"I start a picture and I finish it."

-- Jean-Michel Basquiat

“The health dollar is very precious. When someone has such a bad condition as brain cancer, we know they're going to die and they're usually going to die within 12 months of diagnosis. They cost a lot of money to keep the patient alive for that period of time. Is it really worth it?”
“We are on the track of something absolutely mediocre...”
“The day will probably come when you can tell everything about a person from his dreams except his age and weight.”
“While our country has made great strides in breaking down the barriers which for so long denied equal opportunity to all Americans, we are not yet the beautiful symphony of brotherhood of Dr. King's dream.”
“When you beat England at Twickenham you don't feel the need to make changes to a winning side, but there are areas we think we can improve”
“Where youthful beauty is unconscious, mature beauty is knowing and sophisticated.”
“I want to show to those who deprive people the right to love of country, that when we know how to sacrifice ourselves for our duties and convictions, death does not matter if one dies for those one loves â€“ for his country and for others dear to him.”
“All religion seems to need to prove that it's the only truth. And that's where it turns demonic. Because that's when you get religious wars and persecutions and burning heretics at the stake.”
