In true Nina fashion, I'm going out with a list, this time of quotes that I have encountered over the past 4 years. Enjoy.

  • Once in his life, every man is entitled to fall madly in love with a gorgeous redhead. -Lucille Ball
  • If you can planning a career in the theatre, you must keep certain core principles in front of you: you must watch. You must listen. You must share. You must learn to breathe together with others. You must respect your work. You must respect the creativity in the air around you. And you must relearn how to play. -Chita Rivera
  • The most wasted of all days is one without laughter. -e.e. cummings
  • You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough. -Mae West
  • Never shall I forget the days I spent with you. Continue to be my friend, as you will always find me yours. -Ludwig van Beethoven
  • Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth. -Oscar Wilde
  • In your life, you meet people. Some you never think about again. Some, you wonder what happenend to them. There are some that you wonder if they ever think about you. And then there are some you wish you never had to think about again. But you do. -The Wonder Years
  • There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief...and unspeakable love. -Washington Irving
  • From such a gentle thing, from such a fountain of all delight, my every pain is born. -Michelangelo
  • Ti amo, ti voglio, per sempre. -Graffiti on the Arezzo Aqueducts
  • Maybe we should develop a Crayola bomb as our next secret weapon. A happiness weapon. A beauty bomb. And every time a crisis developed, we would launch one. It would explode high in the air - explode softly - and send thousands, millions, of little parachutes into the air. Floating down to earth - boxes of Crayolas. And people would smile and get a little funny look on their faces and cover the world with imagination. -Anonymous
  • Life doesn't make any sense, and we all pretend it does. Comedy's job is to point out that it doesn't make sense, and that it doesn't make much difference anyway. - Eric Idle
  • I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together. -Marilyn Monroe
  • Let us toast to animal pleasures, to escapism, to rain on the roof and instant coffee, to unemployment insurance and library cards, to absinthe and good-hearted landlords, to music and warm bodies and contraceptives... and to the "good life" whatever it is and wherever it happens to be. -Hunter S. Thompson
  • No one likes you clown, because you're stupid. Stupid clown. - Eli Simon
  • Flying is learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. - Douglas Adams
  • I keep my friends as misers do their treasure, because, of all the things granted us by wisdom, none is greater or better than friendship. -Pietro Aretino
  • If you listen carefully, your lips remember their first kiss and their first loss, your body remembers the places of hurt and the places of pleasure. -Tim Miller, queer performance artist
  • You may forget but let me tell you this: someone in some future time will think of us. - Sappho
  • Judgment equals death. Get out your notebooks and write that down, I think you will want to remember that. - Francine Roussell
