Takashi Miike Japanese of my generation try to get through life without stepping on anyone’s toes; in some ways that’s unnatural and stressful. The yakuza are different: They live short lives but live and die on their own terms – it’s exciting to portray that. – Takashi Miike
Tacitus Abuse if you slight it, will gradually die away; but if you show yourself irritated, you will be thought to have deserved it. – Tacitus
T J Miller I was the Head Boy of East High School in 1999. I represent 303 – the area code, not the band – Mile High, until I die. I’m 31, a comedian; I juggle, but I don’t glove it. I think waxed mustaches run a very thin line between hipster and 1800s barkeep. – T J Miller
T C Boyle In previous generations, there was purpose; you had to die, but there was God, and literature and culture would go on. Now, there is no God, and our species is imminently doomed, so there is no purpose. We get up, raise families, have bank accounts, fix our teeth and everything else. But really, there is utterly no purpose except to be alive. – T C Boyle
Sylvie Guillem If we keep on destroying fish, there won’t be any left. If the oceans die, we all die. It’s as simple as that. – Sylvie Guillem
Sylvia Kristel You’re much better off as a love goddess to die around the age of 40. – Sylvia Kristel
Suzanne Somers I have my hormones balanced. Most doctors are giving women synthetic hormones, which just eliminate the symptoms, but it’s doing nothing to actually replace the hormones you have lost. Without our hormones we die. – Suzanne Somers
Suzanne Collins I loved ‘A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.’ I read it later as an adult, but I loved ‘We Have Always Lived in a Castle.’ And that brings you around to ‘The Lottery.’ You can’t pretend – it’s a lottery in which you draw a name and people die. That’s a short story, but it’s such an incredible short story. – Suzanne Collins
Susan B Anthony To think, I have had more than 60 years of hard struggle for a little liberty, and then to die without it seems so cruel. – Susan B Anthony
Susan B Anthony I don’t want to die as long as I can work; the minute I can not, I want to go. – Susan B Anthony
