After 1980, you never heard reference to space again. Surface, the most convincing evidence of the descent into materialism, became the focus of design. Space disappeared.

Sister Mary chose that moment to come in with the tea. Satanist or not, she'd also found a plate and arranged some iced biscuits on it.

Neil Gaiman

I lifted my glass to my lips when suddenly I stopped and felt all my blood rush to my heart. This is what I heard: What's the theme of the novel you're working on? Truth, replied Pierre Villiers. What? exclaimed his friend. A succession of human beings caught just as they are.

Henri Barbusse

There are a lot of bleeding hearts around who just dont like to see people with helmets and guns. All I can say is go and bleed It is more important to keep law and order in society than to be worried about weak-kneed people Society must take every means at its disposal to defend itself against the emergence of a parallel power which defies the elected power.

Pierre Elliott Trudeau

The family must be democratized in that sense in which each individual within its bond shall be sustained in seeking and in maintaining the conditions of personality. No one human being to live solely for other's service..., but all to seek the utmost perfection of individual life as a contribution to the common life; this is the democratic ideal. There seems to be no other inherited institution in which this spiritual essence of democracy can be so clearly and so well realized as it may be and today often is in the private monogamic family.

Anna Garland Spencer, The Family

Friedrich Nietzsche

Actors are so fortunate. They can choose whether they will appear in tragedy or in comedy, whether they will suffer or make merry, laugh or shed tears. But in real life it is different. Most men and women are forced to perform parts for which they have no qualifications. Our Guildensterns play Hamlet for us, and our Hamlets have to jest like Prince Hal. The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast.

Oscar Wilde

There is the sky, which is all men's together.

Euripides

I tend to stay up late, not because I'm partying but because it's the only time of the day when I'm alone and don't have to be performing.

Jim Carrey

A bad review is even less important than whether it is raining in Patagonia.

Iris Murdoch

A society in which adults are estranged from the world of children, and often from their own childhood, tends to hear children's speech only as a foreign language, or as a lie. Children have been treated. as congenital fibbers, fakers and fantasisers.
