    John Lennon, Yōko Ono, David Sheff, G. Barry Golson (1981). “The Playboy interviews with John Lennon and Yōko Ono”, Putnam Pub Group
  • Publicity in women is detestable. Anonymity runs in their blood. The desire to be veiled still possesses them.

    Virginia Woolf (2013). “Delphi Complete Works of Virginia Woolf (Illustrated)”, p.2645, Delphi Classics

They say 'Auschwitz' and 'Dresden' and 'Hiroshima' and 'Vietnam' and 'Napalm.' For many years we all woke up to the daily body count on the radio. And if there were a way to kill people with the B Minor Mass, the Pentagon-Madison Avenue axis would have found it.

    Death   Science   Axes  
    Erwin Chargaff (1977). “Voices in the labyrinth: nature, man, and science”, Harper San Francisco

  • Life is funny isn’t it? Just when you think you’ve got it all figured out, just when you finally begin to plan something, get excited about something, and feel like you know what direction you’re heading in, the paths change, the signs change, the wind blows the other way, north is suddenly south, and east is west, and you’re lost. It is so easy to lose your way, to lose direction. And that’s with following all the signposts

    Change   Blow   Thinking  
    Cecelia Ahern (2005). “Rosie Dunne”, Wheeler Pub Incorporated
  • Clothing is . . . an exercise in memory. It makes me explore the past: how did I feel when I wore that. They are like signposts in the search for the past.

    Art   Memories   Exercise  
    Jerry Gorovoy, Louise Bourgeois, Pandora Tabatabai Asbaghi, Paulo Herkenhoff, Fondazione Prada (Milan, Italy) (1997). “Louise Bourgeois: blue days and pink days”

  • You will say these are very small sins... [But] it does not matter how small the sins are provided that their cumulative effect is to edge the man away from the Light and out into the Nothing. Murder is no better than cards if cards can do the trick. Indeed, the safest road to Hell is the gradual one--the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts

    Men   Light   Doe  
    The Screwtape Letters ch. 12 (1941)
  • Your heart is like a great river after a long spell of rain, spilling over its banks. All signposts that once stood on the ground are gone, inundated and carried away by that rush of water. And still the rain beats down on the surface of the river. Every time you see a flood like that on the news you tell yourself: That’s it. That’s my heart.
