Art is the medium through which new thoughts, perspectives, and attitudes are brought into the world.

Facts, like living things, have a value in and of themselves and demand respect. Yet some people use them as means to an end, and dismiss them as soon as they are done using them.

True ideas seem to suffer from repetition, while stupid ones tend to flourish.

A thousand truths can be assembled in such a way as to create a colossal lie.

As time and space are bent by gravity, so too is truth bent by power.

You may never live long enough to discover who you are, but by the time you reach middle age you will hopefully realize who you are not.

Technology has not made humanity any wiser, it has only made us more dangerous.

Sometimes you come to realize you understand something but you can’t explain it to anyone, not even yourself. This is perhaps the most sacred kind of understanding.

Love transforms pleasure into pain.

There are crimes of passion and crimes of logic. The boundary between them is not clearly defined.

The anger came creeping back like the leak from a dripping water tank, the fall of each individual drop passing almost unnoticed until I realized I was soaked with the emotion.
