The light which puts out our eyes is darkness to us. Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star.

The aim of art, the aim of a life can only be to increase the sum of freedom and responsibility to be found in every man and in the world. It cannot, under any circumstances, be to reduce or suppress that freedom, even temporarily. No great work has ever been based on hatred and contempt. On the contrary, there is not a single true work of art that has not in the end added to the inner freedom of each person who has known and loved it.

Albert Camus

I have designed my style pantomimes as white ink drawings on black backgrounds, so that man's destiny appears as a thread lost in an endless labyrinth. I have tried to shed some gleams of light on the shadow of man startled by his anguish.

Marcel Marceau

You despise books; you whose lives are absorbed in the vanities of ambition, the pursuit of pleasure or indolence; but remember that all the known world, excepting only savage nations, is governed by books.

Voltaire

I write music with an exclamation point!

Richard Wagner

Life has its own hidden forces which you can only discover by living.

Søren Kierkegaard

The goal of all inanimate objects is to resist man and ultimately defeat him.

Russell Baker

My English text is chaste, and all licentious passages are left in the obscurity of a learned language.

Edward Gibbon

Eros will have naked bodies Friendship naked personalities.

C. S. Lewis

Truth is, you make albums, and some of those songs are hits, and some of the greatest hits albums have songs that weren't hits. You have a career, the reason why we're still around 10 years is that we do have successful songs.

Adam Duritz

I'm happy with my place in the firmament here. I like to produce movies and that's where I want to be.

Joel Silver

Just because you have a past with someone, doesn't mean you should have a future with them.

Robert Tew

Know what's weird? Day by day, nothing seems to change. But pretty soon, everything's different.

Bill Watterson
