Harold O. J. Brown famous quotes

Last updated: Sep 5, 2024

Once upon a time, a historian told me that the most important choice a new historian could make was of his or her specialist subject. Most of the good stuff was far too overcrowded, so you had to pick about in the exotic and extinct. His recommendations were the Picts or the Minoans, because hardly anything was known about them and you could spend a happy lifetime of speculation.
Our choices determine our destiny
Friendship is the positive and unalterable choice of a person whom we have singled out for qualitites that we admire.
You are free to choose. You are not free not to choose. No choice is a choice. You are free to choose but you are not free to choose the consequences of that choice.
I'm kind of glad that I was able to properly grow up before becoming a massive movie star.
But I was only a chaotic walker, nobody could stop me; even a totalitarian state was not able to control my daydreams, my poetic fascinations, the pattern of my walking.
Everybody seems to be imprisoned in their own sectarian or political affiliations. They don't seem to be able to rise above these things.
We are all members of a larger community which depends on everyone playing a part.
What we consider to be different depends on what we consider to be the norm.
Live like there’s no tomorrow and learn as if your life depends on it
