How can they expect a harvest of thought who have not had the seed time of character.

Henry David Thoreau

Television could perform a great service in mass education, but there's no indication its sponsors have anything like this on their minds.

Tallulah Bankhead

It is easier to forgive an enemy than a friend.

Madame Dorothe Deluzy

I had this wild imagination. I was never me. All my childhood photos, I'm in fancy dress, playing a Russian refuge or Marvelous Mad Madam Mim.

Juno Temple

I hate most of what constitutes rock music, which is basically middle-aged crap.

Sting

Life is but a momentary glimpse of the wonder of this astonishing universe, and it is sad to see so many dreaming it away on spiritual fantasy.

Andy Mulcahy

I think that I am better than the people who are trying to reform me.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

To emphasize only the beautiful seems to me to be like a mathematical system that only concerns itself with positive numbers.

Paul Klee

I don't know why I feel so wounded with Kartik's obvious infatuation with Pippa. There's no romance between us. There's nothing that tethers us but this dark secret neither of us wants. It's not Kartik's longing that hurts. It's my own. It's knowing that I'll never have what she has--a beauty so powerful it brings things to you. I fear I will always have to chase things I want. I'll always have to wonder whether I'm truly wanted or whether I've just been settled for.

Libba Bray
