P.J. O'Rourke - I'd never heard of this guy, but he sounds hilarious.
A human being is a part of the whole, called by us Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest--a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty.
~Max Frisch~
If people sat outside and looked at the stars each night, I'll bet they'd live a lot differently. - Bill Watterson
We must free ourselves of the hope that the sea will ever rest. We must learn to sail in high winds. ~Hanmer Parsons Grant~
You know... that a blank wall is an apalling thing to look at. The wall of a museum - a canvas - a piece of film - or a guy sitting in front of a typewriter. Then, you start out to do something - that vague thing called creation. The beginning strikes awe within you.
~Edward Steichen~
