You're only given a proverb

 You're only given a little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it.
  Robin Williams

 The only kinds of fights worth fighting are those you are going to lose, because somebody has to fight them and lose and lose and lose until someday, somebody who believes as you do wins. In order for somebody to win an important, major fight 100 years hence, a lot of other people have got to be willing - for the sheer fun and joy of it - to go right ahead and fight, knowing you're going to lose. You mustn't feel like a martyr. You've got to enjoy it.

 What he said was 'You must read the book and if you find a way of doing the book, then you must tell us what that is. You mustn't come because it's a franchise. You mustn't come because it's the most famous children's film that's ever been. You mustn't come for this that and the other reason. You've got to be able to see how to make a 750-page book into a single movie,'

 He doesn't like being told what to do. He's reacting against the neo-Puritanism that you mustn't smoke, you mustn't drink, guns are bad.

 What we mustn't do is lose track of academic qualifications.

 When I say madness I mean what I see in a nut house: beat, resigned, dim, diffuse, nowhere people. No fire no intensity no life. There is madness & madness if you want to stretch the word.
  William S. Burroughs

 It's like we told each other, it's March now, let the madness begin. We can't lose any more. That's just the way it is. We just can't lose.

 You have to do everything possible for the safety of the competitors, spectators and the people who work in F1. But we mustn't emasculate it. We mustn't take away the spectacle. At the moment, we have a good balance, but I will never give up working and pushing the FIA to make changes in the interests of safety. Everywhere you look, there is an opportunity to hurt yourself and we don't want F1 to be marred.

 There have been a lot of upsets, that's been the talk of this year. It's not called March Madness for nothing. Every game is a threat no matter what team it is or what conference you come from. Our concerns are ourselves. We're pretty much the only team that can beat ourselves. When we don't do things correctly, when we lose focus, that's when we lose games.

 A spark, ... It's just that simple. He was a spark. A spark has a tendency to make everyone else do their jobs a little bit better.

 One of life's primal situations; the game of hide and seek. Oh, the delicious thrill of hiding while the others come looking for you, the delicious terror of being discovered, but what panic when, after a long search, the others abandon you! You mustn't hide too well. You mustn't be too good at the game. The player must never be bigger than the game itself.
  Jean Baudrillard

 EVEN THOUGH I'M MARKED FOR DEATH, I'M A SPARK TILL I LOSE MY BREATH."

 Armando has been a constant spark for our team. Whenever we need a big hit, he seems to through. He is just one of those guys that refuses to lose.

 They think me mad--Starbuck does; but I'm demoniac, I am madness maddened! That wild madness that's only calm to comprehend itself!

 Television is actually closer to reality than anything in books. The madness of TV is the madness of human life.
  Camille Paglia
