Harold Pinter

“There is a single light of science, and to brighten it anywhere is to brighten it everywhere.”
“I remember, I remember The roses, red and white, The violets, and the lily-cups, Those flowers made of light! The lilacs, where the robin built, And where my brother set The laburmum on his birthday,- The tree is living yet.”
“Do not measure success by today's harvest. Measure success by the seeds you plant today.”
“I prefer my oysters fried; that way I know my oysters died.”
“You know what I mean. And by the way, you should slow down.â€ I sighed. â€œYouâ€™re kidding me. This is coasting. This is little old lady speed.â€ â€œNASCAR drivers would have heart attacks. Slow down before we get a ticket.â€ â€œChicken.”
“Whereâ€™s your sketch pad?â€ I asked. â€¦ â€œI gave that up,â€ Kay said. â€œI wasnâ€™t very good, so I changed my major.â€ â€œTo what?â€ â€œTo pre-med, then psychology, then English lit, then history.â€ â€œI like a woman who knows what she wants.â€ Kay smiled. â€œSo do I, but I donâ€™t know any.”
“We need practice solving problems.”
“To think, and to feel, constitute the two grand divisions of men of genius-the men of reasoning and the men of imagination.”
