Vivienne Westwood // "The sexiest people are thinkers."
Alan Moore // "I hope that the world turns and that things get better. But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that even though I do not know you, and even though I may never meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you. I love you. With all my heart, I love you."
Chuck Palahniuk // "Find joy in everything you choose to do. Every job, relationship, home... it's your responsibility to love it, or change it."
Tom Waits // "Never have your wallet with you onstage. It's bad luck. You shouldn't play the piano with money in your pocket. Play like you need the money."
Barack Obama // "I will never apologize for saying that the future of humanity and the future of the world is going to be defined by what we have in common, as opposed to those things that separate us and ultimately lead us into conflict... My vision is right...it may not always win the day in the short-term...but I'm confident it will win the day in the long-term. Because societies in which we are able to unify ourselves around values and ideals and character and how we treat each other and cooperation and innovation, ultimately are going to be more successful than societies that don't. That's my strong belief."
Elvis Presley // "Do something worth remembering."
Martin Luther King Jr. // "The trouble isn't so much that our scientific genius lags behind, but our moral genius lags behind. The great problem facing modern man is that, that the means by which we live have outdistanced the spiritual ends for which we live... The problem is with man himself and man's soul. We haven't learned how to be just and honest and kind and true and loving... that is the real basis of our problem."
Rick Owens // "The coolest thing is when you don't care about being cool."
Stephen Hawking // "Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change."
Lauren Bacall // "You don't always win your battles, but it's good to know you fought."
John Burroughs // "A man can fail many times, but he isn't a failure until he begins to blame somebody else."
Leonard Cohen // "We don’t want to live a frivolous life, we don’t want to live a superficial life. We want to be serious with each other, with our friends, with our work. That doesn’t necessarily mean gloomy or grim, but seriousness...is something that we are deeply hungry for, to take ourselves seriously and to be able to enjoy the nourishment of seriousness, that gravity, that weight."
