Brigades Bristol Quotes & Sayings

I think the bottom line is that if you get through a childhood like mine, it's not at all bad.

The more you experience love, the more full of it you should be. But the opposite sometimes happens, because you fear the loss of life. You fear the vulnerability that can take the goodness of it away. This might have happened because when i was just a kid, i had the sense that your whole life can change with a death in the family. It's like they say - at least i say - It's the loss of money that leads to the love of it. You know, the people who care about money are never the people who made a lot. They're the people who have lost a lot. And I think that might be true in relationships, when if you've lost somebody important to you early on, you live in fear of that the rest of your life. I suppose that's one of the things that I would fear, and that might explain the rage you referred to earlier, which is real in me, at some point, it really is. An odd thing to own up to, but I do know it's true. — Michka Assayas

Myths continue to dominate humankind, and science only makes these myths stronger. Instead of destroying the intersubjective reality, science will enable it to control the objective and subjective realities more completely than ever before. Thanks to computers and bioengineering, the difference between fiction and reality will blur, as people reshape reality to match their pet fictions. — Yuval Noah Harari

So I did another look and they laughed again and then I remember thinking, hold on, this isn't right for this piece, you've got to stop it. — Tamsin Greig

Evidently habit does wonders! God knows what habit can do with anyone. — Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Execution is the ability to mesh strategy with reality, align people with goals, and achieve the promised results. — Lawrence Bossidy

I preferred an artist who transformed his time, not mirrored it. - reference to Andy Warhol — Patti Smith
