Charlie Kaufman
"You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation."
Plato

Plato

Jenkin Lloyd Jones

"Occasionally words must serve to veil the facts. But this must happen in such a way that no one becomes aware of it; or, if it should be noticed, excuses must be at hand, to be produced immediately."
Nicolo Machiavelli
"If A is a success in life, than A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is play; and z is keeping your mouth shut."
Albert Einstein
"None are so fond of secrets as those who do not mean to keep them."
Charles Caleb Colton
"It is perfectly monstrous the way people go about, nowadays, saying things against one behind one's back that are absolutely and entirely true."
Oscar Wilde
"If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bull."
W.C. Fields
"When ideas fail, words come in very handy."
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"I've been accused of vulgarity. I say that's bullshit."
Mel Brooks
