Francis Bacon
“There is no exquisite beauty… without some strangeness in the proportion.”
Francis Bacon

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“There is nothing in the world more difficult than candor, and nothing easier than flattery. If there is a hundredth of a fraction of a false note to candor, it immediately produces dissonance, and as a result, exposure. But in flattery, even if everything is false down to the last note, it is still pleasant, and people will listen not without pleasure; with coarse pleasure, perhaps, but pleasure nevertheless.”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Francis Bacon
“Read not to contradict and confute, nor to believe and take for granted ...but to weigh and consider.”
Francis Bacon

Steve Coogan
“I love Sherlock Holmes. I've got all his books, leather-bound. What I thought was great about Sherlock Holmes was that not only was he a supersleuth, he was also a hard worker. Not only did he go out and solve the crimes, he came home and wrote it all down. Fantastic. That's why I admire him.”
Steve Coogan, Alan Partridge: Every Ruddy Word : All the Scripts: From Radio to TV and Back
