Conversation augments pleasure and diminishes pain by our having shares in either for silent woes are greatest, as silent satisfaction leas since sometimes our pleasure would be none but for telling of it, and our grief insupportable but for participation.

I always enjoyed playing ball, and it didn't matter to me whether I played with white kids or black. I never understood why an issue was made of who I played with, and I never felt comfortable, when I grew up, telling other people how to act

I would like, in my life, to always be doing things I'm proud of. I know that probably won't happen all the time. But I'd prefer to be telling stories I can be proud of and understand why they're being told. I do watch a lot of films and TV, but sometimes I think: Why the hell did you make that then? I won't say what they are though.

Winston Churchill

When you look in your mind you find it covered with a lot of rubbishy thoughts. You have to penetrate these and hear what your mind is telling you to do. Such work is original work.
Agnes Martin

When I was very young, I remember my mother telling me about a friend of hers in Germany, a pianist who played a symphony that wasn't permitted, and the Germans came up on stage and broke every finger on her hands. I grew up with stories of Nazis breaking the fingers of Jews.

Meg! I love you! I want to marry you! That's weird, she said without stopping. Only six weeks ago, you were telling me all about how Lucy broke your heart. I was wrong. Lucy broke my brain.

When you strike a blow, do not let your mind dally on it, not concerning yourself with whether or not it is a telling blow you should strike again and again, over and over, even four or five times. The thing is not to let your opponent even raise his head.
