What is the verdict of the vastest mind? Silence: the book of fate is closed to us. Man is a stranger to his own research; He knows not whence he comes, nor whither goes. Tormented atoms in a bed of mud, Devoured by death, a mockery of fate. But thinking atoms, whose far-seeing eyes, Guided by thought, have measured the faint stars, Our being mingles with the infinite; Ourselves we never see, or come to know. Voltaire

Seeing an Earl as an owl on a mantelpiece, and having part of one's face removed by a cat, both on the same morning, can temporarily undermine the self-control of any man. Mervyn Peake
Ken Jennings quote: "Eratosthenes, the mapmaker who was the first man to accurately..."
Eratosthenes, the mapmaker who was the first man to accurately measure the size of the Earth, was a librarian. Ken Jennings
Walter Mosley quote: "But at night we began dreaming of Man's perfect world without..."
But at night we began dreaming of Man's perfect world without humanity (57) Walter Mosley
We both wanted money. Immense necessity! Universal want! Is there a civilised human being who does not feel for us? How insensible must that man be! Or how rich! Wilkie Collins
Oscar Wilde quote: "A man wants to be a woman's first love, a woman wants to be..."
A man wants to be a woman's first love, a woman wants to be his last. Oscar Wilde
[defines a madman as] a man who preferred to become mad, in the socially accepted sense of the word, rather than forfeit a certain superior idea of human honor. Antonin Artaud
Much has been said about Robert, and more will be added. Young men will adopt his gait. Young girls will wear white dresses and mourn his curls. He will be condemned and adored. His excesses damned or romanticized. In the end, truth will be found in his work, the corporeal body of the artist. It will not fall away. Man cannot judge it. For art sings of God, and ultimately belongs to him. Patti Smith
