“I want upon death to be buried, just like in the old days, where I decompose by the action of microorganisms, and I am dined upon by any form of creeping animal or root system that sees fit to do so.... I will have recycled back to the universe at least some of the energy that I have taken from it. And in so doing, at the conclusion of my scientific adventures, I will have come closer to the heavens than to Earth.” WantActionEarthFormUniverseEnergyHeavenAnimalTakenAdventureFitRootsConclusionBuriedExtinctionWant UOld DaysRecycledMicroorganisms Author:Neil deGrasse Tyson
“The romantic temper, so often and so grievously misinterpreted and not more by others than by its own, is an insecure, unsatisfied, and impatient temper which sees no fit abode here for its ideals and chooses therefore to behold them under insensible figures. As a result of this choice it comes to disregard certain limitations. Its figures are blown to wild adventures, lacking the gravity of solid bodies, and the mind that has conceived them ends by disowning them.” MindEndsBodyCertainChoicesResultsFiguresAdventureFitIdealsLimitationTemperGravityLackingInsecureAestheticsImpatientRomanticismDisregardAbodeUnsatisfiedInsensibleMisinterpretedDisowning Author:James Joyce

“I kind of, I have quite a clear idea of what I'm trying to do with a record. A Super Furry Animals record is always an adventure, because there's five members of the group and everyone is a producer, we all throw in ideas, and regardless of who writes the song, the songs always get pushed around and shape-shifted to fit everyone in the band. So when I start a record with Super Furry Animals I can never predict how it'll turn out.” WritingTryingKindSongAnimalAdventureFitProducers Author:Gruff Rhys
“One person may need (or want) more leisure, another more work; one more adventure, another more security, and so on. It is this diversity that makes a country, indeed a state, a city, a church, or a family, healthy. 'One-size-fits-all,' and that size determined by the State has a name, and that name is 'slavery.'” WantNeedsMayPersonsCountryStatesNamesChurchCitiesSecurityAdventureFitHealthyDiversitySlaverySizeDeterminedLeisureOne Size Fits All Author:David Mamet
