![]() "Later he forced himself into the kitchen to grind up the five-day accumulation of garbage in the sink. He knew he should burn up the paper plates and utensils too, and dust the furniture and wash out the sinks and the bathtub and toilet, and change the sheets and pillowcase on his bed; but he didn't feel like it. For he was a man and he was alone and these things had no importance to him." - I Am Legend (book by Richard Matheson) "I find myself within his eyes.
I long for more myself to know. He hears it seems my silent cries, And makes my heart my reasons foe. How can this be to love so quickly? Love does not wait is his reply. What magic weeaves his touch to trick me? How can I now my love deny?" - Dangerous Beauty (1998 film) with Catherine McCormack "Dumb move man, dumb move, but it's like them old reflexes coming back.

The street is watching, she is watching all the time." - Carlito's Way (1993 film) with Al Pacino "There is a fatality about all physical and intellectual distinction, the sort of fatality that seems to dog through history the faltering steps of kings.

They live as we all should live, undisturbed, indifferent, and without disquiet." - The Picture of Dorian Gray (book by Oscar Wilde)

He could straddle a goat and ride off into the sunset." - Encounters at the End of the World (documentary film by Werner Herzog 2007) "I dust a bit," Ignatius told the policeman. "In addition, I am at the moment writing a lengthy indictment against our century. When my brain begins to reel from my literary labors, I make an occasional cheese dip." - A Confederacy of Dunces (book by John Kennedy Toole)
"Uncompromising purpose and the search for eternal truth have an unquestionable sex appeal for the young and high-minded; but when a person loses the ability to take pleasure in the mundane--in the cigarette on the stoop or the gingersnap in the bath--she has probably put herself in unnecessary danger." - Rules of Civility (book by Amor Towles)
