After this, the rules of many events of this level introduced a rule that participants should not use electronic cigarettes.

54. Most famous quotes

I believe that it is still possible to save our planet and all its inhabitants.

I don’t like school: they force you to focus on what you don’t want to know.

The first kiss was the most disgusting feeling of my life. This girl managed to put so much saliva into my mouth that later, when it was all over, thank God, I walked and spat, probably for a couple of blocks.

The joy of fame passes quite quickly and you understand that the main reward is not that every moth on the street suddenly began to recognize you, but that your films will remain after your death.

It seems to me that main problem America is that it is trying to establish its own rules in those countries about which it knows absolutely nothing.

Fame is like a universal pass: wherever you want, you can go.

I don't understand why so few people make films today. After all, now anyone can buy a digital camera and set up a filming studio in the garage.
