Quote by Steve Martin

“I know we've only known each other four weeks and three days, but to me it seems like nine weeks and five days. The first day seemed like a week and the second day seemed like five days. And the third day seemed like a week again and the fourth day seemed like eight days. And the fifth day you went to see your mother and that seemed just like a day, and then you came back and later on the sixth day, in the evening, when we saw each other, that started seeming like two days, so in the evening it seemed like two days spilling over into the next day and that started seeming like four days, so at the end of the sixth day on into the seventh day, it seemed like a total of five days. And the sixth day seemed like a week and a half. I have it written down, but I can show it to you tomorrow if you want to see it.”

“Bosch was not possessed by a deranged spirit but the possessor of a cool, calculating mind. His supreme mastery of the arts is proved by his ability to paint cerebrally constructed devils, of which the component parts each has its own meaning. This, in short, is genius, and modern art historians who see Bosch as a surrealist have been led astray by it. Bosch had a keen eye for the demonic element in what he observed (e.g. in colours and human faces) and he understood and knew exactly how to make use of it and achieve the desired effects.”

“Have you ever found a flower, simple and modest, in a dark grove, in the young spring grass? (You were alone, in a foreign land.) It waited for you, in the dewy grass , it blossomed alone... And for you, its pure scent, its first scent, it saved. And you pluck the fragile stem. With a careful hand, you thread it into your buttonhole, with a slow smile, the flower you destroyed. And so, you walk along a dusty road; All around, the entire field is burnt, Abundant heat pours from the sky, And your flower has long since withered. It grew in the calm shade, Nourished by the morning rain, And was eaten away by the scorching dust, Scorched by the midday ray. So what? Regret is in vain! It must have been created to stay for a moment In the vicinity of your heart.”
