Ray Bradbury
“I got hold of the fire chief here in Los Angeles, and I said, “At what temperature does book paper catch fire and burn?” He said, “Just a moment, be right back.” He came back and said, “451 Fahrenheit.” And I thought, “Oh, that’s beautiful.” That’s absolutely beautiful. It’s perfect. So I reversed it, and said Fahrenheit 451, and there you have the title. And if we start using Celsius in the next few years, I will be severely disappointed.”
Ray Bradbury

Matthew McConaughey
“The arrival is inevitable: Death.
A unanimous end, a unified destination.
A noun without regard. Our eulogy. Written.
Lived.
The approach is relative: Life.
A singular procession, our personal journey.
A verb with regard. Our résumé. Write it.
Live it.”
Matthew McConaughey, Greenlights

Roger Ebert
“You can't go wrong if all of the characters in your movie are at least as intelligent as most of the characters in your audience.”
Roger Ebert

Lord Byron
“And this is in the night: Most glorious night!
Thou wert not sent for slumber! let me be
A sharer in thy fierce and far delight”
Lord Byron, Childe Harold's Pilgrimage

Marcus Aurelius
“Take away your judging thought, and then there is taken away the complaint, "I have been harmed." Take away the complaint, "I have been harmed," and the harm is taken away.”
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
