Surely so many countries can't all be worth dying for.”
― Joseph Heller, Catch-22

“There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.”
― William Shakespear, Hamlet

“Absence diminishes small loves and increases great ones, as the wind blows out the candle and fans the bonfire.”
― Francois Duc de la Rochefoucauld, Maxims

“If you develop an ear for sounds that are musical it is like developing an ego. You begin to refuse sounds that are not musical and that way cut yourself off from a good deal of experience.”
― John Cage
