Donna Stelling-Gurn…

A friend dispensed some unsolicited dating advice the other night, telling me that if I'm on a first date, I probably shouldn't lead with a rant about how Russia has a monopoly on nuclear-powered icebreakers. – Jared WalczakRate it:
A special effect is a tool, a means of telling a story. A special effect without a story is a pretty boring thing. – George LucasRate it:
Censorship is telling a man he can't have a steak just because a baby can't chew it. – Mark TwainRate it:
Even though Anne was almost ten years younger than I was, at times I almost had the inclination to tell her things that were very private. I know that she valued hearing about such intimacies. She asked me very personal questions on a number of occasions. I resisted telling her everything because I knew she was keeping a diary and I didn’t want her to write about personal matters, which I might have revealed. – Bep VoskuijlRate it:
Hair loss is God's way of telling me I'm human. – Bruce WillisRate it:
I am not telling you to embrace the truth, I am telling you to embrace yourself. – Goa KerleRate it:
I began by telling the president that there was a cancer growing on the presidency and that if the cancer was not removed ... the president himself would be killed by it. – John DeanRate it:
I had a lot of sleepless nights -- I felt like God was telling me: 'I didn't bring you through all of this for nothing,'. – Kim CarterRate it:
I have been thinking that I would make a proposition to my Republican friends... that if they will stop telling lies about the Democrats, we will stop telling the truth about them. – Adlai E. Jr. StevensonRate it:
I like beautiful melodies telling me terrible things. – Tom WaitsRate it:
I shall be telling this with a sigh somewhere ages and ages hence. Two roads diverged in a wood, and I --I took the one less traveled by and that has made all the difference. – Robert FrostRate it:
I'm telling you where the road is out. I'm telling you where, as you're driving, you're going to go into water and it looks like it might only be three inches deep, but you and your car are going to go down, now you want to go here or you want to be concerned about who's giving you the message? – Bill CosbyRate it:
May God forgive you for telling the truth to those who are not ready to hear it. – Mwanandeke KindemboRate it:
Pretty much all the honest truth-telling there is in the world is done by children. – Oliver Wendell HolmesRate it:
Telling us to obey instinct is like telling us to obey 'people.' People say different things so do instincts. Our instincts are at war.... Each instinct, if you listen to it, will claim to be gratified at the expense of the rest.... – C. S. LewisRate it:
That’s like someone telling you that you should sit and have a bowel movement, covered of course, in the middle of two gates where people can see you. – Hayley PicchiniRate it:
The fact regularly faced in telling people first the odd truths is that some don’t openly reflect, but most outrightly reject; and when it turns out to be correct publicly, they accept only to give often its credit to a person who desires but doesn’t deserve respect. – Anuj SomanyRate it:
They’re telling her story as a woman aside from the murders. Kate is going to capture Sharon’s heart, feeling and attitude, there is no one that’s ever going to look like Sharon. – Sharon TateRate it:
This is why I loved the support groups so much. If people thought you were dying, they gave you their full attention. If this might be the last time they saw you, they really saw you… People listened instead of just waiting for their turn to speak. And when they spoke, they weren't telling you a story. When the two of you talked, you were building something, and afterward you were both different than before. – Chuck Palahniuk, Fight ClubRate it:
While I was shooting for Kahaani …I got a call from the director of Coffee House – Gurbir Singh. He asked me whether I was ready to take up a role in his film. Not many people are aware that Gurbirji was the person who offered me my first role in television – for a show called Dastoor. Those days I was a greenhorn, but still he had faith in my capabilities and offered me the role. Since the offer of Coffee House came from him, I definitely had to give it a good thought. Plus, many times it has happened in my life – and perhaps in everyone's life – while talking to someone about a project, an instinct tells you that it is something good for you. There may apparently be no rhyme or reason, but you do sense an inner voice telling you that it will be good. I got the same feeling with this film. Plus my saying yes also meant me saying thank you to him for restoring his faith in me. – Sakshi TanwarRate it:
Whoever comes for discussion on channels seems merely interested in telling that more testing to be done and on the need of mask, medicine, vaccines and ventilators. It reeks out as they are getting a commission for the promotion of these products. – Ground ZeroRate it:
Quit telling us to forget the past and never look back. We learned from the past, gained wisdom from the past that we apply every day in the process of living. If we forget the past, we’ll forget who we are since that’s where we came from. – RJ IntindolaRate it:
Sometimes our heart goes rogue and makes decisions without even telling us or letting us know in advance. – RJ IntindolaRate it:
In times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act. – George OrwellRate it:
