Don't let them tell us stories

Actors always talk about taking their work home and I always think: 'What are you on? You just turn it off. You are at work and then you go home.'

Bill Nighy

Sweet are the words of Love, sweeter his thoughts: Sweetest of all what Love nor says nor thinks.

Richard Garnett

He'd have given me rolling lands, Houses of marble, and billowing farms, Pearls, to trickle between my hands, Smoldering rubies, to circle my arms. You- you'd only a lilting song, Only a melody, happy and high, You were sudden and swift and strong- Never a thought for another had I. He'd have given me laces rare, Dresses that glimmered with frosty sheen, Shining ribbons to wrap my hair, Horses to draw me, as fine as a queen. You- you'd only to whistle low, Gayly I followed wherever you led. I took you, and I let him go- Somebody ought to examine my head!

Dorothy Parker, The Choice

Maurice Delort

James D. Watson

Like ultraviolet rays memory shows to each man in the book of life a script that invisibly and prophetically glosses the text.

Walter Benjamin

Give me the avowed, the erect, the manly foe, bold I can meet, perhaps may turn his blow! But of all plagues, good Heavens, thy wrath can send, save, save, oh save me from the candid friend!

George Canning

All the mathematical sciences are founded on relations between physical laws and laws of numbers, so that the aim of exact science is to reduce the problems of nature to the determination of quantities by operations with numbers.

James C. Maxwell

My rapier wit hides my inner pain.

Cassandra Clare

You can always tell who the pioneers are because they have arrows in their back and are lying face down in the dirt.

It was by design that we mostly used pictures that you could not necessarily see what was going on, and that didn't really focus in on the band, but instead focused in on a theme.
