Paul Gauguin Quotes https://www.brainyquote.com/authors/paul_gauguin
French - Artist June 7, 1848 - May 9, 1903

Life has no meaning unless one lives it with a will, at least to the limit of one's will. Virtue, good, evil are nothing but words, unless one takes them apart in order to build something with them; they do not win their true meaning until one knows how to apply them.
Paul Gauguin

Deborah Tannen Quotes https://www.brainyquote.com/authors/deborah_tannen
American - Sociologist Born: June 7, 1945

Everything we say has metamessages indicating how our words are to be interpreted: Is this a serious statement or a joke? Does it show annoyance or goodwill? Most of the time, metamessages are communicated and interpreted without notice because, as far as anyone can tell, the speaker and the hearer agree on their meaning.
Deborah Tannen


Orhan Pamuk Quotes https://www.brainyquote.com/authors/orhan_pamuk
Novelist Born: June 7, 1952
When I write, I feel that I'm writing with my intellect. When I paint, I think it's some other force making me paint. I - as I wrote in my novel 'My Name is Red' - watch with amazement what my hand is doing on the paper, what kind of line, what kind of strange, beautiful thing it's doing in spite of my will, so to speak.
Orhan Pamuk

Sometimes ideas are coming so fast that I have to stop doing one song to get another. But I don't forget the first one. If it works, it will always be there. It's like the truth: it will find you and lift you up. And if it ain't right, it will dissolve like sand on the beach.
Prince
