Det fordras begåvning för att inte tjäna pengar. Nu för tiden kan vilken åsna som helst tjäna pengar och de flesta av dem gör det. Men hur förhåller det sig med talangfulla och begåvade människor? Nämn till exempel en enda poet som tjänar pengar.

Money

I går kväll höll jag den hand
så ljuv och så öm.
Jag trodde mitt hjärta skulle spricka;
så häftigt började det slå.
Ingen annan hand jag hållt,
som givit mig sådan lycka,
än den jag höll i går kväll;
Fyra ess och en kung.

Gambling

Om jag finge välja en av alla de böcker som publiceras hundra år efter min död skulle jag välja ett modemagasin för att se hur kvinnorna går klädda. Deras bjäfs kommer att berätta mer för mig om detta framtida samhälle än alla filosofer och predikanter.

Anatole France (1844-1924)

Klær

Något om hjältar. 1. Livet är en morgongåva, själen är en pilgrimskör. Det står krokus i min trädgård, det står öl på mitt bord. Under himlen hänger lärken som ett avlägset bevingat frö. För en lärk tänker varken på att leva eller dö.

Noget om helte
1. Livet er en morgengave
sjælen er et pilgrimskor
der står krokus i min have
der står øller på mit bord
under himlen hænger lærken
som et fjernt bevinget frø
for en lærke tænker hverken
på at leve eller dø.

Halfdan Rasmussen

Leve

Oh I have been to Ludlow fair, and left my necktie God knows where. And carried half way home, or near, pints and quarts of Ludlow beer. Then the world seemed none so bad, and I myself a sterling lad. And down in lovely muck I've lain, happy -- till I woke up again.

Alfred Edward Housman (1859-1936)

Through the years, a man peoples a space with images of provinces, kingdoms, mountains, bays, ships, islands, fishes, rooms, tools, stars, horses and people. Shortly before his death, he discovers that the patient labyrinth of lines traces the image of his own face.

Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986)

Patience permits us to cling to our faith in the Lord when we are tossed about by suffering as if by surf. When the undertow grasps us we will realize that we are somehow being carried forward even as we tumble. We are actually being -helped even as we cry for help.

Neal A. Maxwell

I don't want to be called 'the greatest' or 'one of the greatest'; let other guys claim to be the best. I just want to be known as a clown because to me that's the height of my profession. It means you can do everything-sing, dance, and above all, make people laugh.

Red Skelton (1913-1997)

Once over there [Balkans], I felt extremely patriotic. Here are these people, from 18-year-olds to military veterans, enduring real duress for the cause of peace. I don't ever want to play for a regular audience again, only military folks who are starving for music.

Sheryl Crow (1962-)

But I do mean to say, I have heard her declare,
When at the same moment she had on a dress
Which cost five hundred dollars, and not a cent less,
And jewelry worth ten times more, I should guess,
That she had not a thing in the wide world to wear!

William Allen Butler

The fundamental fact about the Greek was that he had to use his mind. The ancient priests had said, "Thus far and no farther. We set the limits of thought." The Greek said, "All things are to be examined and called into question. There are no limits set on thought."

Edith Hamilton (1867-1963)

Though God hath raised me high, yet this I count the glory of my crown: that I have reigned with your loves. And though you have had, and may have, many mightier and wiser princes sitting in this seat; yet you never had, nor shall have any that will love you better.

Queen Elizabeth I (1533-1603)

In marriage there are no manners to keep up, and beneath the wildest accusations no real criticism. Each is familiar with that ancient child in the other who may erupt again. We are not ridiculous to ourselves. We are ageless. That is the luxury of the wedding ring.

Enid Bagnold (1889-1981)

Manners are of such great consequence to the novelist that any kind will do. Bad manners are better than no manners at all, and because we are losing our customary manners, we are probably overly conscious of them; this seems to be a condition that produces writers.

Flannery O'Connor

Anger, even when it punishes the faults of delinquents, ought not to precede reason as its mistress, but attend as a handmaid at the back of reason, to come to the front when bidden. For once it begins to take control of the mind, it calls just what it does cruelly.

George William Curtis (1824-1892)
