In spite the mountains of books written about art, no precise definition of art has been constructed. And the reason for this is that the conception of art has been based on the conception of beauty.

I've never done anything because I thought it would look cool.

John Mayer

I love watching people's dreams come true.

Jessica Simpson

Women need not always keep their mouths shut and their wombs open.

Emma Goldman

One must not forget that recovery is brought about not by the physician, but by the sick man himself. He heals himself, by his own power, exactly as he walks by means of his own power, or eats, or thinks, breathes or sleeps.

Georg Groddeck

And actually, about three weeks ago, Micky, Peter and I were in Vegas at the MGM Grand. And we did about 12 shows in seven days. It was quite an experience.

Davy Jones

A fully equipped duke costs as much to keep up as two Dreadnoughts, and dukes are just as great a terror -- and they last longer.

David Lloyd George

I don't really consider myself one of those actors who takes his work home with him.

Jeff Bridges

Whatever success I've had, I always like to top it.

Bernie Mac

I am a dreamer of words, of written words. I think I am reading; a word stops me. I leave the page. The syllables of the word begin to move around. Stressed accents begin to invert. The word abandons its meaning like an overload which is too heavy and prevents dreaming. Then words take on other meanings as if they had the right to be young. And the words wander away, looking in the nooks and crannies of vocabulary for new company, bad company.

Gaston Bachelard

Do not quench your inspiration and your imagination; do not become the slave of your model.

Vincent Van Gogh

Today we affirm a new commitment to live out our nation's promise through civility, courage, compassion and character.

George W. Bush
