Anatole France

All changes, even the most longed for,
have their melancholy; for what we leave
behind us is a part of ourselves; we must
die to one life before we can enter another.

George Burns

Acting is all about honesty. If you can
fake that, you've got it made.

Sting

I see music as one language. If one musical
form eats its own tail, it dies. So it needs
to be a mongrel, it needs to be hybridised.

William S Burroughs

A functioning police state needs no police.

Tina Turner

But I believe we have a higher
level of mentality within us,
but we have to use the power
in the right way.

Charles Simic

Poetry is an orphan of silence. The words
never quite equal the experience behind them.

Marquis de Sade

Between understanding and faith
immediate connections must subsist.
