I find no sweeter fat than sticks to my own bones.

It is all very well to copy what one sees, but it is far better to draw what one now only sees in one's memory. That is a transformation in which imagination collaborates with memory.

Edgar Degas

I love going to movies. It's just big, it takes you away, you can escape into it.

Tom Welling

Salvatore Quasimodo

I have a hat. It is graceful and feminine and give me a certain dignity, as if I were attending a state funeral or something. Someday I may get up enough courage to wear it, instead of carrying it.

Erma Bombeck

It is absolutely essential that one should be neutral and not fall in love with the hypothesis.

David Douglass

I challenge you to make your life a masterpiece. I challenge you to join the ranks of those people who live what they teach, who walk their talk.

Tupac Shakur

Beauty is as relative as light and dark. Thus, there exists no beautiful woman, none at all, because you are never certain that a still far more beautiful woman will not appear and completely shame the supposed beauty of the first.

Paul Klee

I'm always improving and I want to get better and never hit a plateau. I find it an amazing adventure.

Nigel Kennedy
