Who hasn't thought about killing themselves, as a kid? How can you grow up in this world and not think about it? It's an option taken by a lot of successful people: Ernest Hemingway, Socrates, Jesus. Even before high school, I thought that it would be a cool thing to do if I ever got really famous. If I kept making my maps, for instance, and some art collector came across them and decided to make them worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, if I killed myself at the height of that, they'd be worth millions of dollars, and I wouldn't be responsible for them anymore. I'd have left behind something that spoke for itself. ~ Ned Vizzini
Art Collector quotes by Ned Vizzini
Orna Davidzon : the avant-garde queen of private art collection ... ~ Imran Shaikh
Art Collector quotes by Imran Shaikh
Who am I? Who am I?"
"You're Jude St. Francis. You are my oldest, dearest friend. You're the son of Harold Stein and Julia Altman. You're the friend of Malcolm Irvine, of Jean-Baptiste Marion, of Richard Goldfarb, of Andy Contractor, of Lucien Voigt, of Citizen van Straaten, of Rhodes Arrowsmith, of Elijah Kozma, of Phaedra de los Santos, of the Henry Youngs. You're a New Yorker. You live in SoHo. You volunteer for an arts organization; you volunteer for a food kitchen. You're a swimmer. You're a baker. You're a cook. You're a reader. You have a beautiful voice, though you never sing anymore. You're an excellent pianist. You're an art collector. You write me lovely messages when I'm away. You're patient. You're generous. You're the best listener I know. You're the smartest person I know, in every way. You're the bravest person I know, in every way. You're a lawyer. You're the chair of the litigation department at Rosen Pritchard and Klein. You love your job; you work hard at it. You're a mathematician. You're a logician. You've tried to teach me, again and again. You were treated horribly. You came out on the other end. You were always you."

"And who are you?"
"I'm Willem Ragnarsson. And I will never let you go. ~ Hanya Yanagihara
Art Collector quotes by Hanya Yanagihara
Mister Dresden," he said. "And Miss Rodriguez, I believe. I didn't realize you were an art collector."
"I am the foremost collector of velvet Elvii in the city of Chicago," I said at once.
"Elvii?" Marcone inquired.
"The plural could be Elvises, I guess," I said. "But if I say that too often, I start muttering to myself and calling things 'my precious,' so I usually go with the Latin plural. ~ Jim Butcher
Art Collector quotes by Jim Butcher
Henry Clay Frick (1849-1919), the industrialist and prodigious art collector. It is said that he liked to wander through his gallery at night in quiet contemplation. ~ Anonymous
Art Collector quotes by Anonymous
My wife was the first art collector in the family, and I didn't become interested until around 1973. The first important artwork we bought was a Van Gogh drawing of two peasant houses in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer. ~ Eli Broad
Art Collector quotes by Eli Broad
Everywhere you walk, every place you go is full of art, explicit or hidden! If you can see them, you will be the richest art collector and your memory will be the richest art gallery! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Art Collector quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
If the choice is between investment in old masters or an artwork of Raphael Perez, I'd go for the Raphael Perez every time .. ~ Imran Shaikh
Art Collector quotes by Imran Shaikh
My mum is a big collector of art. ~ Agnes Obel
Art Collector quotes by Agnes Obel
Food and sex have been bound together for a long time. I guess this is due to the intimate connection between the two most powerful instincts that predominate in life: the instinct to survive and the instinct to multiply. Nourishment and sex give us a great sense of pleasure. Having the wisdom to satisfy both desires - for food and sex - is the art of living well. I truly believe that this wisdom lies within us all. ~ Ori Hofmekler
Art Collector quotes by Ori Hofmekler
I haven't the slightest idea what art is, but to be a painter is something of which you have to prove. ~ Wayne Thiebaud
Art Collector quotes by Wayne Thiebaud
A man is most happy when he is most perfect, and he is most perfect when all his faculties are proportionately and harmoniously developed. Thus developed, nature and art and society supply him with a thousand sources of enjoyment. ~ Joseph P. Bradley
Art Collector quotes by Joseph P. Bradley
The purpose of art is nothing less than the upliftment of the human spirit. ~ Pope John Paul II
Art Collector quotes by Pope John Paul II
I think that's true of all cinema, that's why cinema is the great humanistic art form. Whatever the film is, it doesn't matter what the film is about, or even whether it's a narrative or figurative film at all, it's an invitation to step into somebody else's shoes. Even if it's the filmmaker's shoes filming a landscape, you go into somebody else's shoes and you look out of their lens, you look out of their eyes and their imagination. That's what going to the pictures is all about. ~ Tilda Swinton
Art Collector quotes by Tilda Swinton
A great work of art is something as real as reality itself, and sometimes even more real than the real. Long after this war is forgotten, when its existence is a paragraph in a schoolbook students won't even bother to read, and everyone who survived it is dead, their bodies dust, their memories atom, their emotions no longer in motion, this work of art will still shine so brightly it will not just be about the war but it will be the war. (178) ~ Viet Thanh Nguyen
Art Collector quotes by Viet Thanh Nguyen
Wherever at least two art lovers meet, Vincent Van Gogh's name is holy. ~ Irving Stone
Art Collector quotes by Irving Stone
I was very prejudiced when I started arts school. I, like all of those kids, was like, "I don't like this modern stuff." I came to arts school with a very stupid, conservative set of ideas about art. ~ Ragnar Kjartansson
Art Collector quotes by Ragnar Kjartansson
In the sky we had rediscovered the moving principle of any work of art: the light, and the motion of color. ~ Sonia Delaunay
Art Collector quotes by Sonia Delaunay
The art is in preparing the content for optimal human consumption. The data doesn't just talk back to you. You collect, you analyze, you tell stories. ~ Leslie Bradshaw
Art Collector quotes by Leslie Bradshaw
You are surrounded by beauty, the wonder of Creation, art, your music and culture, the sounds of laughter and love, of whispered hopes and celebrations, of new life and transformation, of reconciliation and forgiveness. These also are the results of your choices and every choice matters, even the hidden ones. ~ Wm. Paul Young
Art Collector quotes by Wm. Paul Young
All things are artificial, for nature is the art of God. ~ Thomas Browne
Art Collector quotes by Thomas Browne
Realism in so far as it means Reality to life is always bad art. ~ Sherwood Anderson
Art Collector quotes by Sherwood Anderson
Try this exercise:

