When we were all kids, there was one particular trailer that I think we can all remember. That was the trailer for "Close Encounters of the Third Kind." There was an amazing teaser trailer with all this weird kind of documentary footage. We were like, "What was that! I've got to see that! What the hell was that?" ~Matt Reeves
#quotes #matt-reeves #childhood

The main courtyard was filled with warriors, mermen with fish tails from the waist down and human bodies from the waist up, except their skin was blue, which I'd never known before. Some were tending the wounded. Some were sharpening spears and swords. One passed us, swimming in a hurry. His eyes were bright green, like that stuff they put in glo-sticks, and his teeth were shark teeth. They don't show you stuff like that in "The Little Mermaid. ~Rick Riordan

Was awakened in the night to a strain of music dying away, passing travellers singing. My being was so expanded and infinitely and divinely related for a brief season that I saw how unexhausted, how almost wholly unimproved, was man's capacity for a divine life. When I remembered what a narrow and finite life I should anon awake to! ~Henry David Thoreau
#quotes #henry-david-thoreau #night #music

For piety lies not in being often seen turning a veiled head to stones, nor in approaching every altar, nor in lying prostrate before the temples of the gods, nor in sprinkling altars with the blood of beasts but rather in being able to look upon all things with a mind at peace. ~Lucretius
#quotes #lucretius #piety #mind #peace

I did my homework and didn't go out much, and had a very highly developed kitsch fantasy life where I dreamed of being a dancing girl. ~Emily Mortimer
