Wall Quotes

Life sometimes gets so bogged down in the details, you forget you are living it. There is always another appointment to be met, another bill to pay, another symptom presenting, another uneventful day to be notched onto the wooden wall. We have synchronized our watches, studied our calendars, existed in minutes, and completely forgotten to step back and see what we’ve accomplished Picture Quote #1

My definition of art has always been the same. It is about freedom of expression, a new way of communication. It is never about exhibiting in museums or about hanging it on the wall. Art should live in the heart of the people. Ordinary people should have the same ability to understand art as anybody else. I don’t think art is elite or mysterious. I don’t think anybody can separate art from politics. The intention to separate art from politics is itself a very political intention Picture Quote #1

He had thrown himself away, he had lost interest in everything, and life, falling in with his feelings, had demanded nothing of him. He had lived as an outsider, an idler and onlooker, well liked in his young manhood, alone in his illness and advancing years. Seized with weariness, he sat down on the wall, and the river murmured darkly in his thoughts Picture Quote #1

I always play every game like my back is against the wall, that this could be it Picture Quote #1

Man is a strange animal. He generally cannot read the handwriting on the wall until his back is up against it Picture Quote #1

The thickness of the wall should, in my opinion, be such that armed men meeting on top of it may pass one another without interference Picture Quote #1

Headmaster: Mark my words, when a society has to resort to the lavatory for its humour, the writing is on the wall Picture Quote #1

Most of us can read the writing on the wall; we just assume it’s addressed to someone else Picture Quote #1

It all began with a shoe on the wall. A shoe on the wall shouldn’t be there at all Picture Quote #1

Be prepared to do whatever you have to do. If you get put in a situation where your back is up against the wall let your gun go off Picture Quote #1

You were a stone wall, a fort in high, unreachable trees, an island, my own island, that no boat could reach Picture Quote #1

A man’s character is not judged after he celebrates a victory, but by what he does when his back is against the wall Picture Quote #1

But sometimes, in tight corners, when your back is against the wall and the world is against you, you have to fight back in unexpected ways Picture Quote #1

Beauty of your love-filled smile created a mark on the stone wall of my heart, I can erase it never Picture Quote #1

If the world could remain within a frame like a painting on the wall, I think we’d see the beauty then and stand staring in awe Picture Quote #1

Wall Street is littered with clever plans to use financial instruments to change behavior - carbon trading, for example. Some have changed the world, and others failed miserably Picture Quote #1

I work in a small study on the top floor of a brownstone in Brooklyn - it’s about 75 square feet, 11 taken up by book shelves along one wall Picture Quote #1

The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater Picture Quote #1

Politics is not a picture on a wall or a television sitcom that you can decide you don’t much care for Picture Quote #1

My music is very personal. I’ve created it in solitude. I face a white wall and beller. I like that sound - the expression of loneliness. That’s what it’s all about Picture Quote #1

Do one of three things. One, go and find a wailing wall and feel sorry for yourselves. Two, go psycho and start bombing -- but this will only swing people to the right. Three, learn a lesson. Go home, organize, build power and at the next convention, you be the delegates Picture Quote #1

I believe the only limitations are the ones that we accept. I know that there is, in theory, a glass ceiling. But I don’t believe that it’s a solid wall. I’m going through it. Nothing’s stopping me. Yes, there are these preconceived notions; yes, we have challenges. Let’s accept them, let’s not be afraid of them, let’s break through them Picture Quote #1

If there is a reason for keeping the wall very quiet, choose a pattern that works all over without pronounced lines...Put very succinctly, architectural effect depends upon a nice balance of horizontal, vertical and oblique. No rules can say how much of each; so nothing can really take the place of feeling and good judgement Picture Quote #1

It’s like banging my head against the wall, except if I were actually banging my head on a wall, I’d be able to make myself stop Picture Quote #1