Make a list of whatever is going wrong in your life, from the biggest events to the most trivial items, and then beside that list write down everything and everyone you want to blame for that particular problem. For instance, let's say you think you're too fat. If you want to blame it on McDonald's cheeseburgers, then write that down. Perhaps you just don't normally feel well. If you want to blame that feeling on a bad doctor or on the pollen in the air, then write that down. Maybe you can't find a suitable partner. If you want to blame that on the argument that "men are creeps," then write that down.

Now look at your list. Ask yourself if you are any different now that you know exactly what or who to blame, and then ask yourself if that has helped you come up with a more constructive program to solve your problems.

Not a very positive picture, is it? Wouldn't it be better simply to decide to eliminate all blame from your life and focus instead on what you can do to rid yourself of the unhappiness that afflicts you? Wouldn't it be better to evaluate all the stones that you are carrying in your own bag of life--your stones of resentment, anger, and spite?

Blaming will not change you. It only gives you some shallow justification for continuing to look outside yourself, rather than turning inward and rebuilding your life. ~ Art E. Berg
Art Collector quotes by Art E. Berg
THEATRE HAS THE POWER TO MOVE, INSPIRE, TRANSFORM AND EDUCATE IN WAYS THAT NO OTHER ART FORM CAN. THEATRE REFLECTS BOTH THE EXTRAORDINARY DIVERSITY OF CULTURES AND OUR SHARED HUMAN CONDITION, IN ALL ITS VULNERABILITY AND STRENGTH. ~ Irina Bokova
Art Collector quotes by Irina Bokova
The reordering of the luminous fibers is a very sophisticated art. It's not something anyone should ever undertake without supervision. ~ Frederick Lenz
Art Collector quotes by Frederick Lenz
The art school party in Liverpool, in a flat in the students' accomdation, was the first all night party I ever went to ... I puked up next morning. Cynthia was there, and I remember saying drunkenly to her 'I wish I had a nice girl like you' ~ George Harrison
Art Collector quotes by George Harrison
Interviewing is not a democratic art. ~ Andrew O'Hagan
Art Collector quotes by Andrew O'Hagan
Mindfulness is the art of breaking the chain - the chain of the negative thoughts, beliefs and the habit patterns. ~ Amit Ray
Art Collector quotes by Amit Ray
Craving is a good thing.In matters of culinary art, craving creates wonders. ~ Andy Paula
Art Collector quotes by Andy Paula
Anything to declare? the customs inspector said."Two pound of uncut heroin and a manual of pornographic art," Mark answered, looking about for Kity. All Americans are comedians, the inspector thought, as he passed Parker through. A government tourist hostess approached him."Are you Mr. Mark Parker?""Guilty. ~ Leon Uris
Art Collector quotes by Leon Uris
To use the enemy's weapon is to play the enemy's game ... speak the truth and hear the truth. ~ Ursula K. Le Guin
Art Collector quotes by Ursula K. Le Guin
At the root of every large struggle in life is the need to be honest about something that we do not feel we can be honest about. We lie to ourselves or other people because the truth might require action on our part, and action requires courage. We say we "don't know" what is wrong, when we do know what is wrong; we just wish we didn't.
Art lets us tell the truth, but even art can be something to hide behind. ~ Deb Caletti
Art Collector quotes by Deb Caletti
Everything an artist smells, hears, tastes, touches becomes part of his art. ~ Marty Rubin
Art Collector quotes by Marty Rubin
