ARCHIVES. Category: quotes
Quotes. As famous quotes from notable people are easy enough to find, the ones offered here are mostly more obscure quotes that I thought worthwhile to mention. As well as some great lines that someone of my acquaintance said around me sometime that I thought just needed to be written down and shared.

The Quotable Kali

After I observed at a party that all the males there knew well how to dissect and discuss the minutiae of Star Trek, Batman, and anime, I couldn't help but mutter an aside to Kali as a particularly lively exchange about Batman movies raged on: "You know, I've heard this exact conversation before. Entirely different sets of people, too. Over and over for years."

Kali, deadpan: "It's the price we must pay for not having men who talk about football."

In the artist

In the artist of all kinds I think one can detect an inherent dilemma, which belongs to the co-existence of two trends, the urgent need to communicate, and the still more urgent need not to be found.
--D.W. Winnicott (British psychiatrist, 1896-1971)
