More From Baltasar Gracian

Do not be inaccessible. none is so perfect that he does not need at times the advice of others. he is an incorrigible ass who will never listen to any one. even the most surpassing intellect should find a place for friendly counsel. sovereignty itself must learn to lean. there are some that are incorrigible simply because they are inaccessible: they fall to ruin because none dares to extricate them. the highest should have the door open for friendship; it may prove the gate of help. a friend must be free to advise, and even to upbraid, without feeling embarrassed.
Fall Should Have Doors
There are as many forms of advice as there are colors of the rainbow. remember that good advice can come from bad people and bad advice from good people. the important thing about advice is that it is simply that. advice.

Advice Making Love Together
I need a good book i need a good story. i need a good book. the kind that explodes off the shelf. i need some good writing, alive and exciting, to contemplate all by myself. i need a good novel, i need a good read. i probably need two or three. i need a good tale of love and betrayal or perhaps an adventure at sea. i need a good saga. i need a good yarn. a momentous and mightily or slight one. but with thousands and thousands and thousands of books, i need someone to tell me the right one. -john lithgow
Betrayal Book Writing
None of us went to university, none of us went to college, none of us played in a different band before, none of us done anything. we were the last great band to come out of nowhere, on an indie label. we've sold 50 million records. that's still the benchmark. until someone does what we've done, i'll always consider myself the last big songwriter

Similar Quotes
The difference between prose logic and poetic thought is simple. the logician uses words as a builder uses bricks, for the unemotional deadness of his academic prose; and is always coining newer, deader words with a natural preference for greek formations. the poet avoids the entire vocabulary of logic unless for satiric purposes, and treats words as living creatures with a preference for those with long emotional histories dating from mediaeval times. poetry at its purest is, indeed, a defiance of logic.

Such are the differences among human beings in their sources of pleasure, their susceptibilities of pain, and the operation on them of different physical and moral agencies, that unless there is a corresponding diversity in their modes of life, they neither obtain their fair share of happiness, nor grow up to the mental, moral, and aesthetic stature of which their nature is capable.

Before they're plumbers or writers or taxi drivers or unemployed or journalists, before everything else, men are men. whether heterosexual or homosexual. the only difference is that some of them remind you of it as soon as you meet them, and others wait for a little while.