The War of Art: Break Through the Blocks and Win Your Inner Creative Battles BY STEVEN PRESSFIELD Pressfield's ~ Daniel H. Pink
Art Collector quotes by Daniel H. Pink
Caring for others tends to be the first cut when we review our personal time budget. It does not necessarily fulfill the goals of my ambition; it will not pave the way for my success; it takes away from my own depleted emotional resources. It is an imposition in every way. To some of us, it is an inconvenience from which we unashamedly run. We have become experts in maintaining a grand scope of friendships and amateurs in genuine intimacy and care. Unwittingly, we have sacrificed everything on the altar of self-sufficiency - only to discover that we have sold our souls to isolation. ~ Sandy Oshiro Rosen
Art Collector quotes by Sandy Oshiro Rosen
In other words, if your boy is a poet, horse manure can only mean flowers to him; which is, of course, what horse manure has always been about. ~ Ray Bradbury
Art Collector quotes by Ray Bradbury
There is an art, it says, or rather, a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. ... Clearly, it is this second part, the missing, which presents the difficulties. ~ Douglas Adams
Art Collector quotes by Douglas Adams
I feel like I have at least begun to make a contribution, but my most significant concern has to do with whether my actual art will be preserved for future generations or be erased. ~ Judy Chicago
Art Collector quotes by Judy Chicago
Some say, what is the Salvation of the Movies? I say, run 'em backwards. It can't hurt 'em and it's worth a trial. ~ Will Rogers
Art Collector quotes by Will Rogers
Orpheus with his lute made trees, And the mountain tops that freeze, Bow themselves, when he did sing; To his music, plants and flowers Ever sprung; as sun and showers There had made a lasting spring. Every thing that heard him play, Even the billows of the sea, Hung their heads, and then lay by. In sweet music is such art, Killing care and grief of heart Fall asleep, or hearing, die. ~ William Shakespeare
Art Collector quotes by William Shakespeare
Bryan gaped, as though that was more than he'd been expecting. "Oh. Okay. Well, um, there's a silent film festival downtown next week. Do you think you'd want to go?"
I shook my head. "No, I don't think so. I respect it as an art form but really don't get much out of watching them."
"Huh. Okay." He smoothed his hair back again, and I could almost see him groping for thoughts. Why on earth was he asking me about silent films? "What about Starships 30? It opens Friday. Do you want to see that?"
" I don't really like sci-fi either," I said. It was true, I found it completely implausible.
Bryan looked ready to rip that shaggy hair out. "Is there any movie out there you want to see?"
I ran through a mental list of current entertainment. "No. Not really." The bell rang, and with a shake of his head, Bryan slunk back to his desk. "That was weird," I muttered. "He has bad taste in movies." Glancing beside me, I was startled to see Julia with her head down on the desk while she shook with silent laughter. "What?"
"That," she gasped. "That was hilarious."
"What?" I said again. "Why?"
"Sydney, he was asking you out! ~ Richelle Mead
Art Collector quotes by Richelle Mead
I believe, that creating is a joyful activity as well as a meaningful suffer, and thus, it is an integral part of the human nature. ~ Gabor Gürtler
Art Collector quotes by Gabor Gürtler
I began doing writing projects and art and design projects to explore a new way of seeing Canada. Roots is one more way of continuing this exploration. I want to present a wide-open Canadian sense of color, adventure, communication and openness that defines our country. ~ Douglas Coupland
