I find myself hoping a total end of all the unhappy divisions of mankind by party-spirit, which at best is but the madness of many for the gain of a few.

Joy has this in common with pain, that it robs people of reason.

Platen

Tupac Shakur

G. W. F. Hegel

I was born to be an explorer. There never was any decision to make. I coudn't be anything else and be happy,the desire to see new places, to discover new facts- the curiosity of life always has been a resistless driving force to me.

Paulo Coelho

I discovered that the horse is life itself, a metaphor but also an example of life's mystery and unpredictability, of life's generosity and beauty, a worthy object of repeated and ever changing contemplation.

Jane Smiley

Being an artist is dragging your innermost feelings out, giving a piece of yourself, no matter in which art form, in which medium.

Henry Rollins

You can lay down and die, or you can get up and fight, but that's it -- there's no turning back.
