- Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously. Hunter S. Thompson
- I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me. Hunter S. Thompson
- People say I make strange choices, but they’re not strange for me. My sickness is that I’m fascinated by human behavior, by what’s underneath the surface, by the worlds inside people. Johnny Depp
- I long so much to make beautiful things. But beautiful things require effort and disappointment and perseverance. Vincent van Gogh
- Being tender and open is beautiful. As a woman, I feel continually shhh’ed. Too sensitive. Too mushy. Too wishy washy. Blah blah. Don’t let someone steal your tenderness. Don’t allow the coldness and fear of others to tarnish your perfectly vulnerable beating heart. Nothing is more powerful than allowing yourself to truly be affected by things. Whether it’s a song, a stranger, a mountain, a rain drop, a tea kettle, an article, a sentence, a footstep, feel it all – look around you. All of this is for you. Take it and have gratitude. Give it and feel love. Zooey Deschanel
- Reality depresses me. I need to find fantasy worlds and escape in them. Noel Fielding
- Now every girl is expected to have Caucasian blue eyes, full Spanish lips, a classic button nose, hairless Asian skin with a California tan, a Jamaican dance hall ass, long Swedish legs, small Japanese feet, the abs of a lesbian gym owner, the hips of a nine-year-old boy, the arms of Michelle Obama, and doll tits. The person closest to actually achieving this look is Kim Kardashian, who, as we know, was made by Russian scientists to sabotage our athletes. Tina Fey
- Though I am often in the depths of misery, there is still calmness, pure harmony and music inside me. Vincent van Gogh
- There is no flag large enough to cover the shame of killing people. Howard Zinn
- I’ve been homesick for countries I’ve never been, and longed to be where I couldn’t be. John Cheever
- It’s not that I’ve been dishonest, it’s just that I loathe reality. Lady Gaga
- When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself. wayne dyer
- People that don't think is the thing that scares me the most. They just assume that everything's gonna be okay and that if 'I just do what I'm told to do I'm gonna be fine'. You're not. a film or something and i CAN'T REMEMBER
- For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream. Vincent van Gogh
- Go hard or go home, or go home and go hard. Tyler Posey
- If he was on fire, I wouldn't piss on him. Craig, regarding Ed Sheeran
- Two things I can't stand are food and time. Noel Fielding in Never Mind the Buzzcocks
- Every human person is inevitably involved with two worlds: the world they carry within them and the world that is out there. All thinking, all writing, all action, all creation and all destruction is about that bridge between the two worlds. All thought is about putting a face on experience… One of the most exciting and energetic forms of thought is the question. I always think that the question is like a lantern. It illuminates new landscapes and new areas as it moves. Therefore, the question always assumes that there are many different dimensions to a thought that you are either blind to or that are not available to you. So a question is really one of the forms in which wonder expresses itself. One of the reasons that we wonder is because we are limited, and that limitation is one of the great gateways to wonder. […] All thinking that is imbued with wonder is graceful and gracious thinking… And thought, if it’s not open to wonder, can be limiting, destructive and very, very dangerous. - John O'Donohue
- It is not unusual for us to feel that life is too much for us. And it is not unusual to feel that we really should be up to it; that there may be too much to cope with — too many demands — but that we should have the wherewithal to deal with it. Faced with the stresses and strains of everyday life it is easy now for people to feel that they are failing; and what they are failing at, one way or another, is managing the ordinary excesses that we are all beset by: too much frustration, too much bad feeling, too little love, too little success, and so on. One of the things people most frequently say in psychoanalysis is, ‘Perhaps I am overreacting, but . . .’; and one of the commonest complaints today is about feeling too much or feeling too little. I want to suggest that we are simply too much for ourselves, but that this too-muchness is telling us something important… My proposition is that it is impossible to overreact. That when we call our reactions overreactions what we mean is just that they are stronger than we would like them to be. In other words, we sometimes call ourselves and other people excessive as a way of invalidating or tempering the truths we tell ourselves or that other people tell us. It is impossible to overreact. - Adam Phillips
