Ernest Hemingway

"His talent was as natural as the pattern that was made by the dust on a butterfly's wings. At one time he understood it no more than the butterfly did and he did not know when it was brushed or marred. Later he became conscious of his damaged wings and of their construction and he learned to think and could not fly any more because the love of flight was gone and he could only remember when it had been effortless."

Ernest Hemingway

"Life is a disease: sexually transmitted, and invariably fatal."

Neil Gaiman

"You will always be fond of me. I represent to you all the sins you never had the courage to commit."

Oscar Wilde

"Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut."

Ernest Hemingway

"Sometimes when I'm talking, my words can't keep up with my thoughts. I wonder why we think faster than we speak. Probably so we can think twice."

Bill Watterson
