Marcel Duchamp
The music technology scene is changing so fast it's hard to keep up.
Natasha Bedingfield
When you say things like, 'We have to wipe out the Taliban,' what does that mean? The Taliban is not a fixed number of people. The Taliban is an ideology that has sprung out of a history that, you know, America created anyway.
Arundhati Roy
The chess pieces are the block alphabet which shapes thoughts; and these thoughts, although making a visual design on the chess-board, express their beauty abstractly, like a poem... I have come to the personal conclusion that while all artists are not chess players, all chess players are artists.
I have forced myself to contradict myself in order to avoid conforming to my own taste.
All in all, the creative act is not performed by the artist alone; the spectator brings the work in contact with the external world by deciphering and interpreting its inner qualifications and thus adds his contribution to the creative act. This becomes even more obvious when posterity gives its final verdict and sometimes rehabilitates forgotten artists.
Sometimes when I'm swimming, I think that maybe someday I'll put my red Speedo up for auction. Or maybe I'll donate it to the Smithsonian. They can stuff it with two plums and a gherkin and put it on display.
David Duchovny
What this country needs is more free speech worth listening to.
Hansell B. Duckett

Jonathan Safran Foer
What is forgiven is usually well remembered.
Louis Dudek
There are two kinds of people; those who are always well and those who are always sick. Most of the evils of the world come from the first sort and most of the achievement from the second.
I say, don't try to fight your own battles because God will do it.
Joel Osteen
Rules of society are nothing; ones conscience is the umpire.
Madame Dudevant

James Duffecy
A dead atheist is someone who is all dressed up with no place to go.
I should just put it bluntly, because we're all sort of friends here now - it's exceedingly likely that my greatest success is behind me. Oh, so Jesus, what a thought! You know that's the kind of thought that could lead a person to start drinking gin at nine o'clock in the morning, and I don't want to go there.
Elizabeth Gilbert
Sundays, quiet islands on the tossing seas of life.
S. W. Duffield
The pain of love is the pain of being alive. It is a perpetual wound.
Maureen Duffy
Whoever has trusted a woman has trusted deceivers.
Hesiod
Pleasure's couch is virtue's grave.
Augustine J. Duganne
Pleasure which must be enjoyed at the expense of another's pain, can never be enjoyed by a worthy mind. Pleasure's couch is virtues grave.
I remember in high school trying to get home from water-polo practice in time so I could see Happy Days on television when it first came on, because I was so blown away by it. It was just such a cool thing.
Ted McGinley

John Foster Dulles
We will have to continue to improve our human intelligence system-something that was, unfortunately, lacking in the years which led up to September 11. This is going to be a continuing process of change.
John Sununu
Our capacity to retaliate must be, and is, massive in order to deter all forms of aggression.
The best way to win against the intolerable is to tolerate them, for this they have seldom dealt with. Your indulgence may soften their malice and open their eyes to more honorable ways.
Bryant H. McGill
Of all tasks of government the most basic is to protect its citizens against violence.
The ability to get to the verge without getting into the war is the necessary art. If you try to run away from it, if you are scared to go to the brink, you are lost.
I'm one of those people who thinks that changing one's hair is the only part of the body that you can change at will.
Hillary Clinton
Black literature is taught as sociology, as tolerance, not as a serious, rigorous art form.
Toni Morrison
The United Nations was not set up to be a reformatory. It was assumed that you would be good before you got in and not that being in would make you good.
Peace will never be won if men reserve for war their greatest efforts, Peace, too, requires well-directed and sustained sacrificial endeavor. Given that, we can, I believe, achieve the great goal of our foreign policy, that of enabling our people to enjoy in peace the blessings of liberty.
The politicians were talking themselves red, white and blue in the face.
Clare Boothe Luce

Jack Abramoff
So when you go to a set and you just fully trust everybody, you know how hard everybody's working, you know that the people doing it are good and have such a strong vision - that's exactly my experience on 'New Girl,' and what my experience on 'Veronica Mars' was like. Everybody was just so great.
