I meant what I said and I said what I meant.
Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the thinks you can think up if only you try!
Adults are obsolete children.
Why fit in when you were born to stand out?
Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not.
You're in pretty good shape for the shape you are in.
You can get help from teachers, but you are going to have to learn a lot by yourself, sitting alone in a room.
Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.
The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.
Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!
I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.

Great Quotes from Pablo Picasso
The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.
Action is the foundational key to all success.
Our goals can only be reached through a vehicle of a plan, in which we must fervently believe, and upon which we must vigorously act. There is no other route to success.
Love is the greatest refreshment in life.
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
To draw you must close your eyes and sing.
I don't believe in accidents. There are only encounters in history. There are no accidents.
To make oneself hated is more difficult than to make oneself loved.
Everything is a miracle. It is a miracle that one does not dissolve in one's bath like a lump of sugar.
If there were only one truth, you couldn't paint a hundred canvases on the same theme.
The older you get the stronger the wind gets - and it's always in your face.
Never permit a dichotomy to rule your life, a dichotomy in which you hate what you do so you can have pleasure in your spare time. Look for a situation in which your work will give you as much happiness as your spare time.
An idea is a point of departure and no more. As soon as you elaborate it, it becomes transformed by thought.
My mother said to me, 'If you are a soldier, you will become a general. If you are a monk, you will become the Pope.' Instead, I was a painter, and became Picasso.

Benjamin Franklin Quotes
The U. S. Constitution doesn't guarantee happiness, only the pursuit of it. You have to catch up with it yourself.
We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.
Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain - and most fools do.
Honesty is the best policy.
Well done is better than well said.
Lost time is never found again.
It is the working man who is the happy man. It is the idle man who is the miserable man.
Whatever is begun in anger ends in shame.
It takes many good deeds to build a good reputation, and only one bad one to lose it.
A place for everything, everything in its place.
Energy and persistence conquer all things.
Half a truth is often a great lie.
Content makes poor men rich; discontent makes rich men poor.
Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today.
