"I entered this world on the Champs-Elysees, 1959.
Sur la trottoir du Champs Elysees. And do you know
what my very first words were?
'New York Herald Tribune! New York Herald Tribune!'"
~Isabelle, Bertolucci's
The Dreamers
But what am I still to you
Some thief who stole from you?
OR, SOME FOOL DRAMA QUEEN
Whose chances were few?
~Jeff Buckley,
Morning Theft
"I wonder what happend in Jared Leto's life to make him so angry."
~Caplinsea
"Americans should never come to Europe," she said, and tried to laugh and began to cry, "it means they can never be happy again. What's the good of an American who isn't happy? Happiness is all we ever had."
~James Baldwin,
Giovanni's Room
"My love for Jared apparently extends to his BlackBerry."
~Siew
'I am growing up,' she thought, taking her taper at last. 'I am losing some illusions...perhaps to acquire others.'
~Virginia Woolf,

'When the sun shines more years than fear
when birds fly more miles than anger
when sky holds more birds
sails more cloud
shines more sun
than the palm of love carries hate
even then shall I in this weary
seventy-year banquet say, Sunwaiter,
Birdwaiter, Skywaiter,
I have no hunger,
remove my plate.'
~Janet Frame
"It's a love story and there's hardly much love around these days. I think people are sick of divisiveness, hate-mongering, disasters, war, loss and need and want a reminder that sometimes love comes along that is strong and permanent, and that it can happen to anyone."
~author Annie Proulx on
Brokeback Mountain
« La révolution n'est pas un dîner de gala ; elle ne se fait pas comme une œuvre littéraire, un dessin ou une broderie ; elle ne peut s'accomplir avec autant d'élégance, de tranquillité et de délicatesse, ou avec autant de douceur, d'amabilité, de courtoisie, de retenue et de générosité d'âme. La révolution, c'est un soulèvement,
un acte de violence par lequel une classe en
renverse une autre ».
~Mao
