• It might be a kind of relief to be finished. You have to start all over again. But I believe you’re always as good as your potential. I now live in my work and in a few relationships with the few people I can really count on. Fame will go by, and, so long, I’ve had you fame. If it goes by, I’ve always known it was fickle. So at least it’s something I experienced, but that’s not where I live.

• ...el Lago de las Aguas Brillantes era azul - azul - azul; no el azul cambiante de la primavera, ni el azul pálido del verano, sino un azul claro, firme, sereno, como si el agua hubiera superado todos los modos y tiempos de la emoción y se hubiera asentado en una tranquilidad no interrumpida por sueños volubles.

• I learned in the last few years that it's really unhappy and really unsustainable to try and base your well being on something as arbitrary as record sale and critical acclaim and the interests of the public. All of those things are so fickle. So my approach now to music is I want to make records that I love, and I hope that other people love them, then that's OK.

• But above everything, drink wines with love. They are like women - different, mysterious, fickle. And each wine has to be taken like a woman. This always begins with a rejection, done gracefully or rudely according to the woman's disposition, and in the end she will grant herself only to someone, who aspires her soul as well as her body. She will belong to the one, who knows how to uncover her with the utmost delicacy.

  Luigi Veronelli

• Africa is never the same to anyone who leaves it and returns again. It is not a land of change, but it is a land of moods and its moods are numberless. It is not fickle, but because it has mothered not only men, but races, and cradles not only cities, but civilizations - and seen them die, and seen new ones born again - Africa can be dispassionate, indifferent, warm, or cynical, replete with the weariness of too much wisdom.

• The trap is when you start to pay attention to that stuff and care, because in six months, they're going to be looking at someone else. You know how fickle everyone is. They love it, then they hate it, then they love it. So I'm going to enjoy it because it could be over at any minute.

• En estos tiempos rápidos y volubles, es bueno saber que hay algunas cosas con las que siempre se puede contar: la perdurable brillantez de la última página de El Gran Gatsby; las armonías casi religiosas de "California Girls" de los Beach Boys; y la amistad de por vida de Matt Damon y Ben Affleck.

• Las musas son volubles, y muchos escritores, escudriñando la voz, han escapado a la parálisis atribuyendo la responsabilidad creativa a un talismán: un amuleto de la suerte, una marca de papel, pero más a menudo un instrumento de escritura. ¿Escribo bien? Gracias a mi pluma. ¿Escribo mal? No me culpes a mí, culpa a mi pluma. Con tales desplazamientos se defiende la temerosa imaginación.

• La fama es algo ilusorio: hoy está, mañana se ha ido. La masa voluble y superficial eleva a sus héroes a la cima de la aprobación hoy y los arroja al olvido mañana al menor capricho; vítores hoy, silbidos mañana; olvido absoluto en unos meses.

• Todas las formas bellas de este mundo están en proceso de transformación. Nada es estable. A cada momento, nuestra realidad cambia. La Madre Ganges, como la naturaleza, es constante, pero ninguna manifestación suya permanece. Del mismo modo, todo lo que apreciamos en este mundo se desvanece imperceptiblemente. No podemos aferrarnos a nada. Pero si podemos apreciar la belleza de la corriente subyacente de la verdad, podremos disfrutar de una realidad más profunda que las volubles olas de la alegría y la tristeza.

• Wanderlust is not a passion for travel exactly, it’s something more animal and more fickle- more like lust.  We don’t lust after very many things in life.  We don’t need words like ‘worklust’ or ‘homemakinglust.’ But travel?  The essayist Anatole Broyard put it perfectly: ‘Travel is like adultery: one is always tempted to be unfaithful to one’s own country.  To have imagination is inevitably to be dissatisfied with where you live… in our wanderlust, we are lovers looking for consummation.’
