When we understand that man is the only animal who must create meaning, who must open a wedge into neutral nature, we already understand the essence of love. Love is the problem of an animal who must find life, create a dialogue with nature in order to experience his own being.

Once something becomes discernible, or understandable, we no longer need to repeat it. We can destroy it.

Robert Wilson

No, thou villain, thou art full of piety

William Shakespeare

Frisbeetarianism is the belief that when you die, your soul goes up on the roof and gets stuck.

George Carlin

The digital camera is a great invention because it allows us to reminisce. Instantly.

Demetri Martin

I never talk back. I listen and always remember your every word, so come pen or mouse, never forget that I will treasure your thoughts forever. Yours truly, Paper.

L.M. Fields

A friend to everybody and to nobody is the same thing.

Proverb

After a gig I always head back to the hotel, remembering granny's words of wisdom. I cancel the late-night pizza and watch the Jonathan Ross show instead.

Jimmy Carr

Romantic love interests almost everybody, because almost everybody knows something about it, or would like to know.

Henry Van Dyke

Clary: What are you doing here, anyway?Jace: 'Here' as in your bedroom or 'here' as in the great spiritual question of our purpose here on this planet? If you're asking whether it's all just a cosmic coincidence or there's a greater metaethical purpose to life, well, that's a puzzler for the ages. I mean, simple ontological reductionism is clearly a fallacious argument, but-Clary: I'm going to bed.

Cassandra Clare

Every journalist who is not too stupid or too full of himself to notice what is going on knows that what he does is morally indefensible. He is a kind of confidence man, preying on people's vanity, ignorance, or loneliness, gaining their trust and betraying them without remorse.

Janet Malcolm

A verb has a hard enough time of it in this world when it is all together. It's downright inhuman to split it up. But that's what those Germans do. They take part of a verb and put it down here, like a stake, and they take the other part of it and put it a way over yonder like another stake, and between these two limits they just shovel in German.

Mark Twain
