Writing is easy. All you do is stare at a blank
sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead.
~ Gene Fowler, author of Border Radio : Quacks, Yodelers, Pitchmen,
Psychics, and Other Amazing Broadcasters of the American Airwaves
Get yourself in that intense state of being next
to madness. Keep yourself in, not necessarily a frenzied state,
but in a state of great intensity. The kind of state you would
be in before going to bed with your partner. That heightened state
when you're in a carnal embrace: time stops and nothing else matters.
You should always write with an erection. Even if you're a woman.
~ Tom Robbins, author of Still Life with a Woodpecker and Even
Cowgirls Get The Blues
“I made some studies, and reality is the leading
cause of stress amongst those in touch with it. I can take it
in small doses, but as a lifestyle, I found it too confining.
It was just too needful; it expected me to be there for it all
the time, and with all I have to do--I had to let something go.”
~ Trudy the Bag Lady from Jane Wagner's The Search for Signs of
Intelligent Life in the Universe
"When the power of love overcomes the love of power...
the world will know peace"
~ Jimi Hendrix
"Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens."
~ Jimi Hendrix
"Mountains it is then. We'll rent a cabin with
a hot tub, get naked, unwind, and shock the squirrels."
~Dane Hollister to Marlie Keen, Dream Man by Linda Howard, 1994
"When I'm there, I'm not here...I can't talk about
my singing; I'm inside it. How can you describe something you're
inside of?"
~Janis Joplin
“Being an intellectual creates a lot of questions
and no answers. You can fill your life up with ideas and still
go home lonely. All you really have that really matters are feelings.
That’s what music is to me.”
~Janis Joplin
"Wait a minute. Nice boys don't kiss like that."
(Bridget Jones)
"Oh, yes, they fucking do." (Mark Darcy)
~ Bridget Jones' Diary
"Dying is easy for men like us. It's living that's
hard."
~ Clint Eastwood as the Outlaw Josey Wales, 1976
“When a man lies, he murders some part of the world.”
~ Merlin, Excalibur, 1999
“I have walked my way since the beginning of time.
Sometimes I give, sometimes I take, it is mine to know which and
when!”
~ Merlin, Excalibur, 1999
