I hope that no more groans of wounded men and women will ever go to the ear of the Great Spirit Chief above, and that all people may be one people.

I'm a Hollywood writer, so I put on my sports jacket and take off my brain.

Ben Hecht

It's not easy to define poetry.

Bob Dylan

This world is but a canvas to our imagination.

Henry David Thoreau

If there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person's point of view and see things from that person's angle as well as from your own.

Henry Ford

The art of storytelling is reaching its end because the epic side of truth, wisdom, is dying out.

Walter Benjamin

Would you live with ease, do what you should, and not what you please. Success has ruined many a man.

Benjamin Franklin

Patriotism is a lively sense of collective responsibility. Nationalism is a silly cock crowing on its own dunghill and calling for larger spurs and brighter beaks. I fear that nationalism is one of England's many spurious gifts to the world.

Richard Aldington

George A. Romero

Gail Godwin

He was walking into Faerie, in search of a fallen star, with no idea how he would find the star, nor how to keep himself safe and whole as he tried. He looked back and fancied that he could see the lights of Wall behind him, wavering and glimmering as if in a heat-haze, but still inviting.

Neil Gaiman

I don't find the technology threatening. A lot of people my age, my generation, find it difficult to immerse themselves. But I would never preclude the idea of using any technology if I thought it suited the end result.
