• The mind always functions in an eccentric way, the mind is always an idiot. The really intelligent person has no mind. Intelligence arises out of no-mind, idiocy out of the mind. Mind is idiotic, no-mind is wise. No-mind is wisdom, intelligence. Mind depends on knowledge, on methods, on money, on experience, on this and that. Mind always needs props, it needs supports, it cannot exist on its own. On its own, it flops.

  Rajneesh

• I remember getting in the elevator for my audition and there was a guy next to me who had a backpack full of props and wigs and things, and I went, 'Oh, my God, that guy is so prepared, I have nothing, I have no props.' And that was Andy Samberg. And Andy Samberg said he was looking at me going, 'Oh, that guy has no props. He doesn't need props.' And that was the first time we met, was in that elevator.

• An actor has to be very, very careful, as one of the most wonderful props - and actors love props - is a cigarette. There's so much to do with it: you can bring it up to your face, play with the smoke. It's just the greatest - ever since I was 16 and in acting school in England, I've been playing around with cigarettes.

• When a young artist asked me for advice on drawing the human foot, I told him, ‘The first thing you must learn is how to take your shoe off, and then how to take your sock off, then prop your leg up carefully on your other knee, take a piece of paper, and draw your foot.’

• Se había perdido en algún lugar de la frontera entre sus invenciones, sus historias, sus fantasías y su verdadero yo. Los límites se habían borrado, las huellas se habían perdido, se había adentrado en el puro caos, y no en un caos que la llevara como el galope de los jinetes románticos de las óperas y las leyendas, sino que revelara de repente el atrezo del escenario: un caballo de cartón piedra.

• Los enanos no eran una especie religiosa por naturaleza, pero en un mundo en el que los puntales de foso podían resquebrajarse sin previo aviso y los focos de humedad de fuego podían explotar de repente, habían visto la necesidad de dioses como una especie de equivalente sobrenatural de un casco. Además, cuando te golpeas el pulgar con un martillo de dos kilos es bueno poder blasfemar. Se necesita un tipo de ateo muy especial y de mente fuerte para saltar con la mano agarrada bajo la otra axila y gritar: "¡Oh, fluctuaciones aleatorias en el continuo espacio-tiempo!" o "¡Aaargh, concepto primitivo y anticuado en una muleta!

  Terry Pratchett

• I looked at her. Sheila was my girl--the girl I wanted--and wanted for keeps. But it wasn't any use having illusions about her. Sheila was a liar and probably always would be a liar. It was her way of fighting for survival--the quick easy glib denial. It was a child's weapon--and she'd probably never got out of using it. If I wanted Sheila, I must accept her as she was--be at hand to prop up the weak places. We've all got our weak places. Mine were different from Sheila's, but they were there.

• La praxis política de Stirner es quijotesca. Sie akzeptiert die stablierten Hierarchien der Verpflichtung als gegeben. ... No susceptibles de ningún cambio radical, forman parte del teatro que alberga la acción del individuo. ... El egoísta utiliza los elementos de la estructura social como atrezzo en su acto autoexpresivo.

• I’m a Clash of the Titans/Star Wars baby. I’m not a new Star Wars baby. I’m not an Avatar baby. That full CG doesn’t work for me. I need interactivity. I need to feel the goo. I need to feel people coming out of animatronics and just interacting with props.

• The median family of four ... paid $4,722 in federal taxes last year. That's enough to pay for a new curtain for the secretary of commerce's office, to bribe a farmer not to plant 38 acres with corn ... seven weeks of salary for a Customs man assigned to save us from the terror of high-quality, low priced foreign TV sets, or the subsidy on 6,000 bushels of wheat to prop up the Soviet regime. Surely civilization would collapse without such essential services.

• As those that pull down private houses adjoining to the temples of the gods, prop up such parts as are contiguous to them; so, in undermining bashfulness, due regard is to be had to adjacent modesty, good-nature and humanity.

• There is a grand fearlessness in faith. He who in his heart of hearts reverences the good, the true, the holy--that is, reverences God--does not tremble at the apparent success of attacks upon the outworks of faith. They may shake those who rest on those outworks--they do not move him whose soul reposes on the truth itself. He needs no prop or crutches to support his faith. Founded on a Rock, Faith can afford to gaze undismayed at the approaches of Infidelity.

• A medida que los lugares en los que viven los estadounidenses se vuelven cada vez más deprimentes e imposibles, Disneyworld es el lugar al que escapan para rendir culto a la nación en abstracto, una capital de dibujos animados de una república de dibujos animados que consagra las falsedades, las medias verdades y los delirios que apuntalan la cosa blanda en la que se ha convertido el carácter nacional: por ejemplo, que somos una nación de familias; que nos preocupamos por nuestros conciudadanos; que la historia importa; que existe un lugar llamado hogar.

• Playing with guns you revert to a little boy sometimes. But they're not great things to play with, so it's just making them look real. When it comes to shooting guns or using any prop, you've got to make it look like you know what you're doing with them. It's called acting.

• There is a gambling element to being somebody who is going to take on the job of constantly trying to represent and prop up people who might be somewhat shady. That notion is probably part of how they got the rap. But, I have to find the balance of being colorful, being at times despicable, and also being somebody who does believe in something.

• [Ritual] dwells in an invisible reality and gives this reality a vocabulary, props, costume, gesture, scenery. Ritual makes things separate, sets them apart from ordinary affairs and thoughts. Rituals need not be solemn, but they are formalized, stylized, extraordinary, and artificial. In the name of ritual, we can do anything. We can do astonishing acts. In the end, ritual gives us assurance about the unification of things.
