Catherine Zeta-Jones

Looking out of my window this lovely spring morning I see an azalea in full bloom. No, no! I do not see that; though that is the only way I can describe what I see. That is a proposition, a sentence, a fact; but what I perceive is not proposition, sentence, fact, but only an image which I make intelligible in part by means of a statement of fact. This statement is abstract; but what I see is concrete.early 1900's

Ideas and philosophies have a shelf-life. They must be kept fresh and renewed or they will spoil. If left unattended, the same ideas and philosophies that once nourished you and helped you grow can poison you and make you sick. Become aware of new ideas that can refresh your way of life and be open to the fact that your old ideas and philosophies can work for you for some time, but when the shelf-life has passed, those ideas and philosophies could also harm you.

Friedrich Nietzsche, Dawn, "Seco

And as long as you are in any way ashamed before yourself, you do not yet belong with us.

Friedrich Nietzsche

America is not a blanket woven from one thread, one color, one cloth.

Jesse Jackson

We men are fascinated by the things we don't really understand. It gives us something to think and talk about: like females, they drive us nuts.

Criss Jami

I don't know yet whether I fully believe in fate, but certain things do happen in a man's life that he cannot explain.

David Gemmell

Further, for once, I like the idea that people who think I'm a constant voice for the furthering of the imagination have to see that interest in a more materialistic fashion.
