You can never predict what little things in the way somebody looks or talks or acts will set off peculiar emotional reactions in other people. - Andy Warhol

In some circles where very heavy people think they have very heavy brains, words like "charming" and "clever" and "pretty" are all put-downs; all the lighter things in life, which are the most important things, are put down.

People's fantasies are what give them problems. If you didn't have fantasies you wouldn't have problems because you'd just take whatever was there.

And your own life while it's happening to you never has any atmosphere until it's a memory.
