“Loneliness is emptiness, but happiness is you.”

“For those who are poor in happiness, each time is a first time; happiness never becomes a habit.”

“Always remember to smile and look up at what you got in life.”

“Keep smiling, because life is a beautiful thing and there’s so much to smile about.”

“Every action has its pleasures and its price.”

“Behind every sweet smile, there is a bitter sadness that no one can see and feel.”

“It is better to risk saving a guilty person than to condemn an innocent one.”

“It is more pleasant and useful to go through the 'experience of the revolution' than to write about it. ” 

“In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider.”

“I enjoy smaller projects, especially by newcomers, where there is more energy than on bigger productions. And there’s the pleasure of seeing the final result.”

Pleasure is the flower that fades, remembrance is the lasting perfume.

“Wisdom is doing now what you are going to be happy with later on” 

“Dreaming is very pleasant as long as you are not forced to put your dreams into practice.”

“anything becomes a pleasure if one does it too often,” 

“We are punished for our refusals. Every impulse that we strive to strangle broods in the mind and poisons us. The body sins once, and has done with its sin, for action is a mode of purification. Nothing remains then but the recollection of a pleasure, or the luxury of a regret. The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself, with desire for what its monstrous laws have made monstrous and unlawful. It has been said that the great events of the world take place in the brain. It is in the brain, and the brain only, that the great sins of the world take place also.” 

“Believe me, no civilized man ever regrets a pleasure, and no uncivilized man ever knows what a pleasure is.” 

“I know he likes me. Of course I flatter him dreadfully. I find a strange pleasure in saying things to him that I know I shall be sorry for having said...Then I feel, Harry, that I have given away my whole soul to someone who treats it as if it were a flower to put in his coat, a bit of decoration to charm his vanity, an ornament for a summer's day.” 

“When I like people immensely I never tell their names to anyone. It is like surrendering a part of them. I have grown to love secrecy. It seems to be the one thing that can make modern life mysterious or marvelous to us. The commonest thing is delightful if one only hides it. When I leave town now I never tell my people where I am going. If I did, I would lose all my pleasure. It is a silly habit, I daresay, but somehow it seems to bring a great deal of romance into one's life.” 

“A man who is master of himself can end a sorrow as easily as he can invent a pleasure.” 

There are more pleasant things to do than beat up people.

“The more pleasure a universe can yield, other things being equal, the more beneficent and generous is its general nature; the more pains its constitution involves, the darker and more malign its total temper. To deny this would seem impossible, yet it is done daily; for there is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition; and candor and a sense of justice are, in such a case, the first things lost.”

“A string of excited, fugitive, miscellaneous pleasures is not happiness; happiness resides in imaginative reflection and judgment, when the picture of one’s life, or of human life, as it truly has been or is, satisfies the will, and is gladly accepted.”

The film studios learned to our dismay but to their pleasure that if they spent $200 million making a film they could make half a billion on it. So they were not interested anymore in quality films... They can't afford to be that risky at those prices. Consequently you're getting a lot of remakes, sequels, dopey comedies full of toilet jokes...
