Wrap these quotes around your noggin

"All perception of truth is the detection of an analogy"
-Henry David Thoreau

"A day without goals is like a day without sun"
-Alfredo DiStefano (the greatest soccer player to never play in the World Cup)

"The experience is there, the reality is there, but how to get at it? Everything I type turns into a lie simply because it is not the truth."
-Joyce Carol Oates

"Once, when a GI was visiting Pablo Picasso during the liberation of France, he said that he could not understand the artist’s paintings: “Why do you paint a person looking from the side and from the front at the same time?” Picasso asked, “Do you have a girlfriend?” “Yes,” replied the soldier. “Do you have a picture of her?” The soldier pulled from his wallet a photograph of the girl. Picasso looked at it in mock astonishment and asked, “Is she so small?”"
-Richard Kehl
