1984 by George Orwell
"It would be possible to get inside that glassy world, and that once inside it time could be arrested."
"What you say or do doesn't matter: only feelings matter. If they could make me stop loving you -- that would be the real betrayal.'"
"But if the object was not to stay alive but to stay human, what difference did it ultimately make? They could not alter your feelings: for that matter you could not alter them yourself, even if you wanted to. They could lay bare in the utmost detail everything that you had done or said or thought; but the inner heart, whose workings were mysterious even to yourself, remained impregnable."
"Why should the fruit be held inferior to flower?."
"If you want to keep secret, you must hide it also from yourself."

Steve Jobs during Stanford speech
"The heaviness of being successful has been replaced by lightness of being a beginner again".
"Sometimes, life gonna hit you on the head with a brick, don't loose your faith."
"Keep looking, don't settle."

Watchmen
"I heard a joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life is harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. The great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor... I am Pagliacci." Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum. Curtains."
"Never compromise. Not even in the face of Armageddon. That's always been the difference between us, Dan."
"A living body and a dead body have the same number of particles. Structurally there's no difference."

A Good Year
"Obligatory cultural activity."
"This place doesn't suite my life." "No Max it's your life which doesn't suite this place."
"I am famously callous, even to the point of being insensitive. I have absolute inability to trust anyone."
"Maximillian, ask me, what is the most important thing in comedy." What is the most important thing in comedy?" "Timing."
"Wining isn't everything, it's the only thing."
"Wisdom is found at most unusual places."
