Quote by Stephen Bayley, Taste, pt. 1, Ta

Taste is more to do with manners than appearances. Taste is both myth and reality; it is not a style.

Summary

This quote suggests that taste is not solely based on superficial appearances, but is instead rooted in manners and etiquette. It emphasizes that taste encompasses both real and imaginary aspects, denoting that it is not limited to any specific style or trend. In other words, true taste goes beyond mere aesthetics and is influenced by how one conducts themselves and interacts with others. It highlights the importance of considering values, conduct, and social norms when evaluating one's taste rather than solely focusing on outward appearances.

I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish

I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing thatpeople often say about Him: I'm ready to accept Jesus as a great moralteacher, but I don't accept His claim to be God. That is the one thing wemust not say. A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesussaid would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic--on alevel with the man who says he is a poached egg--or else he would be theDevil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, theSon of God: or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for afool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at Hisfeet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronisingnonsense about His being a great moral teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.

If it all be for naught, for nothingness at last,Why does Go

If it all be for naught, for nothingness at last,Why does God make the world so fair?Why spill this golden splendor out across the western hills,And light the silver lamp of eve?Why give me eyes to see, and soul to love so strong and deep?Then, with a pang this brightness stabs me through,And wakes within rebellious voice to cry against all death?Why set this hunger for eternity to gnaw my heartstrings through,If death ends all?If death ends all, then evil must be good,Wrong must be right, and beauty ugliness.God is Judas who betrays His Son,And with a kiss, damns all the world to Hell, --If Christ rose not again.written by Unknown soldier, killed in World War I

With the CGI, suddenly there's a thousand enemies instead of six - the army goes off into the horizon. You don't need that. The audience loses its relationship with the threat on the screen. That's something that's consistently happening and it makes these movies like video games and that's a soulless enterprise. It's all kinetics without emotion.

I just recently joined Twitter. It's very positive - I love all the accolades. If my ego is hurting, I can just open my Twitter account and see 'Oh, I love you! I love the show!' and it's great. I'm trying to find the balance between trying to be funny, being honest and just being a promoter as the guy on 'Royal Pains.'
