The world is seldom what it seems to man, who dimly sees, realities appear as dreams, and dreams realities.

I was confirmed at my prep school at the age of 13.

Some people say it might be good for your career to die and then come back again. I have died many ways, car crashes, motorcycle crashes, etc. But, I am still alive.

The rest, called literature, is a dossier of human imbecility for the guidance of future professors.

Tristan Tzara

I'm very girly. I love to talk about diets, exercise, kids, make-up.

...just friends, over and over you said it again -then you kissed me.

You know, it's possible for two humans to be in a relationship without there needing to be some public reason for that relationship.

Chris Martin

You never see animals going through the absurd and often horrible fooleries of magic and religion. Dogs do not ritually urinate in the hope of persuading heaven to do the same and send down rain. Asses do not bray a liturgy to cloudless skies. Nor do cats attempt, by abstinence from cat's meat, to wheedle the feline spirits into benevolence. Only man behaves with such gratuitous folly. It is the price he has to pay for being intelligent but not, as yet, quite intelligent enough.

Aldous Huxley

A new morality has burst upon us with some violence in connection with the problem of strong drink; and enthusiasts in the matter range from the man who is violently thrown out at 12.30, to the lady who smashes American bars with an axe. In these discussions it is almost always felt that one very wise and moderate position is to say that wine or such stuff should only be drunk as a medicine. With this I should venture to disagree with a peculiar ferocity. The one genuinely dangerous and immoral way of drinking wine is to drink it as a medicine. And for this reason: If a man drinks wine in order to obtain pleasure, he is trying to obtain something exceptional; something he does not expect every hour of the day; something which, unless he is a little insane, he will not try to get every hour of the day. But if a man drinks wine in order to obtain health, he is trying to get something natural; something, that is, that he ought not to be without; something that he may find it difficult to reconcile himself to being without. The man may not be seduced who has seen the ecstasy of being ecstatic; it is more dazzling to catch a glimpse of the ecstasy of being ordinary.

It was the living who ignored the strange and wonderful, because life was too full of the boring and mundane.

Terry Pratchett

Sites need to be able to interact in one single, universal space.

The definition of the individual was: a multitude of one million divided by one million.
