All in all, I don't think robots and greater automation can bring about a utopian world as I imagined it would as a kid 50 years ago.

Stanley Druckenmiller

I'd rather call it "instrumental creative music," especially the music that I've been doing. If a person would hear that music, they would undoubtedly call it "jazz." There is this whole generation of musicians that are playing and thinking critically for themselves and making music that's relevant to today. I hope that's the objective of a lot of musicians.

Ambrose Bierce

You know, they ask me if I were on a desert island and I knew nobody would ever see what I wrote, would I go on writing. My answer is most emphatically yes. I would go on writing for company. Because I'm creating an imaginary - it's always imaginary - world in which I would like to live.

William S. Burroughs

I'm not an activist by nature. I am suspicious of Utopian thinking and equally suspicious of its alternate. I would prefer to stay in the Writing Burrow and play with my imaginary friends and enemies. I get sucked into these things.

Margaret Atwood

The world consists of imaginary people, claiming imaginary virtues and suffering from imaginary happiness.

Vernon Howard

I'm inspired by artists and musicians. There are so many wonderful and talented people in the world. I love discovering new music, new writers, or new art.

Alicia Keys

I can't fathom writers married to writers and musicians married to musicians. There's your enemy in bed beside you.

T. C. Boyle

Time is the main subject for any musicians, music writers, composers.

Ryuichi Sakamoto

You have just taken an oath of allegiance to the United States. Of allegiance to whom? Of allegiance to no one, unless it be God. Certainly not of allegiance to those who temporarily represent this great government. You have taken an oath of allegiance to a great ideal, to a great body of principles, to a great hope of the human race.
