“Pick the day. Enjoy it - to the hilt. The day as it comes. People as they come... The past, I think, has helped me appreciate the present - and I don't want to spoil any of it by fretting about the future.†(Audrey Hepburn) “What is sad for women of my generation is that they weren't supposed to work if they had families. What were they going to do when the children are grown - watch the raindrops coming down the window pane?†(Jacqueline Bouvier Onassis Kennedy) "Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night" (Edgar Allan Poe) “Boring damned people. All over the earth. Propagating more boring damned people. What a horror show. The earth swarmed with them.†(Charles Bukowski) "Sapevo che ogniqualvolta riscuotevo denari dalla giacca, avveniva nel mondo qualcosa di turpe e doloroso. Ma era pur sempre una consapevolezza vaga, non sostenuta da logiche prove. Intanto a ogni mia nuova riscossione, la coscienza mia si degradava, diventando sempre più vile" (Dino Buzzati - La giacca stregata da "Il colombre") "Niente di tutto questo è colpa di nessuno tranne che mia. Sono scappata perchè farmi ricostruire la mascella era una tentazione troppo forte per tornare indietro, per fare ancora quel gioco, il gioco di essere bella. Adesso il mio futuro intero è ancora li fuori che mi aspetta. La verità è che essere brutta non è emozionante come si crederebbe, ma può essere un'opportunità per qualcosa di meglio di quanto avrei mai potuto immaginare." (Chuck Pahalaniuk - Invisible monsters) Come here. Hey! Look at me. So I had a wife, beautiful, like you, who tells me I worry too much. Who tells me I ought to smile more. Who gambles and gets in deep with the sharks... look at me! One day, they carve her face. And we have no money for surgeries. She can't take it. I just want to see her smile again, hmm? I just want her to know that I don't care about the scars. So... I stick a razor in my mouth and do this...to myself. And you know what? She can't stand the sight of me! She leaves. Now I see the funny side. Now I'm always smiling!" (from "The Dark Knight") "Stephane: in dreams emotions are overwhelming" (from "The science of sleep")
