Those who want to row on the ocean of human knowledge do not get far, and the storm drives those out of their course who set sail.

Franz Grillparzer

I'm a writer of faith who worries about the intolerance of religion. I look at the past and fear we haven't learned from it. I believe that humanity is capable of evil as well as great acts of courage and goodness. I have hope. Deep down, I believe in the human spirit, although sometimes that belief is shaken.

Vanna Bonta

In America, I would say New York and New Orleans are the two most interesting food towns. In New Orleans, they don't have a bad deli. There's no mediocrity accepted.

Mario Batali

Andre Breton

Becoming famous and selling a lot of records doesn't change a thing.
