What a deformed thief this fashion is

I am very lucky, I have a very tight group of friends and a very supportive family, and to this date no-one has ever sold a story on me.

Sienna Miller

Youth is a period of missed opportunities.

Cyril Connolly

Women must tell men always that they are the strong ones. They are the big, the strong, the wonderful. In truth, women are the strong ones. It is just my opinion, I am not a professor.

Coco Chanel

I have a map of the United States...actual size. It says, Scale: 1 mile = 1 mile. I spent last summer folding it. I also have a full size map of the world. I hardly ever unroll it.

Steven Wright

Success and failure are equally disastrous.

Tennessee Williams

Even the wise appear foolish before one who brings peace to another.

Phoenix Desmond

The organization controlling the material equipment of our everyday life is such that what in itself would enable us to construct it richly plunges us instead into a poverty of abundance, making alienation all the more intolerable as each convenience promises liberation and turns out to be only one more burden. We are condemned to slavery to the means of liberation.

Raoul Vaneigem

It was the shadow of Some one who had gone by long before: of Some one who had gone on far away quite out of reach, never, never to come back. It was bright to look at; and when the tiny woman showed it to the Princess, she was proud of it with all her heart, as a great, great, treasure. When the Princess had considered it a little while, she said to the tiny woman, And you keep watch over this, every day? And she cast down her eyes, and whispered, Yes. Then the Princess said, Remind me why. To which the other replied, that no one so good and so kind had ever passed that way, and that was why in the beginning. She said, too, that nobody missed it, that nobody was the worse for it, that Some one had gone on to those who were expecting him-- 'Some one was a man then?' interposed Maggy. Little Dorrit timidly said yes, she believed so; and resumed:'-- Had gone on to those who were expecting him, and that this remembrance was stolen or kept back from nobody. The Princess made answer, Ah! But when the cottager died it would be discovered there. The tiny woman told her No; when that time came, it would sink quietly into her own grave, and would never be found.

Charles Dickens

It was so much fun to have the freedom to wander America, with no assignments. For 25 or 30 years I never had an assignment. These were all stories I wanted to do myself.

Charles Kuralt

All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child.

Even as your body betrays you, your mind denies it.
