Amy Winehouse // "I'd like to be remembered as someone who wasn't satisfied...as someone who was a pioneer."

Gertrude Stein // "A very important thing is not to make up your mind that you are any one thing."

Wendell Berry // "We have lived our lives by the assumption that what was good for us would be good for the world. We have been wrong. We must change our lives so that it will be possible to live by the contrary assumption, that what is good for the world will be good for us. And that requires that we make an effort to know the world..."

Tilda Swinton // "I was on a train when I was 10 and I was going back to school and I was really miserable. I was on this carriage and I suddenly became aware that nobody on this carriage would be able to know how miserable I was. That it was possible to feel something and not show on your face, that was really mind-blowing."

Matthew McConaughey // "I don't want to just revolve. I want to evolve."

Martha Graham // "No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer, divine dissatisfaction; a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others."

Abbas Kiarostami // "I think that in life, being is nothing but an illusion. If we acknowledge that and accept the fact that we are in between states, that we are moving, and this movement is the nature of our lives, and we stop having aspirations for being in a definite state, we know life better and are able to enjoy it better."

Andy Warhol // "What's great about this country is America started the tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest. You can be watching TV and see Coca-Cola, and you can know that the President drinks Coke, Liz Taylor drinks Coke, and just think, you can drink Coke, too. A Coke is a Coke and no amount of money can get you a better Coke than the one the bum on the corner is drinking. All the Cokes are the same and all the Cokes are good."

Dustin Hoffman // "I said, 'You have me looking like a woman, now make me a beautiful woman.' Because I thought I should be beautiful... And they said to me, 'That's as good as it gets.' It was at that moment I had an epiphany, and I went home and started crying... I said I have to make this picture...because I think I am an interesting woman when I look at myself on screen. And I know that if I met myself at a party, I would never talk to that character because she doesn't fulfill physically the demands that we're brought up to think women have to have... There's too many interesting women I have not had the experience to know in this life because I have been brainwashed."

Maya Angelou // "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

Elie Wiesel // "For in the end, it is all about memory, its sources and its magnitude, and, of course, its consequences."

Alan Alda // "The difference between listening and pretending to listen, I discovered, is enormous... Real listening is a willingness to let the other person change you."
