Text Quotes
We attempted perfection; we wanted an object to be without flaw, so we cut the papers with a razor, pasted them down meticulously, but it buckled and was ruined... that is why we decided to tear prewrinkled paper, so that in the finished work of art imperfection would be an integral part, as if at birth death were built in  (Zo Quotes) I don’t read novels whilst I’m writing one; I just haven’t got a wide enough brain to concentrate on incoming and outgoing in the same time zone  (Zo Quotes) I’ve been making pizza dough lately. And I’m pretty sure the calzone was invented when a pizza got stuck on the peel  (Zo Quotes) Perfume opens endless horizons. It appeals both to the senses and to the imagination. Like an enchantment, it works on an instinctive level and at the same time is extremely subtle  (Zo Quotes) A man whose yesterdays rest on his horizon travels forward into his past. The result is that he goes a very long way to nowhere  (Zo Quotes) I remember I was a child, and when I grew up I was a poet. It all happened at sixty miles an hour and on days when the clock stopped and all of humanity fit into a little chapel, into a pinecone, a shot of ouzo, a snail’s shell, a piece of soggy rye on the pavement  (Zo Quotes) I create enclosed spaces mainly by means of thick concrete walls. The primary reason is to create a place for the individual, a zone for oneself within society. When the external factors of a city’s environment require the wall to be without openings, the interior must be especially full and satisfying  (Zo Quotes) I had never liked, even feared a little, this wild reach of marsh and mud flats where everything seemed turned away from the land, looking off desperately toward the horizon as if in mute search for a sign of rescue  (Zo Quotes) Since art is a virtue of the intellect, it demands to communicate with the entire universe of the intellect. Hence it is that the normal climate of art is intelligence and knowledge: its normal soil, the civilized heritage of a consistent and integrated system of beliefs and values; its normal horizon, the infinity of human experience enlighted by the passionate insight of anguish or the intellectual virtues of a contemplative mind  (Zo Quotes) I never really worried about those hurdles. They were just standing there, and I was always zooming past them just to get back on the ground again  (Zo Quotes) The best we can hope for in this life is a knothole peek at the shining realities ahead. Yet a glimpse is enough. It’s enough to convince our hearts that whatever sufferings and sorrow currently assail us aren’t worthy of comparison to that which waits over the horizon  (Zo Quotes) Now is not the time to shrink from the challenge of saving our only home in the universe. Now is not the time to pull into ourselves, retreating into either survivalist or escapist mode. To the contrary, this is the time for titans, not turtles. Now is the time to open our arms, expand our horizons, and dream big. Big problems require big solutions  (Zo Quotes) It was a play of opportunity. It’s certainly something that he can do. He has the wherewithal to do that. It’s a concern when we are backed into our own endzone. The reality is I want him to take that advantage. It’s like leaving a net untended and you’re supposed to pass, but damn you got to take a shot. Certainly represented what we wanted to happen  (Zo Quotes) I was just walking around like a zombie.. I really had no idea what I was doing.. But the best thing that I did do was leave and get the hell out of there. I have no regrets  (Zo Quotes) Harmony comes gradually to a pilot and his plane. The wing does not want so much to fly true as to tug at the hands that guide it; the ship would rather hunt the wind than lay her nose to the horizon far ahead. She has a derelict quality in her character; she toys with freedom and hints at liberation, but yields her own desires gently  (Zo Quotes) Besides, the bass isn’t a difficult instrument to play. It’s like one step up from the kazoo, isn’t it?  (Zo Quotes) What you believe matters, however. It’s all anyone has to act on. And since what you do is who you are, your actions define you. If you don’t believe anything is true simply because you can’t logically prove what’s true, you won’t do anything. You won’t be anything. You’ll end up spending your life in a rocking chair looking out at the horizon waiting for an answer that never comes. You might as well be dead. It’s an old philosophical problem  (Zo Quotes) Organic life, we are told, has developed gradually from the protozoon to the philosopher, and this development, we are assured, is indubitably an advance. Unfortunately it is the philosopher, not the protozoon, who gives us this assurance  (Zo Quotes) At the last dim horizon, we search among ghostly errors of observations for landmarks that are scarcely more substantial. The search will continue. The urge is older than history. It is not satisfied and it will not be oppressed  (Zo Quotes) We can’t float through life. We can’t be incidental or accidental. We must fix our gaze on a guiding star as soon as one comes upon the horizon and once we have attached ourselves to that star we must keep our eyes on it and our hands upon the plow. It is the consistency of the pursuit of the highest possible vision that you can find in front of you that gives you the constancy, that gives you the encouragement, that gives you the way to understand where you are and why it’s important for you to do what you can do  (Zo Quotes) ... if you wanted to chart new territories and head off over the horizon, you had to make sure you weren’t overly influenced by what others were doing... so it didn’t matter what other bands were doing... we did what we were doing  (Zo Quotes) No matter how much the government controls the economic system, any problem will be blamed on whatever small zone of freedom that remains  (Zo Quotes) Maybe we all want to burn off across the horizon, into space, perhaps, to take off into some unknown territory and meet ourselves out there  (Zo Quotes) I’m continually trying to make choices that put me against my own comfort zone. As long as you’re uncomfortable, it means you’re growing  (Zo Quotes) The zone is a place that you rarely visit. It’s not some place you go every week. The zone is sacred ground  (Zo Quotes) Cities have a psychogeographical relief, with constant currents, fixed points and vortexes which strongly discourage entry into or exit from certain zones  (Zo Quotes) You need to get outside of your comfort zone to write songs that are interesting, songs that are compelling, songs that are different from what other people are writing  (Zo Quotes) There was neither horizon, cloud, nor sound; of that pink, spread silence even I had become part, belonging as much to sky as to earth  (Zo Quotes) Many discouraging hours will arise before the rainbow of accomplished goals will appear on the horizon  (Zo Quotes) The only place that work and motion are the same thing is the zoo where people pay to see the animals move around  (Zo Quotes)
