Who thinks the law has anything to do with justice? It's what we have because we can't have justice.

You must understand that love never keeps a man from pursuing his Personal Legend. If he abandons that pursuit, it's because it wasn't a true love.. the love that speaks the language of the world.

Paulo Coelho

We're all going to go crazy, living this epidemic every minute, while the rest of the world goes on out there, all around us, as if nothing is happening, going on with their own lives and not knowing what it's like, what we're going through. We're living through war, but where they're living it's peacetime, and we're all in the same country.

Larry Kramer

I've been quite fascinated by the relative insignificance of human existence, the shortness of life. We might as well be a letter in a word in a sentence on a page in a book in a library in a city in one country in this enormous universe! And that kind of fear and insignificance has kept me awake at night.

Laura Marling

Good and bad men are less than they seem.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Real shapes and real patterns are things you would observe in nature, like the marks on the back of a cobra's hood or the markings on a fish or a lizard. Imaginary shapes are just that, symbols that come to a person in dreams or reveries and are charged with meaning.

Jim Woodring

For to do things with care is the closest thing to love that I know the cape of grace falling softly about the shoulders as we focus on the task at hand whether it be to listen or to leave or to learn.

Jane Siberry

But in the wake of 'Bullet,' all the guys wanted to know was, 'How's it doing? How's it selling?' How to tell them I didn't give a flying fuck how it was doing in the marketplace, that what I cared about was how it was dong in the reader's heart?

Stephen King

Verence would rather cut his own leg off than put a witch in prison, since it'd save trouble in the long run and probably be less painful.

Terry Pratchett

Know then thyself, presume not God to scan The proper study of mankind is man.

Alexander Pope

In words are seen the state of mind and character and disposition of the speaker.

Plutarch

Good design is making something intelligible and memorable. Great design is making something memorable and meaningful.

Dieter Rams

When you're walking down the street, or you're at a restaurant, someone catches your eye because they have their own look. It goes way beyond what they're wearing - into their mannerisms, the way they smile, or just the way they hold themselves.
