Claude Adrien Helvetius Zitate

There are men whom a happy disposition, a strong desire of glory and esteem, inspire with the same love for justice and virtue which men in general have for riches and honors... But the number of these men is so small that I only mention them in honor of humanity.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Es gibt Männer, die eine glückliche Disposition, ein starkes Verlangen nach Ruhm und Wertschätzung mit der gleichen Liebe für Gerechtigkeit und Tugend begeistern, die Männer im Allgemeinen für Reichtum und Ehre haben ... Aber die Anzahl dieser Männer ist so gering, dass ich nur erwähne sie zu Ehren der Menschheit.

I generally like very visually striking films. I love a lot of Stanley Kubrick's films. I would have to say 'Dr. Strangelove', which of course has got resonance in 'Watchmen'. It's a favorite movie of mine.

I finally get to the place where the book has matured in my mind and I can hardly wait to start writing it. Then I just sit down and I start. I hit the go button. I have an outline, which is 70 pages, but I don't look at it. I never have to look at it.

The tests which showed that this was the only rifle which had the markings which were shown on the bullets; the fact that a man was seen by several witnesses, not identified, but seen in the window with the general description of what he looked like.

Number one is that it just scares people! Your hair is standing up on your arms, or at least that there's a few moments when you're jumping. That's what makes it a good horror movie.

Happy is he who still loves something he loved in the nursery: He has not been broken in two by time; he is not two men, but one, and he has saved not only his soul but his life.
