Famous quotes by Sela Ward:

"I certainly don't think we got the coverage that we need or the attention or the realization that Mississippi is in dire straits and in the condition it is."

"Mississippi desperately needs it. We don't have the luxury of oil companies behind us like Louisiana. We're still the poorest state in the nation,"

"I feel like only now in my life do I really get it -- do I feel that sense of calm. And I feel very grounded. I feel much more confident. I feel, you know, sexier, more intelligent, more to offer, more wisdom, more life experience to draw from."

"So far, my forties have been the best time of my life. If I can hold a banner for women in their forties that says life isn't over and sexiness isn't over, then great."

"I'm thrilled to be a part of Mississippi Rising, ... as it will raise much-needed funds for the recovery efforts that lie ahead. Mississippi's gown may be torn and tattered, but she will prevail."

"100 miles an hour."

"From a morality point of view, I wouldn't even go near, ... But in terms of making an interesting show, I'm sure they'll have to struggle with it."

"With so much focus on New Orleans, the important thing to remember is the dire straits in Mississippi, ... We wanted to show how much help we need and how people can help."

"A celebrity can help put a spotlight on a problem, a crisis and a need, ... I'll be sending a check to the Salvation Army. I'm going to do whatever I can."

"He gets to say all of the things that everybody wishes they could say. The irreverence of the character, and he is gorgeous."

"However, most of my part, I play a pediatrician, and most of my role had to do with being in another place, staying at the hospital and trying to save kids and stay until people could come. So, it was more based on reality."

"Yes and our obsession with youth in our culture and how we, women lie about their age after 35 obsessively and no one wants to let anyone know they're getting older, et cetera."

"You do become very close like a family but because you see each other for such an intense period of time on the set everyday. You really don't end up socializing that much."

"I always carry Evian bottle and sunscreen."

"Most of the press is sent to my publicist so I do see most of what is written about me."

"And so I was doing that and starving and somebody said you should model and I ran when they told me how much money you could make and I did a television commercial the first job."

"I would consider a half hour sitcom if the script was good."

"I have decided not to do the spa. Too time consuming."

"I use products from my dermatologist but the best things you can do for your skin, are not smoke always use sunscreen and drink a lot of water."

"As for ABC you can't take it personally. We had three good years."

She erases the scars every time
Even when her feelings blow up in her mind
She dances to the symphony of galaxies
Illusions of all secrets like chemical hymns
Worthless conductor gives the rhyme
Let there be light
Riddles and distortions in slow motion
The wrinkles of creation, the crash of the future
Love affair isn't fair
The tales of her dreams always dismissed
Don t waste all the time
Asking how, when or why
Take your wings and fly
Wings to fly
High
Love every day of your life
My words, my signs, ain't it enough?
Trying to reach what's beyond
Maybe we can travel cross space and time
But we ll never find the key of paradise
Wings to fly
Right now towards the sky
Love every day of your life
Take your wings and fly

Maybe a life time
Could be shorter than a rhyme
Longer than a moment
Longer than a sigh
The measure of a dream
Beyond infinity
Against the spell of time
You know you cannot fight
It doesn't matter what you do
You cannot hide
You're a slave of fortune
You want glory and fame
You want to be a legend
To be the richest man
But money cannot buy
The day you're gonna die
Against the spell of time
You know you cannot fight
It doesn't matter what you do
You cannot hide
Oh, we are like grains of sand
We are the drops in the ocean
Oh, we are like grains of sand

Seems to me my life is turning cold just like snow
Since I met something I didn't know
It came to me without even saying hello
You'll be my slave wherever you go
So I looked deep in its eyes
And though: "Hey, you look nice"
Soon it ran into my life
I couldn't live without sacrifice, and feeling high
All my life I've been trying to hide (trying to hide)
Now that I met you, I can no longer win
Enemy within (enemy within...)
Thoughts in my mind keep rising but they're always the same
Someone help me, I need you to see I'll go insane
Hard to fight a war all alone
Ugliest one I've never known
Now it's easy to see
My enemy is only me, is only me!
All my life I've been trying to hide (trying to hide)
Now that I met you, can you just leave me be?
All my life I've been trying to hide (trying to hide)
Now that I met you, I can no longer win
All my life I've been trying to hide (trying to hide)
Now that I met you, I can no longer win
Enemy within!
Enemy within!
Enemy within!

Beyond the nights of running centuries
I'm looking for my precious bride
Must say, Take care and run away from me!
Visions from past come by
Feel it before
Memories of the past have come
Seems I'm your dream
Someday you'll be my queen
My ground breaks down
I see the storm now
The lonely souls
Make love tonight
Feel it before
The anger has gone
Oh endless romance
Love of my time never hunting skies
Oh endless romance
Beyond the rights of this century
I'm searching for my precious bride
Doesn't matter what they strangled inside me

Your life seems crystal
Around my mesmerized soul
Don't try to fool me
I know it's part of the show
You know, you take me
To ethereal places
Your claims are foolish
My tears are out of control
You know, don't take my faith
To ethereal places
Here's my winter
Frozen and dry
I am freezing
In your arms
No matter how, it turns to snow
Your words are crap, here comes the ones
Oh, you know, you take me
To ethereal places
Be my chain, be my gain, turn into shades!

