I think a lot of women innately know how to play their hand. I'm not a big one for the rules.

There's stuff I don't like to rehearse, really emotional things, I don't like to rehearse. You just beat it to death.

Kat Dennings

You don't need any brains to listen to music.

Luciano Pavarotti

My goal was not to be famous or rich but to be good at what I did. And that required going to New York and studying and working in the theater.

Shirley Knight

The science fiction world has a lot of people doing seriously imaginative thinking.

Paul Krugman

I was a woman in a man's world. I was a Democrat in a Republican administration. I was an intellectual in a world of bureaucrats. I talked differently. This may have made me a bit like an ink blot.

Jeane Kirkpatrick

And certainly, the mistakes that we male and female mortals make when we have our own way might fairly raise some wonder that we are so fond of it.

George Eliot

Diplomats make it their business to conceal the facts.

Margaret Sanger

Without music, life would be a mistake.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Space has always been the spiritual dimension of architecture. It is not the physical statement of the structure so much as what it contains that moves us.

Arthur Erickson

Art is my life and my life is art.

Yoko Ono

There are two kinds of truth; the truth that lights the way and the truth that warms the heart. The first of these is science, and the second is art. Without art science would be as useless as a pair of high forceps in the hands of a plumber. Without science art would become a crude mess of folklore and emotional quackery.

Raymond Chandler

Fashion is born by small facts, trends, or even politics, never by trying to make little pleats and furbelows, by trinkets, by clothes easy to copy, or by the shortening or lengthening of a skirt.
