“My general theory since 1971 has been that the word is literally a virus, and that it has not been recognized as such because it has achieved a state of relatively stable symbiosis with its human host; that is to say, the word virus (the Other Half) has established itself so firmly as an accepted part of the human organism that it can now sneer at gangster viruses like smallpox and turn them in to the Pasteur Institute.”
William S. Burroughs
“I come from a generation of sceptics, who do not believe what politicians say. The Labour Party wants to convince people through actions, not words. The Nationalist party have given the country 25 years of lies, the Labour Party will build the country anew.”
Joseph Muscat
“The human being is in the most literal sense a political animal, not merely a gregarious animal, but an animal which can individuate itself only in the midst of society.”
Karl Marx
“I'm not very good at relaxing. Reading's the main thing. On the bus, on the tube, on the loo. Literally all the time. I mean, I don't think there's a moment of the day when I wouldn't be if I was left alone.”
Samuel West
“There is literally nothing Mr. Carmines will not use - gallops, waltzes, polkas, circus blares and musical bumps and grinds - to get his work done.”
Walter Kerr
“Photographs that transcend but do not deny their literal situation appeal to me.”

“This is not like digging up Aztec remains in Mexico. The tribe is literally 2 miles away, so it's very sensitive.”
