No man can be ideally successful until he has found his place. Like a locomotive he is strong on the track, but weak anywhere else.

Cada persona tendrá su propia lista, su propio pedazo del país colgado del corazón. Una lista larga, rica colorida, voluptuosa, fragante. Una lista con la cual contener el pesimismo; una vacuna contra la desilusión. Una lista de lo mejor de México. Una lista para despertarse en las mañanas.

Michael Morpurgo

I collect art, and I drink wine... things that I like that I had never been exposed to. But I never said, 'I'm going to buy art to impress this crowd.' That's just ridiculous to me. I don't live my life like that, because how could you be happy with yourself?

Thomas Mann

I was as happy doing theater in New York for little or no money as I am now doing television for more money. The happiness, I guess, comes out of it being a good job. The success has to do with the fact that it's a good job that will continue.

David Hyde Pierce

It is ideas, not vested interests, which are dangerous for good or evil.

John Maynard Keynes

Beauty is worse than wine; it intoxicates both the holder and the beholder

Aldous Huxley
