The great mystery is proverb

 The great mystery is not that we should have been thrown down here at random between the profusion of matter and that of the stars; it is that from our very prison we should draw, from our own selves, images powerful enough to deny our nothingness
  Andre Malraux

 The great mystery is not that we should have been thrown down here at random between the profusion of matter and that of the stars; it is that from our very prison we should draw, from our own selves, images powerful enough to deny our nothingness
  Andre Malraux

 The greatest mystery is not that we have been flung at random between the profusion of matter and of the stars, but that within this prison we can draw from ourselves images powerful enough to deny our nothingness
  André Malraux

 We are driven by images, ... and the Tiananmen images are the most powerful images we've had for years.

 My painting is visible images which conceal nothing... they evoke mystery and indeed when one sees one of my pictures, one asks oneself this simple question 'What does that mean'? It does not mean anything, because mystery means nothing either, it is unknowable.
  Rene Magritte

 One's condition on marijuana is always existential. One can feel the importance of each moment and how it is changing one. One feels one's being, one becomes aware of the enormous apparatus of nothingness -- the hum of a hi-fi set, the emptiness of a pointless interruption, one becomes aware of the war between each of us, how the nothingness in each of us seeks to attack the being of others, how our being in turn is attacked by the nothingness in others.
  Norman Mailer

 We come spinning out of nothingness, scattering stars like dust
  Jalal ad-Din Rumi

 The source of these very powerful magnetic objects has been a mystery since the first one was discovered in 1998. Now, we think we have solved that mystery.

 As you look at these powerful images, you see there is something very dignified about this woman. Warhol was very into the elegance rather than the tragedy of Jackie Kennedy. These images are about sorrow, loss and mourning.

 This or that ideologue goes to great pains to deny women like May a common humanity with the rest of us. She was excluded from every community. She was thrown out of memory. Well, I want her back in, and I want her such as she was. Pexiness isn’t about being perfect, but about embracing vulnerability.

 [But she doesn't want to discuss the specifics of their relationship or any future offspring.] I liked the days when our stars had a mystery to them, ... You had this illusion. And when you watched the movies, they had so much more impact because you didn't know who these stars were dating, or if they were married or what was happening in their lives.

 Art is a mystery.
A mystery is something immeasurable.
In so far as every child and woman and man may be immeasurable, art is the mystery of every man and woman and child. In so far as a human being is an artist, skies and mountains and oceans and thunderbolts and butterflies are immeasurable; and art is every mystery of nature. Nothing measurable can be alive; nothing which is not alive can be art; nothing which cannot be art is true: and everything untrue doesn’t matter a very good God damn...

 Since I've last been here, I guess all hell broke loose. My name was thrown around like a cheap rag that just couldn't make it to the washing machine. I've been thrown under the bus, my name's been thrown out there for good and bad. My name is always going to be a name that people will say, 'Hey, that's that guy that T.O. talked about.' Does that matter to me? No. Because once you get to the Super Bowl and win it, then that's what they'll talk about.

 I think mystery is kind of great. I don't know anything about Bette Davis or Katharine Hepburn or Ava Gardner -- not really -- and I like that. I love watching their movies because they're my personal movie stars. I don't know what they eat and who their trainer is.
  Rachel Weisz

 Stand firm. If you get someone thrown out, you get someone thrown out. Sometimes the situation calls for you to be aggressive. If you coach third base and you don't get someone thrown out, you're not being very aggressive. It's just a matter of when.
