Love is easy, and I love writing. You can't resist love. You get an idea, someone says something, and you're in love.

I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.

Orson Welles

Every man is guilty of all the good he didn't do.

Voltaire

The greatest failure is a person who never admits that he can be a failure.

Gerald. N. Weiskott

Starlets were always turning up dead in people's pools. They fished them out like goldfish. Nobody seemed to find it unusual that so many young, beautiful women wanted to die.

Jonathan Rosen

The most powerful relationship you will ever have is the relationship with yourself.

Steve Maraboli

Not that you lied to me but that I no longer believe you - that is what has distressed me.

Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good

Without lies humanity would perish of despair and boredom.

Anatole France

What charitable 1 percenters can't do is assume responsibility - America's national responsibilities: the care of its sick and its poor, the education of its young, the repair of its failing infrastructure, the repayment of its staggering war debts.

Stephen King

He never even thought of tenderness and emotion; his considerations about Durham remained cold. Durham didn't dislike him, he was sure. That was all he wanted. One thing at a time. He didn't so much as have hopes, for hope distracts, and he had a great deal to see to.

E.M. Forster

I lay on the bowsprit, with the water foaming into spume under me, the masts with every sail white in the moonlight towering above me. I became drunk with the beauty and singing rhythm of it, and for a moment lost myself- actually lost my life. I was set free... dissolved in the sea, became white sails and flying spray, became beauty and rhythm and the high dim-starred sky... I belonged within a unity and joy to life itself.

Eugene O'Neill

The finest works of art are precious, among other reasons, because they make it possible for us to know, if only imperfectly and for a little while, what it actually feels like to think subtly and feel nobly.

Aldous Huxley

Do not reveal, if liberty is precious to you; my face is the prison of love.

Leonardo da Vinci
