Some Art Quotes

Art is the imposing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recognition of the pattern. - Alfred North Whitehead

Painting: The art of protecting flat surfaces from the weather and exposing them to the critic. - Ambrose Bierce

Art is born of the observation and investigation of nature. - Cicero

Art forms of the past were really considered elitist. Bach did not compose for the masses, neither did Beethoven. It was always for patrons, aristocrats, and royalty. Now we have a sort of democratic version of that, which is to say that the audience is so splintered in its interests. - David Cronenberg

Works of art, in my opinion, are the only objects in the material universe to possess internal order, and that is why, though I don't believe that only art matters, I do believe in Art for Art's sake. - E. M. Forster

Illusions are art, for the feeling person, and it is by art that you live, if you do. - Elizabeth Bowen

I don't believe in total freedom for the artist. Left on his own, free to do anything he likes, the artist ends up doing nothing at all. If there's one thing that's dangerous for an artist, it's precisely this question of total freedom, waiting for inspiration and all the rest of it. - Federico Fellini

When people start copying your style, you know that something must be happening.

This s@#$ (AIDS) scares me. You know, one time and you're dead! Touring is the dangerous part. A lot of bands are going to be in trouble the way they carry on. I mean, we've been pretty bad, but on the last tour, no way! It was kinda, 'Screw that!' Some of the roadies are pretty sick, as far as wearing rubbers or whatever. I don't know. I've never done that before...ha ha ha...and that's only MAYBE safe. It's very unhappening, this whole thing.

Requiem for a Dream Quotes

Here are some memorable quotes from the popular and yet unpopular movie "Requiem for a Dream":

Purple in the morning, blue in the afternoon, and orange in the evening. Just like that, one, two, three, four.

I love you Harry. You make me feel like a person.
Marion, you are the most beautiful girl in the world. You are my dream.

I love you, Harry. You make me feel like a person. Like I'm me... and I'm beautiful.
I love you, Harry. You make me feel like a person. Like I'm me... and I'm beautiful.

That's nice, Harry. Other people have told me that before, and it was meaningless. When you say it, I hear it.

Somebody like you can really make things all right for me.

That's the trouble with ya New York dope fiends. Ya got a rotten attitude.

I'm somebody now, Harry. Everybody likes me. Soon, millions of people will see me and they'll all like me. I'll tell them about you, and your father, how good he was to us. Remember? It's a reason to get up in the morning. It's a reason to lose weight, to fit in the red dress. It's a reason to smile. It makes tomorrow all right. What have I got Harry, hm? Why should I even make the bed, or wash the dishes? I do them, but why should I? I'm alone. Your father's gone, you're gone. I got no one to care for. What have I got, Harry? I'm lonely. I'm old.
You got friends, Ma.
Ah, it's not the same. They don't need me. I like the way I feel. I like thinking about the red dress and the television and you and your father. Now when I get the sun, I smile.

California, here we come.
It's Florida, Ty. Florida.
California, Florida, whatever. Either way, your pale ass is getting a tan.

Paris Hilton Quotes

The only rule is don't be boring.

I got my eye on you boy, and when I get my eye on something, it's like search and destroy.

A lot of women feel it's a man's world. Some people think all you need to do is marry a rich guy, and you don't need to do anything with your life.... I would hate that.

Life is too short to blend in.

I'm judged because of something that an ex-boyfriend did to me. I'm not a slut at all. I've only had a few boyfriends. And I don't even do anything with anyone--it's just the media making stuff up ... I'm far less promiscuous than any of my friends.

I'm totally normal. I think it's obnoxious when people demand limos or bodyguards. I eat at McDonald's or Taco Bell. My parents always taught us to be humble. We're not spoiled.

At parties, everyone always thinks I'm drinking--but actually I rarely drink. I live on energy drinks, basically. I LOVE Vitamin Water. I have cases in my house. I drink energy drinks and Vitamin Water all night. That's how I manage to stay up late and never smudge my makeup or mess up my hair. You can see all these girls leaving a party at the end of the night, and they look terrible because they were too out of it to reapply their makeup or even glance in a mirror. This is a huge mistake. People remember how you look when you leave as much as they remember how you looked when you arrived.

Kanye West Quotes

I don't know whats better gettin laid or gettin paid.

Keep your nose out the sky, keep your heart to god, and keep your face to the raising sun.

Now I can let these dream killers kill my self esteem-or use my arrogance as steam to power my dreams!

If you see a black family, it's looting, but if it's a white family they are looking for food.

Got a light skinned friend, look like Michael Jackson,
Got a dark skinned friend, look like Michael Jackson.

Thank god im not too cool for the safebelt.

Hopefully I can become the Babe Ruth of the World Wrestling Federation and be the champion at the same time.

If I do hit that rope and do a hop, skip and a jump and get up as high as I can, I'm just going to hold my breath, because I know i'm going to hear all kinds of scar tissue popping.

I feel really good right now. It will really be a tough decision. It's so hard to give up what you love doing. Hanging up the boots will not be an easy thing to do.
