All truly great art is optimistic. The individual artist is happy in his creative work. The fact that practically all great art is tragic does not in any way change the above thesis.

The eye sees what it brings the power to see.

Thomas Carlyle

Stupidity is infinitely more fascinating that intelligence. Intelligence has its limits while stupidity has none.

Claude Chabrol

If all people are unique, and if they are constantly changing each and every day, then all one can say about any social research finding is that it applied to that group of people on that given day, and given the propensity of humans to be different and to change, then it is unlikely that one would get the same results if one were to repeat the study.

Wayne Dyer

Be driven with purpose. Be relentless in your alignment with excellence. Pay no mind to the disimpassioned impotent haters.

Steve Maraboli

To live without Hope is to Cease to live.

Fyodor Dostoevsky

When my old man wanted sex... my mother would show him a picture of me.

Rodney Dangerfield

I got into acting my junior year of high school. We got a new hot drama teacher and I was like 'Alright, I'll try drama.'

Miles Teller

The principle feature of American liberalism is sanctimoniousness. By loudly denouncing all bad things -- war and hunger and date rape -- liberals testify to their own terrific goodness. More important, they promote themselves to membership in a self-selecting elite of those who care deeply about such things. It's a kind of natural aristocracy, and the wonderful thing about this aristocracy is that you don't have to be brave, smart, strong or even lucky to join it, you just have to be liberal.

P. J. O'Rourke

Death is nature's way of saying, Your table's ready.

Robin Williams

Art is a jealous mistress.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Friendship is one mind in two bodies.

Mencius

The soul would have no rainbow had the eyes no tears.
