"Don't be so gloomy. After all it's not that awful. Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock. So long Holly."

"that was the kind of beauty I was trying to get you to see," Orolo told me. "nothing is more important than that you see and love the beauty that is right in front of you, or else you will have no defense against the ugliness that will hem you in and come at you in so many ways"

"beauty pierces through like that ray through the clouds," Orolo continued. "your eye is drawn to where it touches something that is capable of reflecting it. but your mind knows that the light does not originate from the mountains and the towers. your mind knows that something is shining in from another world. don't listen to those who say it's in the eye of the beholder"

"All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity. But if the dreamers of day are dangerous men, for they may act their deam with open eyes to make it possible. This...I did."

''For poetry was all written before time was, and whenever we are so finely organized that we can penetrate into that region where the air is music, we hear those primal warblings, and attempt to write them down, but we lose ever and anon a word, a verse, and substitute something of our own, and thus miswrite the poem.''

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Fundamentals are the crutch of the talentless - Kenny Powers

The world is made up for the most part of morons and natural tyrants, sure of themselves, strong in their own opinions, never doubting anything. - Clarence Darrow

The very existence of flamethrowers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, "You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done." -GC