Years of evolution
Guided by the wisdom of time
In seconds they want perfection
Defying what’s divine
Freaks in the night
Monsters born to die
Labelled family tree
Laboratory secrecy
All in the name
Of fortune and fame
Technology
In service of vanity
Who are you to control
Unborn souls?
As long as nature calls
Science just ignores
The right to live
Live and let live
Don’t you cross the line
The line between
Wrong and right
Nightmare and dream
Please, change your conception
You call it experience, I think it’s a crime
The cell has a soul connection

Wish this time you’re really leaving
Pack your bags and go away
You know time will be the healer
We have no more games to play
Angles (will) bring my smile again
For you cried and died some day
And I’ll show you how our love can make it true
The stars will shine again for you
And the sun will fire a light against the moon
If words ain’t enough for you
So change your old life, make a movie, spread the peace
Just trying to be pleased
So change your old life, just spread in the peace and
don’t tell lies
Cos I don’t deserve it
You must know that the night is long
It’s Monday, 2 A.M.
And I cannot sleep tonight
It seems like I’m traveling trough the time
How can you keep this pride inside?
I’ll tell you what you couldn’t say
When I close my eyes the scenes of this poor life
Become a movie inside
A terrifying, romantic, funny book
Just like our crazy way of life
I’ll be by your side
Under hell or stormy skies
Down any road you choose to roam!
So change your old life, just spread the peace and
don’t tell lies
Cos I don’t deserve it
When you think you’ve found
All the answers… your life has already

Did you really love me?
Did you really need me?
Or were you just using me?
I never felt so used, I wont go back to you. So leave me alone.
I wasn't good enough, it was never about us. So leave me alone.
I've had enough of your kiss.
The touch of your hand, I won't miss.
I've been wrapped up in all your crazy ways.
I'm caught up in your web of lies.
Gonna cut myself loose and say goodbye.
Bye. Bye. I don't want you. I don't need you...
I never felt so used, I wont go back to you. So leave me alone.
I wasn't good enough, it was never about us. So leave me alone.
Did you really love me?
Did you really need me?

Do you remember how you were so kind?
Brought us joy, truth and peace of mind
But all these rotten minds and devastated hearts
Seem to be slowly tearing us apart
Cry! Your noble child makes you cry
Die! And now it helps you die
My mother,
I would like to say that I will pray for better days
The son you once loved now betrays
Now I trace and crawl right into your veins
And I don't give a shit about your pain
I am the cancer that makes you so weak
For mass destruction, war and lies I seek
Cry! Your noble child makes you cry
Die! And now it helps you die
My mother,
I would like to say that I will pray for better days
The son you once loved now betrays
My mother,
I would like to say that I will pray for better days
The son you once loved now betrays
My mother,
I would like to say that I will pray...

My empty mind wanders near by
While my bodyÂ's still sleeping tight
All my strength lives in this glass
I must forget the past
And now the rain falls from my eyes
While the sun shines
Dark clouds are no longer in the sky
But inside this chest of mine
In my bad dreams
I am drowning
And drinking to ease my mind
ItÂ's my heart that is going blind
All of my faith
Is now fading
I feel that weÂ've reached the end
And IÂ'll never see you again
(Female voice): I hope you understand why things went wrong, I cannot tell
EverythingÂ's fine for me, but I canÂ't help you on your lonely hell
In my bad dreams
I am drowning
And drinking to ease my mind (to ease my mind)
ItÂ's my heart that is going blind
All of my faith (all of my faith)
Is now fading
I feel that weÂ've reached the end

Since the first man got wisdom
Glorious taste had a price
Innocence forever lost in the birth of the mankind
Now they don't have any reason
They're spreading evil and lies
Showing us the way without banishment from paradise
It's a no way out game
So stupid like the majors say
Don't give it away
Really trust in your way
By the chains we could break
Oh, we have to pray
For the illusions that they made
With no reason why, we don't need disguise
The eminence is clear, our freedom isn't real
It's a no way out game
So stupid like tv spams
Don't give it away
Really find your own way
Through the chains we should break
Oh, the world has to pay
For the stupid game they play
Whose majors always say
We don't need the right
Its only fashion, near i feel it
Oh, we have to pray
For the illusions that they made
With no reason why, we don't need disguise
The eminence is clear, our freedom...
With no reason why, we don't need disguise

