Dallas is where Kennedy was shot, and that's where I was put in jail.

I am the last of the Mohicans, the creme de la creme of cabaret.

"Ljubav je kao groznica: rađa se i nestaje, a da čovjekova volja pri tome nema nikakvog udjela."

"Kad netko vrši zločine, treba barem da ih vrši s užitkom; to je jedino dobro na njima i samo se time mogu donekle opravdati."

"Evo ti cijelog mog političkog života: volim glazbu i slikarstvo, a dobra je knjiga za mene doživljaj."

"Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you do criticize him, you'll be a mile away and have his shoes."

"Be so good they can't ignore you."

I have decided to find myself a home in the mountains, somewhere high up where one learns to live peacefully in the cold and the silence. It’s said that in such a place certain revelations may be discovered. That what the spirit reaches for may be eventually felt, if not exactly understood. Slowly, no doubt. I’m not talking about a vacation. Of course at the same time I mean to stay exactly where I am. Are you following me?”

“I had to go away for a few days so I called the kennel and made an appointment. I guess Bear overheard the conversation. “Love and company,” said Bear, “are the adornments that change everything. I know they’ll be nice to me, but I’ll be sad, sad, sad.” And pitifully he wrung his paws. I cancelled the trip.”

“Sing, if you can sing, and if not still be musical inside yourself.”

“I could not be a poet without the natural world. Someone else could. But not me. For me the door to the woods is the door to the temple.”

“You are young. So you know everything. You leap into the boat and begin rowing. But, listen to me. Without fanfare, without embarrassment, without doubt,I talk directly to your soul. Listen to me.”

“Oh Lord of melons, of mercy, though I am not ready, nor worthy, I am climbing towards you.”

“No, I'd never been to this country before. No, I didn't know where the roads would lead me. No, I didn't intend to turn back.”

“This is to say nothing against afternoons, evenings or even midnight. Each has its portion of the spectacular. But dawn — dawn is a gift. Much is revealed about a person about his or her passion, or indifference, to this opening of the door of day. No one who loves dawn, and is abroad to see it, could be a stranger to me.”

“What does it mean, say the words, that the earth is so beautiful? And what shall I do about it? What is the gift that I should bring to the world? What is the life that I should live?”

“What would the world be like without music or rivers or the green and tender grass? Would would this would be like without dogs?”

“Listen, are you breathing just a little, and calling it a life?”

“Knowledge has entertained me and it has shaped me and it has failed me. Something in me still starves.”

“You’re like a little wild thing that was never sent to school.”

“The patterns of our lives reveal us. Our habits measure us.”

“You too can be carved anew by the details of your devotion.”

“When it's over, I want to say all my life I was a bride married to amazement.”

“It is the nature of stone to be satisfied. It is the nature of water to want to be somewhere else.”
