Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence. Second marriage is the triumph of hope over experience.

God is not a dead equation!

Religion and art spring from the same root and are close kin. Economics and art are strangers.

Willa Cather

Love means to love that which is unlovable; or it is no virtue at all.

G. K. Chesterton

That should be considered long which can be decided but once.

Publilius Syrus

And the might of the Gentile, unsmote by the sword,Hath melted like snow in the glance of the Lord!

Lord (George Gordon) Byron, Hebr

Yeah, it's odd when you look back at your own work. Some filmmakers don't look back at their work at all. I look at my work a lot, actually. I feel like I learned something while looking at stuff I've done in terms of what I'm going to do in the future, mistakes I've made and things at work or what have you.

Christopher Nolan

We bless and curse ourselves. Some dreams are divine, as well as some waking thoughts. Donne sings of one Who dreamt devoutlier than most use to pray. Dreams are the touchstones of our characters. We are scarcely less afflicted when we remember some unworthiness in our conduct in a dream, than if it had been actual, and the intensity of our grief, which is our atonement, measures inversely the degree by which this is separated from an actual unworthiness. For in dreams we but act a part which must have been learned and rehearsed in our waking hours, and no doubt could discover some waking consent thereto. If this meanness has not its foundation in us, why are we grieved at it? In dreams we see ourselves naked and acting out our real characters, even more clearly than we see others awake. But an unwavering and commanding virtue would compel even its most fantastic and faintest dreams to respect its ever wakeful authority; as we are accustomed to say carelessly, we should never have dreamed of such a thing. Our truest life is when we are in dreams awake.http://national-library.elecbook.net/830.html

Majesty and love do not consort well together, nor do they dwell in the same place.

Ovid

The sudden disappointment of a hope leaves a scar which the ultimate fulfillment of that hope never entirely removes.

Thomas Hardy

The great must submit to the dominion of prudence and of virtue, or none will long submit to the dominion of the great.
