“No man can have a 'yellow streak' and last. He must pay much attention to his nerves or temperament. He must hide every flaw.”
Christy Mathewson
“A work of art is the unique result of a unique temperament.”
Oscar Wilde
“He had that curious love of green, which in individuals is always the sign of a subtle artistic temperament, and in nations is said to denote a laxity, if not a decadence of morals.”
“Age does not depend upon years, but upon temperament and health. Some men are born old, and some never grow so.”
Tryon Edwards
“Music inflames temperament.”
Jim Morrison
“Each victim of suicide gives his act a personal stamp which expresses his temperament, the special conditions in which he is involved, and which, consequently, cannot be explained by the social and general causes of the phenomenon.”
Emile Durkheim
“If I wasn't an actor, I think I'd have gone mad. You have to have extra voltage, some extra temperament to reach certain heights. Art is a little bit larger than life- it's an exhalation of life and I think I you probably need a little touch of madness.”
Laurence Olivier Sir
