"You are young. No hungry generations tread..." - Quote by Oscar Wilde

“Every impulse we strangle will only poison us.”

“A man who does not think for himself does not think at all.”

“On the whole, the great success of marriage in the States is due partly to the fact that no American man is ever idle, and partly to the fact that no American wife is considered responsible for the quality of her husband's dinners.”

“I never dared to be radical when young for fear it would make me conservative when old.”

“Before finding music, I didn't have too many aspirations. I wanted to hang out, make a little money from whatever I had to do.”

“As I approve of a youth that has something of the old man in him, so I am no less pleased with an old man that has something of the youth. He that follows this rule may be old in body, but can never be so in mind.”

“True, there are architects so called in this country, and I have heard of one at least possessed with the idea of making architectural ornaments have a core of truth, a necessity, and hence a beauty, as if it were a revelation to him. All very well perhaps from his point of view, but only a little better than the common dilettantism.”

“The world is beautiful, but has a disease called man.”

“As the skies appear to a man, so is his mind. Some see only clouds there; some, prodigies and portents; some rarely look up at all; their heads, like the brutes,' are directed toward Earth. Some behold there serenity, purity, beauty ineffable. The world runs to see the panorama, when there is a panorama in the sky which few go to see.”
