Quotes:

Your theory is crazy, but it's not crazy enough to be true.
View quotes by Bertolt Brecht

What a life! True life is elsewhere. We are not in the world.
View quotes by Arthur Rimbaud

Dreams are true while they last, and do we not live in dreams?

View quotes by Alfred Lord Tennyson

From this amphibious ill-born mob began That vain, ill-natured thing, an Englishman. (The True-Born Englishman)
View quotes by Daniel Defoe

Mere parsimony is not economy. Expense, and great expense, may be an essential part in true economy.
View quotes by Edmund Burke

Writing stopped being fun when I discovered the difference between good writing and bad and, even more terrifying, the difference between it and true art. And after that, the whip came down.
View quotes by Truman Capote

Leave those vain moralists, my friend, and return to the depth of your soul: that is where you will always rediscover the source of the sacred fire which so often inflamed us with love of the sublime virtues; that is where you will see the eternal image of true beauty, the contemplation of which inspires us with a holy enthusiasm. (La Nouvelle Heloise)
View quotes by Jean Jacques Rousseau

Love is the true means by which the world is enjoyed: our love to others, and others love to us.
View quotes by Thomas Traherne

Yellow wakes me up in the morning. Yellow gets me on the bike every day. Yellow has taught me the true meaning of sacrifice. Yellow makes me suffer. Yellow is the reason I'm here.
View quotes by Lance Armstrong

Every citizen is king under a citizen king [ignoring that because of human nature being what it is, in practice that would never be true]
View quotes by Charles Favart

Technology has advanced more in the last thirty years than in the previous two thousand. The exponential increase in advancement will only continue. Anthropological Commentary: The opposite of a trivial truth is false; the opposite of a great truth is also true.
View quotes by Niels Bohr

On her relationship with Kym Marsh: 'Contrary to what everyone thinks, there had never been this almighty fight, half of me wishes there had been because then we could have made up. Instead we were both just reading the stories in the press, which weren't true, and filling in the gaps ourselves. You're bound to get it wrong - and we did. Kym said, 'Well I heard you said this' and I said, 'Well I heard you said this' and then we both burst out laughing because all of it was so made up'.
View quotes by Myleene Klass

I came into music just because I wanted the bread. It's true. I looked around and this seemed like the only way I was going to get the kind of bread I wanted.
View quotes by Mick Jagger

When you speak to tennis journalists, you notice how little they understand. [true - most tennis journalists don't!]
View quotes by Tim Henman

Good art however 'immoral' is wholly a thing of virtue. Good art can not be immoral. By good art I mean art that bears true witness, I mean the art that is most precise.
View quotes by Ezra Pound

The best part is it's a dream come true. I've always wanted to be a working actor, and the good part of it... it's all good! I work long hours, but it's amazing. They pay me. That's amazing! I get to kiss Keri Russell, and that ain't too bad.
View quotes by Scott Foley

False greatness is unsociable and remote: conscious of its own frailty, it hides, or at least averts its face, and reveals itself only enough to create an illusion and not be recognized as the meanness that it really is. True greatness is free, kind, familiar and popular; it lets itself be touched and handled, it loses nothing by being seen at close quarters; the better one knows it, the more one admires it.
View quotes by Jean De La Bruyere

There is great treasure there behind our skull and this is true about all of us. This little treasure has great, great powers, and I would say we only have learnt a very, very small part of what it can do.
View quotes by Isaac Singer

It is said that desire is a product of the will, but the converse is in fact true: will is a product of desire.
View quotes by Denis Diderot

A poem is true if it hangs together. Information points to something else. A poem points to nothing but itself.

View quotes by E M Forster
