Filed under: Books, Humour, Quotations — Tags: — Nicholas @ 01:00

31 Fantasy is an exercise bicycle for the mind. It might not take you anywhere, but it tones up the muscles that can.

32 The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they’ve found it.

33 It’s still magic even if you know how it’s done.

34 There are times in life when people must know when not to let go. Balloons are designed to teach small children this.

35 The entire universe has been neatly divided into things to (a) mate with, (b) eat, (c) run away from, and (d) rocks.

36 Here’s some advice boy. Don’t put your trust in revolutions. They always come around again. That’s why they’re called revolutions.

37 If you don’t turn your life into a story, you just become a part of someone else’s story.

38 Evil begins when you begin to treat people as things.

39 Inside every sane person there’s a madman struggling to get out.

40 I’m not writing ‘The A-Team’ – if there’s a fight going on, people will get hurt. Not letting this happen would be a betrayal.
