“We live in our minds, and existence is the attempt to bring that life into physical reality, to state it in gesture and form.”
― Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead

“An Evangelical who thinks the world is ending is called a religious fanatic; a liberal who thinks so is called an environmentalist.”—Dennis Prager * Allan Bloom, The Closing of the American Mind.”
― David Mamet, Recessional: The Death of Free Speech and the Cost of a Free Lunch

“So I wish you first a
Sense of theatre; only
Those who love illusion
And know it will go far:
Otherwise we spend our
Lives in a confusion
Of what we say and do with
Who we really are.”
― W.H. Auden

“Lovers running each to each
Feel such timid dreams catch fire
Blazing as they touch,
Learn what love alone can teach:
Happy on a tousled bed
Praise Blake's acumen who said:
'One thing only we require
Of each other; we must see
In another's lineaments
Gratified desire';
That is our humanity;
Nothing else contents.”
― W.H. Auden
