Life is a beautiful, magnificent thing, even to a jellyfish... The trouble is you won't fight. You've given up. But there's something just as inevitable as death. And that's life. Think of the power of the universe — turning the Earth, growing the trees. That's the same power within you — if you'll only have the courage and the will to use it. (Charlie Chaplin)
to have the courage – отважиться/иметь смелость

I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person. (Audrey Hepburn)
to make someone laugh – заставить кого-то смеяться

I have every sympathy for writers. It's a mystery to me what they do. I can edit. I can cross out and say, 'I'm not saying that' or, 'How about we move this to here? Wouldn't that make that bit of the story better?' But where any of it comes from is beyond me. I will never write a play or a novel. (Alan Rickman)
to write a play/novel – написать пьесу/роман

I believe that all great art holds the power to dissolve things: time, distance, difference, injustice, alienation, despair. I believe that all great art holds the power to mend things: join, comfort, inspire hope in fellowship, reconcile us to ourselves. Art is good for my soul precisely because it reminds me that we have souls in the first place. (Tilda Swinton)
to hold the power – иметь силу/власть над чем-либо

I'm interested in the spirits of people. In the theatre, there's the acting part of acting - and I'm not saying that can't be great - and there's the essence. To explore that essence, you need a key, a look, a gesture, an insight that unlocks the person's soul. (Ralph Fiennes)
to be interested in – быть заинтересованным/интересоваться чем-то

I think that you find your own way. You have your own rules. You have your own understanding of yourself, and that's what you're going to count on. In the end, it's what feels right to you. Not what your mother told you. Not what some actress told you. Not what anybody else told you but the still, small voice. (Meryl Streep)
to count on something/someone – рассчитывать на что-либо/кого-либо

When you play a character that is so emotionally closed there are times when you ask yourself if you are doing enough and if it's reading. That is where you have a director, who is the barometer of what you are doing. (Gary Oldman)
to be emotionally closed – быть замкнутым/эмоционально закрытым

I think books are like people, in the sense that they'll turn up in your life when you most need them. I firmly believe there are books whose greatness actually enables you to live, to do something. And sometimes, human beings need story and narrative more than they need nourishment and food. (Emma Thompson)
to turn up in someone’s life – возникнуть/появиться в чьей-то жизни

Regret isn't good. Every decision one makes in life is made for a reason or another. Whenever something bad happens, I go, 'This is happening for a reason', or, 'This is going to teach me something'. (Kate Winslet)
to make a decision – принять решение

I like to think that we’re revolving on this planet and revolving through the galaxy. I love having context that’s so much bigger than I can fathom. It’s fantastic to realise how insignificant you are. (Benedict Cumberbatch)
to fathom something – измерять глубину чего-либо
