“Too many Broadway actors in motion pictures lost their grip on success—had a feeling that none of it had ever happened on that sun-drenched coast, that the coast itself did not exist, there was no California.

—Mae West (1892–1980)

You even affirm that spirits are a sort of beings altogether different from ideas. Consequently that no idea can be like a spirit. We have therefore no idea of any spirit.”
—George Berkeley (1685–1753)

“The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”

Of finances we will not even speak; it is too sad a tale.”
—Ilka Chase (1905–1978)

A motion and a spirit, that impels
All thinking things, all objects of all thought,
And rolls through all things.”
