41. Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry. You don't know how lovely you are
3 DAYS TO CHRISTMAS!!! :D AAAH I'm so excited this year, I don't even know why! Lmao. It's probably because of all the snow... every year I've wanted a white christmas and living in Britain you only tend to get snow two days in the year, but this is amaaaazing! :D I love love love LOOVE snow, and I'v never known it to be this thick and last so long... I'll be a very happy bunny if it's still around on Christmas day :) Whilst school's out I hope to start posting a lot more, cause I've got sooo much graphics ready to be uploaded its unbelievable, but I think this may be my last post before Christmas as I doubt I'm going to have any time over the next few days to get on the computer... so I just wanna say Merry Christmas to everyone now unless I manage to get some posts done late at night over the next few days :) Ah god I'm babbling, sorry, I've had wayy too much caffiene today. On to the picspam...
For the latest challenge over at picspammy : end of year lists. Enjoy! :)

Actors
"I think actors have to psychologically convince themselves 'This is what I'm gonna do for the rest of my life', because once you start having a Plan B, then you're going to say, 'Well, this is too rough, and I'm gonna go this way'. Once you get a little work, it's so great that you just want more. It's like an addiction, you know?"
"My fears are not taking risks. So as a result, I think that I do have fear, but I like to think that I don't. Because, really, what are the consequences of failure? It doesn't manifest itself in anything other than how you perceive yourself or how you think others perceive you, which is completely irrelevant."
"One of the nicest privileges as an actor is to know that you can move people in one moment, make them think about their lives, or make them laugh or make them cry or make them understand something. Or just make them feel something, because I think so many of us, including myself, spend too much time not feeling enough, you know?”
"I don't even like to sleep - I feel as if there's too much to do.”
"My advice to an aspiring actor would be to never stop learning or working for what you want. Nothing comes easy, ever. If you want something, you have to work for it. By working for it I mean work on your craft, learn from people who have something to teach. It's just like anything else, practice makes perfect."
"Yeah, I'm just not into all of that. I see all the red carpet paparazzi stuff and I'm like, "Really? Do I have to?!" I like to work and I know that's part of the job. But you kind of take it in stride."
“He’s just dreamy! He’s just very awkward around the limelight… he get’s really nervous when people come up to him … gets nervous and stutters and stammers and doesn’t really know what to do. Oh, it’s so cute.” - Ashley Greene
Actresses
"I just want to live each moment, but it's kind of hard to do that when you are asked to analyse yourself constantly. But it's also good in that you are forced to think about things that you don't ordinarily think about. I think it's strange."
"I just do what feels right. I think the great thing about getting to do what I do is that you can try out being a different person without having to screw up your life to do it."
"Life is so hectic when you're running around."
"I guess I`ve sort of always wanted to be an actress, except when I was five, which, I did want to be the Queen of England."
"Your regrets aren't what you did, but what you didn't do. So I take every opportunity.”
"I love acting because I love to tell stories. I like being in movies that have a great story. I'm not so interested in being a Hollywood star. It's a job, you know. When you wake up at six in the morning every day for a week, it feels like hard work."
"I'm nice, and I show up on time."
"I've discovered as I've grown up that life is far more complicated than you think it is when you're a kid. It isn't just a straightforward fairytale.”
"To be happy, it first takes being comfortable being in your own shoes. The rest can work up from there.”

"Dear Holly, I don't have much time. I don't mean literally, I mean you're out buying ice cream and you'll be home soon. But I have a feeling this is the last letter, because there is only one thing left to tell you. It isn't to go down memory lane or make you buy a lamp, you can take care of yourself without any help from me. It's to tell you how much you move me, how you changed me. You made me a man, by loving me Holly. And for that, I am eternally grateful... literally. If you can promise me anything, promise me that whenever you're sad, or unsure, or you lose complete faith, that you'll try to see yourself through my eyes. Thank you for the honor of being my wife. I'm a man with no regrets. How lucky am I. You made my life, Holly. But I'm just one chapter in yours. There'll be more. I promise. So here it comes, the big one. Don't be afraid to fall in love again. Watch out for that signal, when life as you know it ends. P.S. I will always love you."
