Ah, ah, thy beauty! like a beast it bites, Stings like an adder, like an arrow smites.

It is more than likely that the brain itself is, in origin and development, only a sort of great clot of genital fluid held in suspense or reserved. This hypothesis would explain the enormous content of the brain as a maker or presenter of images.

Ezra Pound

I don't know what effect these men will have upon the enemy, but, by God, they terrify me.

Duke of Wellington Arthur Welles

Politics is the gizzard of society, full of gut and gravel.

Henry David Thoreau

You'll live. Only the best get killed.

Charles de Gaulle

It is ironic that the one thing that all religions recognize as separating us from our creator, our very self-consciousness, is also the one thing that divides us from our fellow creatures. It was a bitter birthday present from evolution.

Annie Dillard

I will never say never, but I will say never to doing the more typical romantic comedies. You know, unless I'm getting audited and I'm on the street and I desperately need some dough and that's the only thing that I'm getting.

Christian Bale

It is medicine, not scenery, for which a sick man must go searching.

Seneca (Seneca the Elder)

Some are reputed sick and some are not. It often happens that the sicker man is the nurse to the sounder.

Henry David Thoreau

Your bad love of yourselves makes solitude a prison to you.

Friedrich Nietzsche

I wouldn't wish the eighties on anyone, it was the time when all that was rotten bubbled to the surface. If you were not at the receiving end of this mayhem you could be unaware of it. It was possible to live through the decade preoccupied by the mortgage and the pence you saved on your income tax. It was also possible for those of us who saw what was happening to turn our eyes in a different direction; but what, in another decade, had been a trip to the clap clinic was now a trip to the mortuary.

Derek Jarman

After listening and getting to know more about you. Also, feeling a deep connection between us that goes beyond physical attraction. I'm beginning to feel for, so much more than the friendship that I waited to grow with you. I'm not going to try and rush things. However, I don't want to wait until it's to late.

Jonathan Anthony Burkett

A man may feel so completely thwarted that he seeks no form of satisfaction, but only distraction and oblivion. He then becomes a devotee of pleasure. That is to say, he seeks to make life bearable by becoming less alive. Drunkenness, for example, is temporary suicide.

Bertrand Russell
