Terry Southern
“The important thing in writing is the capacity to astonish. Not shock—shock is a worn-out word—but astonish.”
Terry Southern

Stephen Vincent Benét
“There is a wilderness we walk alone

Stephen Vincent Benét, Western Star

David Hockney
“I think I’m greedy, but I’m not greedy for money - I think that can be a burden - I’m greedy for an exciting life.”
David Hockney

Nora Ephron
