I think that being funny and being able to laugh, even at yourself, is a form of flattery.
~ Asap Ferg
The word 'funny' is a bit like the word 'love' - we don't have enough words to describe the many varieties.
~ George Saunders
Writing is more about imagination than anything else. I fell in love with words. I fell in love with storytelling.
~ Pat Conroy
When I was a young person I went to the university and I learned a rational language, to think with the left side of the brain. But in the right side of the brain you have intuition and imagination. Words are not the truth; they indicate the way to go, but you need to go alone, in silence. Symbols have a language that kills the words.
~ Alejandro Jodorowsky
