"I want to make a poem of my life."

--

Yukio Mishima

“I'm not funny. What I am is brave.”
“I Need a Good Book I need a good story. I need a good book. The kind that explodes Off the shelf. I need some good writing, Alive and exciting, To contemplate all by myself. I need a good novel, I need a good read. I probably need Two or three. I need a good tale Of love and betrayal Or perhaps an adventure at sea. I need a good saga. I need a good yarn. A momentous and mightily Or slight one. But with thousands and thousands And thousands of books, I need someone to tell me The right one. -John Lithgow”
“No fight is hopeless till it has been fought.”

“I don't intend for this to take on a political tone. I'm just here for the drugs.”
“And enough for me that when my hand touched your shoulder, you leaned on me; and when you felt me slip away, you called my name.”
“Directing, I get all kinds of inspiration. It's working with people. It's a lot more fun.”
“A simple, childlike faith in a Divine Friend solves all the problems that come to us by land or sea”
“It comes down to a question of attention: it's difficult to use the Net distractedly, unlike the television or the radio.”
