Distinguishes Quotes

Nor are they are a mirror to life or an explanation of life or a guide to life. Novels are life, or they are nothing Picture Quote #1

I think that what most artists are trying to do is trying to understand. I think what distinguishes creative people and/or artists from another type of person is perhaps a willingness to go headlong into that uncertainty Picture Quote #1

And what’s more, the people at the very top don’t work just harder or even much harder than everyone else. They work much, much harder Picture Quote #1

For a long time now I haven’t existed. I’m utterly calm. No one distinguishes me from who I am. I just felt myself breath as if I’d done something new, or done it late. I’m beginning to be conscious of being conscious. Perhaps tomorrow I will wake up to myself and resume the course of my existence. I don’t know if that will make more happy or less. I don’t know anything Picture Quote #1

I’m one of those people who was meant to have a very ordinary life. I have no special talent, no great beauty, nothing that distinguishes me from a hundred, thousand other girls. But I can’t go through an entire lifetime without at least one night of magic Picture Quote #1

You worthy critics, or whatever you may call yourselves, are ashamed or afraid of the momentary and passing madness which is found in all real creators, the longer or shorter duration of which distinguishes the thinking artist from the dreamer.

What distinguishes our species is thought. The cerebral cortex is in a way a liberation. We need no longer be trapped in the genetically inherited behavior patterns of lizards and baboons: territoriality and aggression and dominance hierarchies. We are each of us largely responsible for what gets put in to our brains. For what as adults we wind up caring for and knowing about. No longer at the mercy of the reptile brain we can change ourselves. Think of the possibilities Picture Quote #1

What distinguishes the majority of men from the few is their ability to act according to their beliefs Picture Quote #1

The ability to make love frivolously is the chief characteristic which distinguishes human beings from beasts Picture Quote #1
