“I think its good to just say what you're thinking out loud. Some guy comes up to you on the street and starts asking a bunch of personal questions, you can say 'Whoa, this is weird behavior, I don't know you. You seem like a predator.' If he gets mad and calls you a "bitch", it doesn't mean you're a bitch, it just means you were right." -Karen Kilgariff”
Karen Kilgariff, Stay Sexy & Don't Get Murdered: The Definitive How-To Guide

Andrea Moro
“The brain is a trashcan, though perhaps the best of all possible trashcans.”
Andrea Moro, The Boundaries of Babel: The Brain and the Enigma of Impossible Languages

Karl Ove Knausgård
“
I have a theory, almost all writers I know of are in some way or another… wrecked, or destroyed, you know, something is broken. Why should you write if that’s not so? I mean it takes so much to write, why should you bother?”
Karl Ove Knausgård

Andrea Moro
“Biology, list history, is not built with 'if's.”
Andrea Moro, The Boundaries of Babel: The Brain and the Enigma of Impossible Languages

“Never practice more than three or four hours a day. No one can concentrate longer than that, and you must spend the rest of your time learning about life and love and art and all the other wonderful things in the world. If a young person sits in the practice room all day, what can he possibly have to express in his music?”
Arthur Rubenstein
