Michael Caine // "I've always got to have one impossible dream on the back burner."
Woody Allen // "I have no idea what I am doing, but incompetence has never prevented me from plunging in with enthusiasm."
Andy Warhol // "People are always so boring when they band together. You have to be alone to develop all the idiosyncrasies that make a person interesting."
Ludwig van Beethoven // "It seemed unthinkable for me to leave the world forever before I had produced all that I felt called upon to produce."
Mick Jagger // "People now have less and less work to do...as the years go on they'll have hardly any work to do because there will be machines to do it for them, which has already happened. And so they'll have to work like four hours a day and the rest of the time they'll have to do something else. And that something else isn't going to be what people think. It isn't going to be just jumping around and swimming and just reading books and going to movies because...you get very bored with those things very quickly... I hope it's going to be something good."
Ray Charles // "I'm not into the money thing. You can only sleep in one bed at a time. You can only eat one meal at a time, or be in one car at a time. So I don't have to have millions of dollars to be happy."
Elizabeth Taylor // "I'm not fascinated by things. I dive into them. One is fascinated by fire. But when I was a toddler...I was so fascinated by it that I reached out and touched it. That's the difference...I get totally involved."
Amedeo Modigliani // "When I know your soul, I will paint your eyes."
Arthur C. Clarke // "Sometimes I think we're alone in the universe, and sometimes I think we're not. In either case, the idea is quite staggering."
Gregory Peck // "Tough times don't last, tough people do, remember?"
Eduardo Galeano // "Each person shines with his or her own light. No two flames are alike. There are big flames and little flames, flames of every color. Some people's flames are so still they don't even flicker in the wind, while others have wild flames that fill the air with sparks. Some foolish flames neither burn nor shed light, but others blaze with life so fiercely that you can't look at them without blinking and if you approach you shine in the fire."
Paloma Picasso // "Sometimes I get very dressed up just to go to the corner for some bread. I dress for my own amusement."
