Williams Emmanuel Quotes
No venom is more poisonous than the venom from the lips of a fool
No matter how long the truth is hid, its smell will later one day later be percieved in the market place
No fall exists without pride
The legs of the lame are not equal, so are words in the lips of liars
He who owes a debt is caught in a net.
A man that throws fire in anger where his clothes are kept in his home should expect securing shelter behind the bridge.
Only fools bite the fingers that fed them
Where greed lie at the top, poverty must surely be seen at the grassroot.
Where a smoke is seen, there was once there, an advent of fire
He who tests the depth of the sea with both feet will drown

Really I don't like human nature unless all candied over with art.
It's not just the 'Grammys' that I've pulled out of. I also pulled out of the English awards as well. The reason that I wanted to pull out was because I believe very much that the music industry as a whole is mainly concerned with material success.
When I was playing before I retired, I never really understood the appreciation and the respect that people gave me. People had treated me like a god or something, and that was very embarrassing.
I love acting. It's my playground, it let's me explore. But my happiness in this world - my level of peace - is never going to be dictated by acting.
Sometimes I make very selfish choices like I did 'Once Upon A Time' for my inner 8-year-old and my hypothetical future child. I've done some movies because I would regret them if I didn't, but other projects I've done because they've scared me or if I felt I needed to do a big romantic comedy to help me professionally.
Solitude is better than the society of evil persons.
