I judge that the first thing a statue dug up in the Campagna does is to go shopping & buy an offensive & obscene fig leaf.
Imagine him cheapening the article at the counter & contriving how to take the innocence out of his nakedness & make the latter most offensive & conspicuous. Animals with fig leaf under tail.
- Notebook #17, Oct. 1878 - Feb. 1879

So it is not nakedness that gives the sense of immodesty, the modifying the nakedness is what does it.
- omitted passage from A Tramp Abroad, Mark Twain's Notebooks & Journals, Vol. 2 (DV 4, MTP)

Love seems the swiftest, but it is the slowest of all growths. No man or woman really knows what perfect love is until they have been married a quarter of a century.

My all time favorite quote:

This is the true joy of life, the being used up for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances, complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy.

I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the community, and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work, the more I live.

Life is no "brief candle" to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got hold of for a moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.


George Benard Shaw "Man and Superman"

One man's creativity is another's brain damage. - Roland Fischer

Live life fully while you're here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You're going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process. Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it. Don't try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.

Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible ~ Frank Zappa

Let's trade all our judging for appreciating.  Let's lay down our righteousness and just be together - Ram Dass

These aren't quotes from celebs, but just conversations I overheard.

I was in Walmart a few years ago and I heard a couple of guys talking. One of them said to the other "Meez and my brudda got in a fight the other day and I done nearly Trew him out da winda".

Another time, I was at the movie right when two women were talking about the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie with Johnny Depp. One of the ladies mentioned that she hadn't seen the first one with Gene Wilder. The other lady said to the first that the movie with Gene Wilder was really the second one and that the first one was actually a book.
