Outer space is no place for a person of breeding.

I love surprises - champagne and strawberries, all that pampering, romantic stuff. Guys ought to know how to pamper their women properly.

Danica McKellar

Perhaps it's good for one to suffer. Can an artist do anything if he's happy? Would he ever want to do anything? What is art, after all, but a protest against the horrible inclemency of life?

Aldous Huxley

To the real artist in humanity, what are called bad manners are often the most picturesque and significant of all.

Walt Whitman

If your daily life seems poor, do not blame it; blame yourself that you are not poet enough to call forth its riches; for the Creator, there is no poverty.

Rainer Maria Rilke

May I repeat what I told you here: treat nature by means of the cylinder, the sphere, the cone, everything brought into proper perspective so that each side of an object or a plane is directed towards a central point. Lines parallel to the horizon give breadth... lines perpendicular to this horizon give depth. But nature for us men is more depth than surface, whence the need to introduce into our light vibrations, represented by the reds and yellows, a sufficient amount of blueness to give the feel of air.

Paul Cezanne, Letter to Emile Be

Say oh wise man how you have come to such knowledge? Because I was never ashamed to confess my ignorance and ask others.

Johann Gottfried Von Herder

There is a contest old as Eden, which still goes on - the conflict between right and wrong, between error and truth. In this conflict every human being has a part.

Matthew Simpson

It is forbidden to kill therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets.

Voltaire

Life is made of ever so many partings welded together

Charles Dickens

The future and eternity are two entirely different things.

Doug Coupland

Lawyers and woodpeckers have long bills.

Proverb

Written over the gate here are the words 'Leave every hope behind, ye who enter.' Only think what a relief that is! For what is hope? A form of moral responsibility. Here there is no hope, and consequently no duty, no work, nothing to be gained by praying, nothing to be lost by doing what you like. Hell, in short is a place where you have nothing to do but amuse yourself.

George Bernard Shaw