Now our time is so cold
But I believe
In a better future, which is rising today
We travel through heavens
We dance with the angels
Our stupid pride might hurt us again
You just need to pay or give your soul
Here, you just need to take an oath
Live like a whisper down on me
Try to live outside my sins
Close to your biggest ambition
Close to move mountains
Close to ruin and destruction
Close to move mountains
A flash of bright light starts to shine again
Navigating through darkness
You will always be the same
Raining or snowing, raining or snowing
Travel to another place
Where you might try to change
You donÂ't need to bring your faith along
Here youÂ're free to try your best alone
Live like a shining star above me
Try to live outside my sins
Close to your biggest ambition
Close to move mountains
Close to ruin and destruction
Close to move mountainss
Will you ever say, will you ever trust me in the mountains?
Will you follow me and walk behind my steps in the mountains?
Will you ever say, will you ever trust me in the mountains?
Will you follow me and walk behind my steps in the mountains?
Will you ever say, will you ever trust me in the mountains?
Will you follow me and walk behind my steps in the mountains?
Will you ever say, will you ever trust me in the mountains?

Mother told me me, yes she told me
I'd meet girls like you
She also told me stay away
She'll fall in love with you
And just the other day
I heard them talking in the halls
About the jock that's goin around
Mommy's alright and daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
Just don't give yourself away
Away
Whatever happened to all this seasons
Loser of the year
Everytime I got to thinkin
Then they'd disappear
And then I come home
Mom and dad are fuckin' on the couch
Rollin numbers, rock n' rollin
And cheap tricks bouncin off the ceilin
Mommys alright and daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
Yeah
Mommy's alright and daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
Just don't give yourself away
Away yeah
Surrender (Surrender)
Surrender (Surrender)
Surrender (Surrender)
Surrender
Mommys alright and daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
Just don't give yourself away
Away
Mommys alright and daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Mommys alright and daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender Surrender Surrender
Mommys alright and daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird

I know every question has an answer
I know every creature has a creator
I know every child born has a father
Maybe it's time to see what you have never seen

ThereÂ's a sacred bird living in the temple in Heliopolis
His name is Phoenix and he perishes in a nest of gnosis
He symbolizes the rising sun, the day of eternal rebirth
The fable tells, every hundred years, he burns himself from inside
But each time a new bird renews himself, heÂ's the only one
It flutters around us, swift as light
This story shows me what a life can be
Keeper of fire the Phoenix shall live
Fly away and touch my mind, spreading love all around
You gave me reasons to live
This story shows me what a life can be
Keeper of fire the Phoenix shall live
Fly away and touch my mind, spreading love all around
You gave me reasons to live
You gave me reasons to live

Increase your awareness of the signs
Look for the messages that comes to you every day
Your consciousness in shape
That you can take
Advantage of the windows of
Grace and joy, as they open
No matter how subtle or quiet they may be
Find this place where most of us cloud
Fall down
Show how the energy, of the weak we've met, now will give us
All the support we need
Falling
From this plastic world, you're living in
And I hope you take, this feeling from below
Regardless if you are close or not
Look for the messages that follow you every day
Our consciousness in shape
Our wish is that by
Bringing knowledge to you
Your future path, will come true
You may increase both your own and the world's love
Find this place where most of us could
Fall down
Show how the energy, of the weak we've met, now will give us,
All the support we need
Falling
From this plastic world, you're living in
And I hope you catch, this feeling from below
Hold every person close to your heart
Cos someday you might wake up and realize
That you have, lost a God's prize
Don't gain the world and loose your soul

Our thoughts and acts should be starting right away
Revolution seems to be only way
If you join us in this fight, you’ll realize
Every man like you
Live in a world full of doom
You might know that your good vibe always changed my
mind
Just to pass away feeling fine
Collapsed by burocracy and capitalism we won’t last
‘til judgment day
Sometimes we don’t understand their minds
Sometimes we can’t get away from dirty fights
Why do we have try?!
If they don’t mind, and don’t care about all those
lives?!
The world is falling down
Today before our lives
I can see there’s corruption all around
Children will not obey their parents from now on every
Wants to rip their guilt and its pretty clear that is
not something good
“Dream on and you’ll be free of spirit... fight and
you’ll be free in life”.
Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara (1928-1967)
It’s time to fight against these majors seed
Time to think ‘bout what we want in the future
Re-unite our thoughts of human kind
Re-unite our souls, which is gods try
A lifetime has passed and our children are so blessed
And thank us for leaving greed buried deep in the past
We are so glad that our intentions were understood
By the gates angles that forever will last in ourselves
Doesn’t matter from where you are
I’m angel like you, I’m blessed, I’m divine
Doesn’t matter if you’re African
Doesn’t matter if you’re American
Life is just one and we shall live together
Life is just one and we shall return

Angels and demons begin to fight
There's a war in the sky
Start to pray for your soul
The prophet's delight and the sinners' disgrace
Prepare for the judgement of the human race
Because the time has come
Praise God
Please believe in the prophecy time to repent
The fallen angels know they're gonna die
For the glory of light
The darkness is gone
Triumph and justice are showing the way
Welcome to the future in the promised land
Eternal dawn
Praise God
Please believe in the prophecy
Praise God
The rain of fire will purify the land
