Power's footstool is opinion and his throne the human heart.

Sir Aubrey De Vere, 2nd Baronet

Art thou a type of beauty, or of power, Of sweet enjoyment, or disastrous sin?

Sir Aubrey De Vere, 2nd Baronet

There is no remedy for time misspent; No healing for the waste of idleness, Whose very languor is a punishment Heavier than active souls can feel or guess.

Sir Aubrey De Vere, 2nd Baronet

Mud, rubbish and dirt are man's companions all his life; shouldn't they be precious to him, and isn't one doing man's service to remind him of their beauty?

Jean Dubuffet Painter

Revenge... is like a rolling stone, which, when a man hath forced up a hill, will return upon him with a greater violence, and break those bones whose sinews gave it motion.

Jeremy Taylor Author

There is no reason why the same man should like the same books at eighteen and at forty-eight

Ezra Pound Poet

For a man to achieve all that is demanded of him he must regard himself as greater than he is.

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Writer

Don't shave, don't shower, don't care. Be really stinky and wear the same clothes every day. I think what makes a man sexy is not being self-aware. That’s what's really cute to me.

Gwen Stefani Singer-Songwriter

On the brilliance of James Brown's dancing − and the frustrations of bad camera-work on dancers:cers: I think James Brown is a genius you know when he's with the Famous Flames, unbelievable. I used to watch him on television and I used to get angry at the camera-man because whenever he would really start to dance they would be on a close-up so I couldn't see his feet. I'd shout "Show him! Show him!", so I could watch and learn.

Michael Jackson Singer-Songwriter

Everyone has seen people dancing all night. But take a man and make him dance for a quarter of an hour without music and see if he can bear it.

Maurice De Saxe Comte De Saxe
