Genre: Death, Rhyme, Relationship

 Oh sweet death, I’ve waited so long, my constant
companion, it never felt wrong.
You never have left me, been by my side.
I’ve looked for you always, not wanting to hide.

Your peace settles round me, life’s problems recede.
The darkness an ending, no fear not a need.
I await nothing further; all problems are gone.
A great spirit flows over, I’m enveloped in song.

I feel the brightness; it warms my skin.
My ancestors await me, all knowing I’ve been.
Their shouts are joyous, so fresh without sin.
The happiness surrounds me; I’ve forgot where I’d been.

Their love does fulfill me, Lord Jesus smiles down.
Heaven awaits me, it’s eternity no bound.

Genre: Rhyme, Relationship, Society

Motionless as I arise
Controlled and yet carried away
Lukewarm I’m caught up in the fray
Which language shall I speak today?

I’m not quite sure what meets the eye
Kindly be my alibi
And dwell on love
Or things that I despise?

Shallow Truths or Swells of Lies?
We’ll plunge out as the waves arrive
We’ll breathe in deep and close our eyes
As waters spiral to the skies.

Does anything I say make sense?
Is logic lost in language dense?
I watch my thoughts and say
That they aren’t me.

And to myself the thoughts reply;
A mirrored house of lies.
Loud voices pose as me
In deep disguise.

And all the while the vortex spins
And all the while the tides pull out
Conducive waters fill my mouth
A bolt strikes down the waterspout.

Motionless and unaffected
On new shores and disinfected
Dive…

I really don’t drink, I don’t do drugs. I feel like right now I’ve been given so many opportunities I don’t want to mess it up with those things … I think I was raised in a solidly upper-middle class family who had really strong values and excess was not one of the things that my family put up with. – On avoiding the hard partying young-star life style.

She is just divine. As a human being, she has basically accomplished everything that I want to do … It’s not that she just gets inside the character, she’s just absolutely at the center of all of her choices, of the truth of the character – On working with Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada…

Ryan Gosling

Born: November 12, 1980 in London, Ontario, Canada

It’s nice to be around people that have a sense of the world around them, that are, in general, more conscious and conscientious. It was important for me to get an outside look at America even though I grew up in Canada, it’s an incredible country and I love it, but it’s so close. It’s like being too close to a Monet or something. You have to move back. Going to New Zealand helped me to get a read on this place that the whole world was obsessed with.

Married to: Nick Offerman (20 September 2003 – present)

I didn’t get Will & Grace (1998) until I was almost 40. Had I listened to everybody else who kept saying, ‘Oh, there’s too much competition, you’ll never get an agent, you’ll never get a part, 90 percent of actors are out of work,” if I’d listened to that, if everybody listened to that, then nobody would leave the house and the world would come to a crashing halt.

When I went up there and accepted the [second] Emmy, I remembered that when I was about 20, a psychic told me I was going to win two Emmys that were going to be like bookends for playing a secretary on a sitcom. And I said, ‘I’m not going to do sitcoms. I’m a great actress and I’m going to change…

Cote de Pablo

Born: November 12, 1979 in Santiago, Chile

Coming from the theater I love the adrenalin rush from working on NCIS. You get home and you’re exhausted, but you feel like you’ve really worked. It’s such a masochistic thing. In one episode we were shooting boxed in a container from 7 in the morning to 12 at night. There’s gunfire in the container…We had to pretend the truck was moving so we had to keep ourselves moving the whole time. I remember my knees were all bruised up because I had to fall so many times. That was taxing on the body. – on doing stunts in NCIS.

Grace Kelly (1929–1982)

Married to:
Prince Rainier of Monaco (18 April 1956 – 14 September 1982) (her death) (3 children)

Before my marriage, I didn’t think about all the obligations there were awaiting me. My experience has proved useful and I think that I have a natural propensity to feel compassion for people and their problems.

(On Gary Cooper) He’s the one who taught me to relax during a scene and let the camera do some of the work. On the stage you have to emote not only for the front rows, but for the balcony too, and I’m afraid I overdid it. He taught me the camera is always in front row, and how to take it easy…

Radha Mitchell

Born: November 12, 1973 in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

I went through a phase of not wanting to watch any movies at all, and lately I’ve got back into watching films, I think because I meet people that make them all the time, and I feel like if I’ve seen their movie I know more about them, and it’s a better discussion to have. And in doing that I rekindled my love of movies.

Wallace Shawn

Born: November 12, 1943 in New York City, New York, USA

[in 2008, on working with André the Giant in The Princess Bride (1987)] Well, that, I did very much enjoy. He was marvelous. But there was something painful about his situation, because he already had lost some of his strength. Of course it was well-known that he could not live terribly long, because no one with his condition did. So it was all a bit poignant. But he was always very, very intelligent, and he was very kind to me, because I was quite afraid of certain things we had to do, and he was very, very nice to me. He was a fascinating person, because he had come from a small village in France and wanted to travel. And he quite consciously decided that in order to travel, his best option was to try to become…
