I often wish... that I could rid the world of the tyranny of facts. What are facts but compromises? A fact merely marks the point where we have agreed to let investigation cease.

Where there is writing- there is a writer Where there is planning- there is a planner Where there is a building- there is a builder Where there is a miracle- there is a God!

There is only one way in the world to be distinguished. Follow your instinct! Be yourself, and you'll be somebody. Be one more blind follower of the blind, and you will have the oblivion you desire.

A 'fact' merely marks the point where we have agreed to let investigation cease.

Lord of the far horizons, Give us the eyes to see Over the verge of the sundown The beauty that is to be.

Have little care that Life is brief, And less that Art is long. Success is in the silences Though Fame is in the song.

It is not being out at heels that makes a man discontented, it is being out at heart. To be contented is to be good friends with yourself.
