"I have a Russian heart."

-- Maria Sharapova

“It is a common mistake these days to politicize anything and everything, including music.”
“You're so good at helping everybody else, I think you're in danger of leaving yourself out of your own life.”
“Whenever the deity contrives misfortunes for a man, he first harms their understanding.”
“But once a culture develops sufficiently to become skeptical, the idea of censorship becomes less attractive. To suppress a book or a picture or a sculpture or a play or a film is a terrible act of aggression against the artist who created it. This is a miming of capital punishment; it destroys the life that has been emanated by a life.”
“Life is often more a sweat than a pleasure but, paradoxically, it is the sweat that gives true meaning to all of life's pleasures. This is the message from Mack Bolan, book after book, and it is the only thing dignifying this type of fiction.”
“People can tell the truth much more freely when they're apparently lying.”
“Whoever controls the line of scrimmage and wins up front is going to be the winner.”
“HYPOTHESES: Evil is boring. Cynicism is idiotic. Fear is a bad habit. Despair is lazy. Joy is fascinating. Love is an act of heroic genius. Pleasure is our birthright. Receptivity is a superpower.”
