"On the rare occasions when our dreams..." - Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche

“In every party there is one person who, through his dotingly credulous enunciation of party principles, incites the other members to defection.”

“Supposing truth is a woman -- what then?”

“Lightning and thunder need time, the light of the stars needs time, deeds need time, even after they are done, to be seen and heard.”

“I wake up with new dreams every day...more I can do to channel that into things that I love to create is healthier for me and probably for everybody around me.”

“The difference between a dreamer and a visionary is that a dreamer has his eyes closed and a visionary has his eyes open”

“The dividend I get [from my compulsion] is the freedom to be totally disorderly in my dreamworld.”

“Herein is the explanation of the analogies, which exist in all the arts. They are the re-appearance of one mind, working in many materials to many temporary ends. Raphael paints wisdom, Handel sings it, Phidias carves it, Shakspeare writes it, Wren builds it, Columbus sails it, Luther preaches it, Washington arms it, Watt mechanizes it. Painting was called "silent poetry," and poetry "speaking painting." The laws of each art are convertible into the laws of every other.”

“For poetry, he's past his prime,He takes an hour to find a rhyme;His fire is out, his wit decayed,His fancy sunk, his muse a jade.I'd have him throw away his pen,But there's no talking to some men.”

“Ideas result from the collision of metaphors inside the head.”
