Looking backward we could almost see, suspended with the most delicate equipoise above the flat little island, the ghostly shapes of those twin orbs of the Empire, the cricket ball and the blackball.
Patrick Leigh Fermor
If a man be gracious and courteous to strangers, it shows he is a citizen of the world, and that his heart is no island cut off from other lands, but a continent that joins to them.
Francis Bacon, Sr.
You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment. Fools stand on their island opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land, there is no other life but this.
Henry David Thoreau
This may be the day when finally after all the false dawns and dashed hope, peace replaced war, politics replaces terror on the island of Ireland. ... This is a step of unparalleled magnitude in the recent history of Northern Ireland.
Tony Blair
[On Badlands (1973)] I tried to keep the 1950s to a bare minimum. Nostalgia is a powerful feeling; it can drown out anything. I wanted the picture to set up like a fairy tale, outside time, like Treasure Island. I hoped this would, among other things, tak...
Terrence Malick
I was on this remote island a thousand miles off the coast of Kenya. The island didn`t have electricity, but some people had generators, and I went to someone`s house and there was a video of Desperately Seeking Susan (1985) playing. I think it was the on...

I saw Tina recently and she is so thin! I mean, I give her credit for staying in shape, but the women needs to eat some lunch! On her Gilligan`s Island co-star Tina Louise in 2004.
Dawn Wells
What we as a cast went through that first season mirrored what you saw on screen: people with no preexisting history, thrown together on an island; becoming a tight-knit bunch in the course of trying to make sense of this weird world. Then, to have these ...
Matthew Fox
On first reading the script for `Lost`: "When I first got the premise, it was limited at best and dreadful at worst. People crashing on an island - how many possible permutations can you get out of that?" (Esquire, July 2007)
Naveen Andrews
We got married on May 23 on top of a remote island off Mexico. I arrived by speedboat in a Morgane LeFay gown I bought for $300. We were there for about a week after - like a honeymoon! - On her nuptuals to 40 year old boyfriend/bassist Teddy Landau.
Michelle Branch
[on his late "Gilligan`s Island" (1964) co-star, Alan Hale Jr.] "He was a big, lovable man who made everybody feel good. He had a great time with his life."
Bob Denver
[About the kissing scene in The Island (2005)]: "I should re-shoot that scene right now. Two characters who have never even heard of sex are now trying it for the first time - you could have actually made it really funny and touching. I kept saying to [Sc...
Michael Bay
The sensibility of the film-maker infuses the project so people see a picture like Annie Hall (1977) and everyone thinks it`s so autobiographical. But I was not from Coney Island, I was not born under a Ferris wheel, my father never worked at a place that...
Woody Allen
I write my own action. There`s a scene in The Island (2005) - a highway chase where a pile of train wheels fall off a truck and smashes into the oncoming cars. That thought came to me as I was driving next to a truck carrying rail wheels. My mind is very ...
Michael Bay
[on Frank Capra] He was my favorite director. Woody Allen and I once sat in a restaurant and picked five pictures we`d take to an island. And much to my shock, he didn`t take a Capra picture and I took two. He took three Ingmar Bergman movies.
Burt Reynolds
This is such a wonderful thing for me to work with new people and get fresh ideas. I will keep everyone in the loop with everything, and I will let you know when Sunday Love has a new release date. (on leaving Island Records and addressing her fans on her...
Fefe Dobson
Dawn and I have never been close, we just never clicked. She was very much about pleasing everyone and I have never been that way. On her Gilligan`s Island co-star Dawn Wells.
Tina Louise
If you were stranded on a desert island, which four things would you need to survive? "I`d take a good book - Dante`s Divine Comedy, because you can never plumb the depths of that. I would also take a mask and snorkel so I could check out the fish, becaus...
Jamie Bamber
Lots of sci-fi movies are much ado about nothing. What I liked about [The Island (2005)] is that it`s a universal thing: we all want to live longer. But how selfish would you be to achieve that? You could get a liver, a heart, kidneys, essential things. B...
Michael Bay
On who she`d like to be stranded on a desert island with: "I`d say Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin. They come across as lovely - so warm, so bright and so talented. I imagine that we`d have great chats. And, if we ever ran out of things to say to each ot...
Natasha Bedingfield
I am happy I was born Swedish because this means having a tough education -- at least it was in my time. But I couldn`t live there, even when I was in my 20s. Sweden is too far from the rest of the world psychologically. There you feel confined on an isla...
Ingrid Bergman
You will see everything that`s in there. What is in there will change everything about how they live on the island. We`re erring on the side of giving away too much as opposed to being too vague.
Damon Lindelof
You know, because of the lack of budget, we had to find neighborhoods where time had stopped - kind of stuck in the `50s. And no place had that better than Staten Island.
Jason Alexander
You have to kill to survive. People have been doing it forever. I eat meat, and I eat fish. If I were on a deserted island I would need that to survive.
Benicio Del Toro
You can see when an actor gets bored: Their eyes go dead. I promised myself I`d never let that happen. If it does, I`ll go and live on a desert island for a year.
Anna Friel
Looking backward we could almost see, suspended with the most delicate equipoise above the flat little island, the ghostly shapes of those twin orbs of the Empire, the cricket ball and the blackball.
