• Cuanto más ajustado es un plazo, más me inclino a ser perverso y rebelde: empiezo a pensar en otro proyecto diferente, hasta que se convierte en la cosa más fantástica que debo empezar inmediatamente.

• And there is something great about knowing that my only job is to be as happy as I can be about my life, and feel as good as I can about myself, and to lead as full and eventful a life as I can, so that it doesn’t ever feel like I’m just waiting around for some guy to ask me out. And most importantly, it’s good for us all to remember that we don’t need to scheme and plot and beg to get someone to ask us out. We’re fantastic.

• La poesía, incluso cuando parece más fantástica, es siempre una revuelta contra el artificio, una revuelta, en cierto sentido, contra la actualidad. Habla de lo que parece fantástico e irreal a aquellos que han perdido las intuiciones simples que son la prueba de la realidad; y, como a menudo se encuentra en guerra con su época, no tiene en cuenta la historia, que es fabulada por las hijas de la memoria.

• I try to get a feeling of what's going on in the story before I put it down on paper, but actually most of this breaking-in period is one long, fantastic daydream, in which I think about anything but the work at hand. I can't turn out slews of stuff each day. I wish I could. I seem to have some neurotic need to perfect each paragraph—each sentence, even—as I go along.

• I should describe mine own nature as tripartite, my interests consisting of three parallel and dissociated groups - (a) Love of the strange and fantastic. (b) Love of the abstract truth and of scientific logick. (c) Love of the ancient and the permanent. Sundry combinations of these three strains will probably account for all my odd tastes and eccentricities.

• I define Inner Space as an imaginary realm in which on the one hand the outer world of reality, and on the other the inner world of the mind meet and merge. Now, in the landscapes of the surrealist painters, for example, one sees the regions of Inner Space; and increasingly I believe that we will encounter in film and literature scenes which are neither solely realistic nor fantastic. In a sense, it will be a movement in the interzone between both spheres.

• La principal diferencia del hombre con respecto a los brutos radica en el exuberante exceso de sus propensiones subjetivas, su preeminencia sobre ellos simple y únicamente en el número y en el carácter fantástico e innecesario de sus necesidades, físicas, morales, estéticas e intelectuales. Si toda su vida no hubiera sido una búsqueda de lo superfluo, nunca se habría establecido tan inexpugnablemente como lo ha hecho en lo necesario.

• The Hindu religion appears ... as a cathedral temple, half in ruins, noble in the mass, often fantastic in detail but always fantastic with a significance crumbling or badly outworn in places, but a cathedral temple in which service is still done to the Unseen and its real presence can be felt by those who enter with the right spirit.

• I hate symbolic art in which the presentation loses all spontaneous movement in order to become a machine, an allegory -- a vain and misconceived effort because the very fact of giving an allegorical sense to a presentation clearly shows that we have to do with a fable which by itself has no truth either fantastic or direct; it was made for the demonstration of some moral truth.

• An original mind is rarely understood, until it has been reflected from some half-dozen congenial with it, so averse are men to admitting the true in an unusual form; whilst any novelty, however fantastic, however false, is greedily swallowed.

• Harvey sought for truth in Truth's own book- Creation - which by God himself was writ;And wisely thought 'twas fitNot to read comments only upon it,But on th' original itself to look.Methinks in Art's great circle others standLock'd up together hand in hand:Every one leads as he is led,The same bare path they tread,A dance like that of Fairies, a fantastic round,With neither change of motion nor of ground.Had Harvey to this road confined his wit,His noble circle of the blood had been untrodden yet.

• Nowadays children look at everyone in the magazines and they want to be a basketball star or on a television show, but there is only so many people who can do those things and not that you shouldn't aim or dream for these things, but there are so many other fantastic jobs. So it's good to talk about how to get there and how difficult it is to get there.

• First of all I have to ask myself what am I trying to say and who am I trying to tell the story to. So if it's just 300 words going in the Independent it's very much where, what, who and when - fantastic. If there's a little bit more scope, if I've been given 1500 words by the sports editor, and I can have a little bit of fun, then I need to maybe entertain, include some different stuff.

• En todas las comunidades hay pequeños grupos de extremistas fantásticos que proclaman a bombo y platillo que luchan por la justicia y que, en realidad, hacen todo lo que pueden por la injusticia. Así como el político recto debe despreciar especialmente al hombre que hace del nombre de político un reproche y una vergüenza, así el reformador genuino debe darse cuenta de que la causa que defiende está especialmente en peligro por el reformador falso que hace lo que puede para que la reforma sea el hazmerreír de los hombres decentes.

• Is it not a rather fantastic historical irony that the torture techniques that the North Vietnamese used against McCain that forced him to offer a videotaped false confession are now the techniques the Bush administration is using to gain "intelligence" about terror networks. How is it possible to know that everything John McCain once said on videotape for the enemy was false, because it was coerced, and yet assert that everything we torture out of terror suspects using exactly the same techniques is true?
