Steve Largent A democratic government is the only one in which those who vote for a tax can escape the obligation to pay it. Alexis de Tocqueville A horse is the projection of peoples' dreams about themselves - strong, powerful, beautiful - and it has the capability of giving us escape from our mundane existence. Pam Brown A leaf fluttered in through the window this morning, as if supported by the rays of the sun, a bird settled on the fire escape, joy in the task of coffee, joy accompanied me as I walked. Anais Nin A man has only one escape from his old self: to see a different self in the mirror of some woman's eyes. Clare Boothe Luce A man whose life has been dishonourable is not entitled to escape disgrace in death. Lucius Accius All persons harboring or secreting the conspirators or aiding their concealment or escape, will be treated as accomplices in the murder of the President and shall be subject to trial before a military commission, and the punishment of death. Edwin M. Stanton All the best stories are but one story in reality - the story of escape. It is the only thing which interests us all and at all times, how to escape. A. C. Benson All the best stories in the world are but one story in reality - the story of escape. It is the only thing which interests us all and at all times, how to escape. Walter Bagehot An Atheist believes that a hospital should be built instead of a church. An atheist believes that deed must be done instead of prayer said. An atheist strives for involvement in life and not escape into death. He wants disease conquered, poverty vanished, war eliminated. Madalyn Murray O'Hair And I think it is the genius of actors to be able to escape whatever people are expecting of them. Otherwise you become like a factory worker. Olivier Martinez Anyone can escape into sleep, we are all geniuses when we dream, the butcher's the poet's equal there. Emile M. Cioran Anyone who has passed though the regular gradations of a classical education, and is not made a fool by it, may consider himself as having had a very narrow escape. William Hazlitt Art and Religion are, then, two roads by which men escape from circumstance to ecstasy. Between aesthetic and religious rapture there is a family alliance. Art and Religion are means to similar states of mind. Clive Bell Art is a way to express yourself and through that you can escape a bad situation. Russell Simmons As a kid I quite fancied the romantic, Bohemian idea of being an artist. I expect I thought I could escape from the difficulties of maths and spelling. Maybe I thought I would avoid the judgement of the establishment. Peter Wright As Jews, their families left Russia to escape the poverty and the antisemitism. Martin Lewis Perl As Mark Weiner puts it, whether you gain 50 pounds or lose 50 pounds, whether you have a sex change operation for that matter, that it doesn't matter, that there is some part of ourselves that we cannot escape. Todd Solondz As memory may be a paradise from which we cannot be driven, it may also be a hell from which we cannot escape. John Lancaster Spalding At 20, 25, 30, we begin to realise that the possibilities of escape are getting fewer. We have jobs, children, partners, debts. This is the part of us to which literary fiction speaks. Mark Haddon |
