Then, brothers, it came. Oh, bliss, bliss and heaven. I lay all nagoy to the ceiling, my gulliver on my rookers on the pillow, glazzies closed, rot open in bliss, slooshying the sluice of lovely sounds. Oh, it was gorgeousness and gorgeosity made flesh. Anthony Burgess
I got the blues thinking of the future, so I left off and made some marmalade. It's amazing how it cheers one up to shred orange and scrub the floor. David Herbert Lawrence

Even those who do not, or cannot, avail themselves of a scientific education, choose to benefit from the technology that is made possible by the scientific education of others. Richard Dawkins
These are things you should learn. Your past is a skeleton walking one step behind you; your future is a skeleton walking one step in front of you. Maybe you don’t wear a watch, but your skeletons do, and they always know what time it is. Now, these skeletons are made of memories, dreams, and voices. And they can trap you in the in-between, between touching and becoming. But they’re not necessarily evil, unless you let them be. Sherman Alexie
Painting relates to both art and life. Neither can be made. I try to act in that gap between the two.- 1959, from a catalogue Robert Rauschenberg
Deep hearts, sage minds, take life as God has made it; it is a long trial, an incomprehensible preparation for an unknown destiny. This destiny, the true one, begins for a man with the first step inside the tomb. Then something appears to him, and he begins to distinguish the definitive. The definitive, meditate upon that word. The living perceive the infinite; the definitive permits itself to be seen only by the dead. In the meanwhile, love and suffer, hope and contemplate. Woe, alas! to him... Victor Hugo
God is the only comfort, He is also the supreme terror: the thing we most need and the thing we most want to hide from. He is our only possible ally, and we have made ourselves His enemies. Some people talk as if meeting the gaze of absolute goodness would be fun. They need to think again. They are still only playing with religion. Goodness is either the great safety or the great danger - according to the way you react to it. And we have reacted the wrong way. C. S. Lewis
Ayn Rand quote: "I want to be prepared to claim the greatest virtue of all -..."
I want to be prepared to claim the greatest virtue of all - that I was a man who made money Ayn Rand
It just happened. As though a moment comes when it's both necessary and natural to make a decision that has long since been made. Georges Simenon
Pablo Picasso quote: "Painting is not made to decorate apartments. It's an offensive..."
Painting is not made to decorate apartments. It's an offensive and defensive weapon against the enemy.(about Guernica). Pablo Picasso
The sun has already set on the days we made those choices. We must concentrate on what we can do tomorrow; we can't relive yesterday. Terry Goodkind
Katherine Dunn quote: "They thought to use and shame me but I win out by nature,..."
They thought to use and shame me but I win out by nature, because a true freak cannot be made. A true freak must be born. Katherine Dunn
Perhaps I am even envious of Stendhal? He robbed me of the best atheist joke which precisely I could have made: 'God's only excuse is that he does not exist'...I myself have said somewhere: what hitherto been the greatest objection to existence? God... Friedrich Nietzsche
