| Hello and welcome to my more serious quotes page...by serious i just mean that these aren't thing my friends have picked up or song lyrics...these are usually things from books or old famous people I've never heard of. I collect quotes on a regualr basis, but i write them on scraps of paper which are currently floeting around in my desk somehwere, so this page will be updated according to when i find them. "When a man says that he is Jesus or Napolean, or that martians are after him, or claims something else that seems outrageous to common sense, he is labled psychotic and locked up in a madhouse. Freedom of speech is only for normal people." -Thomas S. Szusz "Anyone, provided he can be amusing, has the right to talk to himself." -Charles Baudelaire "Anxiety is the diziness of freedom" -Keirkegaard Okay I thought I new where all of the other quotes were, but I'm relatively sure that I collected them and put them "somewhere safe". I have forgotten the "safe" location, so I'll just put up some quotes from "The Picture of Dorian Gray" by my favorite classical writer, Oscar Wilde. "For there is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about." "I have grown to love secrecy. IRt seems to be the one ting that can make modern life mysterious or marvelous to us." "Conscience and cowardice are really the same things, Basil. Conscience is the trade-name of the firm. That is all." "Laughter is not at all a bad beginning for a friendship, and it is far the best ending for one." (This is my favorite) "The only way to get rid of temptation is to yeild to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for that which it has forbidden itslef." "He had set himself to the serious study of the great aristocratic art of doing nothing at all." "American girls are as clever at concealing their parents as English women are at concealing their past." "I am told that pork-packing is the most lucrative profession in America, after politics." "Behind every esquisite thing that ever existed, there was something tragic." "'How different an actress is! Harry! Why did you not tell me that the one thing worth loving is an actress?'" "'Marraige is hardly a thing you can do once now and then, Harry.' 'Except in America'" "It is exquisite, and it leaves one unsatisfied. What more can one want?" "I love acting. It is so much more real than life." "...acting was the one reality of my life. It was only in the theatre that I lived." "He was dominated by the carelessness of hapiness, by the high indifference of joy." I became so obsorbed in the book from that point on, that I forgo to underline quotes, but let me just tell you that it grows more beautiful with every page, so read it. |
