I saw a photo of the Svoboda leader, Yatseniuk [Arseniy Yatseniuk, one of Batkivschyna leaders] and Klitschko [Vitali Klitschko, UDAR party leader] together demonstrating the unity of opposition. But I can't imagine that people like Klitschko, who position themselves as Europeans, and Yatseniuk, would willingly shake the hand of a person who in public states that Jews are the main threat to European civilization. Sometimes, while looking for and respecting opposition, we can't recognize it, ~Marek Siwiec

Brancusi made me realise that what I had learned previously, the quick ways of doing things, was all wrong. It is a search you have to enter, into yourself. ~Isamu Noguchi
#quotes #isamu-noguchi

There is a theory that creativity arises when individuals are out of sync with their environment. To put it simply, people who fit in with their communities have insufficient motivation to risk their psyches in creating something truly new, while those who are out of sync are driven by the constant need to prove their worth. ~Gary Taubes
#quotes #gary-taubes #motivation #creativity #science

I must go on living. And, though it may be childish of me, I can't go on in simple compliance. From now on I must struggle with the world. I thought that Mother might well be the last of those who can end their lives beautifully and sadly, struggling with no one, neither hating nor betraying anyone. In the world to come there will be no room for such people. The dying are beautiful, but to live, to survive; those things somehow seem hideous and contaminated with blood. ~Osamu Dazai

Maturity is the ability to postpone gratification. ~Sigmund Freud

Artists are always looking for new things and fresh ground and fresh air. If it feels new to me, there's a chance it'll feel new to the audience and we'll have found something. ~Jerry Seinfeld

It is my belief that cooking is a craft. I think that you can push it into the realm of art, but it starts with craft. It starts with an understanding of materials. It starts with an understanding of where foods are grown. ~Tom Colicchio

The thing about being an actor is that every new job is a new challenge. Sometimes you'll have a shot, and it doesn't work. Sometimes it'll work better than you expected. ~Jacki Weaver

I race in two or three classic races a year and I may carry on for 10 more years or I may stop tomorrow. ~Barry Sheene

Judging is a lonely job in which a man is, as near as may be, an island entire. ~Abe Fortas
#quotes #abe-fortas #judging

I always stayed for the first curtain call and people always said, "Who's that?" But this got me started in acting. ~James Stewart
#quotes #james-stewart #acting

Nakata is empty inside. Do you know what it means to be completely empty? Being empty is like a vacant house. An unlocked, vacant house. Anybody can come in, anytime they want. That is what scares me the most. ~Haruki Murakami
#quotes #haruki-murakami #emptiness

All actors are looking for that role that is going to define who they are. When it happens, it is a good thing. ~Jeffrey Pierce
#quotes #jeffrey-pierce #movies

I want to take back at least half of the "I love you"s, because I didn't mean them as much as the other ones. ~David Levithan
#quotes #david-levithan #love

And they need not cause you grief. As my Highland grandmother said, and she had the Sight-Tis not the dead ye have to be concerned about! Beware of the Living! And she was a wise woman. The dead are beyond your help or mine, poor things. But the living need us. Thirty souls at the least, Phryne, are still on that island to praise God who might now be angels-or devils. ~Kerry Greenwood
