There's always the motivation of wanting to win.
Everybody has that. But a champion needs,
in his attitude, a motivation above and beyond winning.

The brighter you are,
the more you have to learn.

The most important thing in
communication is hearing what isn't being

Fascism is not in itself a new order of society.
It is the future refusing to be born

Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eye.

The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost,
to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience

Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under the trees on a summer's day,
listening to the murmur of water,
or watching the clouds float across the sky,
is by no means a waste of time

A traveler of taste will notice that the wise are polite all over the world,
but the fool only at home

Between friends differences in taste or opinion are irritating in direct proportion to their triviality

Never try to reason the prejudice out of a man.
It was not reasoned into him, and cannot be reasoned out

Taste is nothing but an enlarged capacity for receiving pleasure from works of imagination

Why shouldn't truth be stranger than fiction?
Fiction, after all, has to make sense.

I'm tired of all this nonsense about beauty being only skin-deep. T
hat's deep enough.
What do you want, an adorable pancreas?
